Love The Look, But Too Much Work To Make It Feel Right, Strange Key Layout

more_vert
This is probably my favorite overall board in terms of the look of it. In terms of the feel, it has taken so much work to make this a "useable" keyboard. I really couldn't have known how unhappy I would be with the standard keycap set till I bought it. But they use such a weird combination of sizes for the left shift, left CTRL and space bars that using anything other than the stock keycaps requires at least 3 and possibly 4 sets depending on which set you use.

Pictured is the YMDK Split 64 and T0MB3RY SA CARBON dual alphas and modifiers, along with a random key from my Dancer set because no left shift from the T0MB3RY kit would fit. Sitting on top of the Chenyi Good Wishes desk mat, which has gotten more abuse than my other mats but is still my favorite.

Sucks that you had to resort to that one Dancer key. That would drive my OCD crazy, lol. But otherwise it looks nice. 👍

It looks like a 2u shift? If so, the carbon Xtras kit has it.
yes exactly. I will buy that kit for that one key.
