I love the portability of the normal size Magic Keyboard, but I also love the silver/black color.Apple broke my hope, that they would ever sell a silver/black normal size, when they introduced the silver/black color for the Magic Keyboard, but only for the one with the numpad.Companies like colorware offer painting your devices but they also paint the aluminium.So in my desperation I thought of turning my boring silver Magic Keyboard (3 without Touch ID) into a stunning one of a kind silver/black one. I have a 3D printer and a CNC.Is it possible to make my own keycaps? How could I get CAD data for the keycaps and testfit them, preferably without tearing my Magic Keyboard apart? I know it is an odd question but maybe somebody knows.
We don’t normally dive into this level of mod’ing. Sadly, it’s not that simple. 3D printing of the key caps requires molding of the softened Delrin sheet with a press as they are very thin. Frankly, why don’t you just order them from a parts house like TheBookYard - UK they should be able to help you.
