Title: Information on profile of deck keycaps?
Post by: Retox on Thu, 17 November 2011, 19:18:50

Since all the keys on the deck keyboard are the same height, I was wondering what that height is in terms of standard cherry keycaps.

Would row 4 keycaps fit on the deck or would they need to be like the height of the homerow.

The TG3 keycaps are significantly more tall.

Here is the "H" key from a cherry G80 and the TG3 Bl82. Enjoy the horrible lighting of my house.

So does that mean that I can use the novelty group buy keycaps anywhere on this board?
