Why multiple keyboards? (self.mechanicalkeyboards)

So, I have a 100% Keychron Q6 that I've changed the switches and caps on, and it's been treating me very well!

I've had the urge to build another (TKL) board to take up less space, and maybe have some different switches that are less for productivity and more for gaming.

What do you guys build/ keep multiple boards for? Work/ Play/ etc?

I compromised and went with a split ortho keyboard at home, since ergo (column stagger) makes WASD gaming tricky. I've wanted to print a split ergo board for the work computer but I haven't got around to it. Never felt the need to have multiple keyboards for the same computer though, unless you count the macro pad I built, since the tented Nyquist is good enough for both typing and gaming.
