Filco tenkeyless + keycaps
« on: Tue, 06 December 2011, 20:26:27 »
Hey all, i'm looking to get into my first mechanical.  I LOVE this one, [ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ] 34146[/ATTACH] except I want matching orange WASD as well.  I wanna go with MX Blacks or Reds.  Where can I find these keycaps?  I presume any Filco tenkeyless with the switches I prefer will be fine?  New and used boards/caps are ok with me.

Welcome to Geekhack!

For the TenKeyLess board you can get a Leopold off of EK for about 110 or a Filco from Amazon for 150ish, also just watch the classifieds.

As for the keycaps, I believe the ones pictured above are from the round 3 group buy that you can still obtain through the active round 4 thread in the Group Buy forum.

Also if you are interested I am doing an interest check for a more accurate recreation of the Dolch style dark gray/ gray with white legends that are more accurate to the original keycaps the above picture ones are trying to replicate.

Hope that helps!

I have part of an orange gamer kit, included wasd, but not the arrow set and other keys are missing.

But you could always just get a complete set from round 4 GB.
No, he’s not around. How that sound to ya? Jot it down.
