Title: Any Custom Key Caps For Model M
Post by: Dirty Bint on Sun, 18 April 2010, 18:06:40

Hi,

I am probably asking this 10 years too late but are there any suppliers of custom key caps for Model M's? If so, would anyone please be able to provide a link or details of what is available etc.

I was thinking about some colour coded key caps for the Esc amd the 4  arrow keys but would be interested in other options.

Try Unicomp for some blank, white ones...then go buy yourself some Rit dye.  ;)

Try asking ClickClack if he can turn some out for you. The true definition of the word Custom.

Colored ESCs are nice.  Got these IBM compatible keycaps from another Geekhacker but I don't know where he got them from.

I am working as fast as possible to get them ready.
