This "ortho TKL" called glyphkbd was designed and shared by galile0. The 5x13 ortholinear layout is extended by a navigation and arrow cluster, largely inspired by drFaustroll's m65 as well as the Stucco.

The glyph v1 was handwired and used sealing strips as a mounting method, something the author learned from KotteCE's Batoid. Glyphkbd_v2 uses a custom PCB with integrated STM32F072 controller running QMK, with 3D printed top mount case.
