Since I started with making emojis, I knew eventually there NEEDED to be a poop emoji. Not gonna lie, the poop emoji was designed months ago but I just didn't quite know what type of pack to release it with. I started designing a few other popular 'emojis' and Nick took the poop, fire, and balloon to work as a pack. With that, apparently the engineers went to work on naming the pack and that night he came home to tell me we needed a water drop... the best name a group of engineers could come up with was the 4 elements! So, we created the 4th element and here we are! I hate to admit that it actually works quite well! π₯ππ§π©
Like most of my designs, this is a clicky design that requires a mechanical keyboard switch to make the clicky part. These models have been tested with both the Kailh Bronze and Kailh White clickers but the White clickers are much nicer in my opinion. I did also try the Kailh White V2 and Kailh Jade switches and they work just as well as the White/Bronze but they are a bit pricier. This design should be compatible with most MX style keyboard switches, however, the two metal contacts on the bottom of the switch must be clipped off flush (or folded over) to ensure the switch seats properly in the base (this is a destructive process). A 7mm keyring file is included as well as a larger, 3.5mm diameter keyring hole to allow a beaded chain to be used!
This pack contains four fabulous emojis. Each emoji has one base and one multi-color cap as seen in the photos. The fire, water and air (balloon) also have a blank cap option for single extruder printers. Each base is provided with the standard keychain configurations, none, 7mm and 3.5 diameter keyring.
3D Printing Settings:
Layer Height: 0.2mm (recommended)
External Perimeter (Outer Wall): 0.33mm (recommended)
Scale: 100% (Everything is modeled with tight tolerances and should not need to be resized)
Orientation: Print the caps face down so you have a smooth surface for clicking! (recommended for flat)
NOTE: I've found the best way to get the most crisp details on these clickers is to start with the smallest details first and work up from there. Here is the order I recommend after LOTS of trial and error:
White (pupils/teeth/sheen)
Black (eyes/mouth)
yellow(center fire)
Everything else (base colors)
I've also found hitting the print with a heat gun right before the main body color starts printing will eliminate any little strings that can cause blemishes on the final design.
β οΈWARNINGβ οΈ - This pack requires very good bed adhesion to ensure the best possible results for your finished clicker. It is recommended to clean your bed with soap and water before printing or whatever your specific printer manufacturer recommends for a deep bed clean!
