Nice setup! I’ve got exactely the same setup. It is a Q3 by the way. Same key caps in ISO FR ;-) (carbon set from keychron). I wish they could produce an ISO FR wob keycap set! I ve put some gateron KS3 milky yellow pro switches and added some pe foam between the plate and pcb.
Edit : I noticed yours is translucent sorry my mistake, it is indeed a V3.. so they are not exactely the same :-)

I also considered the Q3 but I decided to start with a lower budget.
I bought the prebuilt one with the K pro switches because the difference in price was pretty much nothing and I'm trying to figure out what switches I like. It can be overwhelming but maybe I'll buy one of those switch testers!
I think this is the way you fall in the rabbit hole 💸💸

Yes, it is an expensive hobby. At least having no choice for keycaps in ISO (It-Fr) avoids us some extra expenses. Bought it prebuilt with red pros and then changed to milky yellow pros. A bit heavier. I’d like to try some tactile switches someday.

I really wish they would offer a tkl with a knob without it being an iso layout.

Very nice! I bought that same wrist rest last week and love it so far. I like that you have the cutting mat as your desk mat. I might do that because I want to use my desk as a work bench for little projects too. Thanks for the inspiration

They have so many different models that it's easy to miss something... Besides the price I ordered the V3 because I didn't found the Q3 ISO. I found that too a few days later

Yes it's very comfortable! As for the desk mat I had to cut 100 custom cardboard sleeves for my band's EP so I bought a cutting mat. Then I thought it could be good also as a desk mat

MX Ergo!

Which wrist rest is it? Thank you
davideb263 OP t1_j5nofo0 wrote
That's a KVM switch. It allows multiple devices to share the same peripherals and monitor, so I can switch to the pc I want to use without the need to disconnect and reconnect mouse keyboard and webcam every time. It's really handy for WFH!
davideb263 OP t1_j5nomy6 wrote
Yes! One of the best purchase I've ever made

It's the wooden wrist rest from glorious. I think that's the actual name. Very wide and comfortable

Me too... I thought about switching to ansi but I need to have consistency between my keyboard and my laptop and here it's not easy to find and ansi laptop without importing it.

True. I need my extra letters also

Cool, I’m going to check it out

Nice. Do you have a link for that? I'm interessed. Having some issues with 2 laptops and 2 displays.

I just transitioned from an MX Vertical to the Ergo, I'm surprised at how well I adapted. Wish it was more customizable, all I've been able to do is replace the gray trackball with a gold one.

I listened to some tracks on the way to work, it’s really good! Thanks for sharing ❤️

glad you liked it!
davideb263 OP t1_j5p7yiw wrote
logitech is not famous for being very customizable but it's the best thumb trackball on the market imo.
You could replace the switches though if you can solder

I finally found a nice keyboard with some nice keycaps in ISO-IT layout.
They are so hard to find that I'm thinking of switching to iso-uk and buy some cheap stickers for my laptop.
I also got a wrist rest from glorious PC that I think looks good with the keyboard even though it's a bit shorter.
These are the specs:
I don't have much experience with other switches but I like how these browns feel and sound. I will try others in the future though since the keyboard is hot swappable.
For now i'm very happy with this!
