finite sapphire
#

could it be fake themn?

edgy nexus
#

Nah the fakes cost that much

#

Go on kynetic labs

#

Its cheaper and high quality too

frank ether
#

did you only need one sheet or more than one?

edgy nexus
#

You can buy the brushes and stuff

finite sapphire
#

okok

quiet bay
#

u should order ur lube from keyboard websites like divinikey

edgy nexus
finite sapphire
#

should I get that sorbrothane too?

edgy nexus
#

If you want too

quiet bay
#

the wooting 60he already comes with foam

finite sapphire
edgy nexus
#

Btw @frank ether youre gonna need to put some medical tape on it

finite sapphire
#

quiet bay
#

and its pretty good

edgy nexus

As its sticky af

edgy nexus
finite sapphire
#

okok

edgy nexus
#

Put it on the palet

Nonono

edgy nexus
#

Ah nvm

Okay I think i have everything I need for the mods before my case gets here

shell geode
edgy nexus
#

But they got sick keycaps tho lol

edgy nexus

And sorry for the ping earlier btw

edgy nexus
shell geode
edgy nexus
#

Gawd damn

#

I mean i didnt even have mine yet and ordered a whole ass 130$ case for it

shell geode
#

I also ordered a bunch of stuff at the same time

somber scroll
#

I did a silicone pour in the default case (everything about the keyboard was stock) and preferred the default foam. Silicone made it a tad more poppy imo

jade tree
#

Anyone played with 3D-printing keycaps?
Are printers even able to print the dimensions of the contact area with the switch?

I was thinking about printing the not so used keys like ESC, to get a themed logo and such.

jade tree
somber scroll
#

Buy craft silicone, cover any holes, pour the silicone

#

Basically you’re just filling the space where the foam is. Also a bit sketchy because it doesn’t compress as much as foam (or much at all) so if you pour too much you could put a lot of pressure on the sensitive components on the back of the PCBA

mental hemlock
#

can someone help me find who's wooting this belongs to

#

for these two people

slim slate
#

Hello hello, I wanted to ask about lubing the stabilisers

#

I saw Someone in a video just absolutely cover them in lube, is that really the way to go?

bronze grove
#

Eh... yesno?

slim slate
#

Because for Switches I’ll go with the less is more method

slim slate
bronze grove
slim slate
#

But that’s the switch, I meant stabilisers

#

Or is that the same for stabilisers?

bronze grove
#

He's literally lubing a stabilizer in the TIMESTAMP

slim slate
#

Oh nvm, it actually didn’t jump to the timestamp for me

#

It jumped to my last watched position which was the Switches

#

Thank you, that’s what I was thinking

#

That’s a very luby boy in the end

any good ways to silent the board without opening it up?

Not really. Also which board?

untold wigeon
#

wooting60

#

this is the loudest linear keeb i ever used KEKW

frank ether
#

is the foam mod on PCB worth/ can you do it on the wooting?

river saffron
#

White or yellow

#

Strap will probably be black and white

untold wigeon

#

Digging that Yellow!

#

Very Woot

normal schooner
#

the foam mod?

frank ether
#

you put foam packing in between PCB and the switches

normal schooner
#

the switch pops in the pcb

#

?

#

are you confused with another mod

frank ether
#

maybe

#

here's the video that explains it

normal schooner
#

im not convinced that will help you but maybe someone else in this channel has a different opinion on that

#

for the tapemod, alot of people like that

#

we also have a video for the tapemod, but not for the foam mod.

frank ether
#

yeah I was asking about he foam specifically, not tape mod. I've never seen that sort of idea before

normal schooner
#

sorry man thats all I have for you, maybe someone else knows more

shell geode
#

@bronze grove Do we have an exploded view of the Wooting 60he? Perhaps a rendering showing the different layers would be helpful to new users looking to mod their board

bronze grove
#

Don't know about an exploded render. But there's 3D files on github, we have several videos and some photo galleries of the disassembly.

shell geode
frank ether
#

i wasn't sure if there was

shell geode

royal dragon

For some reason the blank look has always been cool to me

shell geode

#

what case is that

shell geode
somber scroll
shell geode
#

A nicely built and affordable ITX case that can fit a 280mm radiator, the only gripe I have with it is that it's hard to insert multiple video cables into the GPU because the exit comes out from the bottom and flexing the cable to go out the back instead may be a bit much depending on the cable. I had to 3D print blocks to act as feet for it when I had it sit vertically on my desk

mental hemlock
#

custom cables time

shell geode
somber scroll
# shell geode The end result!

Here it is. I’ve had it in a plastic bag since deciding to not use it and it’s weirdly got some oil on the surface or something. Not sure why. Maybe didn’t cure enough 🤷🏼‍♂️

mental hemlock
shell geode
#

Ah I see the shine of the oil on the corner there, I'll make a note to let it cure longer, or mix more

mental hemlock
#

i cant help but note some optimum tech influence

somber scroll
#

Yeah. It’s also been rolled up and touching itself in the sealed bag so maybe something weird going on. Honestly didn’t expect it tho when I pulled it out of the bag haha

shell geode

somber scroll
#

Nah I still have the stock case. It made it slightly more poppy and I liked the default foam sound more haha

