I am going to get blank key-caps from Unicomp so that I can dye-sub them myself with custom combinations. However, I still want to use the same legends and fonts that are found on the Model M's and Unicomp keys.

Where is the best place that I can find these sheets?

Custom dye-sub? One of my favourite things!

As for matching Unicomp's own legends: a bit of trial and error seems appropriate! They use a variant of Helvetica. And everything about their alignment is arbitrary / done by hand.

Search on Etsy for dyesub. Here's one:

Etsy's braindead login captcha system has frozen me out so I can't find the name of the guy in Japan I bought mine from, years back. Some hard to search for name like Good or Nice Keyboards I think.

Edit: here we go. Searched DT instead. DecentKeyboards.
