Hi!
I have searched for hours to find a keyboard kit which matches these three requirements but was so far unable to come up with any results:
- 65%
- universal (I would like to use an ANSISO layout - ANSI left shift, ISO enter)
- an exactly 2 unit wide right shift key, as found in keyboards like the Ducky One 3 SF
Of course, features like hotswap and RGB lighting would be nice-to-have as well, but are not mandatory for me.
Since the 2 unit right shift key is non-standard, it would probably need to be a complete kit. The closest thing I was able to find was the "Createkeebs High65" (V1) which is a universal kit with a non-standard right shift key - except it's 2.25 units instead of 2 (and unavailable for purchase).
Surely there has to be at least one keyboard kit somewhere which supports these requirements? If there isn't I'll probably settle with the Ducky One 3 SF ISO and attempt to bind "<" to shift but still, I would prefer having a large, singular left shift.
Any help would be appreciated!

I've never seen this layout in the wild, only in photos. May I ask where you reside? That bigass enter key would really throw me off, but I guess you would just get use to it.
When I learned to type, I only used the left SHIFT key. I wonder if I'm the only weirdo that does that? I bet if you considered a 1.75u shift key that you would find more options.

BTW. By "Big-Ass Enter", people more often mean the larger backwards-L key that is like the union of the ANSi and ISO Enter/return keys.
