Speaking of PBT, these thick PBT dye-sub seems quite affordable. http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=37999.0

Thick+Dye-sub.
indeed very competitive price!
Vortex is Taiwan company furthermore....

and then I read the line..... It doesn't fit Leopold.

I think the keycap set kaiserreich is selling (which I have) has the same font, you just can't see it that well since it's like Black on Charcoal Grey.

Something to do with OEM / SP heightm, I've got no clue really but I'm also curious to know the difference between heights. Tried searching with no results.

the PBT side printed are available from Keycool now....
not sure the spacebar can fit to Ducky board or not thou...

but spacebar doesn't have any word on it,
you can still use the old spacebar from you original board.

maybe I will start a bulk of the PBT.....

on the other hand, our bulk order this round is ready to ship,
seller already inform the agent that the parcel will be shipped out in this couple of day. smile.gif

SP one will be close to Cherry height. I so happen brought a SP Double Shot ABS Keycap from Kinesis. They used to use these keycap on older model. See below photos. White is SP Profile, Black one is single shot I think OEM profile

Just taken these photo a moment ago.

Not sure. But my last check on KBC products revealed that they actually still operating and refreshing their PBT/rainbow PBT products. Not too sure bout their dye-sub, so better have a look at IMSTO's store yourself.

red switches are not uncommon, just higher demands.

maybe it's because they feel like cloud of boobs, so everyone wants them. drool.gif
