Yes, the clear 1st shot caps look stylish. I'm not thinking about backlighting, these are very neat as they are. They are the prime candiate I'd pick for mass production.

The stem belongs to the second shot, and that’s bad. And the first shot has gaps all over the place. (Reminder, look under your double shots) So it is possible (maybe), just not with their machinery.

That was obviously a joke,
but it is a good occasion to confirm phetto's and CeeSa's posts.

I don't intend to write the whole wiki myself. Seriously, I don't live inside the Deskthority server.
