I’ve been using my https://github.com/overset/JP01 Arisu daily for 2.5yr and still love it. Used similar split-fixed layouts for years prior so easy transition to current board. I remember it taking a while to get used to split-fixed but enjoyed the lack of discomfort after long sustained periods of typing.

I also have a separate Numpad because i have to type ñáéíóú a lot.

I got my first keeb to be an Alice. I honestly just wanted to try it out bc it seems cool. Altho i am planning to get a 75% for the sake of my finger positioning being used to that layout instead of the Alice layout.
I also find the fact that there's two space bars super useful, and the fact that it's a bit angled. But i still have to fully get used to this. I have a keychron V8 btw.

Your hands don't both rotate inwards though.
Look at the stagger on the left side.
As you move upward on the stagger, you have to turn your left hand outward, rather than inward.
If rotating both hands inward while typing is your goal, I'd highly recommend checking out split ortho boards.
Those actually do allow both hands to rotate inwards, without requiring the outward turn that staggered boards do.

What do you think of getting one later cut and just do an open air type thing too?

Yea, I got you there is no wood touch any component. It’s just an open air case, so there isn’t really any over heating issues. The only thing enclosed is the PSU. You can kind of see the grate above it. The biggest issue is dust because their are no filters. Lol so in a couple weeks if I don’t can air it we will have some super terrible issues

The one next to the space bar, with Option next to that, mimicking a Mac layout.
Can you hit Command+Option+P with your left hand only?
I can do that on all of my keyboards, which is why I don't like any board that splits the modifiers.

Well because wood is known to not be too great at heat dispersion/dissipation, but certain metals usually are. I also didn't notice where air vents might be(but again that might just be I haven't seen them yet) But if you say it runs like a dream, I believe you. I love the look of this setup and have been wanting a wooden case for a looong time now. Just gotta find one that has good thermals.

Wait why would the thermals be bad?

My favorite is the Victrix Gambit! I have an elite 2 as well, but it can’t be over locked so it’s with my Xbox. To me it doesn’t have as many bells and whistles and buttons not paddles…. But while the elite feels better in the hand the gambit out performs it…. To me

Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. Hows the thermals in the case? I'm assuming not too great, but if you did it yourself I could totally be wrong.

That (blue/green?) keyboard on the bottom looks lonely.

Regarding the texture, is there a different brand that feels like GMK underneath the fingers? Have you tried Drop DCX?
Mainly I love GMK mostly for the feeling of laying my fingers on the keys. It's so smooth

So how I at least would make it work is the following: find a spring that fits perfectly around the stem of a switch and attach it there, then see if I need to replace the switch spring with 100g springs or something, the 3d print or cardboard cutout for all you 3d printer lacking ppl the shape of all the keys attach it to the spring and it might work. The problem would be figuring out the right spring tension

Again, I'm not here to debate anything. I just answered the comment above.
If people wanna get chuffed about WKL, go ahead. Every key is useless when you ask 40's users. Who - the - frick - cares 🤌🏼 just do what you want. It's your keyboard.
