RE: Creating overlays / custom key kaps for cherry switches
It looks like the number of different key plastics varies between keyboards. Some seem to have up to five different key mouldings, others just one. That's not counting the varying sizes of key.

The double shot pricing at the site is $0.50 - $1.00 per key with 50 sets. Whereas for the acrylic printed legends it is $50 + $1/key with ten sets. $25n - $50n instead of $50 + $10n.

Existing (i.e. cheaper) keys could also be used -- either bought singly or extracted from keyboards. E.g. https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/ind...ail&p=2247 is the beginnings of a calculator. A few custom keys and it could be nice. Twenty three keys and a display is on the low end.
