New guy from Detroit!
« on: Tue, 22 November 2016, 09:03:03 »
Hello all!

New guy here from the Detroit area. I got hooked once I started looking at the Mech Keys Section on Massdrop! I also collect transformers (if you couldn't tell from my name  :p)

I bought a Sky Dolch Key Set from Originative, along with the extras, and don't even have a keyboard yet!  :))

I've narrowed down to the CM Masterkeys Pro S and a Leopold numpad to the left, as I do a lot of CAD at work (Industrial Designer). I tried the spacing between a TKL and a mouse and it feels much more comfortable than a full-width keyboard (I now use a Logitech K330 my work provided me... :eek:).

While using that, I'd like to jump in on a TKL Custom Keyboard group buy! I'm bummed that I missed out on a lot of great designs here!

Welcome.

Stick around and you'll see more customs, they pop up decently often from what I can tell.

Awesome, thanks!
