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

No Spam

No excessive posting/"shilling" for commercial purposes. Vendors are permitted to promote their products/services but keep it to a minimum and use the [vendor] flair. Posts that appear to be marketing without being transparent about it will be removed.

No Buy/Sell/Trade

Instead of the shiny end-result I usually post for Wylderbuilds, I thought I'd post a build near the finish line. It's a dual trackball 3x6 Dactyl Manuform. The case is printed in black PETG and I'm using custom breakouts for Pi Pico controllers along with flexible PCBs on the columns (from The Big Skree,https://skree.us)

The trackball sensors are PMW3360s. I have a guide for setting them up with QMK here:
