ASCII-F is inspired by the original ASCII keyboard - updated with a more modern layout and design.  A full 65% keyboard with a complete numpad that includes arrow keys, a navigation cluster (PgUp, PgDn, Home, End), and a 2u 0 (zero) key on the numpad.  The Plateless Top Mount provides a soft and 'bouncy' typing experience without being flexible. If soldering plateless is a daunting task for you there is a hotswap PCB and plates available.
