Are there any split keyboards that are close to this shape? This is the shape I got from Ergopad.
FWIW: u/jamesmnw Has a ton of tiny designs, the bugs, that are sort of like this. Mostly fewer keys, not more, but brilliant. https://github.com/jimmerricks/bugs. I have a Midge. V. cool (For me, at least)

Pretty in pink
The basics are you download the 'gerber' from the github repo and upload it to jlcpcb or another pcb fab (which fab you chose changes which options are available like solder mask color).

Either socket orientation works, but is one "more" correct than the other? TIA
Yeah, it's a gorgeous board, on both sides. https://github.com/tapioki/cephalopoda/blob/main/Images/architeuthis_dux.png

First build!
Yep! You can find the gerbers and the Ergogen config file I used here. I ended up adding some features to Ergogen while designing, so unfortunately the config won't work with current versions of Ergogen.
What are some alternatives?
