WTB Relegendable KeyCaps for Tipro

Hi,

I see there was a group buy for these some time ago.

Basically I need to fill a Tipro 128 key programmable keyboard, all of its keys have been donated to others to create lighting desk keyboards. I don't mind if they are KMX or MID style (although a consistent style over the 128 would be prefered)

Do any of you have spare or can point me to somewhere that sells something compatible?

Many thanks.

I can offer 150 new original Tipro light grey relegendable keycaps with transparent lids
shipped to the UK (as a registered letter, i.e. tracked and insured) in a sturdy cardboard box for 20€.

PMs remain in the Outbox until they are fetched by the recipient, and then move to the Sent box.

After sorting some of my stuff, yes :lol:
But these are just a few of them.

Edit:
I have just a few KMX style relegendable keycaps, but quite a lot of MID style ones.

You made me actually count them :lol:
And it’s more than I thought: 30 with their transparent lids, 5 missing a lid.
They are all black, by the way.

counting is good for the soul :-)
30 is a bit too little for a 62 keyboard.

Is there a chance that you will be planning a group buy for these keys in the near future?
Or that you know where I can find this keys?

I am looking for around a 120 of this keys.

Indeed. MID is lame, but MID is available!

Will have to wait until I find the KMX.
Otherwise, I sit with too many caps I do not have much use for.
My project is building a atreus with an extension for cad, the caps must display a lot of symbols.

I now have bought one of these
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/123745744401
to be used as a foot switch as per my thread
viewtopic.php?f=56&t=22594&p=450621#p450621

which means the keycaps will be available.
All of them have a (differently coloured and pad-printed) base with a transparent lid.
So out of all that and taking into account those I have counted before, you could have 45 black bases with a lid
and use all the others as is (5 of them would then be without a lid, but who needs e.g. green? :D )
