Revision 1 kits arriving soon!

Thank you to everyone who purchased kits and provided feedback!

Revision 1 PCBs are in production and should arrive soon. After the new PCBs arrive I'll put together a complete kit to verify no bugs got introduced. After that, if everything looks good, I'll update the inventory and they'll be available again.

PCB Updates:
Larger PCB to Case mounting holes. In a couple of cases the mounting holes were very tight when mounting the PCB to the case. When this happened, the case had a tendency to warp more expected. The new larger holes will allow the PCB to "float" a little more and allow the case to expand and contract without warping. (Big thank you to builder, WW, for being vocal and helping me track this down.)

Left side screw near the FFC was moved down about 2.5mm. This will allow more clearance between that screw and the FFC. Although I've never received a report of a bad cable I will continue to revise the design to keep everything strong.

The silkscreen for the mouse micro switches was updated to help avoid confusion. I received numerous questions about the direction that the switches should be oriented. Hopefully, this new text along with an arrow pointing in the proper direction helps clear up any confusion there while assembling the kit.

Case Updates:
Moved the screw hole near the previously mentioned FFC to line up with the new PCB.

Minor tweak to the scroll wheel cutout so it's slightly smaller and more form fitting.

Magnets! Click. The garage lids now snap shut with magnets to provide additional protection. It has been very satisfying to fiddle with the new garage lid and feel it tightly snap shut on its own. click, click, click.
