Fit a case I got custom made like a glove.
Really good out of the box, setting up what layouts you need when getting the switches soldered!
The bakeneko 65 PCB is extremely nice PCB that uses an ARM processor.
Every unit I have order has varied in some way. Many come bowed, the direction of the bow is not consistent. The solder pads and traces also appear to be lower quality than other PCBs I have soldered/desoldered over the years. The only traces I have ever pulled when desoldering have been on this PCB, and it has happened on 2 occasions.
I have ordered at five of these PCBs over the years as it was the base for a personal one off keyboard, only one arrived flat and otherwise flawless.
Overall build quality and build consistency leave much to be desired, but otherwise functional.
