KBT Race II
« on: Wed, 19 November 2014, 14:51:11 »
Most of the keys will be able to be replaced by most of the keycap sets, but I am probably going to make my own set over Winter Quarter break and I will be posting updates on how that is coming along. It's currently in the mail and should be here by the end of the week. If anyone has any suggestions or what to look for, please let me know!

Expect updates within the coming weeks for Race II surprises :) I know it's not the most popular keyboard, but I know people out there would like a dedicated Race II Keycap set! :D

Thanks!

+1 for this. I am a race 2 owner and would really like to see some keycap sets.

Though before buying this keyboard, I've already changed my mindset that if I would ever change keycaps, I would almost always never be able to change everything. I'm happy to just be able to change the alphanumeric ones.

Same here. Good to see some others looking at making caps available.

I'm going to be taking out the LEDs to replace the switches soon and I'll be making a build thread hopefully in the near future. Finals are in two weeks and I am getting too antsy to start working on the key cap design and mods to the keyboard.

Just throwing this out. My switch 3 (replaces home with print screen) doesn't seem to be working when I enable it. Not sure exactly why. My other switches work, though.

By the way, I had some custom WASD Keycaps made for the Race 2.

Here's the album: http://imgur.com/gallery/ibELS

These are the same pics I posted in a portal IC thread.

I think the race is pretty well respected, it's just not super popular  :thumb:
