As a brief introduction; Im a product of the times, I
graduated with a Masters degree in Architecture in Scotland
a few weeks before
this headline
add to this an unwillingness to move out of my immediate
area for work and I’m suddenly pretty much unemployable in
my area of study. So I fall back on my weekend/summer job
only unlike so many of my cohort this isnt bar work, or
waiting tables. I make jewellery, I always hesitate to call
myself a jeweller as I have no formal training, but I’ve
been doing it on and off for about eighteen years so I’m
fairly competent in what I’m doing. My elder brother is a
computer scientist, my younger a lecturer in electronic
engineering who recently introduced me to his Unicomp (and
now I own a KBT Pure with blue switches) so I’ve grown up
with computers and stuff around me my whole
life.
So Im an artisan jeweller, who spent a lot of
time on computers and is a bit of a geek
The outcome was,
lets face it, inevitable.
Apologies for the poor photography, something I never
really learned, love me some bokeh though. This is my
prototype silver key cap, which is as we type winging its
way to mkawa to be auctioned off as a donation to GH. I’m
sure hell take some better pictures and then I’ll steal
borrow them!
I’m going to make another for
myself (this time in Cherry profile rather than OEM) and a
few people on bit-tech have raised interest, so I thought Id
post here to see if anyone was interested.

So in a fit of madness I’ve decided to do all five
major cap types simultaneously - I had planned to do them
all, but there was going to be much staggering involved.
However, I decided that would be too much trouble to keep
track of which was happening when, who’s turn it was next,
which profile’s I’d done for which switch… So instead of
just the two cap types, there’s also going to be Alps (cheep
ebay board on it’s way to me) BucklingSpring (to be borrowed
from my brother) and Topre (kindly loaned by longweight)
What
this does is push the time scale back a bit… it’s not as bad
as it first appears as I work some extra hours in December
anyway, but it’ll still most likely be mid/late January that
the final products will ship, assuming I don’t wear my
finger tips down to the bone polishing them all up… need to
get me an army of gnomes!
