I don't think that is a complete set for the Filco, unless I'm missing something.

That set is the appropriate layout for the keyboard in the OP's post, but AFAIK Filcos have 1.25x modifiers, so yes you'll be short a bunch of modifiers

Post by: Photoelectric on Sun, 09 February 2014, 11:38:25: The BSP dye sub set doesn't have 1.25x modifiers or a spacebar. If you want similar looking Cherry profile thick PBT keycaps that would fit a TKL or a full-sized Filco, your best bet is to get a blank set from IMSTO (http://geekhack.org/index.php?board=115.0). It will have all the proper sized caps for a standard Filco.

Post by: gameaholic on Mon, 10 February 2014, 13:04:04: Awesome I'm basically looking for the Originative two tone set but with fixed tab, extra stepped capslock, and windows 8 logos. I'm in for at least 2.

Contacted him, but he only has the set with a white caps lock key which is a bit odd.

Want this so badly:

Post by: berserkfan on Thu, 13 February 2014, 00:56:45: btw, SpamRay has been trying to sell a similar set, except it's got legends. Maybe he can give you a tip or two.

Yes :)

When you do could you please add the option to get blank win caps if you decide to use the win8 logo on the sets with legends?.

I simply can not force myself to like that win8 logo.

If I'm not missing any thing, the image that you quoted is Imsto blank.
It is the one that you are looking for - Otaku for Filco.
You can see in the right top corner the white cap locks with center stem and the stepped cap locks with off-center stem.
