I really like the font and texture in IBM Model M keyboards, but needed a much smaller keyboard for my home office. I had saved a set of caps from a trashed Model M and decided to print some adapters to use them on my Keychron K6.

All small caps use one model. Print without brim if you can, makes for zero clean up. If they don't ‘snap’ on, check the edges just under the top of the caps.

Tab, Alt, File and Control need their own stem, to account for the ribs in those caps.

Larger keys (with integral stems)  need to be hollowed out with a rotary tool and the adapters glued on. Spacebar is best suited to just cut and glue to fit.
