Title: Cherry Mx KeyCap Stem Size
Post by: Gassed on Sat, 19 January 2019, 13:40:09

Hello,
I was wondering what  the measurements for the stem of a Cherry Mx Keycap. I have been 3d printing some and I cant get the size right. Right now I have a 4mm by 4mm cross. Sometimes it is too tight and sometimes it is too loose.
Thanks for the Help

The switches are made with a tolerance and can be slightly larger or smaller than 4mm x 4mm. It's tough to get it perfect
