Where to pick up caps for a leopold 660m?
« on: Tue, 23 March 2021, 10:36:42 »
My friend lost his "Q" key when he was cleaning his caps and has been using a 3D printed replacement, but he is itching for a real replacement now. As far as I recall however, they use a non-standard bottom row so they are going to be hard to get a replacement for (also I think those stock caps are really good). Does anyone know where to go to pick up a replacement set, or even just a single key? Thanks in advance.

There are alot of sets out there, just need to make sure they carry the 1.75u shift, the rest of the caps look pretty standard.  It's the fun of owning a non-standard board - even though 65's are coming to be pretty normal/mainstream now that more companies are producing them.  Only board I have that is a PITA to get certain caps for are my pair of CM Quickfire TK's as the bottom row is very much non-standard thanks to the odd sized spacebar (6.5u).  If you're wanting a cheapie set, look at Tai hao and HK gaming.

I have the white on white FC660M. I think it looks great but I'd like a little more visual separation between the alphas and the mods. Is there anywhere I can get just a set of mods for it in a medium grey-ish colour? The only colours I can find (full sets) are black, navy and white, which I don't hink would look so great mixed together in a white case kbd.
