KLP Lamé — Kailh Choc & MX Keycaps

Sculpted and curved keycaps for Kailh Choc and MX switches. Here is a project structure:

STEP and STL folders contain all combinations of Choc/MX Stem + Choc/MX Size.

There is also 90 deg Rotated variants for Choc Stem.

There are currently 7 variants of 1U keycaps:

And also 5 variants of 1.5U keycaps:

What keycaps do I need for my keyboard?

First, you should choose Choc/MX stem (depends of your switches)
Second, choose Choc/MX size that is suitable for your keyboard.
Then, pick what keycap variants you want for your columns/rows/thumbs. It depends entirely of your choice.

For corne-like keyboards with 36-keys I use:

or

Where to buy?

Use middle click or tap & hold to open in new tab

How to print?

It is best to position the model more vertically to avoid tactile layer-to-layer bumps. Personally, I use 45° or 75° angle, but it's up to you.

Production folder contains files that you can use in any 3D-printing service like JLC3DP or PCBWay. You can download them directly using links below:

Normal

Saddle

Thumbs

Can I use these models for a production and sale?

Yes. But you must leave a mention of this repository/author to end users.

Can I modify, fork, post (or whatever) these models?

Yes. Rules are the same. Give a credit to the author.
