this is more of a question than than an issue,

will this design work with kailh choc switches? I'm also curious about going wireless and putting a battery in it but I'm not sure about the clearance of the case

Can be built on choсs. Hole size allows I do not recommend. It won't be pretty. There will be ugly gaps in the columns. And most importantly noisy (no silent switch version). According to the discord, the Kailh are currently developing a silent version of the chokes. As soon as the silent version is available, I plan to make a special version for chocs. I didn't plan to build this wireless keyboard. There is no space for a battery in this design. I think the easiest way is to use xiao nrf52840 and a small battery. You can change the rear support of the mcu in my cover design (move it closer) and form a battery compartment under the 4th column.
