Title: doubleshot pbt
Post by: taylordcraig on Wed, 06 August 2014, 13:10:30

I see you have doubleshot pbt arrows in black and white.
And chance of more colors and keys soon?

Thanks!

I believe I can answer that for you.

No.

The reasoning is that it's too hard to have considtent quality on larger doubleshot PBT sets, probably due to warping from temperature control issues with larger molds.

SP, please correct me if I'm wrong. It would be great to have full doubleshot PBT sets, but only if they can be decent quality.

I figured arrows were about as detailed as any alpha at least.

11. Can I order Double Shot PBT keycaps?
Molding double shot PBT keycaps presents challenges that are not typically found in molding double shot ABS keys. We are continuing to work on these issues. However, we do offer a limited number of PBT double shot keycaps that can be found on our Marketplace tab.

That was the point of me making this thread.
