  You genuinely blew my mind, I am hear a year and all I did was spend money 
  My next build will make my own case!
  You just taught me how.
context: About 4 years ago I wanted a 75% keyboard but with space between the arrow and F keys. This kind of layout wasn't available back then, so I had to build my own custom layout. It took around 60 hours of planning and building it and while I had fun building it, it's so much nicer to see commercial high quality 75% keyboard with this layout on the market.
  Now I'm wondering if I should buy a GMMK Pro or build something unique once again. Maybe both...
  Edit (forgot specs): 
  Keyboard specs: 
  Case: Hand build. Made out of corian
  Switches: Box Navy
  PCB: 75% programmable with the compact layout. Soldering required jumper wires. 
  Plate: Steel. Cut from old broken keyboard. >
  
  Zoom 75 gb soon >
  
  Fr? >
  
  Not quite soon, latest info on their discord is that it possibly starts some time in March (no concrete dates or timeframe), with new info on the board coming out some time this week since Chinese New Year finally ended >
  
  i took a look at the renders and what not but it kinda looks like a 250-300$ range even for a zoom lineup >
  
  They still haven’t announced prices yet, but yeah, that’s what people have been guessing >
  
  I am incredibly impressed, this looks super  cool.. would love to see a build log of it.
  ​
  Did you do a custom pcb/plate and build the case yourself? details! >
  
  The case case was 100% hand made out of corian.
  The plate was taken from a full layout keyboard and cut to the desired layout. 
  The PCB is a compact 75% layout, so I had to use jumper wires for the F keys, the right column and the arrow keys.   
  The most interesting part of the keyboard is the modifications. I think the mods I made deserve a separate post because I think it's a game changer and nobody has ever done something similar. 
  Hint: is kinda similar to my ball bearing mod, but better. >
  
  Didn't know about this. Thanks m8 >
  
  Dam this basically what a Piggy 75 would look like lol. >
  
  Chonker keyboard
  Chonker keyboard >
  
  I love the equal parts of jank (huge spacing to accommodate pcbs i m guessing) and refinement, wrapped up as one classy package. >
  
  Looks nice and chonkyyyyyyyyy! If it is possible, are you able to show the photo of the "pcb"? >
  
  It's a  chonky boy with a big forehead, but still more compact than TKL length-wise. 
  Unfortunately I don't have the keyboard with me right now because I recently moved, but I can't wait to get it back. >
  
  I have the same keycap set, nice. I switched the yellow suit key for a yellow enter though, the shoes/suit/hat keycaps have very strong “m’lady”  vibes. >
  
  This is fantastic! You know it's time to run an Interest Check now right? >
  
  That is a nice homebuilt keyboard, I sure do like it. >
  
  interesting layout! and yes all keebs are more affordable in a way that it’s easier to start with the hobby. even under $100 >
  
  Honestly, this looks better than 75%s that I see every day 🚬 >
  
  Thanks :) Feels awesome too! Corian is pretty amazing material for mechanical keyboards IMO. It's like a stiffer acrylic. Although it's not as polished as something that comes from a factory, because back then I didn't have any tools other than a handsaw and a soldering iron. >
  
  You sawed it it yourself?! :000 >
  
  Yeah... 100% hand tools. There are some small imperfections but luckily my paintjob is better than my sawing skills, so there not that noticeable.
