I Have been working on getting a custom dye sub rig working for a while and wanted to share my results.

if anyone wants some custom dye sup caps and wants to support my projects pm me either here or on reddit, my reddit name is the matches my username here.
I will have 60 1u SA IceCap white(wan) , 40 1u white(WAN) DSA, and 40 1u Granite mod grey(GDE) DSA caps by friday 12/9.

Looks great. A writeup on how it's done would be well received.
-
Didn't even knew "custom dye sub rig"s where a thing.
I'd like some more information has well.
-
Right now my rig is kind of a mess. I't made out of a hot plate, arduino, door hinge, some custom silicon molds, a couple high amp relays and some weights. I'm going to try to mod a cheap coffee mug heat press soon, right now the set up still takes a while and I still melt a cap once in a while. If the coffee mug press mod doesnt work out I will make a guide for the one i'm currently using, probably at the end of the month when I have vacation.

That sounds awesome!

This would be huge for hhkb users ^-^

Still having problems with image transfer. My final ones looked better but I ran out of blank pbt caps. I should get more this week, If I fix the small problems I had I will post a guide during my vacation at the end of the month.

This looks amazing! When Matias releases blank PBT caps (if ever), this might be the chance for custom dye sub Alps caps!
-
Lookin' good! This seems like an interesting process. I'm excited to see what else you come up with :)
-
Those look super clean and have quite a bit of detail! I also would love to see your set-up if you had a chance! :D

Looking forward for it. Thanks.

I have a bunch of blanks coming in this week. If my sales goes well over at /r/mechmarket, I am getting a coffee mug heat press to try and mod it to work for keycaps. One of my goals for next year is to make a small easy to use heat press for key caps, figured it's about time I use my computer engineering degree.
My reddit name is the same as the one I use here. PM me if you guys are intrested in buying either some of the caps I have made or want a custom cap. Currently using any money I make to improve on current/ try out new projects.

if you guys are intrested in buying either some of the caps I have made or want a custom cap.
Depending on keycap profile and colour, I might be interested in some.

I'm really into Cherry profile. imsto (http://imsto.cn/index.php?route=product/product&path=59&product_id=93) dyesubs them so there definitely blanks to buy.

Might help to have a price quote, as well as more specifics on the resolution and colors that you can print on a blank keycap. I find this very interesting too!

I ordered some GMK style DCS caps but I won't get them for a while. I will order some cherry profile caps but i'm not sure I can compete with those prices. I was selling my caps for 8-10 bucks each, my prices will go down in the future but not until the process works better.
-
For now my prices are 10 bucks for a custom cap, 8 for one of the ones I already made. If you buy more than one I'll ship for free to most places. I can print any color, but the key cap color will affect how it looks.
