jdcarpe is currently talking to SP about Alps caps. Apparently SP is having issue with the larger sized caps though. I know the Kingsaver required the owner to buy a specific board to harvest caps/stabs from. I'm not really sure what Calavera is planning here but the TKL Alps projects might go to the harvest plan if we can't get anyone to make caps.
Ok lets be realistic about this one, no keycap GB's no good sales for that particular keyboard, right? not fault of the people that are trying to make the TKL and mini factor happen with alps, but having a keyboard without options for caps is practically nothing.
Take the best looking Korean KB, with the nice looking casing bottom design such the MX mini SE or the Trixk, and then decorate it with old, used, yellowed keycaps. Some keycaps fit, then some don't, so you end up with mix of 2 boards.....
I actually was excited about the TKL project, though well don't have to be full aluminum casing, just the bottom would look cool or if price is not way too high then I might get the top casing too, but now knowing that I have to be getting keycaps as leftovers.... I rather spend the money on next small factor LZ keyboard, at least it will look good with new keycaps on it, and we have so many options for keycaps these days, GMK, BSP, DSA....
