Ive got a friend looking for a somewhat custom keyboard. Essentially he thinks mx blacks are great but abit light. So, the absolute cheapest/ easiest option here for him seems to be that I need to find an mx black board that's pcb mounted, and a bunch of 100g springs. Any suggestions as to some keyboards with pcb mounted blacks?

Not many choices
Cherry G80s, PokerX, Race, Pure, Neo Zelia, Plum 96. There are also some kit boards that support PCB mount options... depending on budget it may be more convenient.

The friend could learn to (un)solder :), it's a good skill to have, especially with keyboards (= larger palette)

They're not that heavy. Sometimes, for some folks, a beefy switch is just right. Well, maybe until they try it! A board full of linear greys?
