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

Hi there, I was wondering what size hole you need for a 5 way nav switch. For hand soldering that is. NOT for a pcb.

It doesn't seem to have a lip, and the official docs have it at 10*10mm, but that would just fall through.

Do I have to have individual holes for the contacts? Is it even possible to use outside of a pcb? Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for the help.

It is possible to have this work as a mouse controller?
