This print makes it relatively easy to pop a tight fitting keycap off of a choc switch.

After working with choc switches and keycaps for a little bit, I was tired of:

  1. Pulling tight fitting keycaps off of the switches
  2. Stabbing myself with the switch pins.

This print essentially uses a wedge to gradually pry the keycap from the switch. It was designed with standard choc v1 switches and Chosfox blank keycaps. Therefore, it may not be perfect for all keycaps. 

Printing:

There is very little detail so feel free to ramp up the layer height. I used 0.3mm

This must be printed on its side so that the U is visible when looking down on the build plate. This is to ensure that the part can flex when squeezed.
