I hate Razer software and I have the QMK firmware on my other keyboards and love it. I want to get QMK on my Orbweaver, is the PCB layout public to order mine?

Thanks in advance. And great job guys.

I have a couple of spare Prototypes for sale here - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/267100736761

I'm planning to produce more at some point but busy with some other things at the moment.

Many thanks.  I'll get them packed up and sent out early this coming week. Shout if you need any help with them.

If you do I'd be interested. really love my Orbweaver but it's getting old and could do with an overhaul

Thank you so much for this in-depth guide! I ended up following along and making my own handwired orbweaver. Goodbye Razer Synapse, hello USB-C and QMK.

Notes from my attempt:

* Mine was a non-Chroma which had a 12-pin ribbon cable, luckily the pinout was nearly identical.
I just slotted in my 12-pin ribbon cable into the 18-pin breakout board from the 18th pin side and counted down. Ground was pin 7 and 3v was pin 8. Pins 6 through 1 went unused.
* For the breadboard I ended up finding this one on amazon that had a tiny footprint and the right amount of pins.
* Also instead of an RP2040, I used a RP2040zero which also had a smaller footprint.
* Whatever JST connector was used for the thumb assembly I could not find a male counterpart for, so I had to solder each of the tiny cables into the breadboard mentioned above.
