Reply to comment by FastBanana27 in Oh the Pain by 0TTIM0

I saw a comment like 2 years ago that basically srated thay the Pain27 is sort of a half meme but also have demo piece on how powerful QMK can be. Its basically "How far can we go?"

I think they are fun in concept but reading these last few posts, some people seem to actually use them as a daily driver.

I personally dig the 40% Club and like seeing what people do with small form factors but for me personally, at least, small boards really only start to excel once you enter the split, column stagger space. I do still like seeing all the smaller boards like QAZes and such though. They are cute lol.

would send you a free cable but it looks like you wouldn't have enough space for it.

I personally prefer smaller boards. Started with a Keychron K4, then downsized to a Hunstman mini. I've ordered the new Tofu60 2.0. I'm now looking at 40% ortho split boards. Might build my wife a custom TKL. Best thing about it is I don't even type on a daily basis, and I only recently started gaming on kbm.

Very nice collection. I've just ordered my first custom board, and I already have a couple of other boards I would like to build on. This is a deep and expensive rabbit hole!!

Great looking board!

If you have a few moments could you pull some measurements of the 3u cluster? Trying to put a metal badge there but mine hasn't shipped yet.

Measurements would need to be taken preferably with a digital caliper. I would need the length, width, depth, and fillet radii (corner radius).
