PLEASE USE THE INFORMATION BELOW:Here is the pricing that is currently available from KSM. Please read the hyphen (-) notes below for additional price considerations to the matrix shown. The wood types available and the costs of each key individually and as a set are listed below. The keys as quoted come with an engraved legend, see photos for style. Keys can come with no legend, and/or be engraved by WASD Keyboards as an option. The keys are for Cherry MX switches. The wood keycaps have a lacquer coating.
-There may be a small price adjustment to reduce the cost, but that can't happen until the entire order is ready to go and KSM will decide how much (if any).
-There are delivery charges that are not calculated. They will be divided evenly 'per key' for the entire order. The larger the order, the less per key.
-The keys will come to California and be distributed from California to the final destination. Shipping charges will apply.
-Keys are available without legends, and there may be a reduction in price. This will depend on the order placed. A reduced price is not guaranteed at this time.
-Keys ordered without legends, to be engraved by WASD Keyboards will have a separate charge for the custom engraving by WASD Keyboards.
-KSM will need about 3-4 weeks to manufacture. Shipping time from Taiwan. Distribution time. Perhaps 5-6 weeks to get product from group order date.
FIRST COLUMN - Price per individual key.
SECOND COLUMN - Price per key for an entire keyboard set
THIRD COLUMN - Price per individual key. The "Stylish key top" are little figurine type tops made of wood, you can see these on their website.

BEGINNING POST:Saw this company posted on deskthority, and contacted them about obtaining wood keycaps only, not an entire keyboard.

When I follow up with some pricing info, I'll post it here. I may buy 8 home row keycaps as samples to see how they are first.
This is their response:

Hello~
I'm glad you enjoy our keyboard.
We surely can just sell the keycaps you mentioned,
you can just offer your design , we will make them for you.
but we have MOQ for sets of keycaps,
and we also need to know what kind of wood you choose to use.
could you provide the photo of the set of keycaps for us first?
We can replicate them in wood, but we will charge you service fee and delivery fee.
thanks in advance~

Hello,
Your products are absolutely beautiful.
I want to know if it is possible to purchase any of the following:
-non legended keycaps
-keycaps of different styles
I have several keyboard projects, and I would love the opportunity to possibly purchase some keycaps if that is possible. This is a link to a website with my progress:
http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:8110I am mostly working on a Kinesis Contour keyboard. It uses about 12 different keycap profiles. Would it be possible for me to send you a set of keycaps and have you replicate them in wood?
Thank you,
