So when it's used on black keys, a paint filler is poured into it, as is done with the keyboards like the Das Model S

I worked as an intern this summer in a company that made laser etching machines.
An engineer there explained too me that laser etching didn't always make a "chasm", evaporate the metals or plastics. But could as well, depending on the plastic used (and the settings of the laser etching machine), bubble when heated by the laser and create a clean relief that stands out (like on my 6Gv2).
The color of that relief depended also on the material and settings, but could easily be made so that it would be in strong contrast with the surface. Like very white relief on black plastic.

He used higher intensity lasers to create chasms in metals, I guess it is the same principle for plastics.

So in conclusion the letter doens't always come out black. smile.gif

I took apart an old membrane keyboard and it looked just like that. I'm going with rubber dome or membrane.

I'm looking to buy a mechanical keyboard from a shop that ships to europe.
If possible I'd like cherry brown (or red).
I was looking for something under 100 euros, but I couldnìt find anything. Is there really nothing under 100 euros?
The only choices I found are filcos and the g 710+, but both are 150 euros.
If anyone could point me to a shop that sells a good mechanical kb (brown or red) for under 100 euros would be really appreciated, else which would be better for that price, the filco or the g710+?
