Doubleshot keycap alternative ?
« on: Sun, 31 October 2010, 04:46:55 »
Ok just spotted this very unique looking keycaps

Another fun thing is the relgendable keycaps. I worked out my preferred layout (using a combination of Cherry’s software and Autohotkey) and then printed out some labels.

Each keycap has a see through plastic cover top. To protect the letterings from fading ? Looks much more durable to doubleshot if you ask me :X

But then again probably not as clear as a doubleshot :x

Could this also possibly be the poor mans alternative to the Optimus ?? roflcakes.


Rippy add to your wiki >:X

Isn't it something called relegendable keycaps? I thought signature plastic has that option.

sigh, where as im not a big fan of typing much on relengable caps, they were good replacements for my function keys on my filco.
