Icon where possible, DAS ARROW for caps-lock, glad you like em :)

4u space bars are used for Tipros ... and some other exotic layouts like Marquardt Mini-Ergo

So on a Tipro, an 4u spacebar will straddle 4 switches? What does that make, like 350g force to bottom out? I think perhaps I need to do some weightlifting with my thumbs to be able to press that :lol:

Space bars of staggered (instead of matrix) Tipro keyboards have a central switch and 2 stabilizers.
Like their bigger brothers :D

Will this actually go live this month just like planned or will you delay it a bit more?
I'm really excited for this :D

Currently, this is waiting for the 2u space bar molds.

I'm not in a rush to do this, really sorry for anyone who's waiting for this :(

But I really want to get the REAL 2u space bars instead of missing them by 1-2 months.

Okay super quick update. The 2u Space Bars will be available after they were officially introduced in the GMK Yuri GB/drop.

The rough estimate for a timeline of this GB is APRIL

We can wait. Besides, an standard beige space bar set will mix better with a broader range of sets than an orange one. Therefore, both kits will have their own audience.

I know it's a HADapter kit, but the new spacebars option deserves even a GB on its own.
And there will be audience for the classic colorways such as GMK Dolch or black.

If you want to run a GB just for 2u space bars in popular colorways, please calls it

The split kit *does* look interesting :)

About the diamond kit, can I ask (lightly) - why diamonds? Why not cherries, or penguins (or some other symbol) ? :)

Well, I don't need any of these... expect my order as soon as it is open :D

The diamons where the modifier symbols of choice for the HADapter kit and are made from matt3os templates for Granite.

Diamonds will look like this:

Have you thought about including bottom row arrow keys since they have a different profile than the rest of the bottom row keys

An E-Profile Tilde key in modifier's base color could come very handy. For those that like symmetry.

That key doesn't even exist in HAD ;)
That means there will not be any special keys for ANSI-US symmetry

That's a good point but nothing I am considering for this round.

Oh! well, my bad. For a minute I forgot that this is a HAD kit. But it happens to help westerners so well, that it is so easy to forget its origins.

What about an <>| key in mod beige mod color?
For the symmetrical-care..

I love this and will most likely join to add some flexibility to my "OG cherry"-set. I missed out on the previous HAD-buy, will there be any possibility to buy the HADditionals in this buy as well? Would love to get my hands on the HHKB-keys and FN-key :)

Yuuup got a handfull of HADditionals kits left over that will be available at retail price and ship with the other GB items.

Might sneak this into the kit as a little treat for myself :twisted:
Just like the #' 1.5u key from the first round :)

I know this is going to be made by GMK.

But how possible it is to have it made by BSP?

There is a -400% possibility this can be made by BSP.

They don't have _ANY_ space bar molds and CLAIM the only bottom row mods they can make are 1.5u

So yeah ... If I can find a reliable asian Dyesubber, I would love to make this PBT based as a SADapter Kit.

Or you can call it the "SADdictive Kit" :P

Sorry for the off-topic about SADapter, I know SAD is already not common and HAD should be good enough (btw, does the czech/poland dyesub manufacturer still exist?). :P

I don't know warped space is a such a big problem for PBT cap makers. Probably they need Hawking, Einstein from his grave, or some engineers in the Enterprise to help.

Gateron's bars are pretty straight as far as I have tried them.

I'd be interested in a kit that fits a OG Cherry Dye Sub German qwertz ISO set for a 60% Pok3r. :)
