From the project
ABNT2-based 70% keyboard, with a sandwich case and display stand
An open-source, QMK-compatible, ABNT2-based 70% keyboard, focusing in a smaller footprint while retaining all the functions found on a TKL (Del and arrow keys doubling as the navigational cluster)
Note: this photo is of an early prototype of the case. The uploaded files has been updated to require less total area and WILL look slighty different than shown (the overall dimensions remain the same).
