alright. on the pictures i don't see too much, but from the description i assume, the pcb houses a usb-connector, a power converter and the mcu, whose gpios are just routed to the pins?
i could do this, but it will be just functional, not pretty or sure to work in any environment (i could not guarantee for esd safety, or emi specifications..)

The link is a PCB that I had done years ago, that is my account on Oshpark.  Another GH member did the Kicad work for me, by the name of Moz if memory is correct. I am not looking to sell it, unless there is interest for a GB, but I doubt it. I do plan to make the design public on Oshpark.

I'm doing everything I can to make this set a reality. And interacting here and showing your interest helps enormously!
Thank you for that, guys.

I know this has been postponed, but I would love a pink 1u "B" in R1, like you've got for R4, for split backspace support.
If it's too much for the base, maybe there's an option to add it in the novelty design.

I believe that's something I can offer! I have a few other suggestions in the backlog, though.

Small Update!

Due to various reasons, we are going to remove the deskmats from the gb. Sorry for this!
