Title: Hello from Iowa
Post by: JKWang on Thu, 04 August 2016, 19:57:50

Hi Folks,

Just got my first mechanical keyboard and just found about this awesome community. So I would like to say hi to everyone and introduce myself.

I just bought a minila air with red switch and I instantly fell in love with it. As many of you did once I got a mechanical keyboard I stared looking for awesome keycaps.

Here is my newbie question: does anyone know what profile is the minila? Looks DCS to me but want to make sure.

I know it's hard to find keycaps so anyone has any suggestions?

Thanks

Welcome to Geekhack!

The MiniLa Air unfortunately has a non-standard layout, so most keycap sets won't fit.

You're biggest problems are going to be the left Ctrl and both Shift keys.  One idea might be to find a set that has some blank keycaps of the appropriate size and use those blanks in those positions.
