Blockers are a contentious point among enthusiasts. Some of us like them, some of us don't. I wanted to make a system that accomodates everyone's tastes. I present to you the D.U.M.B. system:

D - Dynamic
U - Unaffixed
M - Movable
B - Blockers

They would be mounted using magnets, as shown very poorly by my crappy render:

Here's some examples of the layouts that can be done:

Standard

WKL (Winkeyless, 1U)

BB (Bauer Blockers, 0.75U)

AKL (All-keyless)

Let me know what you think of my D.U.M.B. idea. Thanks

It would fit good on the Cannon key  keyboard where the blockers were different color

I hope this is an April fool  because the Treeleaf was really fooled for a second

But what if I want to block a key right in the middle of my alphas?

I don't get how it works but AKL is the superior layout
