Base Kit is a 150% keyboard designed to put all of those extra unused keys to use. Designed by Taylor at Aeternus.

Base Kit is a 2 piece aluminum design with an exposed sandwich mounted plate. The case is available in black anodized aluminum, and the plate provided will be carbon fiber (most other plate materials are far too flexible for the mounting system and, as such, are not recommended).

- Plate: 1.5mm carbon fiber
- PCB: Soldered, USB-C, ESD protection, QMK and VIA/VIAL compatibility
- Mounting: Sandwich mount (exposed plate edge)

The issue there would be then you limit it to one manu since different places use different row designations.

I wish I had enough Razer Greens for this. I might have to combine them with Gateron Blues and some BOX Navies.
