Using silicone rubber to make a custom overlay

This video shows the process of someone making a custom overlay for the LinnStrument using silicone rubber. This might be informative/inspiring to someone who wants to produce a custom overlay for the Sensel Morph. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6gLo2d41Sc

Thanks for sharing, Tim.

He does not show how he made the mold and what material he used. I have used clearflex in the past which feels a lot like the clear Sensel overlay.

It looked like the mold might be 3D printed. …Tim…

Maybe you’re right. At the time I worked with clearflex we did not have 3D-printing (at least not that much) and we made our own molds, but I forgot the name of the material we used.

I’ve got a write up of doing it for the Morph here: 3d printed hexagons - #18 by mo-seph

tl;dr - it’s great! I’m loving my silicone overlays!
