About Project

Many people like to decorate their keyboards with our artisan keycaps sold on Etsy, but it's the first time a client directly ordered the keyboard frames from us. He planned to ship the materials to us for manufacturing first, but then we found the iridescent acrylic sheets are also sold in China. The outcome is beautiful. They are blue as there are protective films on them.

Solution

  • Step 1: Communicate with the client to ensure the dimension, and make clear about the cut-out parts. Examine the files to ensure they can come out with smooth edge and no cracks.
  • Step 2: Give the quote of material, laser cutting service, and shipping cost based on the PDF file. As only AI/DXF/DWG files can be used for laser cutting, we will charge a little on format conversion or ask the client to offer.
  • Step 3: Set and tune the laser cutter, fix the acrylic board, and process as programmed.
