If you're not afraid to write some code yourself, at the base level this library _should_ function well as a key profile design library. by loading up `src/key.scad` (notice no s) you can tweak variables in `src/settings.scad` to prototype your own profiles. You can design your own keyset with custom width height and depth, dish tilt, top skew, fonts, wall thickness, etc. If you're not afraid to write some code yourself, at the base level this library _should_ function well as a key profile design library. by loading up `src/key.scad` (notice no s) you can tweak variables in `src/settings.scad` to prototype your own profiles.

## I'm not getting good prints... ![three stop-sign shaped keys with legends](assets/example5.JPG)
## Printing Help
Prints from this library are still challenging, despite all efforts to the contrary. Resin printers can create great looking keycaps; FDM printers can create usable keys that look alright, but may require tweaking to get prints acceptable. There are a few quick things that you can do: Prints from this library are still challenging, despite all efforts to the contrary.
