Will this work with holtites? (To make the switches and LEDs hotswapable).

If needed I can send some of each for you to test them in the PCB. :)

Man, i love this. Have been looking for an mx custom for a while - this looks so good. Which vendor is it going to go through? or will it be on GH?

I hear you.  :(

Tbf, in short, most of the delay had been waiting on another vendor.  There has been many delays in projects that would've been ahead of this ultimately leading to me finding someone else.  I wish I had done so sooner, but you live and you learn.  It's a bit of a meme phrase, but it really is coming soon.

Nah m8, I simply do not have the time or resources to run a large gb.  This will be done through a community vendor.  Specifics will be announced asap.

It will be a more normal weight I just haven't done updated renders.  Next update design wise will be a prototype but I will have vendor/gb dates/pricing done before that.  Once we have quotes back, all that info will be posted.

Love the layout. My gripe with 75% has always been how cluttered the keys seems to be, especially the function row.

Any idea when the gb might be?

I don't know if you saw this, but I posted it before. Will this support holtites? I could send you samples to see if the PCB will support it.

Would like this to be my first custom build.
In for 1.

What firmware will the PCB use?
Will it be QMK compatible?
