It's only overkill because I don't like black doubleshots, you should see my 6 sets of beige Cherry doublehsots

Now you just need a subforum and a poll asking who the number one collector of beige Cherry doubleshots is :clap2:
I think I'm done with beige for a while, seven sets should do it. I do love the beige ANSI dye subs though, wish I had more of those.

Yeah that's me, I see you're way ahead of me here. Thanks for the welcome. :smile:

So you got yours from the CM website? I notice it's not mucked up with Chinese letters like mine was. Either way: great keyboard!

Yeah I had to wait since Q4 2011. I actually lost my patience and ordered a similar Leopold that same day, but surprisingly CM stocked it.

reaper · « **Reply #258 on:** Mon, 13 February 2012, 21:32:53 »

Welcome to Geekhack and if you like keycaps then take a look in the Group Buy or Classifieds section. Lots of them there. Good luck and if you want my advice, get a second job to support your new found hobby... 'cuz it's gonna cost ya.

What keyboard did you put them on? I remember reading in the description of those keycaps that they MIGHT not fit all types of keyboards, that left me a bit scared.
What's your impression of them, fit-wise?

These are on a Filco TKL MJ1. The fit is awesome. Didn't feel like I had to squeeze the keys in there to fit, they just plopped right down and in with the necessary force. The feel of the keycaps are even more amazing. Love them a lot. Hardest part was working with the stabilizers, but to be honest it's more time-consuming than difficult.

Yep, got the 87 key set. These keycaps do NOT have the media keys engraved on them, just the standard lettering and symbols.

Some more stuff to add to my arsenal.

Blank arrow cluster caps to go with that Machine Green ClickClack:

Blank Cherry MX Esc key:

I really like how it turns out. Now I can only wish all my keycaps were in that color. :roll:

Hey reaper, are those white ninja caps the ones available from everywhere, or are those the Filco ones? Also, your camo board would look sick with mostly that green color and some random beige, tan, and brown ones thrown in for camo effect, nudge nudge wink wink.

reaper · « **Reply #279 on:** Thu, 16 February 2012, 16:01:06 »

^ I think I got those white ninja keycaps from imsto (PBT by KBC lol). As for the camo board, I tend to like a more uniform color look instead of different colors all over the place... but that's just me. =P

emptyk · « **Reply #280 on:** Thu, 16 February 2012, 16:05:05 »

^ yeah, me too, that's why I'm looking to buy that ninja set. my keyboard currently looks like a fashion designer's worst nightmare. bah.

so, I assume that set would fit my WASD keyboard without any problems, right?

reaper · « **Reply #281 on:** Thu, 16 February 2012, 18:41:29 »

Yeah, you shouldn't have any problem with it.

2 special things

boredgunner · « **Reply #285 on:** Fri, 17 February 2012, 13:21:25 »

That is a nice board... and those gold keys are awesome. I added some new ones today - an Escape sign key as well as the Geekhack custom keys. The GH ones probably won't stay there.

Next I'll probably add red arrow keys to replace the normal ones, as well as a custom text tilde key (I haven't decided on the text yet), and maybe a custom FN key.

useless_people · « **Reply #286 on:** Sat, 18 February 2012, 12:57:04 »

So...when, where, and how can I buy custom keycaps such as these?

I believe its 15. Ripster has a thread in his sub forum where you can spam your way to 15.

Brilliant Thanks!

Here is my idea - I am prob going to have WASD laser this up, but was curious at the possibility for a doubleshot.

useless_people · « **Reply #298 on:** Mon, 20 February 2012, 22:42:14 »

This may seem random but reaper, which keyboard do you like better overall? The filco, leopold, or CMstorm? Asking because I saw you on some other forum but can't remember what you said.

reaper · « **Reply #299 on:** Mon, 20 February 2012, 23:36:53 »

Although Filco's QC seems to have slipped somewhat over the years, I'd still buy one over the other two. I'm typing on a Filco "Otaku" browns right now that I bought almost 2 years ago and it still feels like the first day I brought it out of the box.
