[Looking for a PCB designer] I知 trying to build a custom keyboard

[Walshware]

I am trying to build a custom keyboard but designing a pcb is too much for me! I am trying to make a 65% with rgb per switch. I was thinking hot swap too for the build being a bit easier. I was hoping for an opinion on this, I heard it wasn稚 very reliable? Hoping to hear back I would love to have one completed in a couple weeks

Could you link the layout or something for reference or is it just a normal 65% with no extra layout options?. By the way designing a decent pcb is not that difficult, but a good one takes several iterations before it's perfect. I'll try and make a basic one with hotswap if you want.

I have made some pcbs for myself. you can have a look at PCB.

This is what I decided on, let me know any opinions on that too

Are we allowed to pay for the service? So I can buy a well made and completed

There are several out here that do sell services like designing pcbs and cases. If you want, you can look it up on reddit and here. I just do it for the fun, I will work on it in my free time and have something ready in a day or two. The layout looks fine. Cheers.

I really appreciate that, I have tried and twice I致e been ghosted right after we fleshed out the details. At least I didn稚 pay yet! I知 just at the point where I really just want the pcb completed because it痴 taken a month because the communication was slow and eventually non existent.

Sure, I was in the process of making my own 60 pcb, will be working on this alongside that.

If it is something you only do for yourself and change the left ctrl and fn to 1.25units maybe you can find an already made pcb

I appreciate that! And I壇 rather have a bigger sized control like I do now; I need it to be a bit bigger for my pinkie to be able to find it lol
