Have been working my way through FlatFootFox’s Let’s Design a Keyboard with Ergogen tutorial – this is just the first iteration
- number of keys of a Corne, aesthetics of Splaytaroid, less aggressive splay than A. dux
- next big challenge is dealing with the firmware
- deciding whether I want to keep it split or go monoblock (Reviung41 or Splaytaroid)
- following iterations with work with implementing the fancy features – switch plate, bottom plate, case of some sort, RGB, OLED

Generating custom boards is a thing?!

It is. The rabbit hole is deeeep.

Ergogen is so good 👌 Writing the firmware is surprisingly easy thanks to zmk / qmk :) Fingers crossed for the future work!

so far I’m kinda in shock at how easy the whole process has been going – was expecting a lot more issues along the way

Gosh, it looks like you have some spare PCBs.

peace of mind when you bork up your soldering

Is it also 4° + 4° splay?
cerement@slrpnk.net · 2 pts · 2y
0° + 8° + 4° + 4° + 0° (outside to inside)

Oh, right I completely missed that! Yeah splaytoraid only has 4+4 on ring and pinky

If you haven't decided yet, I find ZMK is a breeze to get the running

already have one half working with QMK – still have to solder the second half before I can test it and then test the serial connection
