Great caps, I got exactly that set for my dox.
But one detail is annoyingly off, and that is: the home row keys (f and j on qwerty keyboards) usually have bumps so you can easily find them when touch typing, not so with this set. So for future drops, please do include 2-3 keycaps with bumps!

NotHappeningI second this. I am really missing not having any tactile feedback on the F and J keys. I contacted Signature Plastics to see if they would sell PBT DCS keys with homing bars/dots directly from their inventory, and they said they no longer sell individual keys. Although other vendors do sell individual keycaps, from what I've found, they're either DSA, or if they are DCS, then they're ABS and not PBT: I can't seem to find any exact matches for this keycap set, and I'd really love to be able to.
Edit: Picked up the Custom Ctrl Set from http://pimpmykeyboard.solutionsinplastic.com/marketplace.php which has F and J-marked PBT DCS keys with homing bars. It will definitely do until any interesting blank PBT DCS keycaps appear in the market.

paulfioravantiA solution for the homing bar/dots, Take a paper clip, (one with a thin wire gauge) and cut two small pieces. Then using tweezers position it on the key cap and brush a thin coat of nail polish over the piece of paper clip, once dry it will hold the piece of paper clip on the key cap allowing for a tactile bump.
