The final product and colors can be slightly different from the pictures
Keycaps shown in the renders are for presentation only and are not sold with the keyboard.

Yes, But where is the spacebar?

1 : There is an "invisible spacebar" by the use of the QMK Combo feature.
You hit "space" with your thumb by hitting both 'B' and 'V' keys at the same time ( So the location of where the space bar would be )
One of the advantage of combos is that it allows you to keep the same alpha layout as a standard keyboard and does not change your muscle memory.
You can also have a clicky key-switch on either 'B' or 'V' to have a sound and/or sensory feedback each time you hit the "invisible spacebar"

2 : 2U space bar on the bottom row is also possible with the solderable layout.

Approved :thumb:

PSA to prospective buyers:
Group Buys are inherently risky endeavors. There is an element of risk involved with collecting payment before the item has been produced and resulting uncertainty during manufacturing / subsequent operations. We urge all GB organizers to consider (and document) these risks, and want to make it clear to all who consider purchasing that these risks are present.

If you are unfamiliar with the Group Buy model, please read this primer - Group Buy FAQ / Buying Guidelines (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=77272.0)

This PSA is new and will become standard on all Group Buys moving forward. It is not posted on this GB in isolation and is not singling this organizer out in particular as someone to be wary of.
