70 Key Ergonomic Keyboard

Here is another keyboard layout that I wanted to try. The keyboard has 70 keys, all are 1u. The layout is ergonomic with columnar staggering. My main goal was to create a unibody keyboard that had a layout more like a split keyboard. The keyboard was designed using the same method as some of my other projects. I started with the layout in Keyboard Layout Editor, copied the data into a plate generator and imported the plate dimensions into Fusion360 as a DXF file. This keyboard is not a direct recreation of any particular keyboard or keyboard layout. All of the pieces can be printed on a small 3D printer. The only piece that may require supports is BottomRight. It has an overhang at the recessed USBC port.
