Actually the southpaw version is called GK96LS.

I have that one too! I saw it on the KS and waited till it ended and promptly ordered one from the Epomaker web page. And that's for my home office.
This southpaw is for the office, however, coz I don't need the blinking RGB keyboard that's wireless at the office. 😂

Reply to GMK Norse + Iron165 R2 Graphite by undercovergangster
Sweet lord that is one fine looking board. That graphite and Norse have such an understated sophistication to it.
I'd stick this behind glass and never use it but rather just gawk at it all day long lol. I know it's just a keyboard but still... that's one beautiful setup.

How does it feel to type on this for extended periods of time? Any issues you've run into?

What keycaps?
pabloescobyte t1_iugb318 wrote
Great job and welcome to the rabbit hole!
At first glance your spacebar and Esc looked like they didn't have keycaps on due to the way their prints kind of meld into the deskmat.

Southpaw layout suits the right hander more so than left hander.
if you think about with the south paw you can keep your right hand on the mouse while your left hand do all the task hitting numpad, function keys, and etc.
on that thought for left hander the standard full size keyboard with the numpad and function keys on the right is far more ergonomic - as long as they do use their left hand to move mouse. 😋

Reply to Keep a look out for wild Oni on Halloween ;) by a_saker
Oni has a really nice set of blues. Normally I don't like light blue color schemes but this one just works so nicely together with the deeper blues and the high contasting white legends.
Nice to see someone using Holy Pandas for a change!

Reply to SA Tatooine with a 3D printed case by MightyJabba
Would probably look right at home inside a landspeeder or inside the Mos Eisley Cantina even!
I love the novelties but personally not a fan of the color scheme.

This is awesome to see in an office instead of someone's desk.
Does your country drive on the left side of the road by any chance?

Check Skyloong Epomaker for the GK96S.
Or Jabberwock if you're looking for a Southpaw Alice. I'm finalizing mine on Monday.

Why do I feel this might be more comfortable using CAD… even for someone who’s right handed.

Me too! Put it all together with a trackball with a scroll ring and you're ready for hours of spreadsheet manipulation fun!
Edit: Street? Ready? Guess I can see it with swipe auto correct.

Epomaker makes a 96 in southpaw. I love mine.
EDIT: I bought it through Epomaker, it's a Skyloong

> Not sure about the nav cluster being on the left tho
it's great! when I type and manipulate the Excel cells I can do so without lifting my right hand from the mouse. :p

Ngl a lot of people in this hobby tends to be toxic towards new people so yeah ig people feel like they are "noobs" just because others want to gatekeep instead of welcome.

check out the keyboardco.com
this one's called SB-3500 from their product range.
do note that this is ISO layout since the keyboard is geared for UK customers but you can set the ANSI layout from your Windows and swap few keycaps and Bob's your uncle.

it's called retro IBM keycaps in SA profile. Got it during 11 Nov sales off AliX - though even with sales it cost me A$69. 😂
