What would it take to add a new profile? I'm curios about Signature Plastics DSS family, but I haven't seen many renders for it before, and I am unsure if models already exist for it. If creating models for these was something useful, I could try to do it, but I'm not very familiar with the process.

Here's a sheet about the DSS structure: https://pimpmykeyboard.com/content/DSS_Family_Updated.pdf

Thanks for the interest! Have you created models in Blender before?

I haven't, unfortunately. I opened up template.blend and played with the existing keys a bit, but I don't know how to build them from scratch.

It's quite a rabbit hole 😁 I think it might be most helpful to find a tutorial about modeling in blender from a reference image (or for 3d printing). Something like this maybe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSR6bVFe5LM
After you've modeled the keys I can help with using them in this tool, they get split into 9 segments to be used in the script. Let me know if I can help any more!

I can throw in a $25 bounty if someone makes this work for DSS!
