Title: Reigning Hell's Caps: (Prototype) WASD Sets SALE complete!
Post by: Reigning Hell on Tue, 12 July 2016, 01:27:43
Reigning Hell's 1st Sale: WASD Gamer Sets

There are only 5 sets available in total, each unique and handmade. These took a lot of hours curing and sanding, so only 5 were able to made before the mold broke. Because I did  not use a vacuum chamber or pressure pot, there are some some small visible bubbles only on the underside of the cap, throughout the sets.

Inconsistent curing lead to 3 different texture types. They work just fine as any other, they just have a bit more gript to them. The 3 different types of textures to the gamer sets - Gummy, Semi-Gummy, and Solid. I will post a video of them tomorrow.

You can enter for 2 max! So when you post in this thread after 4:20 tomorrow, just post the 2 names.

I'm going to randomize all of the entries and pick one for each, so there's no first come first serve - just come thru within the 12 hours.

Not sure what you mean by "grainy consistency", but if you're talking about the textures, all but the Solid State Gray is soft to the touch. Gray is the only solid.If you're referring to the colors on the top of the cap, that's the actual colors  ;D I used oil paint to color the resin, and when some doesn't mix all the way in, it coagulates. The Gram Stain Purple is from those red and blue oil paint, and that Plumbus pink color came form the red and yellow.
Solid State and Synthesis have the least amount of flecks due to the paint being mixed more thoroughly.

are these resin?

Ye bby. Here's my thread with all my work on the project up to this point https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=82857.0;topicseen

Hey guys. A few days ago, one of the winners messaged me telling me that some of the keys did not work properly due to bottoming out issues. This is completely due to my mold of the caps. Although they worked fine on my cherry MX switches, they seem to be having problems with others. I have been thinking about what to do since then, because it actually made me sick to my stomach that I messed this bad.
Since then, 2 others have told me about similar issues.

I issued full refunds to all winners today. I do not feel comfortable charging money for these. I apologize to all winners, and I promise to make it up later on. :)

Thank you, everyone who has their name in this thread, for supporting me and my work. Thank you to those winners who said to make up for it next time, that truly showed me how good this community can be.

Hopefully I can make more caps before the semester starts. I'll still be on that grind mode

Although I completely forgot about this, credit to you for doing this. Only very few would do such a thing.

I'll be in for the next sale/raffle.

Thanks everyone! I appreciate the luv

Side note, it seems a common factor with the caps not working is Zelios switches. Maybe they only work as intended on Cherry switches?? Try it out

Cool seeing my caps on another board :')
