Keycap Kevin: my first attempt at making an artisan keycap
9.11.2022
Mechanical keyboards are my great passion. In the series «Keycap Kevin», I’m experimenting with various techniques to beautify keyboards. Today’s experiment: manaufacturing a key cap from resin.
Artisan keycaps (customised keycaps) made of synthetic resin are tiny works of art. They can contain anything from pretty bubbles to detailed universes.
As someone blessed with the artistic talent of a lindworm, I can only dream of creating something like that. But I’m giving it a try nonetheless. Want to see how it goes and what I end up with? Check out the video above to find out. For English subtitles, click the gear icon, «Subtitles/CC» and «Auto-translate».
This is episode 3 of the five-part series «Keycap Kevin». I’ll keep adding new episodes to this page.
