FROM THE IBM TERMINAL TO THE DESKTOP Based on the profile from the iconic IBM beamspring terminals of the 1970s this custom set is fully sculpted from dye-sublimated PBT in Hi-Profile What's Hi-Profile you ask? Many computer terminals of old were constructed with a slanted switch layout from front to back Because of that slant the keycaps sat at an angle atop the switches too This set is a reimagination of that unique slanted build but optimized for modern keyboards Thanks to some significant design work from Matt3o 3D modeling and a whole lot of elbow grease we're proud to bring these innovative caps back for a second run Here we’re offering kits specifically for our CTRL ALT SHIFT Preonic and Planck keyboards—or other similar boards if they’re compatible
Based on the profile from the iconic IBM beamspring terminals of the 1970s, this custom set is fully sculpted from dye-sublimated PBT in Hi-Profile. What's Hi-Profile, you ask? Many computer terminals of old were constructed with a slanted switch layout from front to back. Because of that slant, the keycaps sat at an angle atop the switches, too.
This set is a reimagination of that unique slanted build, but optimized for modern keyboards. Thanks to some significant design work from Matt3o, 3D modeling, and a whole lot of elbow grease, we're proud to bring these innovative caps back for a second run. Here, we’re offering kits specifically for our CTRL, ALT, SHIFT, Preonic, and Planck keyboards—or other, similar boards, if they’re compatible. (Drop CTRL Keyboard pictured above with TKL keycap set)
This 70-key kit will cover the Drop ALT and 65% keyboards with the same layout. Keycap kit compatible with Cherry MX switches and clones (including but not limited to Gateron, Kaihua, and Halo switches).
Made from PBT plastic—long considered the superior keycap material—this MX-compatible set is both long lasting and resistant to the shine that occurs after long hours of typing. The legends are dye-sublimated so they won’t fade over the long haul. As for the layout, the set comes with an angled bottom row for a comfy feel. The colorway is a combination of neutral grays and colorful accents for a subtle look on your favorite board.
Note: This listing is for Keycap set only (Drop ALT Mechanical Keyboard pictured is for illustration only)
