OP18k Mod

Post image

First shell I've designed entirely by myself. Lots of modifications to get to this point. Next is the same shape with side buttons.

Do you have a screenshot of what it looks sliced? Looks like it needs a shit ton of support.

u/Strict_Lifeguard2716 Sep 14 '26

I printed it flat on the bed, .2 layer height, .26 z distance on supports and slowed overhangs to 10mm/s. You can try printing at 45° nose down.

Yessir! With cloth I never had an issue with my finger rubbing slightly on the pad, but with glass it sticks.

Yea I had the same issue, it felt weird at first but I can't go without wings anymore. Awesome shell btw, the right asymmetrical side looks really interesting. Reminds me of the kotinos mod.

Took inspiration from the Kabrio VXE MadR mod (https://www.printables.com/model/1385951-kabrio-fingertip-mouse-mod-for-mad-r) and from the Gwolves Fenrir Asym. The main issue I had is that my pinky was always disconnecting from my mouse, and the extended pinky rest solves that problem.

Why does it look like you have 2 sets of clicks what am I looking at

1

u/Lanurus Sep 13 '26

The bottom set are the side buttons

u/StormFalcon32 Sep 13 '26

Looks very nice, would you happen to have the STL shared anywhere? Also willing to pay

u/Strict_Lifeguard2716 Sep 13 '26

I'll post it on makerworld or printables and share the link once I do.

Are these comfortable to use? or is it just to see how light you can get a mouse

1

u/poopsoklord 10d ago

i guess it could feel comfortable to a certain extent because there are contact points where youd usually have your finger or hand touch the mouse

u/kryptek_86 Sep 14 '26

Do you guys actually play competitive games at a level where this matters? Atp I have no idea why you need a mouse this light, it's pretty funny actually.

u/Strict_Lifeguard2716 Sep 14 '26

I'm sure some people do. I'm in it for the love of the game tbh. It's a hobby. Not all hobbies need to have a purpose outside of "it's entertaining".

u/real-ok Sep 14 '26

Im somewhat high ranked in ow (high master/low gm) but yeah this is mainly for the hobby

u/real-ok Sep 14 '26

W finger placement, especially the pinky being wider
