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

No excessive posting/"shilling" for commercial purposes. Vendors are permitted to promote their products/services but keep it to a minimum and use the [vendor] flair. Posts that appear to be marketing without being transparent about it will be removed.

My growing collection of ergo keebs.

Front and center: hand-wired BastardKB TBK Mini, left above is my Redox left half only for gaming (also hand-wired) and top left built from leftovers is the Teensy StreamDeck.

True! Instead of one huge ass keyboard I now have 15 very small ones on my desk 🤓

Sometimes it feels a bit like Pokemon - gotta catch 'em all ;) Or in my case, build 'em all :D

EDIT: I would love to build a small split wireless low profile keeb like the Corne or similar, however I keep putting off my second hand-wired per-key-RGB TBK Mini which will be my main... if I ever get it done XD

Exactly! Especially once I started designing my own keeb, I now have six different versions of it lying around with different spacings and switches and caps and cases... Considering at least two additional versions at the moment 🙈
