Message: [QUOTE="ihatepants, post: 3710271, member: 909"] This is one of my favorite hobbies right now. I've spent over $1000 on stuff for mechanical keyboards this month alone with a couple of $500 and $800 keyboards that I'm looking to get when they open up for sale later this month as well. That's without any switches or keycaps yet, either. Most keycap sets alone cost $130+ and then resell for $300+ nowadays because of how limited they are and how if you miss out on one the only way to get them is from a person who actually bought them when they were available. If height is a problem for you, I'd definitely recommend a wrist wrest. But ideally you don't rest your wrists while typing at all since most workplace ergonomics recommendations say that the only time your wrists actually touch the table are when you're not actively typing. Alternatively you can get a different profile of keycap since every keycap profile has different shapes and heights. Cherry profile and DSA keycaps are the lowest profile ones and most keyboards sold as a set use OEM profile which is slightly taller.
