I was going to suggest sleabo aswell, since they can do more colours etc on a single cap.

I think sleabo could do with a little cash kickstart. May help reduce prices and create full sets.

CnC and also Red Alert 2 were going to have them, but it turns out SP can't make them.
Keyword being that they aren't possible with SP. The stem most certainly fits there, so not at all impossible.

+1 for Sleabo/QWERKeys...
Would also like to see those in B-Series style. Maybe like a Tri-Color ESC, would be pretty awesome!

I agree, Modded stepped keycap to fit centered stem:

I did it first as a favor for MoogleStiltzken. But then nobody gives a fuck about that and being banned I couldn't warn the Group Key Buy leaders that SP could not possibly do it.

Of course they COULD have looked at my mods post.

You are right: nobody gives a fuck about that.
And I used another method than your ridiculous piece of wood.

I like wood. Very green method as I am inhaling the MEK fumes for maximum strength.

Care to share your method? I believe in an Open and Honest internet.

So more ideas or are the current ones good enough for a poll or something?

Well, the use of 3 Color QWERkeys opens up a ton of possibilities but these things tend to drag until somebody takes the ball and makes the call. Not me, I'm a big picture guy and as long as the font is Melbourne I'm happy.

Damn those retro Hipster fonts, drive me bonkers.
