[IC] Switch Stickers
« on: Mon, 24 August 2015, 18:55:08 »
I've been looking into getting some switch stickers in odd colours made.

As of now I'm looking at a bunch of metallics (Green, Blue, Orange, Purple, Gold, Silver) and whatever else you guys suggest!

Prices will definitely be below $10 a sheet.  I'll try to get them as cheap as it goes.

This won't happen for a while as I will need to purchase my own vinyl plotter (the neighbor is unreliable and slow)

IC Form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1flnDEDeAV3GqIcvdVbxCTjEThAoSqJATHN-P2_Lcn2A/viewform?usp=send_form


Metallic vinyl would basically look like coloured chrome.


Make sure to tell me any ideas, metallic or not

rough idea on price? I think this would be a major motivator.

edit: just saw the title of the google doc - "No prices are set currently, but they should be below $10".

If it were around $6-8 I think this would be pretty competitive.

$10 is definitely the high estimate.

But still reasonable as I paid $11/sheet of 121 for my carbon fiber sheet and not far off from what other charge for metallics.

I know it doesn't fit into the metallics theme, but maybe pink? I just really really want pink.

So it turns out my neighbor is super slow and unreliable for anything bigger than one run, so I'm looking at purchasing my own vinyl plotter.   This GB will have to be put on the backburner for a little, but it is very likely I will pick this up again in a couple months time.

i have a vinyl plotter and have been wanting to cut switch stickers for people but i don't have a switch sticker vector and have been too lazy to make one. need svg, ai, eps, pdf, etc. thinking theres probably enough info to make my own from the cherry mx datasheet, so i might just do that and test em.

3 months late but where did you get the carbon fibre stickers from? They would fit perfectly with Leandren's GB.

Definitely interested if this starts up again though.

If this is happening, lucaslink will likely be taking over, since he has reliable access to a plotter.

As odd as this description sounds, I could be in ... if it happens next year.

Money is tight, and I'm not expecting it to free up too soon so I need to make sure I get through the holiday season. After that I'll be able to reconsider more frivolous expenditures.
