They took a bit of a detour, but the MNT Pocket Reform Hex keyboard PCBs finally arrived!
I did some test-fitting and it looks really cool. In the second pic there's two paper stencils that I'll be sending along to @liaizon for test assembly 🙂

a very helpful @TinaBelmont helped @liaizon and me get set up with the Reflow Oven at @xHain_hackspace today so we're finally assembling a prototype of this pocket reform hex keyboard mod!

did a little clean up on the board today and managed to flash the unedited firmware! and @mntmn showed me how to run some demo rgb code so we could test the LEDs since the firmware needs to be adjusted for the lack of keys. currently don't have the enter key programmed on this layout so couldn't turn it on normally.
thanks to @s_ol for making this whole thing and @TinaBelmont @ @xHain_hackspace for showing us the reflow oven and letting us use it much past normal closing time

@liaizon @mntmn @s_ol @TinaBelmont @xHain_hackspace These look great. I'm really looking forward to seeing this in the enclosure.
