What do you do with the original keycaps that came with the keyboard you put these keycaps on? Do those get recycled too?

Back in 1976 at Harrison Middle School (suburban Pittsburgh) the wood/metalshop classroom had a hydraulic press that would recycle strips from plastic bottles into golf tees. No heating unit was involved. It was just the enormous pressure (from a lever operated by the 12 yo student) was enough to melt the plastic into the mould.
If you hung on the lever too hard, the resulting tee would have a tight spiral pattern.
It would be an interesting study for a flow dynamics engineer.

New janky caps.
They look like chocolate and I want to eat them.
