Made some design updates based on feedback I received from a couple fellow keyboard designers and I just received the first two prototypes this week. Super happy with how they turned out.

It’s my daily driver. I was using the original prototype up until this one was delivered. Same layout, just a slightly different case design.

Man, you are a different breed then. I'd probably die of stress if my keyboard was this small. 😂

Man, if not for the tiny space frame keys and the 80s grain keycap texture I'd buy this in a hearbeat.

Holy shit, that's a massive keyboard. I'm a 96% guy. This is the one I have. I replaced the key caps with keychron's high profile KSA, the switches with baby kangaroo and taped the board and put extra foam in there. It now sounds fantastic. I'll keep it until it falls apart.

It’s not for everyone but you do get used to it surprisingly fast.

Definitely not for me and never will be, but I 100% understand and will never judge you. As long as you're happy with it. This is like Linux for me, it is not for everyone but it makes me happy :)

Haha totally understand!
