Title: 2u GMK left shift
Post by: LevelSteam on Sat, 21 April 2018, 17:22:57

So I hit a bit of a snag on my newest project. I was planning on throwing a 2u left shift on the board, but forgot that GMK Oblivion didn't come with one. I have the spacebar kit which has a blank 2u cap that will fit, but it's convex on top so it sort of doesn't fit the profile as much as I'd like it to.

I've searched a lot but can't really find anything better to put there. Does anyone know of any novelties or places to buy 2u blanks in cherry profile?

The only 2u you'll find in Cherry profile will be r1 for backspace

If you want r4 your options are 2.25u and 1.75u

Afaik the only set that has one right now is 9009 R2.

Hmm, sounds like my spacebar will be my best bet then. Any 2u artisans/customs available or coming up?

GMK Violet Tendencies will have a 2u shift btw.

Oh yeah, forgot about that set. It's running after GMK Phantom isn't it? Edit: Just rechecked the page here, sooner than that even! Nice!

I'll just use my 2u spacebar until that rolls around.
