March '25 Exclusive: Boba Blast MEGA-Pack 🥤⚫ (Patreon)

🔒 Archived 05/01/25 - You can get this file from Cults3D or MyMiniFactory.-------------------------------------------Hi Everyone! This is another design that has been requested a handful of times and I knew eventually I really wanted to get to! My first attempt at designing a 3D Boba, it got a little bit big, so I ended up going back and creating a smaller version figuring I'd decide which to share once printed... I liked them both so much that I couldn't decide and figured I'd let you all choose for yourself! I also wanted to do a few 2D options for quick, easy Boba prints! There may even be a version of the 2D flat cap without the Boba bubbles that I thought could double as a coffee (at least until I get around to another coffee pack!) This pack was super fun to design and I am so happy with how it turned out! Hope you enjoy! 🥤⚫
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).
This pack contains 9 unique base designs and 16 decorative caps. Raised variants are offered where able. Each 2D base and 3D mini Boba comes in the standard 7mm, 3.5mm diameter and blank keychain configuration. The larger Boba comes in a no keychain and larger (3.5mm diameter) keychain option.

3D Printing Settings:
Layer Height: 0.2mm (recommended)
External Perimeter (Outer Wall): 0.33mm (recommended)
First Layer Extrusion Width (Initial Layer Line Width): 0.35mm (recommended)
Only one wall on first layer: True (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:
Small Detail (Face, Boba)
Medium Detail (Dimples)
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 (flat designs ONLY)
⚠️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!
