Title: Keycap sources for a very uncommon custom build
Post by: PlacaFromHell on Mon, 06 May 2019, 14:49:44

Hello geeks. Just being curious, is there any source of keycaps for a build like this? The requirements are being consistent between them, with a sculpted profile and SA or SA-like. I don't really care if they are not MX compatible at all or the legends are not completely accurated. Color is just ilustrative.

Signature Plastics' list of which SA key sizes are available on each row can be downloaded from here (https://pimpmykeyboard.com/key-cap-family-specs/).

The only somewhat unusual keycaps would be the 1.75 Backspace (Row 1) and 1.25 Back-Tab (Row 2), and I can see those as being available.
Row 1 1.25u is not available though.
I don't think SA has sculpted numpad-Enter and numpad-+ but are actually using 2×1 keys. (If I'm wrong, please correct me)

Yes, they are 2x1 keys. So, I have to find a solution for the backspace and the 1.25 keys right?
