Keyboard Keycaps / How to have a custom keycap set built?
« Last post by mathisart on Tue, 14 May 2024, 20:15:41 »
How can one have a custom keycap set built?
By custom keycaps I mean keycaps with a custom geometry that doesn't exactly match the profile/shape/size of any existing keycap set.
I'm currently 3D printing such keycaps but I wonder how they could be built in (non-3D-printed) ABS or PBT.

The shape is not too exotic; they look kinda like this: https://adafruit.com/product/5111 but with some (nontrivial) differences.

Bonus question: how to add custom art/fonts/icons to the keycaps.

Rogue Genesia. I love Survivor-type games, and got this last night and was instantly addicted. Better than most I have played, and it is still pretty early access.

Also Death Must Die with the new update. DMD is shaping up to be a really solid title. Basically Hades meets Vampire Survivors, good powers, voice acting, some fun dialogue. I'd recommend both, especially for the price.

Interviewed today for a position that is 10PM to 7AM
The guy was trying to sell me on the freedom of those hours, how the job comes with a paid hour lunch and full access to the cafe, but I'm sitting there like 'Everything will be closed at 2AM for lunch, and the cafe closes at 5'

In the Winter, at best, I'll be getting just about an hour of sunlight a day if I sit next to the window of the bus on my ride home. The last guy who had the position just died from a heart attack, which is why they were looking to fill.

It's just red flags everywhere, and here I am just wanting to make enough to afford both food and rent. Life is unyielding and cruel.

Bello! I am a minion and I was commanded to tell you how I feel about this set which is to say yes I would like more minion stuff.
This would look great next to the Minion router.

Would definitely go for a goofy ah set like this. Great job on the design.

QWERTY should be discontinued.
Staggered should be discontinued.
All keyboards should be ortholinear. Or hexagonal. Or something.
Which layout would you champion?

Not OP, but I've been rocking the 6 column Corne for the last few months. I really can't see myself needing anything more / less outside of curiosity and boredom. Staggered columnar with or without a numrow is probably the best bet for most folks looking to try out non-traditional layouts.

Why are the upper left corners of the color chips blurred? Why aren't we being told what the exact colors are, so that we can obtain color swatches for viewing outside of an uncalibrated, inaccurate monitor?

Probably so it's hard to make knock-offs.
