Modifiying Stepped Caps Lock Keys To Fit Cherry MX Keyboards

Good job! If you ever wanna sell that beige non stepped key from the mystery kishy board... let me know!

In related news, I did the same mod on one of my blank POM sets and the stem kinda broke into many tiny pieces. No idea how that happened, even ripped out a part of the top, which is funny, considering POM should be more forgiving and softer than the the double shot ABS keys?

Thanks but I kinda like this set for it's oddball character.  


That looks very much like real Cherry Corp. or extremely well cloned! Got a pic from the bottom of the keys?

Very nice. Should hunt down that machine!

Might be the same guys who made the keys on my Talent board. Different font on some keys, but molds look like yours. Even has the scoped F and J too.
