Id pick up one or two if they matched my color scheme

Nice to see more cap makers around

I agree....the more artisan keycaps the better! Love the colors too. Will be sending you an email with my request.

Though they're experimentation resins, they look really good!
I'm happy that I managed to reserve one. If you ever release a completed one I'll definitely get one too.

For the first time in my life, I have successfully shipped a package (nay, several packages) through the tangible, real-world mail system.

Your packages are on the way, everyone!

except for international, sorry I need a few more days :(

Not quite sure, definitely by December (probably)? I've been pretty slow with making; freelance has been eating up all of my free time. Next batch will probably be pretty small, I'm running out of resin too so I need to stock up again.

That is a shockingly accurate comparison, I think I'll join you in calling him Wonka.

Or maybe Willy Capka? Cappa? I'll figure something out.

I absolutely love the blanks. Great work. I've always loved the style of FN keys made by CC (I think) for Topre, and these are very similar and very nice. I've always wanted something like that.

It's really just whatever I feel like doing at the time, I don't have any set colorways or goals just yet. I've been kind of on a winter theme, so I guess it's a possibility.

I'm getting advice from carinaguts about the necessary parts for a vacuum / pressure setup, and have begun ordering some of the components! Probably going to need to run one more sale to fund all of this though, but it's not so bad :)

Hey guys, sorry for lack of updates! Haven't been able to produce much of anything lately; work has been absolutely terrifying. On the bright side, I've been given the opportunity to pursue a dream job. ***esports bois***

I'll be launching a small sale of all the winter-themed caps I have so far within the next couple of days, so keep an eye out!

Shot you an email Katz! I'll also take some extra stock off your hands if this ends and not everything sells ;). Would probably resell at  $10 + shipping so others can enjoy the love :).
