Alright guys I got a good one for you to research. This is way beyond my google skills. I am looking for a 15 unit space bar. Yes you read that right. I want to build my TKL with 1 cap on the bottom row. I have some inconclusive evidence that they exist based on some forum posts in one of the GH60 threads over there. Problem is he threw out the cap after he mixed up some old paint with it according to the poster. If anyone has any info on this matter it would be most excellent. Looking for any info that might help me track one of the things down.

For those of you that are wondering on what kind of layout this is for here is a teaser for ya. Ignore the very odd sized blank "caps" between the alpha keys and the navigation cluster as those are just place holders since I couldn't figure out how to do a regular TKL on that layout generator.

Here is the layout

just wondering what kind of stabilizers this gangantua needs

Don't care so long as I can plate mount the stabs since this will be a hard wired matrix.

I wonder if traditional Cherry, Costar or Alps stabilisers would be able to stabilise such a long key correctly. Maybe you would have to build the space bar supported by a metal frame on hinges, like on a mechanical typewriter.

For the keycap, I have not seen anything larger than ten units. You could of course glue several space bars together.

Now that's a bar taking up space!

What do you guys think of the proposed layout?

I woul miss a lot of modifier. A spacebar that size, is a lot waste of space for me. I am fine with a spacebar of 2 units (on each side L/R). And I see no ergonomic benefit for cutting the F Keys. You need (more) programable layers at all.

Good luck with your project.
