[IC] Helix, an ortho, split, per key RGB board

[Woovie]

Greetings,

Recently I found a board I really liked but it was a group buy that had already come and gone, and from what I could tell, Japan only. I decided I wanted to have one of these myself, and also that perhaps others might too, so here I am. This board is called Helix, it was designed by pluis9 https://twitter.com/pluis9

Here's the store from the seller, you can see the prices in Japanese Yen: https://yushakobo.jp/shop/helix-keyboard-kit/

I'd like to get similar pricing for US buyers, so it's actually extremely affordable (**Sub 50$ for a full acrylic kit!**)(two kits for 1 board). I cannot promise I'll meet this goal, but I'm going to try my best to do so! This will be sold via dogbone.design, which is not live yet, but will be a store front for keyboard components.

Thank you for reading! If you would like to contact me, message jordan at dogbone.design via email.

The keyboard looks nice, but from a programmer's perspective is missing a row and a column.
