January drop customer here. Got my kit Saturday evening and had it together by Sunday. Took maybe 3-4 hours. It came with SMD diodes only. I have done a lot of through-hole rework, but this was my first attempt at SMD work. It wasn't terrible, but wasn't much fun, either.
I'm still experimenting with layouts, but I think I'm close to something that will work for me.
The only issue I'm having is that the thumb keys (SX0:2 & SX0:3, I think) are prone to sticking due to the longer key caps. Has anyone solved this? It seems like it would be a fairly common issue.
ieureI haven't had an issue with any of the keys sticking. I think there may be some options for keeping the keycaps level, but I haven't actually bothered to look into them.