Not sure if I didn’t put enough in or what but it just barely made it sound worse so didn’t figure I needed to bother using it haha

mental hemlock
#

amazing bro, real time audio mixing

tall hollow
mental hemlock
#

it lets you mix system audio and your own boice

#

so it feels more immersibe instead of blocked off

tall hollow
#

well, if thats the case, mix it more vigorously next time

austere cradle
somber scroll
#

I did use a plastic cup that I’ve used for other stuff. So it’s possible it had some contaminates or I didn’t mix it quite well enough

Measuring the ratio in a measuring cup is enough, right?

since the rails are a bit wide, it is a bit harder to get onto the switch than normal gateron switches.

switch pads are fine, its basically PE foam mod but much thinner.

all it did was dampen the sound a bit.

to make it slightly quieter.

only thing is that I have like 2 keyboards to lube lol

Take your time! A little lube goes a LONG way, and you don't want to rush through it you're gonna have to redo them

my custom and the wooting

Is there a way to reduce the stem wobble?

Something soft like medical tape or smooth like bandaid

Will that affect the accuracy of the switch?

it sounds so good

its like 5 minutes per switch

but i feel like theyre heavier

#

since they dont make as much sound or is it because I overlubed?

I just finished my whole top row of letters and now imma go to bed lmao gon finish the rest tomorrow

#

it sounds so good now that ive lubed it compared to the rest of the keyboard

Remember you have to re-lube every month

Does anyone know if this PCB is compatible with the original case of WOOTING?(60HE) https://mekanisk.com/products/wt60-h-hot-swap-pcb?variant=40678952370350
And if anyone around knows alternative PCB working?

Isn't this the back of the PCB? (since it suppose to go on Klippe and Fjell that are compatible with this PCB and the 60HE from my understanding)

Probably everything except some low profile keycaps, I dunno

pastel arch
#

Is there a name for the standard ones?

dark saddle

I mean any Cherry MX Profile, OEM profile, SA / ASA profile will fit pretty much

Literally I'd be impressed if you found Keycaps that did -not- fit.

austere creek

ud basically see even more of the switch

dark saddle
#

I just meant I'm sure there's some type that doesn't, but I can't say that 100%, but basically any keycaps should fit

To buy separately

they have anounced they are going to sell a alu case for 60he
also standalone PCB / switchs

that's awesome

there is a picture of a protoype here somewhere

longest can be 15mm or minimum can be 7mm
are all the screws the same size ?

Take your board apart systematically and measure? I would expect all screws to be the same length though.

haughty delta
#

I think they were asking if that cable would work with the tachyon feature lmao

somber scroll
haughty delta

Pretty sure it has to be under 2 meters though

haughty delta

Or 1 meter? Im not sure

bronze grove

Our stock cables are 6ft or just around 1.8m in total.

dark saddle
#

Oh I got a unique idea I've not see anyone do. a Clear cable, so you can see the copper inside. 😛

That'd be fancy for sure.

Kind of hard since they generally have a metallic wrap for insulation.

the wooting two he has how much in frequency? 1000hz or 8000hz?

bronze grove
dark saddle
#

Also keep in mind 4000-8000hz polling can negatively affect performance in many games

#

Heck, even 1000HZ can. A lot of professionals recommend 250hz to 500hz for the least amount of stuttering / hitches in games

#

Smoothest frame-time graph

#

They take inputs differently than other games. Because of how reliant inputs are on timing.

Huh? Give it the juice?

fading holly
#

I think he means Tachyon mode. 😄

dark saddle
#

So in non Tachyon mode it's only at 500HZ? Weird it's not an exposed option

#

Given how hardcore the software is

dark saddle
#

Where is that stated?

edgy nexus
#

@shell geode almost done lubing my switches I just need the bottom 2 rows and im done

fading holly
# dark saddle Where is that stated?

I think you can only infer that from the description Wooting provides for the 60HE Tachyon Mode: The 60HE will update every analog key position in less than 1ms, every 1ms.

Every 1ms would indicate to me a polling rate of 1000hz.

But I couldn't find any technical data on their official page. :/

it sounds amazing compared to before

Just make sure to filter by in stock or you may end up ordering a set that will take like 2 years to get to you

Does anyone know how some guys managed to plate swap the 60 HE properly? I didn't manage to find much on the web.

bronze grove

They had custom ones made.

#

You need a plate with standoffs glued or soldered to the right spots.

junior glen
bronze grove
#

Uncoiled they would be longer.

#

Coiled? Not sure. It's an ongoing project. Calder will leak news when he feels like it (and has something concrete to share)

Is Wooting still experimenting with other plate materials?

austere creek
#

yes but heavy emphasis on experimenting

prototypes were available at the wootup for testing

is there like a different way to take out the switches on 60he

my old keyboard was able to remove them easily with the switch puller

nvm i got it 💀

If you look up the Wooting Lube video we made, we show how to wiggle pull them up, and/or screw the entire board apart and only pull switches with the switch plate in hand.

Keycaps finally came in loving the look now debating if I really want to paint the case to match or leave it blank

#

How different colors look thru the caps, only thing I ended up having to do was use O rings cuz the caps are just tall enough that they hit the board on full press not a sound I'm a fan of

bronze grove
#

As someone with an old 80s IBM themed 60HE, I would definitely consider giving that switch plate a beige look 😄

The Baka60 feels more dense, kinda like handling a brick, and the typing sounds thockier. The PSD60 doesn't feel quite as solid, but is heavier, even without the brass weight. It also types clackier
