I'm looking for mechanical keyboards that have their f and number keys line up exactly (besides the noppo choc mini and the keycool 84). Those are the only two of that style I have been able to find so far. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Check Rapoo line of KB. I know that on Rapoo KX F1 is directly over 1 but F1 is part of the touch panel (vibration feedback). A more classic type is Rapoo (Pro) V500 TKL where F1 and 1 are vertically aligned (basically there is no empty space between ESC and F1). Also, Rapoo V7 TKL. Here are 2 of Rapoo V500:

122-key IBM/Lexmark/Unicomp

KPT-84

Thanks, where would I find a kpt-84?

Oh that reminds me i have one, a NIB vivanco branded kpt, lol. Note to self, take pictures, sell shit. xD

Another option you may not have considered: this Cherry G86-62410 with MX switches. Make the F-keys and numbers line up any way you damn well please. Change your mind if/when you want. Every key can be programmed. Every key can be moved.

This is not my sale. I am pretty enthusiastic about the whole Cherry G86 line which is ordinarily rubber dome, and which works just fine for me, they're nice rubber domes. No mashed potatoes or dead octopi here. But if someone says they want mechanical, I'll take them at their word and point them toward mechanical.

Digging through my stuff found 2 more of the "1 and F1 vertically aligned" boards, both with white ALPS switches:

KEYBOARD CSK-7102N (Spanish)
and

UNITEK K-258
