I'm looking for ideas to create my own legends on Model M key caps.

Does anybody have any good ideas?

Agreed. All great ideas for desired keys.

I was too vague in my original post: Does anybody have any ideas on how to make IBM Model M key caps?

I've tried laser-printing onto clear mailing labels and it work fairly well, but eventually the labels come off.

I wonder if it's possible to send some blank M keycaps to a company that does dye-sub or uv printing on keycaps

Mega Man caps on Model M would be awesome
