Advice for tenting a Ferris Sweep? (sh.itjust.works)

Hi! I'm going to be building a Ferris Sweep soon. I was curious if anyone has experience with tenting one of these things. It's compatible with splitkb's tenting puck, but having a camera tripod on my desk seems like it would be ridiculously tall, meaning I'd need to adjust my desk and monitor in an unreasonable way. I'd like for my legs to be able to fit under the desk.

I've seen some 3d printed tented cases, does anyone have experience with that?

@no_priority I've seen people recommend Manfrotto pocket tripods, maybe those could work for you?

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
