Decided to go all out on this one and build a keyboard by hand. Soldering experience was rough, soldered some parts to the wrong side and broke a trace trying to remove it. Some thin copper and a lot of solder managed to salvage the board though.

Very nice soft keyboard that works well as a programming keyboard with a full keypad mapped to a dedicated layer.

The case was printed in 3D resin to allow the rgb glow to shine through. Using it as a bluetooth keyboard though means the lights don’t get to shine too often.
