I can share the SVG file I sent to wasdkeyboards.com so that other people can have their own set printed. For $47 for a tenkeyless and $50 for a full set, they seem to be a pretty fair deal, considering that you have full control over what is printed on the keycaps.

I'm not a big fan of MX-Browns, but to me browns feel better with Costar stabilizers vs Cherry.  

 

So far, I am finding them to be better. Though, that maybe because I game more than I type and they are easier to press. So far, the most I have noticed between the Costar Stabilisers and the Cherry is that the space bar seems to pop back a lot faster than it did before. 

What do they know of England, who only England know?

I picked mine up today.

I can't even describe it and I really don't want to spoil it for you. It's one of those things you just have to experience to understand it!

 

No pictures? :(

Don't worry, pictures will comes.

It just happen to get dark very early in Denmark at the moment and I've just moved into my new apartment and I only got two small lamps to light up the apartment. Meaning the light isn't good enough for good pictures. I'll try take some pictures this weekend when I've finished a coupe of assignments and I got some time.  :)

Another thing, I can't believe I got #1991, one year apart from my year of birth. That would have been kind of sweet  :D

i just wish wasd did DSA keycaps then i could maybe get the keyscaps i need

DSA is a SP specific standard replicating older style keycaps so don't expect that to happen.

+1 For this. I'd like a low profile custom keyset from them, as low as the leopold ones.

SP should definitely have a custom printing service like wasd.

If mine ever arrives, then I can snap a few pictures, too. Got the Ducky mousepad incoming with the same package.

Officially joining the Mech KB Club!

Mine's a portal-themed Vortex Race 2 75% keyboard with Cherry MX Browns and white backlighting:

You'll see that I also have a set of metal WASD keycaps made from MKC, also from banggood.com.

:)

Hey you wouldn't want to perhaps send me the layout file you used for these keycaps would you?

Mine is already shipped, I just have this eerie feeling that it have gotten lost on the way...

 

It was shipped on Monday, and no further tracking updates since then. :(

Well, at least you know yours has been shipped, I have heard zip/nada/zero from the local distributor of Ducky in my neck of the woods. :(
