My Keychron V4 is supposed to arrive later today.

Keycaps and switches are still a couple weeks away, but I can use my current ones until then.

Take care: is an expensive religion. πŸ˜‡
I "was born" with a (used but perfect) IBM Model M received as a gift from an university professor.
Used it daily, even at work, for 20+ years.
Then bought a Filco Majestouch 2 TKL in 2019 due to some keys malfunctioning: 170 €.
Then I started partly work from home, so one keyboard for office, one for home: I've bought a GMMK 1 ISO TKL with custom keycaps and switches: 170 €.
Now I'm in love with the Lily58 Pro: >200 €

@benjaminhollon Before buying an ergo split keyboard, it's about time to learn your touch-typing! Am I right, @nosherwan ?
I need to improve on that!

And I also have, since about 1998 (used daily till 2019), my lovely dear IBM Model M, ISO Italian layout, to be cleaned up to get back to work, as soon as I can, hopefully.

And I'm already looking around for a new one, maybe fully programmable, split and ergo... But first I have to rob a few banks for the money. πŸ˜…πŸ˜πŸ˜‚πŸ€£

Here you are:
* Bought in 2019, Filco Majestouch 2 TKL, ISO Italian layout with Cherry MX Blue switches, customized with blank Windows keys.
* Bought in 2022, GMMK 1 ISO TKL with Gateron SMD Blue switches and Laser-Etched Dolch Side-Printed PBT keycaps from YMDKey, mixed Italian+German sets to create the Italian (142) layout.

Of all the things that could have gone wrong with last night's build... it is the keycaps that are 2mm too large for the spacing on the board πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

Everything else works perfectly though, first time I might add!!

Everything has now arrived. This evening, we solder.

(and probably debug/troubleshoot a lot, but that's not important right now)

Cool. Excluding milady IBM Model M that I have to properly clean due to a malfunctioning key, I'm still on TKL format ( Majestouch 2 and 1 barebone with custom keycaps).
I've tried the Royal Kludge RK61: very nice piece and quality, but 60% format is too small for me.
I'm still tempted by the 65%, just like your K6.
Or the big jump to an ergo/split one like .

This is for @benjaminhollon: a former colleague of mine probably knows me so well, that he hates my wallet. Look at this: melgeek.com/pages/melgeekpixel My money are almost already gone!
