Ceramic Keycaps Are Insane 🤤

Cerakey just made a full ceramic keycap set, so it’s time to build the thockiest of thocky keyboards.

I’m excited for the different materials people are trying to make for boards! It’s things like this that will bring the custom world to anew era! I don’t think I will pick these up because I like higher pitched poppy sounds, but I do enjoy the effort here!

The space bar sounds freaking amazing. It's like having an alien telling you "NICE" every time you finish a word.

Spacebar sounds more like a "tick" instead of thocc. If they hollow it out even more maybe you'll hear a thocc but it won't be fuller because of the material used.

As a programmer, I feel threatned with the lack of labels on those keys

[Jedithtv]

I actually really like how glassy the spacebar sounds

[alexonstott]

That scene with the transparent switches was rad. I hope other creators pick that idea up for comparisons. Very cool

[zenviel]

The combination of the resin case and the ceramic keycaps genuinely looks gorgeous.. BUT WHERE DID YOU BUY THE GENGAR?! I WANT IT. :))

Immediately backed this project, the glow you get from rgb is insanely unique

I saw this when they first started the kickstarter. Awesome to see that they are branching out and performing. I dee them becoming very big, very soon.

The test with the gateron inks sounded super clean and satisfying, I think that individual tap might be my favorite of the bunch.

tight budget lately so i missed the early buy in price. Glad to see these were so well taken by the community! I shall hop in when a new design appeals to me!

One of the the most premium-sounding keyboard builds I've seen. The caps may be pricey but they seem to be an effective solution to give a cheaper board a more premium sound.

The only drawback was that the whole time I wish you had gone with legends on the caps since how good and permanent those are is what ceramic caps will live and die on. If they wash off fast ABS style they will be able to eke out a niche but they won't go mainstream.

I supported this kickstarter and I just got the keycaps the other day. I am in love with them. I don't think I would buy another set of GMK keycaps again unless there is a really nice colour way I haven't seen or have something similar too. The sound is amazing, using it on a mode65 with copper plate and brass bottom. Such a nice marble deep thock sound. Feels like I am typing on an ancient relic found in some far away land (cheesy I know but literally sounds out of this world to me sometimes)

Can't wait for more colour options for fonts, other than that these are perfect the way they are!!

Very smooth editing with the transparent key caps showing with switch was underneath.

i would totally play a 10 hour key tapping video to fall asleep to. this was really nice to my ears

Ceramics are generally made by taking mixtures of clay, earthen elements, powders, and water and shaping them into desired forms. Once the ceramic has been shaped, it is fired in a high temperature oven known as a kiln. Often, ceramics are covered in decorative, waterproof, paint-like substances known as glazes, thus creating keycaps that are making me moist.

[mrgallbladder]

I think really cool key caps would be such that the characters only appear when the keyboard is backlit or on. When it's off, they just look blank.

[filovirus]

really like the ceramic keycaps shown here and desirability is REALLY high but... huge but: I must have shine through lettering. if they can pull that off, I'll pay whatever they ask for.

[huntzzio]

that spacebar sound is so unique, it’s like tapping on glass with a metal twig

Funny thing is, I found out about CeraKeys from a Facebook ad months ago and bought their R4 1u artisan in black and crazed just to see what's up. I was half expecting it to be a scam tbh. But when I got them they were surprisingly solid. I'm glad they've blown up now and I'm looking forward to getting a full set of crazed caps! I also dig the price point considering stuff like the Aluvia set was almost $400
