Hello fellow ortho fan. You have excellent taste in keycaps. :)
I wish more sets came in interesting fonts like DSA 2077. Is it Futura? It kind of looks like Futura…

If a dedicated numpad is the only reason why you need a full-size, you can always get a separate 20%. That way you have the numpad when you need it, but you can enjoy the benefits of a smaller footprint when you don’t.
Just a suggestion. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Full-size is less common than TKLs, 75%, 60%, 40% and even smaller in this hobby, so you may be limiting your options unnecessarily.
Also if you’re interested in trying out new switches in the future, make sure whatever PCB you get is HOT-SWAP.

Believe it or not, I have not run into this situation!
The beauty of the Planck is it’s so light and portable, I can just stick it in my purse and go. I am never without my precious ortholinear layout. :þ
But going off what other people have said, it’s not too bad switching between ortho and staggered, so long as you practice your staggered very occasionally. It’s like your brain is able to retain both forms of muscle memory. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>Sick setup btw! Liked it a lot!
Thanks, I appreciate it. :)

By far the hardest adjustment period is just getting used to ortholinear itself.
That took me about a month or so. I completely relearned how to touch type.
After that I played around with different ideas until I settled on this keymap, which I find pretty effortless. (Only one layer to remember.) Took me a few days to adjust to this current version, and I’ve been using it now for almost a year.

The Planck V6 in Acrylic. The PCB supports underglow, and comes with a bunch of preset gradients, which is pretty nifty. :þ

I wish they’d put out full alpha kits in those accent colors…
