Hi Everyone!

Today's release unfortunately, is not quite holiday related, but is one that I am still super excited about! The next Christmas/Winter themed packs are taking a little bit longer than I had anticipated to perfect as I've been a little under the weather this past week, so Nick ended up stepping in to ensure we had something to share with you all! Nick and I have been in this business together from the get-go with me handling the bulk of designing while he handles the bulk of our logistical needs, but he's really the one who go me into designing, so while I've been on the struggle bus and trying to focus on getting healthy, Nick helped to create a simpler model that has been highly requested: The large, multi-clicker Cat Paw! In addition to this new Cat Paw model, we went back and remixed the clicker insert of the large Dog Paw with our more versatile base revision, as well as added a base option with some ADORABLE little paw prints going across it, to give it a little more character! I am soooo excited to finally offer a cat paw to go with the dog paw! Hope you love it! 🐾

If you were looking for more Holiday & Winter themed, don't worry! I am feeling much better and have spent the bulk of this weekend getting back into the design groove so we'll be back on that winter theme soon! ☕🎅🎄

Paw Print Multi-Pack Remix can be found HERE!

Like most of my designs, this is a clicky design that requires a mechanical keyboard switch to make the clicky part. These models feature a universal base design which has been tested with many keyboard switches and 99% of them work! I have an up to date list of verified clickers with links you can find HERE. 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 design contains the toe bean caps as well as the base which has a keychain and non-keychain option. The keychain hole is sized for a 25mm (1 inch) binder ring.

3D Printing Settings: 

Layer Height: 0.2mm (recommended)

External Perimeter: 0.33mm

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:

Small Details (Small Paw Prints)

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.

⚠️WARNING⚠️ - 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!

Stay Pawsitive! 🐾

What is the setting under to adjust external perimeter? Thank you also.

In Bambu, it's under Quality then Line Width and finally Outer Wall

Jamie

Glad you are feeling better ❤️

Blake

Thank you very much and keep up the amazing work. 😊👍🏻

YAY!!! I am so glad that you are feeling better. Been thinking about you all week and hoping so.

I am ABSOLUTELY THRILLED about the new remix and especially the CAT PAW. WHOO HOO. Getting this on the printer right now. We have been printing a ton of the flakes since we are in the land of snow and ice. We think they should go as well as the rest of 'em. Just got a whole revamped display set today at our local shop and immediately someone new was drawn to them. Can't wait to add the large cat paw to the mix. Any update on the pawper order and when they might be back in stock? thanks so much. I hope you have a great weekend.

Alyssa

Have you tried gateron switches? They’re easier to find here in Oz 😂

Pawpular Prints

So happy you like the paw! I plan to print a ton of flakes just for give aways at family and work Christmas! The Pawpers we predict will be back in Stock in about 2 weeks, based on historic timelines. As soon as they are in hands they will be up on our site and we’ll make an announcement!

Pawpular Prints

Yes! Gateron are compatible with this new insert revision! So the paws and the leafs, and gingersnaps and flakes should all fit gateron! All future models will be compatible and in time we’ll be revising all previous models with our new insert revision as well!

Jamie

I have 2 cat paw prints printing as we speak 🤗 I absolutely LOVE all of your files!!! Can't wait to see what else there is to come!

Pawpular Prints

Sooo happy you like the files! Can't wait to see your prints! Hope we can continue to create designs you love!

Magenta Riley Designs

I love these designs!! Any chance of more single colour prints? My printer only does one colour per print 😭

Is there a guide on how to put in the switches and which things to cut off? I cut off the metal pins box the Kailh White and I seem to have to cut the plastic ones too other than the middle one but I don't see you saying that. Also You have the caps market 1-4 but there is not markings on the paw to know which slot is which and despite them being laid in order means you could have mirror them or assumed you are putting them in the order they go on you just flip them. it would be very helpful to my dumb, overthinking, engineering brain if you could either show a picture of the base with 1-4 on them. :) The second thing is that you only have numbers on 1 of the 2 caps in the file. I'm guessing this is just an oversite but adds to the confusions.

Also Is there a guid of of the direction to put in the keycaps. I see two indentions in the base but those don't seem to line up with anything on the Kalih v2 white keycaps I bought and even if they did they could go one of two ways. Also when I put them in they don't seem like they fit that perfectly the seem off to one side. A picture would help or a very quick video. I'm assuming I'm doing something wrong as the gap seems off and uneven around the keycaps. I don't think that should be the case. I don't think it is a print issue as it isn't one specific direction and the keycaps go in perfectly. I feel like I have to be missing something. Any help would be appreciated.

There's a lot here and this would probably be best answered on the Discord but I'll try as best I can here! If you want to join the Discord, check out the Announcements collection on Patreon and scroll all the way to the bottom to find the Discord post. The caps are marked 1-4, left to right so number 1 is the far left if you're looking at the paw from the top and 4 would be the far right. I had 2 options for the paw caps in case someone didn't want to print it with the numbers. They are identical otherwise and I prefer the numbers on the cat paw at least because those caps are too symmetrical! The Kailh V2's come with the 2 metal pins as well as 2 additional plastic posts that must be cut off. That is the only clicker that is like that so I didn't mention it in the clicker post. The Kailh's can fit in 2 ways but don't fit the other 2 ways so you have a 50/50 chance of putting it in right! The Kailh's are slightly rectangular so that's how I line them up. Cherry MX or Gaterons are more square so they are harder to figure out the correct direction. You should hear a click when you press the Kailh in if you've got the direction correct and it should be very hard to remove. Just ping me in the #help channel on Discord if you get on there and I can show you pictures and videos if you're still having problems! Hope this helps :)

Hi Magenta! I am trying to make sure there are more single-color friendly designs or configurations in the future! There is a Badge we have started using (gray in the lower right hand corner) for the photos that indicate if there are raised or single-color friendly options!

Alyssa

This is amazing and will make life way easier! 😂 Thank you. Just signed up and had two markets this weekend and my regular customers are in love!

Blue

Thank you. What is the link for the discord?

Hi, mine arent fitting like they usually do either. The one in the middle clicks in nicely, the other 4 do not go in flush, and get really stuck if they are in wrong which I don't know that until I try it. I bought 1000 of the Kailh white ones off your list . I've been using them in all the other designs so far without issues.

It would be nice to know if/where to add print pauses when slicing to allow for manual filament changes.
