I love the look, but i would want one more row and two more columns to make it a typing board, but for extra keys it would be awesome

Right when I got into custom mechanical keyboards, I knew I wanted an Iron165. Then, I saw the GB for GMK Norse and thought to myself that it was the perfect combination. Now that Norse has finally come in, I was able to build this beauty and it is everything I could've wanted when the idea first formed in my head.

Board: Iron 165 R2 Graphite

Switches: Gateron Ink V2 Black, lubed

Keycaps: GMK Norse + RAMA Artisan + Novelties

Stabilizers: Staebies V2

As nice as it was, the since of accomplishment after the build was even more rewarding. And I am very pleased with the end product, both from a utilitarian standpoint and aesthetically. This is rapidly becoming my favorite build, so far (even over my U80A-SEQ2, which I have been enjoying for almost a year now).

compact keyboard with numpad are often called 96 but the proper term is the "1800 Compact" and yes there are 96 keys. :)

difference between this and the full size keyboard is on the full size there are ample space between the numpad, function keys and main keyboard whereas in the 1800 compact all of those keys are smack back stuck together to eliminate all those space.
