Where to buy AZERTY keycaps
« on: Thu, 26 November 2015, 09:05:06 »
Hi !
I've been looking for an AZERTY keycaps set for a long time but never found something ...
I talked to azhdar (since he is french like me) about this, and he has a nice keycaps set "SA Retro" with french layout, but he told me that the only way to get it is by groups buys, or someone who have it and want to sell it, meh :(
I bought a keycaps set on WASD keyboard but the keycaps are, for me, not the best (thin, not the best quality) so I just want to throw them.
If someone knows some website, or anyone who sells these kind of keycap, let me know !
Thanks !

EDIT : something like this with french http://keypuller.com/granite/ would be amazing :)

Thanks for the reply !
I have a Pok3r and it cames with these keycaps, but I don't like how you can see the Cherry thing under (like this https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/3hevyw/pretty_appalling_quality_on_the_vortex_pbt/)

A lot of SP sets (like granite that you mentioned) get sold with an international kit that includes AZERTY keys. You'll have to buy the entire int kit in most cases though.
demik will never leave.

Unless he gets banned.

You'd either want sculpted profile (e.g. Cherry profile) in AZERTY layout (which is rare), or uniform profile (e.g. uniform SA or DSA) which would allow you to swap keycaps around to any layout as each keycap is exactly the same shape.

Or buckling spring - they are uniform profile :)
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
