Side printed keycaps

[Jixr]

Hey everyone, I started out with blank keycaps, but recently liked the keys on my QFR stealth with the side printed keycaps and have been looking for another set


I found these on ebay, about $50 shipped,

was wondering if anyone here had any thoughts on these?
( or where I might can find other side printed caps? )

Well they're from qtan, so that's a plus.
The caps themselves seem ok, they aren't dyesub but they aren't trash either.

they say they are PBT, and since they are side printed I don't care if they are pad printed, since they will be on the side.

I've seen feng sell quite a few side printed caps (iirc) including the elusive, almighty rainbow side-printed caps.

yeah, i'm not really into the rainbow thing.

Though I am considering putting my extra keyboard on display for my custom caps. but I only have 4 right now.
and I just swapped out my white blanks for the stock stealth caps on my DD

I bought those caps, I love em. Here is a pic (yes, the font is different than the pic Qtan has...I'm actually happy about that).

texas ftw, Austin here.


Can you determine what kind of way the keys are labled? ( pad print, laser, etc )

[pixel5]

Its hard to say. I think they are lasered based on the color.

sorry for being off topic, but pixel5, that is one NICE keyboard.  font is absolutely gorgeous and i'm totally a blanks snob.
