Where to get prints for zbutt

Wanna get started casting keycaps right away but don't have access to a resin printer at home?

You can get yours today right here.

All Z-butt parts are available, and can have your very own custom Maker's Mark.

3D Printing Farms (Sculpteo, 3DHubs, etc)

Some of them may seem like a good value, but you never know who will pick up your order or what their quality standards are. Here are some examples of pretty rough prints that were considered acceptable, but are nowhere near as smooth as the ones from Zappy or another vendor in the Zbutt discord.
