Tried out tenting for the first time with my headphone amp (lemmy.sdf.org)

(sorry for poor image quality)

I wanted to create a new keyboard with tenting since I heard that its more comfortable and ergonomic. I originally tried stacking two phones in the middle but it was too short, and then thought "why not use my headphone amp"?

Using approximate measurements with a nearby measuring tape, the tenting angle is about 26 degrees which I think is close enough to the 30 degrees I wanted to know how nice it'd be.

The keyboard is my first custom mechanical keyboard, a Corne with Aqua Kings, and the amp is a Monolith Liquid Spark.

Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards

Rules

Keep it ergo

Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)

i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²

¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid
