L9 BAE- L9 base, CR legends



Why?
After growing up using keyboards that had the BAE key, it is sad that it became redundant. I've been in the hobby for years now and there have been countless GB's but only a few had BAE.
So I decided to do this


Why Icon Mod BAE?

Cherry G80-2100 HDU
Because it is cursed beautiful, Just look at it!
Also why not?

Which stablizers would they use?
BAE will work with ANSI stablizers due to a new mould developed for GMK Beige Addon Kits.



Vendors
NA- Sneakbox
UK-Prototypist
EU-Oblotzsky
SEA-Ilumkb
Ocenia - Cafege
India- Neomacro

mcmcmc was gracious enough to make text+icon BAE ANSI compatible. I am not sure about Icon Mod BAE, will have to confirm with GMK.

Double checking for clarity...

Use ANSI pbc, put normal switch and stabilizers on Enter, take the spring out of the pipe key switch (and contact leaf if you cannot program to be nothing), and adorn both with BAE?  Is that how it works?

In for one of each probably. These are fun. Glad that you're using original Dolch + Dolch R5 colors.

Btw, your text under the beige render is hardly readable with the dark GH theme.

I need confirmation what mounting the Icon mod BAE uses but the text BAE will work with Ansi stabilizers and uses dummy switch in pipe key position so you won't have to remove the switch.

I've found that using a very light spring (like 10-20g) works better than no spring for dummy switches but no spring definitely works too.

Really cool project mate, probably down for wob, dolch and beige if there aren't many extras of the beige addon kit (not the biggest fan of bow, and the one set I have that looks like it isn't CR for the legends, it's more of a grey so it wouldn't match). GLWIC

Count me in! I've always loved BAE, I recently got one in the DCS WOB GB and I've been so happy to have a custom board with this goofy big-ass key on it.

I'm also very curious about this, since AFAIK GMK has a variety of moulds for BAE. Compatibility wise, an ANSI mount with a blank key in Pipe positition would be optimal since virtually all custom keyboards have ANSI support, while ISO support is (unfortunately) less common.

so, that older mold you are showing in the flipped over cap is not ANSI compatible...

Yes its from the Cherry G80-2100HBU, afaik its the only board that had an Icon mod BAE...
The stab positions are very different from ISO or ANSI.

Ah, gotcha. I couldn't tell from the post if that was the icon or the rest of them. If the rest are ANSI compatible, all should be good
