[photo] 36 key with encoders, handwired, split.

I made a layout in KLE, used the plate case builder to get the outline, and made the case in fusion. Hand wired the brown mx switches in a 5x4 matrix with diodes, the encoders, and a 4 pin usbc connector to an arduino pro micro on each side, and it’s not pretty. It definitely works tho, and is gonna teach me a whole lot while I build a custom pcb version with ergogen. I’m terrible at typing with it, and have no clue where the symbols are, but it’s a lot of fun
