Title: [IC] 3d Printed Keycaps? Nonstandard sizes included.
Post by: luis911 on Sat, 10 January 2015, 20:39:54

Would anyone be interested in 3d printed keycaps?

All I have is DSA profile for now, but I can start modeling all sorts of profiles. Keycaps can also be layered in different colors.
I was considering $7.00 for a 1x1 keycap and $15 for a spacebar. I've always wanted to have an online store so I'm looking into using some domains that I own and opening up a storefront. Eventually I want to use my 3d modeling skills to design all sorts of cool keycaps and spacebars. Let me know what you guys think.

There are actualy a few custom keycaps that I think would be perfect to try with a 3D printer. Should I pm you in regards to this?

Please, im always interested in feedback and ideas. There are limitations to 3d printing, but I try to do my best to engineer designs that compliment the process.
