Proton C Mechanical keyboard with Kailh hot swap sockets

I created a custom handwired keyboard using kailh hot swap sockets and QMK's Proton C. I used the same wiring schematic as the Sick-68, and programmed custom firmware for the Proton C.
I used a dab of superglue to hold sockets in place. I probably could have done a press-fit design, but this ensures none of the sockets will pop out.
M3 threaded brass inserts were heat pressed into the top case.https://amzn.to/2UXOauy
Installed anodized aluminum feet. The case is at 7 degrees anyway, so technically these aren't needed, but they look cool.https://bit.ly/38K7zTu
