Title: Hey hello! SlashCamp here!
Post by: SlashCamp on Wed, 06 August 2014, 11:16:48

Holla holla get dolla.
I'm SlashCamp. Web developer by day, keyboard aficionado by... always. Currently in a relationship with a Ducky Mini, Mx Browns with white lights. I heard about this forum a couple of months ago and I've finally decided to take the plunge to join you people as more than a lurker.

So I've got a quick question since I believe you are pretty knowledgeable about your caps. I've been searching for blank golden keycaps for about 4-5 months now and the only hint about their existence is from a group buy from 2012 on GH. Does anyone know about a vendor that sells caps that match my description, alternatively, is it possible to dye silver zinc to a golden colour?

Welcome Slashcamp.

I know there are gold-toned zinc caps, but I haven't seen blanks. MKC makes an alpha set thought (link (http://www.geekkeys.com/mkc-gold-metal-zinc-37-keyset/)).

Hope that helps and welcome to GeekHack!

SlashCamp, just be careful of "schmelting" with that gold lust. Anyways, welcome!

Welcome to Geekhack!

These are not blank, but ... http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=39262.0

And the images won't load for me, but Google seems to indicate these are gold: http://www.thisnext.com/item/CA58A09F/ZIP-ANG-Keyboard-gold-plated
