Title: Dolch Gray Keycaps?
Post by: Bazzy999 on Thu, 06 October 2011, 00:11:32
Not sure if post title is correct or not regarding color/type. What type of keys are they? Custom job? Any availability? I think they look really good in that color combo.

That's Geekhack doubleshot MO#1

They are ordered from Signature Plastics.

Yup, that's round 1 of the now-infamous Group Buy currently in round 4.  You could make a want-to-buy thread in the classifieds subforum, asking for a Round 1 set.

@hashbaz, they are actually different. MO#1 have off-setted letterings and MO#3 and 4 are centered.

The image in the OP looks just like what was ordered in this thread (http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?11998-104-US-ANSI-Double-shot-replacements-for-Filco-Order), which I thought was round 1.  What does MO stand for?

Hey, that looks like my old keyboard. Did I sell that to you?  And yes, that was GO #1 (by far the best one, IMO).

No, I just grabbed one of the images from the thread.  I really like the look too.  Much nicer looking than the all-caps modifiers from Round 3.  I'm not sure what if anything I'm going to get from Round 4 yet.
