ALF Studio: x1.1 Custom Mechanical Keyboard Kit

Custom keyboard shop ALF Studio struck a chord in the mech keys community with boards like the ALF x1, x2, x3 Renova, and DC60. The company’s latest, the x1.1 is a fully programmable tenkeyless keyboard with a futuristic look. Made from CNC-machined aluminum in a wide range of colors, it supports multiple layouts. The bottom of the case is cut with angular gaps, giving the keyboard an almost propped-up look. A brass plate contrasts nicely with the anodized aluminum, while a matching brass insert on the bottom of the case makes the keyboard even heavier. Backed by a mini USB connection, the x1.1 will require assembly.
