Title: Cherry Profile modifier novelty caps?
Post by: tbc on Tue, 24 September 2013, 01:27:36
Out of curiosity, are most novelty caps OEM profile?

I've seen cherry profile metal spacebars, but not much else that was obviously cherry profile.  I was looking at the polycarb 1.25x portal caps and thought they would make an awesome replacement for the winkeys, but maybe not with a thick pbt set.

any interesting 1.25x cherry profile keys?

Other than some 1x row E profile (top row) there isn't much Cherry profile novelty keys. For PBT to do dyesubs the minimum order is very high like 1000 pieces for single key size order, BSP is less but they don't have 1.25 size yet. For doubleshots the only company that does Cherry profile are not accepting orders for new legend tooling yet. We could do pad printing (which does have advantages like multicolor/lighter color on dark plastic) on a minimum of 300 keys, but most people don't like that.

The SP ABS DCS stuff is nearly cherry profile, isn't it? they do a few 1.25 and 1.5s I think, like the Mystery key? I got a couple of 1.25 novelty keys from them, although it is a bit off the true cherry bottom row.

Think the sets that hashbaz ran were Cherry Profile from Imsto. The white and black on red sets that were called Cherry Fundraiser?

I believe the fundraiser was Signature Plastics DCS profile with cherry legends. They only had tooling for GH and the mods or spmething like that. :p
