Good evening everybody, curiosity brought me here, my name is Tiago(dont try to read it in english, it sounds so bad..), I'm a (future) electronics engineer, currently working and have been typing in my laptop for more than 4 years, like its keyboard(heresy I know), and with all this flashy keyboards and sooo much OSHW/OSS work I want to make a small DIY Keyboard, I know 0 about mechanical keyboards, well not 0, but very little and I hope I can learn and maybe help you guys and girls.
Best regards.

Welcome to Geekhack!
I suggest you start with the recommended reading (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=68372.0) links.
In particular Simple Questions, Simple Answers (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=40501.0) which has got lots of links at the start to parts, prices, hints etc., and the The Living Soldering Thread (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=42824.0) thread, which is full of soldering and construction tips.
Also browse through the area, where other members have posted their build logs. (https://geekhack.org/index.php?board=117.0making stuff together[/url)

I have no particular model in mind, but I find the TKL's cute, they are small and portable-ish, could throw it into my backpack and carry it along with the laptop, with an integrated LiPo battery and BT would be nice.
Thanks for the links, have a bit to read :)

TKL is a great form factor - all the keys you need, and none you don't! But if you find yourself really missing a numpad, you can always get a separate one.
