Introducing the FE round of Serendipity. Designed by Olivia and Dededecline. 

Serendipity is Dededecline's answer to designing a "40%" keyboard with the visual appeal and keyset compatibility of larger boards, without compromising a true 40% core layout. The big mod 14u layout is similar to a small mod 12.75u or 13u layout functionally. The inclusion of the F-row allows for a standard R1 escape key, which means that standard accents (escape, enter, spacebar) are all available to use on Serendipity. The macro column and badge add for fun flair and customizability. The case design is "seamless" and "screwless", utilizing Geonworks' 60% feet to hide the case screws. The burger mounting allows for a muted, pleasant sound, and the side profiles encourage two-tone case options.

          Cerakote Quality Standards and Expectations: Cerakote is a ceramic coating, and has a very unique texture (like a ceramic). We do all the Cerakote in house, and as much as we would love for every board to be perfect, no kit can be 100% flawless due to coating process.

          There may be small grains under the surface of the cerakote and the internal surfaces may be more coarse than external surfaces.
