MoErgo is cooking up some anodized aluminium Choc-compatible keycaps "for fun".
It has been a while, since we had been so busy, but here are some photos of the anodized aluminium keycaps we made. Since we are now partnering with @mburger, we have the possibility of offering the well-loved MBK and MBK Convex in aluminium too – Stephen.
On the left is MCC-profile and on the right is the MBK.
The MoErgo team is thinking about doing a limited trial run and they need your help to figure out what color and profile they should make.
We will start small: a limited quantity trial run with a single color and perhaps multiple key profiles. Perhaps 120 sets (total) of 2 each.
Help to figure out what the trial run should be by filling in this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSegz7IvCoUDK3UsXMcPZNUP2dLou1ctaNv1dhIayTxWiSmBLw/viewform
