:~$ynth is

A new opportunity for artisans and resin casting enthusiasts.  After months of collaboration between Techkeys.us and Binge from HungerWorkStudio, crucially assisted by Joey Quinn, and finally engineered by NudeCNC I would like to first showcase by photo the alpha and beta of :~$ynth.






The concept is to put a high quality mold part, at an affordable cost, in the hands of seasoned enthusiasts as well as folks who are brand new to casting and may want to try their hand gravity casting.  The technical features of this part include,

  • All machined Aluminum construction
  • Designed in part to work alongside flexible silicone molds
  • Maker's mark place-holder
  • large spure/gate/runner system
  • Tight fitting Cherry MX stem insert for a precision fit.
  • Teflon coating to ease in mold release

In addition to being one of the driving collaborators of this project, I have agreed to test and determine the necessary workflow in order to use such a part.  This means that I will be offering video tutorials and my very first HWS keycap this year will be a demonstration of this part's amazing application for artisan keycaps.

Get ready to step it up guys :)

This is a great idea and will save untold numbers of silicone molds. Can't wait to see more and get my hands on one of these!

Binge, I see that there are mold keys built into the design. Do they help orient the direction that the silicone portion faces to a particular direction, or would you be able to rotate the aluminum portion to all 4 directions?

What I wish for is that nobody tries to make profit off of these caps they make using the Synth but to trade them, that would be really neat to trade with others and see what designs they can come up with.
