Konstantin's Myrmidex is a hotswappable split ergo keyboard with two rotary encoders. The layout resembles that of the Kyria but this one features an extra outer key and comes without displays.

It supports Pro Micro compatible controllers and has footprints for power switch and battery.

I picked somewhat small components, so it is not that easy to solder without some kind of magnifier – hexagramg.
