Hello All
Following on from our sale of blank keycaps (order@qwerkeys.co.uk) , we have now made up some samples of infilled and engraved keycaps. We will be soon offering this as a service.

Please see below and let us know what you think:





Thanks!
Sleabo

That lambda is sexy.

really what can I have and how much do you want? Can you do full sets yet?

If you copy dolch expect to have a million orders..

Dirge, I've got an order in to get some of their blanks. Can't wait for these though!

nice one ped

I do like the yellow and blue, how close are they to cherry legends? Really mate, do full sets

They are Cherry Profile Replicas. You can have whatever font you want. Full sets- Im working on it!

Awesome looking.

These look incredible, cannot wait until they become available, what kinda price will the be?

Whatever font we want, uh ? I'd love having a set with the Dina font.

Beautiful results, just wondering on how long the infilling can keep up. On my steelseries 6gv2 the paint is fading pretty quickly sadly Will there be some sort of finishing move on them to add further protection ?

@Sleabo
Will it be possible to have beige/dark beige keycaps (like on those vintage Cherry keyboards)
with custom text/symbols in black?
And how much would such a single keycap cost?

What colour options are there? Are the sample keys the colours available, or can more options be chosen?

Interesting. You'll have to give us a rundown of design services and costing - I can see myself having a few things made if it's reasonable.

Yup. I'll just register my CC with you. I'm looking forward to having a more "lazy"-friendly list though. I can't stand having to figure stuff out for myself =p.

I see people talking Dolch and vintage cherry. That makes me want to do a happy dance.

HI
Hoping to have the cost around £2 per keycap if you have your artwork ready. If you need us to turn your design into a usable artwork then we will charge a fee of £5 - for example if you have a sketch or a logo of something.
Keycap colours available

Legend colours- black,white,red, blue,green,yellow and more available over time.

Are they all row 4 or could we say have arrow keys and the block above it?

If you did that or an F1-12 row setup?

Dirge
all colours and profiles are shown in that GH thread and here marketplace-f11/on-sale-now-blank-coloured-keycaps-t2475.html
So, yes we have Row 1-4

They look great.
Now If they just where double shot and maybe a tiny bit better centered..it would be perfect

What file format(s) does QWERKeys prefer for artwork?
Do you have a key-top template with the engravable/infillable area identified?

Just to remind you that you haven't uploaded a photo of the blank green keycap to Deskthority yet.

Dina?

Helvetica Rulez.

Steelseries keys ARE unusually bad but these look good!

And the coating would not make much sense here.

late to the party, but [b]damn[b], that's sexy!

Cool to see the engraved ones being painted yet not infilled.. Do they/you do front engraving as well?

And still I will wait for PBT... But the caps look really great though.

And zulios: Dina? you're using a bitmap font? ugh. I'm still looking for a good Monospace font without any problems with Bold characters. The fonts I really like are Andale Mono and Inconsolata, but at Andale Mono the bold uppercase K looks bad, and with Inconsolata there are other letters with the same problem. And I need Unicode Chars. Lots of them. Now I'm thinking about opening a thread in the OT section...

Have you tried DejaVu Sans Mono yet, or Consolas (or Lucida Console), if you have access to a Windows PC? These are my main Emacs fonts, by the way. Both fonts have "slashed" zeros, as well...

I'd personally love to see Inconsolate. It's beautiful (although I do not use it any longer, because it lacks some Unicode chars).
