Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards

Rules

Keep it ergo

Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)

i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²

¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

I have leftovers key-caps, but unfortunately no leftover switches.

Is it a hot swappable switch? If it is, pop it out and take it apart, you'll need to push the stems from the holes but once it's apart it's fairly trivial to do. If it is not hot swappable you can probably pry it apart but it will be considerably harder.
