…to go with my hand-wired keyboard (or any keyboard). Numpad is “Masonite” hardboard I cut myself and painted with “textured” spray paint. I had the keyboard layout cut from aluminum by Xometry a few months back.

There’s a contingent of keyboard people who love their “southpaw” numpads. I am not sure I find the ergonomic arguments personally compelling (moving around helps me more than finding one “perfect” neutral position), but I kind of like the idea of data entry and mouse usage at the same time. For instance, it’s nice to be able to plug in CAD dimensions without moving away from the mouse. I may actually move this one over to the right of my mouse, though; time will tell.
