Designed and 3d printed my own custom case for the K8 Pro, since I thought it was too tall and I didn't want a wrist rest.

Curious why you didn't just buy one of their low profile keyboards?

Have a K3 Pro at work, and I think the K8 Pro feels a lot better, especially with the 3d printed case. Because of the reduced travel I keep bottoming out the keys on the K3 which does not feel like it is good for my hands. Also tried o-rings, but they don't work the same way as on a normal profile keyboard.

The V-series is a lot lower, and if I knew about those from the start I'd most probably just get one of those and skip the bluetooth.
