Sorry it is late, but here it is! The nominations thread for February's Keyboard of the Month competition!
Last month's winner was idollar's FSSK
(http://i.imgur.com/vVppV5h.jpg)
We had great participation last month! Lots of interest in the new year of boards! So let's hope the shortest month of the year gets just as much love :)
Remember, the rules have changed slightly, so please read the announcement thread, but other than that, happy nominating!

jdcarpe has come out with his new JD45 keyboards which are manufactured by TEX. Like matt30's Whitefox, it's great to see a keyboard that started as a hobbyist DIY kit and end up being produced by a keyboard OEM.

Lastly, codingcpa is restoring a IBM 6019284 Kishsaver (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=79643.0) and it look's really nice. I'm not sure if it's done yet but it's always fun to see them being restored.

Ellipse's F62 and F77 project has reached GB stage. Prototypes are in hand. He essentially worked to recreate the Kishsavers in the 62 and 77 key layouts. They're new buckling spring keyboards; maybe the first modern BS boards made besides Unicomps.
