Best Barebones/custom keyboard if I'm starting to get wrist pain/tingling
Hey all, I type all day as many of us do and I've been finding some pain in my wrist and tingling in my fingers lately and want to know the best keyboard I can throw my favorite switches into and try to avoid/mitigate these symptoms. Hoping to keep it under $200 and I've never sodered before but willing to try it if the kits well laid out.

You can't really customize it, but the Kinesis Advantage2, is the best keyboard I've ever used. They're expensive, but they last forever. My wrist pain completely went away when I started using one about 7 years ago. It also has a hybrid Qwerty/Maltron layout, so common support keys are placed under your strong fingers instead of your weak fingers, and the letters are all Qwerty. My typing speed increased from about 80 wpm to about 110 wpm after I got used to the new layout.
Edited Colmak to Maltron
What's your layout?
I mean the letters. You said it's a Colemak/qwerty mix.
Whoops, sorry! I meant Maltron. I only say that because of the blocks of keys under your thumbs, like a Maltron keyboard. Really it's a proprietary layout AFAIK.
