Having recently decided to get involved with the whole mechanical keyboard thing. I decided to have a rummage around at my local Hackspace. I had already picked up a Dell with Alps switches a short while back, which is in the process of being turned into a tenkeyless.
EDIT: As pointed out below these are Devlin Key caps. Amended Topic to reflect that.
However I also found a few tins full of unused Cherry Black switches, and a mix of yellowed and new key caps.
Not what I would call your usual key caps. These appear to be a lot lower in profile, It looks like they are likely off a terminal of some sort. Most of the key caps are blank, I intend to have a go at laser etching those. Some of them are blank with a little LED window, then there is an array of double shot number keys.
It looks like someone perhaps had to order a replacement 5 key cap, as there is an extra 6 of these in new condition. It could be the other unused blank ones were ordered at the same time to fulfil an order.
Anyway, here are some pictures.
I am happy to trade some of the duplicate keys away so I can get stuck into my keycap collection.
I intend to keep an entire set of the numbers to use on a keyboard when I get one, however the other one is up for grabs if someone wants the complete set.

Gilgam, what did you want specifically? What would you be willing to trade?Gilgam wrote:do want
If you can
(also, if I am going to offer a set of the numbers and some blanks/number 5's, should I go set up a new topic in market place?)
