Lately I've also been working on another small 30 key tented #ErgoMechKeyboad design, but with a single flexible PCB using 7mm wide swan-neck bends. The physical design is heavily inspired by https://github.com/StephanMoeller/Leonardo-KeycapRio/ and one of their more rectangular tented case ideas in particular.
I'm calling https://codeberg.org/peterjc/pico-keyboards/src/branch/main/warped30 the Wee Bit Warped (30 keys).
I define the layout in #Ergogen's YAML format (using a little Python scripting to write out the straight-line traces round the bendy bits), then run the KiCad round-traces plugin to smooth them. The work-in-progress case is again procedural CAD using #Build123d in Python, and again will take me far longer than the PCB work did.
