Realforce Hi-Pro so I can harvest its organs.

Ever since seeing the IBM Multistation with its Alps Hipro caps, I've seriously been tempted at doing a full stem swap mod on some Realforce Hipro caps...
...
Yes, seriously.
That would be...a fun process
I was planning on swapping the switches and caps onto my 55g 87u, but now I'm not sure if it's better to do that, or just put on sliders for SA caps...
At least that method leaves me with two boards I will actually use )
Yeah, I kind of like the squared off look of hi-pro caps compared to SA, but SA would definitely be the easier and more accessible way to do it!
Flux, switch tools and some o-rings courtesy of MechanicalKeyboards.com, you rock guys.

I need to pick up some switch opening tools from them. I use my own homemade switch opening tools, but since they are made from galvanized steel that isn't too hard, I'm constantly having to bend them back into shape. Eventually they're going to be irreparable.
Gonna look into those.
