Title: Keycap Holder
Post by: Frigid on Tue, 26 May 2015, 17:24:17

Does anyone know where i can get a keycap holder for artisans? I dislike having them just sit around without some order and i am afraid i might lose them.

Adjustable clear tackle box?

I think Gas Mask Keycap / Hot Keys Project used to sell a holder, too. Can't find the info now.

Best holder is keyboard, though.

I've heard of the container store. A friend told me it is a very dangerous place to go as you may end up with a hell of a credit card bill and OCD because it makes you want to organize everything. She has kids, though.

I've gotten a few different ones from taobao and it never had much luck they are either broken in shipping or they don't fit together quite like they should.
