I've had a project on the back burner for a bit since I fucked up the mounting plate, I finally want to put it to bed so I'd kind of like someone to knock up a file that I can send off to get laser cut...I'm after a standard 60% ANSI AEK layout plate but with split backspace and left and right shifts.

If anyone could help that would be fantastic, I do normally like trying to learn how to do this stuff for myself but (as my post history shows) I don't have a whole lot of time these days...I think there's a standard ANSI AEK plate in the op here. I'm happy to throw a few beers at whoever can help.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place as well, wasn't sure where to put it...feel free to move if there's somewhere more appropriate.

I can throw together a plate for you, just need clarification on one point: By split left shift, you want a 1.5u left shift + 1u key?

Nice one, thanks very much :D.

I wanted an ISO style left shift (1.25+1) and HHKB style right shift (1.75+1).

Okay, got it, thanks! I can put it together once I get home.

EDIT: I just noticed, you want to have the Esc key in your layout. Does it have a rotated stem like the one on the ANSI AEK?

EDIT 2: I am in need of some clarification, sent you a PM.
