So I looove the look of a Cherry Profile Stepped Caps lock
Adapter, but am bummed that it’s only available as a
Staggered Stem!
I saw there’s a mod one can do. Cutting
off the stem isn’t too hard, but aligning the keycap to the
rest of the row is very difficult to get right. I’d like to
make the process easier, and easier to go back to a
staggered stem as well.
Parts can be made-to-order from
Shapeways.
Streamlined Mod Process
- Order a part from Shapeways, receive part.
- Cut off the stem from your caps lock keycap. Surface should be flat/flush.
- Glue adapter to the bottom of the keycap. The adapter would be a snug fit, so all alignment is done with the mating of the adapter and keycap.
-
You’re done!
Would this be something you guys would be interested in?
Some images below. 3D isn’t to scale yet, just wanted to quickly mock this up:
Version 1, LED cutout for windowed caps lock, will chamfer the LED cutout to minimize shadows in the indicator
Highlighted in blue are the surfaces you put the glue on to adhere to keycap.
Version 1 (left) converts to center stem.
Version 2 (right) converts back to staggered stem.
