Look for deals.  I found a used great condition white HHKB with box & official carrying case for $150 shipped on eBay a couple months ago.

Some but not all of the keys crossover.  Escape and the same sized bottom rows are definitely interchangeable.  A lot of real force users seem to message me looking to replace their Windows keys.  This is the same as a HHKB function key.

Unfortunately I don't have a Realforce to use for pics.  Unfortunately, Topre seems to have stopped making blank cap sets specifically for Realforce a couple years ago.

Mods just came in! They look great. A little scratching on the tab key (you can sort of see in the photo), but besides that every key looks perfect. Would recommend if you're on the fence about it  :thumb:

I just got an Essence of kirkle BBv2 so if you could make blue keys to match I'd be all over them. I'd like to see [;/' for arrow keys, and wasd.

Nice!  I plan to hit the blue spectrum harder than Breaking Bad once I get some new blank keys to work with.

On that note, I am actively seeking custom jobs until the end of the month since I have free time with no blank stock. 

If you are willing to send me your keys, I work quickly and will have them shipped out within 48 hours of receiving them.  Message me with what you want done.
