This is a simple Fusion360 project that makes it easy to customize a keycap that allows a symbol or letter to be lit up by a keyboard's backlight. 

To create your keycap: 

  1. open the Fusion360 project and double click on the sketch in the timeline that is named “EDIT THIS SKETCH”
  2. Draw your symbol within the box. Make sure there ARE NO ISLANDS in your symbol.
  3. Click finish in the sketch window and extrude your symbol -1mm
  4. Make any other changes to the keycap that you want.
  5. Export the keycap and diffuser bodies separately or use the “Split to Objects” button in Prusa Slicer
  6. Rotate so the flat faces are on the build plate. No supports necessary. 
  7. Print the diffuser in white (I used PETG) and the keycap in a not really transparent filament (I used grey PLA)
