KUSOboard KUSOboard by covah901 with Longan Nano completed.
KBD.news Published June 12, 2021
A Reviung-style monoblock with EVQWGD001 scroll wheel.
Only possible due to all Karlk90 's work getting QMK on the GD32VF103 and Longan Nano.

I had started out wanting to build an Atreus sized board, but then changed my mind midway and decided to go with a Reviung39 style.
The column stagger is modified to fit the size of the author's hands better (large hands).
The layout was designed in FreeCAD then brought into KiCAD.
so I can finally have a design where everything is placed deliberately and not off by .1 mm or something, as I've had to made do with in the past because I find it difficult to make KiCAD do the sort of placement ergo boards require.
