¶ Paw
Paw is a arrow key macropad designed by dingusxmcgee and Taylor of Aeternus. It featured a polycarbonate case, brass plate and brass weight. The pcb used ZMK and utilized bluetooth connectivity with a small battery as well as onboard USB C. GB Packaging also included a fun auth card created by rose.

¶ History
The idea for the macropad arose between Taylor and dingus when discussing the loss of dedicated arrow keys while using a 40% board and the idea that a wireless one would allow non 40% users to 'bring arrow keys with them anywhere' and not have to say 'but muh arrow keys' when confronted with using smaller keyboards.
And thus, Paw was born.
¶ Availability
One GB was organized in 2020(?) by Aeternus.
During the GB the PCBs had an issue with the RGB due to a pcb design issue, customers were refunded $5 as compensation.
The GB units also had the option of including a special arrow cluster artisan made by Pseudoku, available in multiple colorways. There was a special 'easter egg' on the bottom of each artisan, the text 'muh arrow keys'.
