This thread originally came from DT, but since Ellipse has a thread here, I figured I’d post here as well to make sure we reach the widest possible audience.
Since Ellipse is producing his own keycaps for the F62+F77 GB, he has graciously offered to produce a custom color of caps if there is enough interest. The this keyset is conceptually similar to Originative’s Carbon Black MX-compatible caps. The font, profile, and mount will all be the same as the caps Ellipse is producing, and they will be dyesub instead of double shot. Notably, these are different from and higher quality than Unicomp’s caps in that Ellipse is doing the dyesubbing himself in order to keep the legends sharp and avoid fuzzy edges, and the stem and typing surface of these caps are all one piece, reducing wobble.
Quote from: Ellipse Yes if someone wants to track interest in black legends on lighter black PBT we’d need 20 sets to proceed but I’d be up for it as a lower priority add on set only. Quote link
Quote from: Ellipse I am not sure on the pricing. For now let’s say it will be a little more than the unprinted black, probably $10 more.
Yes all the legends and international key sets would be available in light black printed sets. Quote link
If you’re interested, sound off here. When get 20 sets worth of interest, we’ll take the next step of getting Ellipse to add this cap color to his GB.

I am not affiliated with Ellipse or the Model F GB. I just posted this thread to keep the main thread less cluttered.
