Egradman shared his ynot, allegedly based on the Corne. :)

I'm happy to have just finished my first completely custom build! This is a 38 key board based on a Corne. I've added a horizontal scroll wheel to each side, as well as a trackpoint. It runs ZMK, so it's wireless. I love wireless – egradman.

Specs

  • 36 keys (5x3+3)
  • Choc
  • Panasonic EVQWGD001 roller encoder
  • wireless via nice!nano
  • R61 trackpoint harvested from a Lenovo Thinkpad T410
