As requested, here is the official Interest Check for a
limited run of my new personal project, which I call
CompactTKL. (
More info here)
So what is it? It’s a layout the squishes a full TKL
layout into a smaller footprint. A bit like an extended
75%.
It’s fairly unique, and perhaps not a good fit for
lovers of micro keyboards, but I like it…
- … because the layout is a good key-and-a-half narrower than a TKL, so the mouse can be very close
- … because the F row is offset from the number row, which gives a more pleasing appearance than 75%
- … because the various keys are where they are supposed to be, with only Home/End migrating to a G80-5000 configuration
-
… because it takes a standard ANSI keyset, except for the
one extra 1x next to the arrows and the incorrect profile
of Home/End (solvable with numpad keys if desired)
It uses Cherry switches and Costar stabilizers, and comes with fully programmable firmware and interactive keymapper.
Here’s some shots:
It features full backlighting and eight indicator LEDS.
Each colored area is a backlighting zone, and the white keys are programmable indicators (Caps lock, Fn lock, etc) that can be configured to be part of the green backlight zone.

This IC is initially going to be offering a case that is similar to mine, but without the build-in wrist rest, which I honestly would not recommend.
If the IC is successful and the community would prefer, we can develop a new case. I’m all ears for suggestions.
Price is not yet certain. I will start calculating a more accurate number, but assume it would be north of $200.
