I call this one Daisy ;) This set went to a user in Alabama. Units also shipped to Poland and Eureka CA. So hype for more feedback from early users! Current build queue is a couple weeks long, feel free to jump in if you want one!

Svalboard is my Datahand style small-volume production keyboard – I build every one by hand here in Pacifica, CA.

Learn more at [www.svalboard.com] and come check out the Datahand/Svalboard/lalboard discord https://discord.gg/kqNhKjxca where we geek out about this stuff!

    We have a longtime DH user on the Discord who spent the past year on charachorder. He’s giving it up – reliability is awful with their poorly thought out hardware, the sticks fail super fast – I think he went through like half a dozen units in a year :wide-eyes:

    He liked it otherwise, but found the speed promises didn’t really hold true, especially as a SWE. DH/Svalboard/lal typing is truly superb.

      that would make sense. i have had some issues too, only had to send one unit back though, which was why I think this may be better. i mostly use mine for some games and a macropad basically. i like the idea but am wondering about the long term reliability.
