I designed and printed a complete set of keycaps for my Atreus with individual tactile legends in Braille, details in the comments.
I used the superb KeyV2 library for OpenSCAD to generate the keycap models.

Finished my very first dactyl manuform 🎊 Why do we see so many printed cases but so little printed key caps?
Essentially I used this repo and it's OpenScad based generator: https://github.com/rsheldiii/KeyV2

Cherry mold?
Hey! I'm trying to do the same thing. If you need a keycap generator KeyV2, the OpenSCAD setup, did really well for me. I've been struggling though because I don't have a resin printer. The trickiest part of creating your own molds, is that it copies the finish of the source of the mold exactly. Want a shiny keycaps? Better have a shiny key to copy. Want a matte finish? Sure hope the source is matte. Let me know if you ever get this figured out because I started down the exact same path wanting cherry profile, but only finding OEM profile molds.

Custom generated DSA-profile keycaps
I would say its https://github.com/rsheldiii/KeyV2 or some fork of it, but I'd like to know the exact source too.

DSA profile keys on a phrozen mini 8k
DSA keys have a nice curved top and a consistent profile across all keys. These were generated with KeyV2 for my moonlander split keyboard since I need all 1u keys.

I see your puny, pathetic 20 PPM rotary encoders... and I raise you a 100 PPM encoder taken from a CNC!
any chance you could share your process for printing the stems? I have a 3d printing library for keycaps that supports choc keys, but the stems are really fragile...
-
My first keyboard design!
if you have access to a 3d printer you can also make double sculpted keycaps with my library. Choc stems are quite difficult to print though, your best bet is a resin printer

Mass export stl from text list ?
First time user of Openscad I am using it using rsheldiii/KeyV2: KeyV2: A Parametric Mechanical Keycap Library (github.com) project.
-
hey guys, it it true that you can make a ergomechkeyboard diy with 3d printer?

Vertical offset between rows with DSA
the downside of this approach is that you need to model the keycaps but thankfully libraries like resheldiii's KeyV2 exist.

My first keyboard design!
I think one dongle would cost around 15usd if you order everything from aliexpress. The pcbs are really cheap to print but there is also shipping. So the price is assuming that you order them at the same time as your keyboard pcbs. https://github.com/durken1/pierce/tree/develop here's a bill of materials. You need 1 pierce reciever pcb, 1 pro micro, 1 wireless module, 2 4.7k smd resistors, 1 3.3V regulator and a momentary switch for each dongle. Everything except the pro micro and the wireless module sells in packs. So it really is those that will be the bulk of the cost when making several.

I made my keyboard semi-wireless
Sure. I have the pcb on github: https://github.com/durken1/pierce
