Rocky Elbert - A Budget, Through-Hole 45% Keyboard

Hi Geekhack members! I'm Rocky. I'm starting a new store called Rocky Keebs. The first product that'll be sold on the site is going to be the Rocky Elbert, which is named after Mount Elbert in the Rockies. It’s an affordable 45% keyboard that I think will make transitioning to smaller keyboards easier for many people. You can join the Rocky Keebs Discord server for more convenient updates.
