I asked about UHK support on Reddit and the layouts have been already added today…
See https://thockfactory.com
Perhaps also worth noting in the docs

I’m definitely keeping my eye on this. I hope they add some XDA or KAM options. Awesome that they can do full images! Looks like Yuzu actually has some competition now…
Thanks for letting us know!
I can add Thockfactory to the https://ultimatehackingkeyboard.com/layout-and-keycaps page, but can you help with creating a description similar to Yuzu’s and FK Custom’s on the page?

Thank you so much for letting others know about Thockfactory and that I have added the UHK60 and UHK80 layouts to our configurator!
@mlac here is a small description similar to the others, which I have thought would fit:
Thockfactory offers dye-sub PBT keycaps which can be fully customised using their online configurator. Their keycaps are not backlight-friendly.
Let me know if this sounds good to you or if anything should be changed.

Thank you! Just updated the page, and the cache will update in a day.

The Yuzu description mentions they use Cherry profile caps, but they have since added the KAM profile as well.
@Hov I see the Thockfactory FAQ says, “At present, Cherry profile is the only one supported. We have plans to introduce XDA, DSA and more profiles in the future.”
Any estimate of how far in the future?
Unfortunately, I can’t provide an estimate yet. We recently switched to a new manufacturer, so I have to start from scratch with the whole process of offering new profiles. There’s a lot of work and cost involved, and unfortunately, the demand doesn’t justify it yet.
I definitely want to offer new profiles, but I have so much other stuff in my backlog currently…
Ok, I understand it takes time to build up such a niche service, and I applaud you for offering it. There are plenty of us keeb nerds who really appreciate it🙂. I’ll keep lurking around your site in the meantime🥸.
