They're the kind of caps I would never use. I'd put them on a pedestal for all to see, and so that nobody could tarnish their beauty.

Definitely a good thing. I would be scared to damage them as well.

they hold up pretty well, i worry less taking a key puller to them than i do with standard keys, im shipping the set with a bunch of extras anyway though in case anything happens over time, but i think they will be pretty durable, not as a daily driver perhaps but they are certainly more than functional and i would have no fear of them being used for extended periods

Big thanks to BunnyLake for doing these for me. At first he said it would take a couple weeks to do a full set, but he went into beast mode and somehow got them done in like 2 days. These are beautiful!

Bunny, your keycaps are beautiful as always! It brings a smile to Tommy Lee Jone's face, and that is no easy feat, as you can see from below :))
