Hi there! Thank you for making such a helpful video! I had a question regarding the curing process. I've read that a vacuum chamber is needed for minimizing bubbles but saw that you were using a pressure pot instead. does that mean a vacuum chamber is unnecessary? Thanks!
Thank you for watching!!! So.. IMO you don't need a vacuum chamber. Most of the keycap makers I've seen tend to use a pressure pot for both the silicone and resins.
Yooo this video is so helpful, I didn’t even know you could do this. Keep up the fire vids. (Also I have a question, how long does usually shipping take for z butt molds to come in? Iv been waiting awhile)
Is this system 3D printed? Im trying to print it but the “+” in the master base (for example) doesnt finish well and my keycap isnt going in. Any suggestions?
i know this is kinda old but just in case you still need help, yes this system is 3d printed Im not an expert but ive printed this successfully and am using it so maybe i can help you troubleshoot what kind of printer are you using?
Excuse me, im use Zbutt V2 MX 1U to print the stem and nohassle container but the problem is not fit when i try to put the stem in to the box? Do you know this problem, i used elegoo saturn to printed. Thx
Zappy includes them if you order the kit from his website! Otherwise, you can always buy the metal poles yourself. I believe they are 3mm metal dowels.
Great video! 🦾🍻👍 can you make a stick with a small epoxy ball at the end of it to replace your tooth picks to release the air bubbles? Maybe put your logo in the stick even 😂
I think these should work: www.amazon.com/dp/B07Y58PJL4?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details But I would definitely double check in the Z-butt discord! The good people over there know
@@CosmoCaps Omg i edited accidentally ! This my coment " I'm new to artio keycaps, due to some problems I had to get the silicone off the Zbutt V1 because of the vacuum and the shafts. Is v2 better in this regard? what can v2 help me more than v1 ? "
I literally just did my first mould with the V2 and have been looking for videos on and cosmo uploads this! Perfect timing :)
Awesome!!! glad I could help!!!

What stem have you used in this vides. Regular or recessed. I would like to buy one, but I'm confused with that. Thanks.
I have the regular one! I'm actually not too sure on the exact differences between the two. Would be best to join the Z-butt discord and ask there!

@@CosmoCaps I see! Thank you for the swift response!
is there a way to duplicate the z butt pieces using the legos instead of the no hassle container?
Possibly! Best to ask the Z-butt discord for help - I'm not too sure as I've never tried using legos myself.
are these parts available for 3D printing?
What is the material you used when you printed the Z butt system? PLA? Resin?
I bought mine from Zappy directly. So I didn't print anything!
I think generally they use resin printers though.
I suggest to buy original system.
I had issues with printing company.. they failed multiple times to print perfect dimensions..
@@pastuh yeah, some printing services don't do so well.
I would just order from Zappy: www.zappycappys.com/
@@CosmoCaps do they ship outside US? In thd Philippines?
@@jtfied5300 not sure. You can ask Zappy!!! Join the zbutt discord!!!
What kind of silicon do you use? I need you to tell me the strength or name of the silicone.
Mold star 30!

Thanks!!!
Hmm.. my zbutt v2 pro kit took around 2-3 weeks until it arrived!
should i print these z butt system with resin printer? or i can just print with fdm printer?
you should use a resin printer. More people can help you out in the zbutt discord!!!
what is the name of the silicone?
actually I was looking for raw silicone gums but couldn't find any

Im not an expert but ive printed this successfully and am using it so maybe i can help you troubleshoot
what kind of printer are you using?
Thanks for ur help but i have solved it already, just using a 0.2mm nozzle.
I was using 0.4mm
any idea how to clone the reservoir with a handle?
What do you mean "with a handle" ?

The stem cavity does not fit in the no hassle container?
@@CosmoCaps do you have insta or facebook friend, i will send the picture to you. Plz help me
pt2 plz!
in the works! :D
how do you get aluminum poles on stemcavity?
Zappy includes them if you order the kit from his website!
Otherwise, you can always buy the metal poles yourself. I believe they are 3mm metal dowels.

Interesting idea!
what is the length of the metal rod u used?

thanks!
Thanks for watching!!
Just a tip, you could have used liquid vaseline in the mold to easily removed the final piece.
Interesting.. my workspace is already so messy though so I'm less inclined to add more things hahaha
fine fam how u doin?
Great! Thanks for watching
you !
