I've been typing on my Filco tenkeyless for over one year now, and I'd like to share with you the modifications I made to the keyboard so far. It's nothing exotic, but I like the result!
The keyboard came with English UK keycaps, so I've never actually used the original alpha keys. The only italian keycaps I could find back then were lasered pbts. Too bad they were grey!
Then I added some Tipro relegendables to use the F-keys ase media keys on OS-X. Fishy!
At last a set of black italian cherry doubleshots surfaced... in the U.S.! I got them with the help of Biniaris.
Then came Moogle Kit 2!
And finally, the current setup. Hashbaz's RGBY and original cherry relegendables (also from Biniaris).
Now I'm looking forward to the replacement yellow key (with a stronger shade of yellow) and Moogle kit 3!
One year with my Filco

Looks nice, really like the F row keys, and I think I prefer the colour of the grey rather than the black, but fair enough, glad to see a happy user

Only now noticed you'd changed them from the second last pic to the last; why'd you drop the nice esc and frost icons? (meaning that esc icon could be used elsewhere perhaps)ripster wrote:And how did you print the labels?
*edit: frost > square

Thanks guys! Glad you like it.
The labels in the first pics are printed on glossy paper. It looks nice on tipro relegendables. However it doesn't make much difference on Cherry relegendables, because of the matte finishing. So the latest labels are just printed on regular paper.
At first I couldn't find any useful media functions for F5, F6 and F14. So I just printed funny labels! Now I remapped F5 to "reload" and F14 as "show desktop". F6 is still fish!ripster wrote: Gotta ask - what did the wine bottle key do?

Yes and yes! Moogle kit 2, to be precise.Gilgam wrote:Really nice, and i love the relegendables too
You printed them white on black ?
The capslock is from a moogle kit ?
Btw, sorry for the delay with your Fentek keycaps, but they're still in the US!
EDIT: I didn't read the question carefully! Actually i printed it black on white! I didn't even know you could print with white ink!
