They do look nice. They can be even better if there is a slight curve to the top surface of the caps. Any way to do this?

Well, they are made with aluminium aren't they?

The two other keycaps made by alu, are the vortex and the MKC ones.

They each go for at least 15$ piece, and 18 if they are engraved/lazered. Your price puts your key at just above 10 dollar.

EDIT:*will you consider doing other designs or another batch of those and sell them here? :D
