Where can I buy a full set of caps for my HHKB pro 2?
« on: Mon, 01 July 2013, 08:05:09 »
I looked at EK, but I don't want to order 2 sets because of the short shift.

I should explain I love very colorful keycaps (my qfr is unicorn vomit) so the more colorful the better.

The best thing would be a full set, but if you can only show me a partial one, that's fine too. I can make it work.

Thanks!

Did you scroll right down to the bottom?

If you are after color, well I haven't heard of anyone.

There are people with ClickClack blanks on their boards, or using RF caps, but as you quite rightly pointed out the short shift is a problem so you will need two RF sets.

Yup two sets is the only way. I'm slowly adding more color with clacks, ordered a yellow set from here (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=43270.0) and ordered an orange wasd and few blank reds from EK. Missed out of the enter keys that EK use to have  :(

They do have modifier sets including the left and right shift in orange and yellow:

That sucks. Maybe I'll buy a replacement set (in white, my Hhkb is black), then a set of yellow from EK. Maybe get the replacement set in black with the orange set. That might look slick.

Anyway, thanks for the help.
