Hello everybody, my name is Brian/nitwimp and I’ve been making metal keycaps at my shop for a few months. I finally have a solid process established for making Cherry r1 1u caps out of brass and aluminum
Here is a link to a thread I made detailing my process - lots of photos (some of which I’ll be using for this IC /there’s examples of some I engraved and painted/ - go look! ^.^/*)

This IC is about bulk quantities of raw unfinished caps for people to laser engrave/paint/anodize/patina/etc themselves for resale/personal use
/Raw meaning bare metal that has not undergone any work post machining - these caps are a great blank canvas for lots of different finishing procedures/



Brass cap pricing
150$ for 5 caps (30$ each)
250$ for 10 caps (25$ each)
Aluminum cap pricing
200$ for 10 caps (20$ each)
360$ for 20 caps (18$ each)
any requests for larger quantities will have to be assessed individually
This is not a group buy.
Since I make these in house from scratch, I don’t see the reason to make a GB.
These caps are made to order
As of right now I can make about 60-80 caps a day
This post seems best suited for the artisan services channel but I am unable to post there. Instead of messaging mods I decided to write up this IC :D :thumb:
