Title: Realforce 103UB Keycaps?
Post by: imagine7xy on Mon, 01 November 2010, 11:28:32

Hello, I type in both QWERTY/DVORAK so I was hoping there would be a way to get a set of blank keycaps for the board - perhaps not the entire board but just where the two overlap. Does anyone know if there is such a thing, or if the Blank keycaps that elitekeyboards.com sells for the HHKBP2 would work on other Topre boards the same?

The HHKB blanks would fit.  I bought a spare set for my RealForce 87U.

Great, do they match the color of the Realforce (UB models) as well? I am going to buy some then.

Yes. Since you're buying blanks, it won't matter much, but the HHKB has a slightly different font than the RF line.

Well, buying blanks is always better than shooting blanks...

...I always say...

Looks similar, but larger.

Larger on the HHKB, that is.  The modifier keys are the same, though.
