Holy crap Kyrtone. I just read through the entire thread. These are without a doubt some of the most original and impressive artisan designs I've seen. Please keep making caps and being incredibly innovative! I hope that I can eventually get my hands on some of your work.

that looks fantastic! was wondering though if the "Power" symbol(that's what it is isn't it) could be replaced by a small  "gemstone" embedded into the material so it lets light through. once the keyboard is powered then the gem would look like it's glowing

Thats the idea actually on how to make it glow and currently in the process of how to do so for now which is why it is located underneath the led bulb for northside switch positioned mkb. Unfortunately, the power sign is embed to the original design and cannot be replaced  :-[

If you can somehow make it like legos and stackable.... my mind will be blown

(basically like how some lego pieces and fit the X shape rods through while remain stackable)

Unfortunately, only 1 button can accommodate a lego. This is because to get a 2x2 button in a normal cap, spacing would be an issue and would not look good aesthetically.
