Tigersharkdude, you're a nice guy for offering my most coveted BroBot ever. Let me tell you why I'd give that cap a loving home.
I've been infatuated with the idea of a GID keyboard since before I joined GH. I actually joined just so I could better acquaint myself with the resources I'd need to put together my dream board. And after seeing the gorgeous ghost-white board that Lastpilot (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=65501.0) put together, I'm incensed and inspired to follow in his footsteps. I've already ordered and tried out purple UV LEDs for backlighting the board, and I've ordered the limited variety of GID blank caps that are readily available, from SP, ebay, and some leftovers from another member here on the forums. I've been in talks with SP to start a group buy for a full GID set of blanks, modifiers included, and I hope to move forward with interest checks next month. I love glow in the dark.

When I was a bitty wormling, my parents plastered my entire room in glowing star stickers, and I'd fall asleep to the luminescent green galaxy around me. I had glow in the dark shoes. I once had a glow in the dark mini basketball for shootin' hoops in my room (which didn't help my inevitable total lack of game; thanks a lot nerdy whiteness D: ). My dad found a UV light box for my brother and I so we could play with our fluorescent LEGOs in the dark (https://www.flickr.com/photos/95307996@N03/12038243004) and it was rad. This autumn I went on a 5k glow run, where everyone got sprayed with reactive paints and ran by UV bulbs, and it was a hoot. I've always loved glow. I love thinking about the physics of supra-visible light, and how the world is illuminated in ways we are blind to, except when something reacts to that invisible light. Like phosphorescent materials.
My GID board is my end-game. And I've known that no crowning jewel keyboard is complete without its artisan cap, BroBot or otherwise. So give me a consideration, if you please. I will appreciate that 'bot, guaranteed.
