Auryn Engel built a Lofree-style split, using version 3 of his Avocado keyboard, the Corne clone designed via Ergogen already featured earlier:
This is an ergogen based corne clone that I intend to modify and tweak as I descend into the rabbit hole – Auryn.
In V3, the thumb cluster is different, just like the controller part, edge cut, etc.
This time, the caps and switches came from Lofree who offer you a 10% discount by the way (no affiliation), so feel free to use the KBDNEWS coupon code if you like the parts used in this build.
