Title: [Interest Check] KBC 104 PBT Cherry MX Key Caps UPDATE
Post by: feng on Sun, 04 December 2011, 21:48:37: Anyone interested in KBC 104 PBT Cherry MX Key Caps ?

There're 8 kinds of 104 PBT keys.

IMPORTANT There's an update on this group buy. Some of these keys are not in stock temporarily so I don't know when exactly they will become available. And I added two more kinds of 104 keys for Steelseries 7G keyboard. These 7G sets cost $10 more than the other normal sets.

1) Black Engraved 104 PBT

2) White Engraved 104 PBT

3) Blank White 104 PBT

4) Side Printed White 104 PBT OUT OF STOCK

5) Black on White 104 PBT OUT OF STOCK

6) Dark Gold on Black 104 PBT

7) Dark Gold Side Printed on Black 104 PBT OUT OF STOCK

8) Purple on Black 104 PBT

9) Black Engraved for Steelseries 7G/6GV2 (107 keys included, extras: right shift, backspace, and \| key)

10) Purple on Black for Steelseries 7G/6GV2 (same as above)

11) White Engraved for Steelseries 7G/6GV2 (same as above)

12) Black on White for Steelseries 7G/6GV2 (same as above)

The price would be about $48 for each set. $58 for each 7G and 6GV2 set. Shipping to US costs $3 via USPS first class. Any other countries costs $6 for shipping.

Post your favorite sets of 104 PBT keys in this thred if you are interested. :D

Here's some pictures:

If we could work in those side-printed rainbow keys (http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?23862-My-Filco-is-made-out-of-Smarties), I'd be interested in a set of those as well.

Post by: feng on Wed, 07 December 2011, 19:00:05: Maybe I could just get some 37 set of rainbow keys sold separately. The 104 set actually only has the 37 keys and numeric section in rainbow color, and personally I don't think the rainbow numeric section is good looking.

No, these sets only include a spacebar for Filco. Since Leopold is not that common in China, KBC still has no plan to make some keys for Leopold's keyboard.

Currently there's no such thing, but check out imsto's thick dyesub PBT (http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?25897-here-we-are-thick-dyesub-group) group buy, that's the thickest ones you can get right now. I asked if there's an option for black keys, but he said no. You could try to dye them yourself for thick black PTBs.

You will have a hard time getting new pbt's at that price. These are $51 only a little more then your budget though.

I'm sure they will have blank black for sale in the future. KBC just made blank white no so long ago, so I think blank black should be the next step.

I finally got understood about this question. :S Actually each either 7G or 6GV2 kit comes with 107 keys. There are 3 extra keys: right shift, backspace, and |\ key. So those key sets would fit on both 7G and 6GV2. Thanks for bringing this question manirra!

Basically the white was suppose to turn gray and black, but it turned ugly brown instead. There were also some blotch marks for uneven colors. I will link it once I upload the pics and have a short description about it too.

Lots of other people have had really good success with RIT dye. You should probably practice before you try it on your new, expensive set though.

interested in 12) Black on White for Steelseries 7G/6GV2, these fit other MX mech? WASD and or Filco?

feng did say that they contained 3 extra keys (so 107), and those would be the backspace, big enter, and small right shift in addition to the standard 104.

(so yes, they should fit WASD and filco to the best of my knowledge) :)

Post by: FKSSR on Thu, 09 February 2012, 10:38:14: Is there any chance that blank black keys would be available?

I'd be interested in 87-key sets of blank black and blank white. I could buy 104-key sets if needed.

Thanks!

Cool. Thanks for the info. I have to wait on the white keys until I get my new keyboard anyway. So, at that point, I'll look into getting a couple sets of PBT caps together. I'm also not 100% decided on whether I'll want white engraved keys or blank, actually, now that I think about it. So, I'll decide that. :)

I think those are from Ducky, not KBC. Gotta ask the head of KBC.

Thats pretty much the price for a set of PBT's. Maybe get lucky and score them for $50. Obviously the shipping from over there adds more.

Post by: FKSSR on Sat, 11 February 2012, 14:15:41: Yeah, I really want a blank black 87-key PBT set for $80 or under. The only ones I can find in the US right now is the SP group buy in which they are $110 - which is too much for me.

Would it be useful to make a thread where everyone looking for blank black PBT key sets could post - to show KBC or SP or whoever that they should manufacture them for an "affordable" price? Just wondering if that ever works... :P

You need to find some ducky pbt's. I think pchome has some but not sure if they have blanks. Reaper just posted some pics of a ducky pbt set. Not sure if they are new maybe he can give you a lead where he found them.

Lots of other people have had really good success with RIT dye. You should probably practice before you try it on your new, expensive set though.

It's not a matter of "practice" to get good at it, I took every step very slowly. Total process took me 6+ hours. I probably had a bad batch of dye, and also the caps themselves weren't the best to take up the colors. I just wrote up a thread on it, details to my failed dyed caps here:
