Artisan or custom Alps key caps makers out there?
« on: Sat, 03 December 2016, 02:27:16 »
Are there key cap makers or Artisan cap makers who have already mastered the skill of producing precision caps for Alps switches? And perhaps even have produced some?

I might have missed their existence.

There have been a few, supposedly there isn't much demand.  Nubbinator made the Dolly v2s below for the Alpine Winter GB and I want to say Impending Doom did some blanks.  Pretty sure there were elephants for another keyset GB too...

Ugh, I know. They're just sitting in a bag rotting too. I should have brought them to Utah so I could actually ship them out cheap. Meant to sell them to buy a better pressure pot.
