Ursa - Urchin on Steroids

PCB Preview

I created this design because I like the Urchin and wanted to try something with 34 keys.
This is a strictly wireless-only design, and is only compatible with ZMK / nice!nano. Only Cherry MX switches + Hotswap are suported!

Q: Why is this not just another one?
A: Original Urchin is based of choc switch. They are good but I still wanted to try something with MX keycaps. Hence we are here looking at the new keeyboard Ursa.
