I was inspired by the LZ ErGO and made a quick CAD design of what could be done with a VE.A pcb.  A split acrylic VE.A case is quite difficult to design when accounting for kerf. Extremely annoying to get the two halves fit together nicely as the laser cutting machine slows down around corners and cuts a wider line.

Is there a timeline on shipping, since this is b.stock I assume you have them on hand. No rush just curious so I can prepare the supplies I need to put it together.

Very cool, glad to help :)

Big thanks! I couldn't just stand missing out and got in on B-Stock. As a result I may end up selling ZZ96 GB spot.

Got mine today and was so hyped to start building it, got everything ready then realized that the switches were still with zeal's gb :( rip my heart.

However when I was testing my LED's I did notice that none of the "lock" LED's would light up, and neither would the top two macro keys? Everything else seems to be fine though!

I don't know what's up with the macro keys, but the lock light LEDs all need resistors added.

Wish I had some resistors then :/ guess I got time to order some though.

Most Winkeyless style board able to run ps2avr support NKRO with PS2 and 6KRO with USB. At what point have you ever needed more than 6KRO?

I am trying to learn a bit Stenography on a modern keyboard, still don't know if any chord will exceed 6 keys.
So that means if I can convert the VE.A back to PS/2 with an adapter, there can be NKRO? However, my main computer is a laptop: without any PS/2 connection.

To be exact, they wrote "6+1 Key rollover" on their website:

Why not get a Planck for stenography purposes?

1+6RKO is that one +'s keyboard for the one plus 2?  T_T

WAT?

Anyway, @menuhin boards running ps2avrGB should support NKRO over PS/2 but with a laptop, something like a Soarer's converter might be needed to retain the NKRO. Like MajorKoos suggested, plancks seem to be popular with people doing stenography.

I agree that a Planck can serve better the purpose despite the NKRO through USB problem / question remains, even for Planck.

I can foresee that I'm probably using VE.A as my main board, or some of the 75%+ board. Being able to use these keyboards also for Stenography can probably give me flexibility.
