Ah ok, thanks for the heads up!

This is a good idea, I will consider it. Thanks!

Picking the Alps layout I wanted for my Clueboard was a long and painful process. At first I wanted to use my AEK II caps, but realized I couldn't because of the right Shift and bottom row (Clueboard doesn't support 1.5u mods). Then I decided to just go with SP's stabs. Later on I scored a set of M0116 caps, which provided the missing Shift I'd need, but that still left me the problem of the bottom row.
I've decided to with the AEK stabs after all, even though that means I will not be able to use Tai-Hao or SP Alps caps. As for the bottom row, I will have some gaps with the thinner mods, but I'm willing to make that sacrifice.
Even if I wanted to use the weird modern Alps stabs, I'd be limited to what skully has on his site, and the only other caps I'd want to use besides AEK is Alpine Winter. :-\

sorry if this is necro, and it's better than nothing, but I have a Matias laptop pro and the stock keycaps are pretty bad. Thin, infilled ABS.

Thanks for the hint, I think this problem is resolved for me, because clueboard added their own version of Alpine Winter, that I like a lot. :)
Now my only problem left is, that there seems to be no aluminum plate for alps switches that fits the clueboard. :(
How do people use the clueboard with alps switches?
