giammax88So refer to top, there's three parts to the key caps. 1) and 2) are purchased from taobao/aliexpress and 3) was a group buy (gmk). If you look at the photos, there are actually more keys that comes with 2), but I eventually decided to drop them because it looked too messy. Also the base set 1) that I used did not have a perfect base colour match with 2) which means you can also go for something more white/plain for the base if that's what you like. I choose this base set despite the colour differences because I wanted to have a green theme and the differences were neglect-able when back-lit is on.
Also, if you are an organic chemist you would know... there are no symbol for Q and J, hence it will never be a perfect periodic table set. Unless you make stuff up.

GiammaThe base is EnjoyPBT Russian double green. Its definitely decent quality, only thing I would mention about is the edge of characters could've been more crisp. For the periodic table, try this link... gd luck figuring out the Chinese tho...

GiammaHahahaha, Nice~ Try and see if you can get those breaking bad caps first. Those should be the hardest to get, rest of it is not going away any time soon.

GiammaCareful with the periodic table set as the base color of the keys are probably more like what I showed in this post (white-ish) compared to the vendor's photo that's more of a beige. Also... I had trouble understanding the purpose of ? key and the Yao key......

GiammaIn terms of periodic table keycaps, I've seen photos of other sets, but this is best I can find for sale - dye sub PBT. If you look at the photo of the vendor, I am almost certain the first batch or at least the trial batch was actually done in beige, hence the photos. Its a little misleading now that the base is made in a different color... so its really up to you if its something you can accept. On the bright side, if you do a green led like I did, you will barely notice it when the led is on.

Giammaaaah =(...I`ll try to search something on google, but it`s hard to find PBT dyesub with that team. Also mkm did something like that, but abs doubleshot...uff. But I can accept, it looks like really beatiful :D And I need to contact Varmilo for take a keyboard with green led.

GiammaJust get the kit and build it yourself, probably easier. also this allow you to solder the led before the switch which imo gives a more even glow.
