Hi there, I somehow lost track of how or when one can chose a keycap set. I’ve got, that all keyboards get sent with qwerty caps and others will be produced and sent later, though. I’m not a backer, but just ordered a Model 01, if that makes a difference. So, will I get asked at some point in tim…

At some point in the future, keycap sets will indeed be available at https://shop.keyboard.io . Best, Jesse

Sorry, need to keep it short, before work fills out a missing persons report with the police :slight_smile: Could you please summarize, what the currently decided on workflow was for getting non-qwerty keycaps to customers for backers and/or now-orderers . I’m sure, I’ve read about it in the backer…

[image] Runic keycap layout Model 01 Layouts The latest backer update has a section on this, which I’ll quote here to make things easier: As we’ve mentioned before, all keyboards are shipping with QWERTY keycaps. Any extra keycap sets we owe you will ship later under se…

Thanks, cal. That’s the part I could still recall. I found, what I tried to remember, though. It wasn’t an update, where I read it, but the campaign description: (The standard keycaps will have QWERTY legends; if you’d prefer blank keycaps you can choose them as an option on your backer survey.) …

The kickstarter campaign was quite a while ago, and very optimistic. No plan survives first contact, etc. :slight_smile: As far as I’m aware (and mind you I’m a volunteer and not speaking for Keyboardio, just repeating what I’ve heard), the status of keycaps is: There are not currently any other…

That’s all just about right. The factory was supposed to get me final pricing on the keycap sets this week, but did not. I believe they’ve started the injection molding for them, even though we haven’t finalized the order size.

Thanks, the three of you! Those translucent ones look yummy, too, but might be lacking in contrast for my use case. My current plan is being free of keycap labels and categorize like vowels, consonants, punctuation, braces, etc. and assign them keys colours accordingly. I guess, the runic ones are …

I am assuming the black set would do this. I’ve been wondering about dremelling. I’m planning at the moment to get a clear set and work out stenciling labels on and then poly coating the keys. This may involve using a vinyl cutter to make positives of the symbols and then painting the whole key set…

Wow, you’re really prepared to invest time and efford. Admirable! Lazy old me thought more in the lines of - depending on the black layer’s thickness - milling away somewhat of a circle, polish it and be done. I actually wouldn’t mind it looking worn off and being a bit unevenly distributed, as lon…
