CU40 / CU7 / CU21

Following the success of CU65 and CU80, new mechanical keyboard kits are being considered: CU40 (40% layout), CU7 (macro pad with rotary encoder), and CU21 (numpad). All ensure QMK compatibility, hot-swap sockets, and high-profile cases. User feedback is sought for upcoming developments.
