B roll on point. I just ordered a Tofo60, brass plate, and 62g Sakurios. I've been using Corsair's K65 lux mechanical and a wasd 60% both with Cherry MX Red switches. After starting to see more custom keyboard stuff I decided to take the plunge and go with the tofo60. After watching your videos on the GMMK Pro and the Keychron I get the feeling that there's so much more to explore. I'll have to try soldering switches with a future keyboard. Going to look into different stabilizers also.
