@Greg@social.coop we made some keycaps the other day. At first just to replace a broken one. But then some more because it was cool. The cross shaped hole on the keycap underside is at the boundary of Toybox's resolution, because the cross shaped stem on the key switch that fits in it needs just the right amount of friction in the fit, so you can attach the keycap without pushing the stem into the switch, but when you pull the keycap afterwards, it doesn't just fall off...

    @Greg@social.coop ... It didn't work straight out of the printer, but it was fixed with a minute's careful application of a small jeweler's file to clean up the definition of the cross shaped hole.
