Figured I should share my latest Helix build. I have enough boards to make 5 more of these but it still comes out to about $120 per keeb. Wireless is expensive. Please feel free to ask me any questions. I soldered it for for RGB lighting as well but haven't had a chance to test them yet since ZMK doesn't have proper RGB support. These are built using Nice!Nanos.
My next build will be the same as this but with Sunset switches and smokey translucent keycaps.
Nice! I'm doing a transparent Ergodone build, but I didn't find any transparent keycaps that I liked all that much, so that's the only part that isn't transparent.
How are the robins? I'm looking to put a new board together tomorrow hopefully for another work board and am probably going to go with those. I WFH so loud clicky isn't an issue.
I love the look!
Very nice. Where did you get the caps and switches? Did you design the board? Also, is it compatible with other controllers like pro micro?
The caps are from aliexpress and the switches from boardsource.xyz
I didn't design the board, just uploaded the Gerber files to JLCPCB.

It is compatible with pro micro! I have built several wired versions using those.
What mouse is that? It looks pretty awesome! And I love the idea of the low profile board!
