I designed the case around the 87U, actually.
I mean the blockers in WKL version. Problem with 87 is that it has 2 "1" keys on the right side and the lack of symmetry might look weird if going WKL.
Oh, good point. Clearly, I am unlearned in the ways of winkeylessness. Can you guys help me understand which models would be suited to a WKL version and which wouldn't? I only have an 87U and 91U on hand. I need to figure out how wide to make and where to position the blockers.
Basically all WKL are using this layout:
(1.5) block (1.5) (7 space) (1.5) block (1.5)
Where the block size is =1.
realforce 86 has this layout, so it will fit like a glove. Problem is this model is not for sale, and is quite rare. Much more so than novatouch i'd guess.
Realforce 87: Use (1.5) (1) (1.5) (6 space) (1.5) (1) (1) (1.5)
On left side, would work. On right side it would be a problem.
If there was a fix, this need to get done:
-get a 7 spacebar. (which is easily fixed)
-remove one (1) spacer.
-move all right side modifiers 1 step to the right.
So the question is if the PCB could be fixed to do this, basically if it allows the 1 movement to the right. It's easy to remove sliders, but if there is holes that support this layout is the question.
