Use this guide to cut off numerical keypad from your keyboard.
Why do this?
If you spend a lot of time typing and are experiencing pain in your right shoulder, numerical keypad may be the cause of your pain. When working with your mouse, your right hand is awkwardly positioned far right because of the useless numerical keypad.
There are myriad short keyboards on the market, but almost none retain the regular layout for insert/home/delete/arrows. This hurts me as much as my shoulder.

this is awful !!
Can i do this to an aluminum extended keyboard usb apple?
Judging by the position of the cable, the pcb is placed away from the numerical keypad, so I would guess you should be able to do it.
