VOID Ergo S

A handwired split keyboard, running QMK firmware

VOID Ergo S

More renders here

The VOID Ergo S is a 3d printed, handwired, split keyboard with a layout similar to the Iris/Corne/Kyria, running QMK Firmware on Pro Micro controllers. Connection between the two halves of the keyboard is made with an aux cable via serial.

I suggest printing the case using a 0.4 mm nozzle, supports are not needed but recommended for the bottom cases as the ports will print with less imperfections.

The brass inserts can be fixed in the bottom case by heating them and applying pressure with a soldering iron set to about 200-220C.

Handwiring guide

I've also put together a pretty visual handwiring guide for the VOID9, that you can browse over here.

QMK Vial Fork

A QMK Vial fork can be found here.

Most features are disabled in order for the firmware to fit on the atmega32u4 present on the Pro Micro controllers, but if you want to tinker around with different features or if you're using a different MCU you can enable/disable them to suit your own needs by editing the rules.mk file in the vial keymap folder.

The web version of Vial is available at vial.rocks; it runs in supported browsers (Chrome, Edge and Opera) without requiring an installation.

QMK Fork

A fork containing the QMK config files can be found here. Edit them to suit your own needs and build the firmware following the QMK docs.

If you plan on using the VIA configurator dont forget to download the json definitions file linked in this repository.
