Pros

  • Symmetric column-staggered layout
  • Hands sit at a natural angle, like an Alice layout
  • Inexpensive way to practice standard keyboard soldering
  • Extension keys support both 1.25U and 1U

Cons

  • Not a finished product; soldering and PC setup are required
  • Pro Micro, switches, diodes and other parts must be bought separately
  • Uses key sockets, so switches are not clearly hot-swappable
