Title: Tkl recommendations/suggestions?
Post by: coelacanth on Wed, 09 June 2021, 13:52:08
I am very new to this hobby, however I really want to dive right in and experience the joys of building a keyboard. However, I am stumped when it comes to finding a tkl. I currently have my eye on the Geonworks Frog Tkl and their f2-84. Though I would like to have backup options if I'm not able to get either, plus I am interested in other Tkls out there!

I heard about the space80 apollo from graystudio, but I am not a fan of how rounded the corners are, and the general thickness of the board. I would like something quite minimalistic, nothing too stand out or flashy (refer to Frog Tkl, F1-8x, f2-84 if you need examples). I don't really have a tight budget, anything between $200 to $700 is reasonable in my books, just not r/mechmarket levels of money lol. Any and all tkl suggestions are appreciated!
