What's the status on these? :)

In production right now.  All of the caps have been printed, and I'll be finishing them on the weekend when I go in to work.  I'll try to have them all sorted by Monday, and get them shipped as soon as I can after that.

I've started shipping these out slowly, but due to work, and the need for my parent's bank account (the paypal account is attached to their bank account,) shipments will be slightly delayed.   I'll update regularly, and post a picture of all the ready packages soontm

Just got mine today - caps are very thick for a 3d printed cap.
Not sure about the waffle smell, maybe a futuristic waffle made by a robot

Life gets in the way of a lot of stuff, but today I'm shipping out a bunch more!  I'll try to get the others out ASAP, because this has dragged on way too long for everyone.

I got mine a few days ago, the 2 caps I bought both needed a little sanding to fix the upper side of the cap, otherwise brilliant work XX7

Just shipped the last of the US and International orders.  Canada next, along with one US order that I accidentally crushed :(

No Canadian ones yet sorry.  I have them packaged and ready to go, and they'll be shipped early next week.  Work and personal issues have been getting a little in the way.

Ah alright, that's good to know, though, so I don't check my mailbox frantically every day haha. Hope things on your end get better soon, too :)

Everything has smoothed out recently so I have all the international and CONUS orders shipped (Except for a couple corrections).  My switch sticker GB will likely go a lot faster than this.

I got mine; I really love them.  They are my first 3D-printed...things.

Can I paint them with some sort of clear lacquer to get a smoother finish?  Or is it possible to do something else to get a smoother finish?

You can try treating them with a aceton vapor bath (do a lot of research with that), alcohol, and sanding.  Clear coats and enamels work fairly well

I got my caps a few weeks ago and have been playing with them since. I actually like the rough textured feel to them. The DSA cap was a bit snug though, I had to file out the hole a bit so it would fit on the switch, other than that I really like them.

I'll make sure to reduce shrinkage issues in the future.  Some alcohol must have gotten on the stem (which causes it to slightly expand)
