Buckling spring with a cherry on top" converters by matt3o
Tinkerer extraordinaire, matt3o brings us the timeless typing experience of buckling springs with the overwhelming choice of Cherry MX compatible keycaps...who says you can't have the best of both worlds?

Together in harmony

Mrinterface's Alps<>MX adapters
Alps switches are fantastic, but it's not always easy to get hold of good quality keycaps for them. Enter Mrinterface, and his Cherry to Alps adapter project. There seems to be a trend forming here...

NovaTouch TKL by Cooler Master/CM Storm
OK, trend confirmed; almost everyone wants to use Cherry MX compatible keycaps, and Cooler Master is no exception. The NovaTouch TKL is an important milestone for those who like the feel of Topre's switches, but were struggling with the lack of keycap customisation options.

A NovaTouch TKL without its stock caps will be a familiar sight for most owners

SP's Pimp My Keyboard for enabling some interesting little GBs
Signature Plastics continued to impress, especially with Pimp My Keyboard, which allowed people to easily start new productions, with all the logistics taken out of their hands.

No love for the buckling spring adapters?

A pitty, as everyone believed it to be impossible.

Holy crap! I didn't even know about that. I desperately want spherical double shots for my buckling spring keyboards.

I voted for it.

I always believed it is possible, because I tried it myself.
