Buckling Spring Keyboards

Heavy Duty in the Booty · June 15, 2016

Hello guys. I want a buckling spring keyboard with thin bezels like the Ducky Shine 5 and Pok3r. I also see that the keys are always slanted so is it also possible to get it straight up or in a similar position to the Pok3r?

I own a Pok3r (its dirty as hell) and I like the layout and look of it. I thought it might be possible just to get a custom made one. Is it also possible to get it in TKL or 60%?

http://clickykeyboards.com/ sells original Model M's, the stock ranges quite alot, you might have to look every once and a while if they have a Space Saver in stock.

http://www.pckeyboard.com/ sells new Model M's, they make to order but off a base model, I don't think they sell a 10 keyless model.

There isn't much range other than that for buckling switches, there were some buckling switch clones in the 90's, that is about it though.

So is it possible to get thinner bezels but with full keyboard layout. Can i also drop the F1-12 Layout at the top as well or does the company have to keep it?

I don't really know, I left out the base model M / Classic since they are very not what you want, maybe look at these and compromise on one.
