grommet rubber mount

top options (2 will be produced)

to do:
- sound test
- build streams
- anodizing is in process
- working on carrying case for shipping
- finalize colors
- proto plates in pom, cf, poly
- sale format

We're producing as much as possible in USA. We probably will outsource plates for this board because it was not cost effective on Palmetto to CNC them ourselves.

We will have several dozen early access units of this board available while we determine the sale method for a larger quantity. Join our discord for more info!

Saw this board (and it's variants) at the SC meetup last month as well as where they're manufactured.  Amazing quality, and if you're into full size this is the board to get!!
