Interesting project. I've been wondering about contoured keywells for some time, especially after my finger joints started hurting after long typing sessions. I regularly switch between keyboards now to relieve the repetitive stress on each finger, which works quite well. Now might be the time to get a more ergonomic keyboard, though.
Really nice project. We definitely need more wireless split options that are shaped to fit the hands. I only wish it had hot-swap switches or a non low profile option.
A non-low-profile keyboard would need to be designed differently, to avoid the keys colliding (due to the curving). It's probably not feasible as an option, that would be an entirely new design.

I agree about hot-swap, but I'm not sure if hot-swap exists on the market for low-profile switches. A non-low-profile keyboard would need to be designed differently, to avoid the keys colliding (due to the curving). It's probably not feasible as an option, that would be an entirely new design.

That makes sense.
