I had a batch of custom keycaps come in from FK Custom, so I decided to do a quick side-by-side comparison with them. Don’t forget, their custom keycap contest is still going on for another week or so!

Seems like a pretty cool service. I’ve been considering building a low profile keyboard and it’s been difficult to find anything except blank sets. Prices seem reasonable too (MBK PBT laser engraved):

Ex: $54.00 for 40 keys, $73.20 for 60 keys, $97.60 for 80 keys, $15.00 for 10 keys

Oh, neat! It would be fun to make keycaps with my full layout. Or, I dunno, something weird like shavian orthography

I already have a set from FK Custom. The laser engraving is very good, clean lines, nothing blurred or rippled or so. It’s definitely high quality.
