New PBT 37-key keycaps in different colors!

[berserkfan]

I have two keyboards. Initially I wanted to create a 'heroic' (light colored) and an 'evil' (dark) keyboard. You can see the 'evil' keyboard in the pictures! Do they look like Zergs?

I thought about Autobot vs Decepticon also. My favorite Autobot being Bumblebee, but I also liked Sunstreaker and Sideswipe. (They were, if you don't know, Yellow, Yellow-Black and Red-Orange respectively.)

Zergs, as we (we are geeks, right?) all know, are purple, fuschia, magenta, blue, black. (I don't have flourescent green, but it would be really nasty)

Obviously, the original intention was to play on keyboard Heroic when I was playing the good guy, and keyboard Evil when doing evil things.

I took the photos on the same day as... I was reminded of the rent by my roommates. And April Fool's Day was over.

But now I have blown a gigantic amount of money on this hobby. So if you want my keycaps, PM ME.

These are new and unused, laser etched PBTs. (I haven't typed on them - just arranged around to look good/ feel good.)

Having blown my bank account, I have decided to let go of the 'evil' keycaps before I do myself any more evil. (It's also to stop me from playing certain races in certain overly-addictive games)

contact me if you are interested in the blue, lilac, purple and fuschia/ magenta. The colors are as shown in the pictures.

Moderator, if I have posted in the wrong thread, please let me know. This is my first time posting.

You need 59 more posts before you can sell things. This is also the wrong subforum for this; it needs to go in the classifieds. You need 60 posts to sell open a new for sale thread there. Sorry man.

hi

can I transfer the post? or should I delete and entirely build a new one?

This thread will probably get locked. Save it and post it up as a new FS thread when you hit 60 posts.

This will get closed by a mod if you don't do it yourself. You'd have to build a new post when you reach 60 posts.

I'm busy posting now. It's easy to post sensible replies, given that I am genuinely interested in most of these topics (am a longtime input peripheral fan - that includes mice and trackballs).

If you modify the OP to remove mention of a sale, we can change this to a discussion on your keyboard ideas. For instance, are those laser etched PBT caps? Where'd you get the idea for Heroic and Dark? Can you arrange the Dark keys how you imagined them and take a picture?

[Moosecraft]

Why haven't you bought any modifiers, I think it looks weird with 1x1 keys as Control etc.

[berserkfan]

Good idea. I'll modify.

BTW I originally had

Zerg + Decepticon vs Autobot (black, orange, yellow,red).

No prizes for guessing my age.

nice color combo.. but needs a bit of work in respect to the modifiers...

[berserkfan]

that's what this website is for... I want to find colourful PBT modifiers, and I want them at reasonable cost (not like $10/key).

btw I have also decided to get rid of my red and orange sets as well, although they will be 'slightly used' since they are currently on my keyboard ie for past 3 days. Playing Autobot without Decepticon is just not right.

I have a red-orange-black color scheme that I will upload at some point. I actually love this Autobot keyboard; I just feel very depressed financially.

Why sell immediately after I bought them? You see, I spent over $500 on other sets of keycaps (not pictured; in transit from other parts of the world or else languishing because they didn't fit my intended colour schemes - eg my pastels). It was a serious binge. With over 1000 of these things and two keyboards, I'll probably destroy the Cherry Stems by constantly changing keycaps. I may as well sell at any price that covers my costs

here are more photos.

This is an alternative keycap layout. As you can see, it's intended to resemble a fruit orchard.

And yes, I also want to sell these keycaps. With over 1000+ more keycaps in transit, I have way too many to ever use.

Also note of special interest the caps lock and shift keys. I've managed to damage them (the UV coating?) somehow. What can I do?

[berserkfan]

Didn't want to pull out too many keys, so just arranged a few keys to look at the colour contrast.
