More on +that later. + +## KLP-Lame-Keycaps + +The model of the caps are +[KLP-Lame](https://github.com/braindefender/KLP-Lame-Keycaps) by +[braindefender](https://github.com/braindefender) , they are super rounded and +smooth. They look really good on camera and feel good to the finders. + +![[new-caps-for-porta-john-20240805193001765.webp]] + +I printed these at home on my ender3 s1 pro with a black and purple silk +filliment. I printed all 42 at once using a [[knock-and-sweep]] technique. +They do have just a bit of a rough texture that you can feel on your figertips. +I printed these on super quality .12mm layer height, while my last set was +printed on draft quality .32mm layer height. They look crazy different in +print quality with the lines of the new caps barely showing, the feel isn't +nearly as drastic. + +## The Result + +Check out the final shots as I set up the porta-john with these sweet caps. + +![[new-caps-for-porta-john-20240805190712987.webp]] + +And here they are all set up. + +![[new-caps-for-porta-john-20240805190716762.webp]] + +## Full Disclosure + +I am building out a keyboard business, so if you are interested in getting some +of these caps for yourself or an entire board custom made to your liking hit me +up.
