ErgoMechKeyboards
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

You can bodge a power switch onto it, or use something like my batt!pack.
Nice! has information on how to get the nice!view working on a board that has OLED support. Only requires one bodge wire. Broom made NiceHatHarry to get a nice!view onto their boards that don't have OLED support already.
That looks like it would be perfect, but I'm in Australia and I don't think I can justify $20 shipping for a 50c board. Bodge it is!
I absolutely agree. there is someone selling the old version of etsy, so that might be a cheaper option. You could also have the old version fabricated yourself - that's probably the cheapest option (besides bodges).
Oh that's super neat
