Hi!

This is my first time running an IC here (or in general).
I'm planning on creating artesian knobs for various keyboards, starting with this one called "Vegvísir", Vegvísir was a symbol given to outriders so they may find their way home, it's also known as the Way Finder.
Knobs are getting more and more popular thanks to keyboards like the Sat75 and GMMK PRO, many people, including me, love knobs and would like to have cooler ones to choose from :)

Features!


-Made to fit a GMMK PRO, should fit the Sat75 as well
-Casted using industry-standard Polyurethane similar to other artesian keycaps.
-Cold casted using various metals to produce the different shades
-Available shades: Gun Metal, Aluminium, Brass, Graphite

Each knob will be test fitted to my own board, polished and ready for use :)

Since it's my first time doing an IC, excuse me if I missed something!

Have a great week and I would love to hear your thoughts and wishes :)

You forgot to reserve the first reply to your post  :D

These look really nice! I would get one with that design if I had a keyboard with a knob on it.

I'd def cop one of these if they do end up getting made, they look really good!
They should also fit just fine on the kl-90, which has the same specs as the s75 knob wise (19.05mm knob, 20mm cutout)

Nice, I'd be up for one of these.
As I'm curious; Is the mounting intended for 6mm D-shafts? And if so, is the method friction fit or grub screw?

The mounting is friction fitted for a 6mm D-Shaft, yes :)
