1. Keyrigami? What the ...?

Keyrigami is a neologism out of Key(caps) and Kirigami, a variation of Origami. The word keyrigami was first mentioned by u/impudentmortal on Reddit, where I had posted a picture of my Origamikeyboard.

2. Before you start

You will need only a few things to build your own set of paperkeycaps. First of all you need paper. A weight of 120g-300g should work. Next you need a printer to print the templates of the keycaps and you need also a 3D printer to 3D print the stems of the keycaps. Or at least you should know someone who has a 3D printer and owes you a favor. Furthermore you will need some ordinary office stuff, like glue, scissors and so on. In the wiki, I'll go into details.

3. Where to start

Have a look at the dsa_family/cad folder, there are the original keyrigami files from my Origamikeyboard.
