Title: Need help in my search of keycaps
Post by: fierran123 on Wed, 31 December 2014, 01:33:49
Here is an image of the keyboard I'm using:

Here is a comparison of a standard sized 118 mm WASD keycap to the smaller 114 mm Das keycap that came with my board:

I'm looking to buy a keycap set, and I'm about to pull the trigger except for one small problem; the spacebar in every PBT keycap set I've found has been the 118 mm one - even custom keycap vendors have them only at that size.

Is there any way at all to get a hold of a 114 mm spacebar? I've been looking around for quite a while and found nothing, so maybe you guys have some ideas :p

Thanks!

Here (http://www.maxkeyboard.com/max-universal-cherry-mx-translucent-clear-black-full-keycap-set-top-print.html) is a full set (unfortunately the only thing I could find) that has 3 different spacebars, one of which is a 6x

Thanks for the reply, are those keycaps PBT or ABS? I can't seem to find that information on their website :(

Ah shoot. I'm guessing I'm out of luck for PBT caps then :/
