I hate to be this person but I'm on day 7 of a flu and my brain just isn't functioning. Im looking for a home for my canvas xda set and this board is very tempting. I ordered alphas, modifiers and the bauhaus set. Will the Bauhaus cover the non standards needes for this board?

Golgo13Depends on the layout you choose, but the standard layout uses 1u right Alt/Ctrl keys, which I think was available in the Tsangan kit. So depends which modifier kit you bought, or flexible you are with using substitute keys.

goodthymesThanks. I ordered the icon mods so mixing won't bother me too much. I just can't figure out if I go 2.25 on the left shift does that leave room for full row of alpha plus three 1u spots?

Golgo13Perhaps users who have experience with this pcb can chime in, but just from the layout MD posted, looks like if you go 2.25 left shift, you might have to use 1u right shift to keep the standard alpha layout for that row. Checkout /r/MechanicalKeyboards on reddit, lots of experienced and helpful people on there also.

goodthymesYou can't have both standard sized left shift and full alpha layout and still have a 1u arrow key. If you want arrow keys, the "up" arrow is the anchor for that row, and everything to the left of it has to accommodate it.
If you want full alpha layout (i.e. with a "?" key), you have to run a 2u left shift (or put two 1u keys there), which moves the alphas in that row over by .25 to the left, so that you can have a 1u right shift. The "?" key then gets moved to the end of the row to the right of the "up" arrow key.
