One month old Leopold letter C bit the dust.

Was just typing along when the letter C keycap just up and broke on my leopold tenkeyless.

I just bought this keyboard the beginning of September.  Options?  Should I call up elitekeyboards and see if they have a random c just laying about?

Or should I just order one from WASD?  For the C row, which one should I choose?

Thanks!

If you know ****ens, clearly you can't be American, because everyone knows Americans not literate in the ways of classical literature. (really I'm just jealous I've not got 'round to reading that one yet)

Were I you, I would call up Elitekeyboards, and if that option does not work out, give WASD a ring.

You would need a Row 1 1x1 keycap.

Well, elite keyboards has provided the repla C ment, but thanks as well, WASD, as now I know where to go for some custom keycap action.

To be fair, it was probably a void.  I don't hold elite culpable.  Feces happens.

I really dig the WASD caps.  They are "pre-shined" so they have a smooth yet grippy feel to them.  I can't really decide between the Ducky/KBC caps and the WASD.  The Ducky/KBC caps are durable and have a good sound to them, but the WASD caps have a smooth, buttery feel that really pleasant.  I like it smooth and buttery.

Same here, I like my unicomp keys, but the WASD keys are also good, in another way. I suspect this is the same reason people own more than one keyboard, After a certain level of quality is reached, you start branching out and end up with something that's perhaps equivalently good, but in a different way.

IMHO the old Model M keycaps are the standard to beat... I guess Noppoo keycaps are supposed to be POM which is reputed to be as or more durable than PBT?  Haven't used mine enough to assess if they are as durable.  Check back with me in 20 years or so  I also like, purely for feel, the standard Cherry PBTs but I think the IBM ones have more texture to them which I like.

You would need a Row 1 1x1 keycap.

 I'd like to thank you for providing spare parts. Whenever I swap keycaps on my Filco, I'm always terrified that I'll lose one of the Stabilizer Inserts. I'll be terrified no longer thanks to the fact that I know I can easily get some from you. You're awesome!
