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

Learned a lot, not completely satisfied with the turnout, but I'll have more ammo for the next build.

Nice!Nano V2 using ZMK firmware, BLE, and custom PCB made with ergogen, kicad, and purchased thru JLPCB. Going to print a case and learn the keyboard layout.

As someone from outside the ergonomic keyboard community that just came across this via /everything; I've always wondered how you work around the missing keys in a keyboard like this. Say, you want to type the name "Emmy". What key combination do you press for that, seeing as the e, m and y are missing

Not sure what layout OP is going for, but the Miryoku layout features lots of the usual ways people go to fit a full keymap (and more) into such small keebs :)
