-The keycaps I'm using have a DES profile. The original design files are hosted at [pseudoku/PseudoMakeMeKeyCapProfiles](https://github.com/pseudoku/PseudoMakeMeKeyCapProfiles), which were then exported as STL, touched up and uploaded at [sporkus/PseudoMakeMeKeyCapProfiles](https://github.com/sporkus/PseudoMakeMeKeyCapProfiles). I opened the STL files in Microsoft 3D Builder and "repaired" them, they are just here for reference in relation to my builds.
+The keycaps I'm using have a DES profile. The original design files are hosted at [pseudoku/PseudoMakeMeKeyCapProfiles](https://github.com/pseudoku/PseudoMakeMeKeyCapProfiles), which were then exported as STL, touched up and uploaded at [sporkus/PseudoMakeMeKeyCapProfiles](https://github.com/sporkus/PseudoMakeMeKeyCapProfiles). I made some modifications so that I could order them from a resin printing service online.
+
+Modifications:
+- After opening them in the often already installed Microsoft 3D Builder app, I clicked on the popup that appears to "repair" each of the files.
+- Added some supports for resin prints.
+- Combined models of various files together for the Corne expansion file.
+
+After printing, cleaning up any left-over supports is easiest by taking some scissors and placing each leg on either side of one of the keycap walls underneath the support strands. Then use the scissors as a lever to push the support material off. Optionally sand the bottom of the keycap afterwards.
+
+## File combinations
+By printing or ordering certain combinations of files you can get yourself a full keycap set.

 ## Keymap
 Many keymaps make use of holding keys to distinguish from their tap behavior. However, holding keys really sucks! For me it feels like tapping two keys is less effort than holding a key. So the philosophy behind the keymap is to be **strictly tap only**. If you're curious about how that's possible and which tricks were pulled to make it easier to use click the image below.

+## Aurora Corne V1.1 - splitkb.com
+With frequent moving of the keyboard between home and work, the rotary encoders were the first to break. I also didn't get much use out of the trackpad, since it requires lifting your hand and at that point you might as well reach for the mouse. A break in the audio jack connections was the final straw. It was time for a new keyboard and I have been wanting a 6th column for a while, so coming from a trusted vendor, the choice for the Aurora Corne was made.

 ## Dilemma V2 - Bastard Keyboards
-Since getting my first split keyboard I never stopped trying to optimize my keymap to the point that the most noticable discomfort was having to switch over to the mouse every now and then. I tried mouse keys, but could never get used to them so I started looking at the keyboards offered on bastardkb.com. The OLED displays were only used for layer/mod indicators, which I thought would be easier to spot if the keys themselves lit up as indicators with RGB. Throw in rotary encoders which I didn't have before and the decision was made. Click the image below for more details on the build.

 ## Kyria rev2.0 - splitkb.com
-As a programmer I need to be able to type comfortably for many years. To avoid RSI related problems in the future, I wanted to stay ahead and get a more ergonomic keyboard. It was perfect timing, because I was transitioning from a laptop to a gaming PC at the same time, so I needed a new keyboard anyways. Click the image below for more details on the build.
