Title: Best place to get blank keycaps for customising
Post by: kakakowie on Mon, 03 February 2014, 09:22:29

Would anyone recommend a site to order blank keycaps that are suitable for customisation?

I only know of wasdkeyboards, they seem to be the only site selling individual blank keycaps.

I also have a filco tenkeypad and this apparently has a row 5 key profile that is higher than any other key. Is it possible to get these or will i have to make do with row 4 keycaps?

Thanks,
Lionel

Thanks for the replies,

I forgot to mention that i'm using a Filco Tenkeyless and would like to match the profile as much as possible.
It gives me a headache just looking at all the different key profiles and sizes.

The one from banggood seems ok, save for the transparent strip on the caps and scroll lock.
