NotHappening

Pretty happy with my dox, ordered a set with keycaps and alu plates.
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'd suggest using a low-heat hot glue gun and dropping a couple dots on the appropriate keys.
Or, you can buy a couple of the appropriate keycaps directly from SP: http://www.keycapsdirect.com/key-capsinventory.php
Personally, I did not buy keycaps with my ErgoDoxes from Massdrop. I got them separately, so I could get exactly what I wanted. Isn't that the point of getting a DIY keyboard?

nomadedI can only find a cream key with a homing bump on that site for DSA keys: DSA - 1X W/ HOMING BUMP - CREAM (WCX)
I'm after black, am I looking in the wrong place?
Also which plastic should I choose to match the keys in the drop, ABS or PBT?

ollySays "Keycaps (Blank PBT DSA)" in my order summary, so PBT.
I just went with the cream ones, and added a few other cream colored keycaps while I was at it, in order to help me 'navigate' the keyboard easier. And I'm hoping the LEDs will be easier to see through the bright keycaps, but I haven't tested it yet. Still waiting for the missing switches...
Here's a picture:

Edit: They have leftover deep dish keycaps in black. I don't know exactly how they look like, but those are what they normally include with their ErgoDox set for the F and J keys.
