Ooohwee! I'm undecided on if I wanna go with a Boardwalk, a Lumberjack or just a Solder BM60ec, and this is making me lean towards the BW...
I've been pouring over the big Imgur Layout list for it, and I was wondering if you have any shots of this board with any of the other layouts available? And how are you liking the feel/sound of the BBox with this PCB? Especially as I haven't used an Ortho yet, so I'm kinda nervous the transition wont be my thing.

Hey!
Heres the only other layout I made the other day. Tbh, im getting rid of it because I didn't like the layout. You absolutely need an Ergo layout to get the most out of this PCB or if you can settle for 1.5u blanks, you'll need those too. The many layouts are nice, but a tough Ortho board to use. I'd look into getting a Planck either through hole kit if you like to solder or the one available on Drop. About the same price and much easier to resell if it's not your thing. As for the case, not much to write home about, it matches the keycaps so well, ill be building a DZ60 in here soon, but I got it during the GB for $20, so worth it for me.

udawordOkay solid, thanks a ton for this.
And very interesting, so first off by going full ergo with the boardwalk, do you mean using a vertical center column section, ortho alphanum, 1.5u side mods? If so I'd definitely most likely go that route anyway, in some form or another. I think a version of that layout & keep the arrow cluster would be perfect. Maybe work in some kinda tsangan style bar section if possible. I definitely prefer a solder board, so I'm good there & might have some extra millmaxes by then anyhow if I want to stick to certain aspects of a layout.
I honestly only grabbed the Bbox as I've been pissed about missing the atomic purple version when I joined KAT Cyberspace, and I really just bought it on impulse with no real plan for it yet, other than a couple keysets. I have the Camo D60lite coming eventually, and dont really need another 65% - so this definitely has me leaning towards some kinda hybrid 'split'-ergo situation with the boardwalk to mix it up. I really love the open components look of the Lumberjack and can get a pcb for one right now, but I think I'd rather have the center section of keys.
Im drooling over both of your builds with the board though.

*Help* Screw in stabilizers not fitting in Dropshift V2 keyboard
I'm trying to build a mechanical keyboard with screw in stabilizers, I've build some mechanical keyboards with click-in stabilizers, never with screw in. Somehow one of the pins of the metal top-part collides with the screw in stabilizer of the numpad "enter key". I already tried grinding of a bit of the pin that collides with the stabilizer, but unfortunately I can't make it fit/close properly. You can see that the pin of the toppart leaves a mark on the bottompart of the stabilizer, see picture 2. What am I missing? Using Durock V2 in a Dropshift fullsize V2. See pictures below, thanks in advance!

Want to build a Clicky Mech Keyboard. Where to begin?
Hello all. Am brand new to the idea of building my own keyboard. Have not a clue where to begin this process. I am a Sim Game enthusiast. American Truck Sim, DCS Flight Sim and goes from there. Need some real help on where to start for making my own Full Size, Clickey Mechanical KB. I want each key to have its own backlighting. Are there keys that are better than others for this? Is there a great spot on site for a person who has never even taken a keyboard apart? Let alone fixed or built one? I would like it to fit my theme of Red and Black. Yet maybe have the option of changing things up a bit. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all kindly, Durazell

Does the ALT v2 PCBA support USB-C e-marked cables?
Currently my ALT v1 does not work with e-marked USB-C cables. I was wondering if the v2 PCBA does support these types of cables (thunderbolt 4 cable for example)?
