Title: Pickiest New member looking for help
Post by: neobanana8 on Sat, 22 December 2018, 19:34:55
Hello keyboard enthusiasts,

I'm all the way from the edge of the world here but surely the power of internet could help me.

I'm looking for a very specific layout of a keyboard that I could buy or make. I tried posting on reddit too and here is the post. Hopefully I am not too picky lol.


Thank you beforehand! :))


Hi guys and gals,

I just bought a new pc, looking for a new keyboard/numpad ( a bit weird but you will understand why soon)

I want a full size keyboard, numpad on the left, but the enter key on the outside/left pinky key (e.g rog claymore or dsi left handed would not do because the enter is on left thumb size). So far I have only found A4tech Ergonomic KBS-29 but the weird shape of the caps turned me off...

If such thing does not exist yet/ parts exist that ship to australia, I don't mind buying a separate numpad but the enter should also be on the left pinky/outer side too.

Thank you so much beforehand and happy brain busting!

Edit: Someone came up with the Macropad idea. but the problem is that the enter key size would be the standard letter size instead of double/taller/2keys tall. Please excuse my pickiness...

It's the Southpaw Fullsize, GB ordering phase closed a while ago but I'm sure he got some extras.
