I did not know that Apple users used G and H as their home keys.

I'll do this to a GMK set just to see whether it works or not

Better off doing it to a set of OG dyesubs tbf.

I already did this to all of my OG Cherry and GMK sets, because these sets come with scoops instead of homing bars.
It works like a charm and them glue drops feel so much better than the nasty scoops!

They basically used anything but the F and J as home keys over time :p . They had a nub on the right arrow key at some point :p .

I don't home on my keyboard on the bars.

I home by edge detection as I move my way towards the keyboard

As soon as I sense an edge, I instantly know where to travel from there.

I did this to a JTK set and it was perfect. Came right off when I sold it, you couldn't tell it was there.

Because all sentences start with a capital letter, the first key I home in on is left Shift.

Super glue not only works better, but it comes off really easily with a tiny bit of paint thinner.

No worries, if it's a lighter cap you can use a sharpie to write the letters back on there
