59% - or - not quite a 60% keyboard

After typing on my Pure for a couple of years I came to realize there are some things I just wanted to change.  I was going to make those some of those changes in the GH60, but, well... moving on.  I sort of tried the 40% layout, but it just had too many function/layer changes for everyday use - particularly when it came to passwords.  So, after some tinkering, I made my own thing.  So far I can just start typing on it without really having to make any changes at all.  Function keys are in easy to hit places for me, and I have still have dedicated arrow keys. 

Here we are, getting read to start assembly.

Moving along, MCU checked out, time to install some Greens.  That's 3mm acrylic.

Switches installed, I ran out of the aluminum bits for the frame, so it's not quite done.

...and keycaps (WASD customs).  I might eventually go all blanks, but I thought I might need some hints to get started, especially with the bottom row, and the tab/Q caps/A.  Tab and caps are on the momentary function layer, as are the F-keys, home/end/pgup/pgdn, etc.

Here are some pretty colors with the indicator LED under the A/caps key:

Slightly better lighting?

I should have taken some pictures next to the Pure, but I forgot, and my pictures are terrible anyway, but here it is next to the Race.

Anyway, I'm pretty excited about it :D

So, I'd like to take a minute here, before I run off and go play on 10fastfingers for a while... I'd like to say thank you to jdcarpe, for making me a plate design a year or more ago... and swill, for the new online tool, so I could re-check the layout.  Hasu, for the firmware that I'm using, and everyone else for the inspiration.  Thanks Geekhack!
