WOW! There are some really nice keycaps arrangements here! This is my humble re-do of my Filco Majestouch 2. I just put some white PBT keycaps on it. Again, excuse the camera.

Received my 87UW45g today, and put on the black keycaps from my 87UB.  I have my own opinion on these two configurations, but I would love to what you all think.

The second one looks fantastic.  I would like to see the inverse of the first.

Did 2 different variations.

In my opinion 87UW looks best in its original white/grey color combo.  But I will keep it as is for now to see if it would grow on me.

Cool, thanks for posting more pics. :)

Seeing them now, I don't really care for the mixed white/black caps in any combination.  Original white/gray or all black caps looks best.

Just swapped in the Dolch number row as well.  I thought it looked kind of weird before.  Just realized that it was because the number row was missing.  And now, featuring Creeper!

So the best keyboard can also have the best keycaps. Looks very nice, Dox.

Thanks dorkvader! I may end up ordering some shorter right shifts to complete the set and a matching spacebar for the wyse keycaps buy SP charge 50$ for a single spacebar...

Dox, what space bar are you looking for?  What keyboard/caps?  I have a couple Cherry spacebars in several lengths, both black and beige.

I'm looking for a space bar that is 6.25 unit wide (same length as Filco) in a light gray color like the wyse keycaps. I don't think that there is any cherry board with this color. Thanks for the offer.

oh, yeah, that's going to be hard.  Maybe dye a beige cherry one, then glue the missing stem in?  that's my best idea.

I still love it, but I really liked before when the Dolch keys were surrounded by darker keys. But wow, that picture with the creeper - amazing. ^_^

Now that I have the new Realforce 87U Anniversary edition coming from Korea, I am thinking that the gray/blue combo on that 87U could look pretty good on a black Filco.  Maybe we need a group buy for this keycap set for Filco.
