Squishy Keycaps
Print Profile(1)

Description
I wanted to make squishy keycaps , and at the same time add a bit of style to the plain black of my TPU. And while I like the Pudding keycaps, I wanted something that had a soft impact on the board. So I made these, and they came out creamy. It is a TPU base, with a translucent PETG top that you can easily swap out without removing the base.
The TPU base can remain mounted, and all you have to do is slide out the tops if you want to change colors, a translucent or clear is recommended. These are mounted on a cheap amazon keyboard( Surmen GS98) with some Akko Yellow V3 pro switches and they now sound like a much more expensive keyboard. No need to take apart the keyboard and add gaskets if the keys themselves are the gaskets.
This uses REGULAR TPU not the stuff you get from maker supply. You could use their HF TPU (95a) but the profiles are not the same so some tuning may be required.
Click on the plate you want to print, slice that plate and print.Then swap spools (manually for regular TPU), and repeat.
When you are done you can either mount the bases and slide the caps on after, or slide them all on at once then mount them. Either works.
