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.

    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.

        Do you mean Sunsets? because that is what I have in all 3 of my choc builds and outside of a bit of wobble, they feel so good.

        I picked up a set of Reds and Robins and wasn’t sure which to use for which. I think I am settled on the Robins for the 36 key Sweep variant and then Reds for my A.Dux if I can ever get the firmware ported to Vial. That’s gonna be a long weekend project I think.

            Ha, naw you’re good. I am sufficiently hungover as well. I actually just got my Sweep36 together without much headache. Gonna take a break and then get the keymap built since I used a custom map based on Miryoku and another one one I forget the name and my write-up was on the ergo sub that is still blacked out so I can’t get to it. I need to figure out how to import my keymaps inestead of building them from scratch each time.

            After that I will post it. The Robins and custom dyed pink MBK caps are sick looking together.
