finally got bad enough that it needs fixing, and today i could use a fiddly project to occupy my brain

sadly i forgot that this design has the components mounted on the bottom of the PCB which means desoldering all the switches, so ten minutes was a very unrealistic estimate

Ergodox Infinity PCB and plate with switches still mounted. I'm in the process of desoldering, and there's a solder iron station, LED work light, wire strippers/snips, tweezers with solder wick, and a tomato sauce trash can also in frame
