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.

    Congratulations! Was it difficult to do? What are those keycaps and which keyboard layout is this?

        I suspect the homerow is still ARST… so I wonder.

        Colemak has two columns on the digit finger, this layout here however seems to have two columns on the pinkie finger, putting more stess to them?

        Or are the keys shifted so the homerow here is VARS, but that doesn’t seem to make sense as the Colemak layout has been designed with the most common keys at the homerow… also the staggering would be weird then.

        Any insights here?

          This was a fatal flaw that I didn’t realize until I had ordered the PCB. You’re right, the pinky has two columns, which isn’t as bad as you’d expect.

          I still home row on asrt, which I’m really starting to enjoy. I need homing nubs on the keys and I tend to miss click on the top pinky
