I'm sure there's been some topic on this already but I'll ask it again: who the hell pays $10 for a 3d printed potato cap?

I always wonder the same thing about most 3D printed caps.

lol I think the potato keycap is meant to be funny.  Kind of like the sadster keycap.

Though this is very nice for a 3D printed keycap:  https://www.massdrop.com/buy/pumpkin-keycap?mode=guest_open

It's a nice keycap to look at, but it fits so loose on the stem. I lost it for that reason :(

Won't be buying it again. Really more for the lolz. Oh well.

I got 24 pumpkin keycaps from Massdrop and they are lookin good.

But I can't use them on my k-board, they don't fit on the stem, they are very loose.

Yes, from "Esc to Pause" + the last 4 keys to the right (have some 108/109 k-boards, 2 109 keys ISO/Nordic layout Ducky Shine 2, 2 108 keys ANSI/US layout Ducky Shine 3 + some 109 keys ISO/Nordic layout Shine 3  and 1 108 keys ANSI/US layout Shine 4 69 ).
