Title: So I'm building my ninja keyboard
Post by: nukec on Sun, 29 June 2014, 16:47:14

This is the keyboard I am trying to build:

Keyboard: Poker II.
What do I need: My goal is to get blank PBT keys (DCS) and heart keycaps for R3(impossible?).

I am having difficulties getting blank black pbts, I checked all vendors no one has anything(ebay out of stock, MK out of stock,... etc). I cant open a topic on market place to buy them from other member..

I found a keypop heart black keys here: http://www.keypop.net/product/8-bit-heart-keycap-single
But they are for row 1, which would't stand nice in R3 I guess.

Anyone with any suggestions, any hidden vendors, or just wait for qtan and company to get them back in stock?

Yeah that would probably be the easiest thing i guess. I know that Imsto does a few dyesubs but idk if he does custom orders!

you can try to get custom printed caps from WASD.

i'm pretty sure they can do color printing now http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/index.php/gallery
