[FS] Cycap, Hard Knock Waz, and Derp Cap v2
« on: Fri, 20 December 2013, 21:09:20 »
I've been experimenting with resin casting and metal casting caps for a while now.  Recently, I've been trying to better document the results of different experiments to help other people interested in following into casting.

While my caps are still not perfect, in large part because I can't find an affordable pressure pot, they are now at a point where I'm happy with how my casts are turning out.  I'm still experimenting with different materials, methods, and so on, but I decided it's time to sell some off to continue funding my experiments and, hopefully, a pressure pot at some point. 

Each color is only done once.  There are different permutations that can be done, but each color will only be done once outside of rare instances.

Cycaps - Colors, from left to right, top row to bottom row: Emerald Green, Grey, Orangsicle, Baby Blue, Spring Green, Light Grey, Salmon, Lavender



More

Hard Knock Waz - Named because, after making him, I realized he reminded me a little of Mike Wazowski who'd seen some stuff. 

Colors - Overcast Patriot (blue and red swirl, greyish color), Orangsicle, Traffic Orange, Banana Yellow, Turquiose



Derp Cap v2 Color: Traffic Orange - Sold

More


Prices

- Cycap - $15 shipped within the US. Orange donate to Geekhack for payment.

- Hard Knock Waz - $15 shipped within the US. - Oranges donate to Geekhack for payment.

- Derp Cap v2 - $7 shipped - Donation to Geekhack for payment. - Sold

Comment in the thread which one(s) you want.  First come, first serve. No PMs.

For the Geekhack donation caps, comment in the thread that you're taking it and after you make the donation, get a mod to confirm it.  Once they confirm it will ship.

Add $5 for international shipping if paid as gift. More if paid as goods since Paypal requires tracking for seller protection.  If you're buying one of the Geekhack donation caps internationally, I would ask that that small part of the additional cost come to me.

Shipping may be slower this time around since my new job is keeping me incredibly busy already.

Additional colors can be made to order, but will cost $1-2 more due to the fact that my darker dyes are much more fickle than the alcohol inks.  I'm also working on the possibility of pearlescents, but those will cost more since the supplies costs more and they monopolize the mold for a substantially longer period of time.

Sure can.  Just donate $7 to geekhack and get one of the mods to confirm it for the Derp Cap v2 and I'll PM you the info for the key cap puller.

And finally found an affordable pressure pot, so there should be some translucent and other interesting caps in the future.

The Salmon one is also gone, going with the case/wrest/key cap puller combo.

Still no response on the spring green, so it's back up for grabs unless I hear back shortly.

Spring green sold and I'm adding two new ones:

Glow in the dark HKW:



- $15 shipped within the US

Translucent purple Derp Cap v2:



- $10 shipped within the US

Recommended that the latter be used with water clear 2x3x4mm white LEDs since it's rather dark.

Both gone.

Shoot me off a PM with your Paypal address and it's yours.

Which orange is the donation one for hardknock waz? I'm just curious as I kind of want the traffic orange.

Both oranges are donation to Geekhack caps.  Just donate $15 to GH specifying it's you and it's for this and get one of the mods to confirm it.  Once they do, I'll get it prepped to ship.  I'll put the traffic orange on reserve for you.

And sorry to everyone about the slower than usual shipping.  Between the holidays and the new job, I haven't been able to get to the post office until the weekends.  I've been trying to ship during my lunch break, but I've had quite a few road lunches recently.  Hopefully things settle down some soon and I can get back to next day or, at the very latest, two day later shipping.

Oh cool, I'd definitely be interested when they're available again, I'll keep an eye on this thread.
The banana yellow does really interest me aswell, I'll take that one aswell if it is still here.

I'm actually more awake now then I was when I last posted.
Should've seen the salmon colour had been sold already.

Yeah, that was my fault. I just really liked them, and got a bit excited and posted in the thread without paying attention to dates. Sorry. :(

The current mold was, but I'm debating making a new one.

Well if you decide to, I get dibs! :D I'll buy at least two.
