Title: Ergodox Keycaps
Post by: rsantos97 on Thu, 04 July 2013, 23:37:32
I just finished putting together my ergodox from the round 2 massdrop recently and am running it with the DSA keycaps on brown switches. I wanted to change some of the key caps though to make it better and of course to bling it out a bit.  I was just going to change out the escape key, shift keys, the Windows keys and the alt and ctrl key caps using a blue, red and dark grey scheme to go along with the rest of the black keys.  But then while checking out ebay I stumbled upon feng's zinc key cap set and had the idea of changing out the letter keys for those.  I always wanted to rock some of those key caps.  Anyways, what do you guys think about that idea.  The only thing that has me hesitating is how am I going to find the home row.  Right now I am rocking a set of deep bowl DSA caps from the groupbuy here, just like on the Kinesis and it works great but how would it work with the zinc's.

well most of the zinc caps out there are OEM profile which is way different from DSA and even different from DCS and Cherry. something to consider.
