Moving really fast i see :) Congratz on the bubble free cap :) How did you achieve it ?:) Also dem sculpting tools! o.o
Photo with tools really looks like a set that "Dexter" would use xD NICE!
I guess I found a mold that is allowing me to create one without any bubbles

Nice progress on the pre-release to the current one. To get it cleaner looking did you just work overtime on it?

Oh I just meant whether you just kept working on it until it came out right.

I posted that before I saw your thread in artisan services.  xD  So now I know where to look for updates, and that should be good enough.   :thumb:

Now that you've been through the process of starting from knowing nothing, how difficult was it in hindsight? I would love to give it a try and it seems like you managed to get great results very quickly.

Hey there Nubb,

I would love to send you one of my keycaps! I just wasnt sure if you liked any of my keycaps but now that I know you are interested I will definitely send you one (next perfect one that I make). I am also nubbless because your awesome keycaps sell out so fast and I keep missing them :/ Anyway when I do send you one, it should get to you fast since you are also in oc just like myself ;)

Hey there Enigma,

I can say that making keycap is very difficult thing to do from my own experience. I failed so many times and burned my money left and right. Also without having the proper equipments, your chance of making perfect keycap is very very slim (under 5%). I just enjoy making my own custom keycaps and thats what keeps me going along with joy of seeing my own custom keycaps on someone else's keyboards ;)

ABS will start to deform at 221F since that's its glass transition temp.

I always read instruction before I do anything but in this case I was working with one GMK keycap which did not come with any instruction. Maybe I should've searched on the web before sticking my keycap in the oven... Oh well.
