What do o-rings do?
what website do I buy it on, amazon?
And switch films
Depends where you live
United states
It's like a mini gasket mod, reduce vibration between pcb and case
Wisconsin (cheese state)
Check out kinetic labs for lube or kbdfans for lots of mod stuff
Im in canada so shipping is a bitch for everything
Yeah, you can buy Amazon, look for 205g0 lube
You put those on the switches right?
Isnt krytox better than the the ones they sell on amazon
on th keyuboard I know nothing about modding
No, the o-rings go on between the pcb and case on your screws
also sry if my english is not that good
Yes
Ahh arent those standoff mounts?
You good man
Im french canadian so my english ass too
any other mods that I should do
They have Krytox on Amazon, and I guess you can call that a standoff mount, or Burger Mount as the popular term
Ahh exactly
Where can I find those or do I just make them myself
Start with lubing your switches and see if tha'ts good enough for you, and there's the tape mod if you have some painters tape
The 4mm x 1mm x 1.5mm will fit your screws, but you will also need longer screws, which are m2x7mm screws
What does tape mod do
Where would I find longer screws that fit my exact needs? Lol
i mean money isint a problem
ive been saving money to mod a keyboard
so I can go all out
It aint really about money
It just changes the sound of the keyboard. Here are some on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B082SVFWCS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Its about how you like it
Dont need to do a ton of mods if you like how ur keeb sounds after just one mod
Right, it's not money, its more on what you want to do and how far are you open to modding your board. Do you want a case swap? Do you want new keycaps? Is there a color you want?
You can check out the mods I've done: #1097648230176673872 message
Do you want to send me a quick buck at the same time you know its all those types of mods @finite sapphire
do u have a sound test?
I do! You can scroll down in the comments. I didn't think it through to link the typing video in the original post 😅
What do you mean quick buck? as in send you money? 😆
Lmfao yea
Was talking to stingy hahaha
oh haha
lol
Why did you tape mod ur switches lmfao
Thank you! It doesn't sound anything like when I first got it, well also the pcb, switch plate, and switches are the only Wooting things in this build 😆
how much did it cost you?
A bunch
I taped the top housing to reduce the spring ping sound when the stem makes contact with the housing
Ahhh
I alr spent like 200 just for a case and some lube
@shell geode should I buy a lubing station or not necessary
60he: $175
Baka60: $50
PSD60: $60
Stabilizers: $20
O-rings: $8
Keycaps: $100
Sorbothane: $30
Brass weight: $20
$460 (Not including lube, tape, and the time I put into it)
Only necessary if you lube switches often, like you build multiple boards as a hobby, for friends/family/clients, etc
out of all those mods
what do u reccomend first?
I have a broked ducky mecha mini case
can I use that?
I would recommend lubing and tape mod first, and go from there if you want to explore more
whats tape mod?
Tape the back of the pcb
does it have to be tape
or is there a different material that I can use for better quality
whats pcb
like the pannel?
I know nothing 💀
The thing thats in the video above
the dude is attaching what I assume to be blue masking tape onto it
printed circuit board i think
@shell geode whats that film thingy u put on the inside of the switches>
they are literally just called switch films 😂
there are multiple different switch films
@finite sapphire
It's medical tape
Hows the klippe coming along
Mine just shipped from china
okok
Cant wait to get my hands on that bad boy
feels so premium from plastic
sorry if im not making any sense lol
Nah you good dawg
im on like 6 hours of sleep in 2 days
yikes
Got a math exam tmr
yeah
At noon
new to taking medication and its messing with me hard
Lmao I feel that a lot
That shipping still makes an impact on me tho
Hahahhaa
Trust, me too
48$ of shipped
Shipping
quick question how long does the keyboard usually take to ship
I got it when it was in stock like 2 days ago
Whats ur batch name
let me find that
Depends when u ordered it honestly
A few days if since ur in the us
But they got a bunch of orders to go through
their production is def getting faster tho
maybe soon they’ll actually have stock 
Lmao
how I know whats my batch number
When you go to your order
ur order number?
US48929H
Its supposed to say like NA-Milkyway
yeah thats it
Or whatever
this is ur order number
Does anyone here have the sound test before and after lubing Wooting 60
@shell geode
wo ur lucky
I ordered mine end of march
And got it in mid april
early stages of wooting
I paid for air freight too
Or uwuting
mine took a month and a half to comr
Saw a dude gon get his in july
come
Thats tuff
worth it tho
Ong
Yep
Looks legit
is that alot?
what sorbrothane did you use?
they’re usually like 9 dollars
Isolate It!: Sorbothane Acoustic & Vibration Damping Film 60 Duro (0.10 x 6 x 12in) https://a.co/d/itlZO0U

could it be fake themn?
did you only need one sheet or more than one?
You can buy the brushes and stuff
okok
u should order ur lube from keyboard websites like divinikey
Ur fine with one its like 2.5mm
should I get that sorbrothane too?
If you want too
thats optional
the wooting 60he already comes with foam
Btw @frank ether youre gonna need to put some medical tape on it
which is it?
and its pretty good
As its sticky af
First one
Yea
usually in vidoes its in a tub
I ordered my lube from wooting themselves
or small container
Put it on the palet
And pick it up with a brush
Makes you be smarter about you lube usage lol
Yea
yea
why?
looks like it
Add it
okok
With the brushes
cant just use like a plate or something
Its worth it
?
You can but the palette closes up and the lube in it can be used later
Nonono
Ah nvm
Sticky af
Or kbdfans
also gotta get keykaps
Kbdfans
Okay I think i have everything I need for the mods before my case gets here
I don't have a full typing comparison, but I do have a keycap comparison: #1097648230176673872 message
How long youve had your wooting for btw
And sorry for the ping earlier btw
Sorbothane is very sticky once you take the plastic off of it
Less than a month? 😅
I also ordered a bunch of stuff at the same time
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
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.
How does one do that? Do you have pics of the end result?
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
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?
Eh... yesno?
Because for Switches I’ll go with the less is more method

https://youtu.be/WN_-GYLTfpY?t=619
Timestamp
Always wondered how you can lubricate your lekker switches or grease your stabilizer wire. In this video, we will deep dive on different methods of lubing and some general tips and tricks. Using the Wooting 60HE.
Krytox GPL 205G0 and Molykote EM-50L lubricant:
https://region.wooting.store/products/lubrication-set-krytox-205g0-molykote-em-50l
:...
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
first one is right here https://discord.com/channels/167181566978555904/1070790236419919952
any good ways to silent the board without opening it up?
Not really. Also which board?
is the foam mod on PCB worth/ can you do it on the wooting?
is that how the stap will be attached to aluminium case 🤮
As part of the case, yes.
what is that..
The two photos above are of the underside.... those are feet.
alu case
i dont care about the looks
Ignore the shape. Calder's asking about COLOURS 😄
i care about the material 💀
the foam mod?
you put foam packing in between PCB and the switches
maybe
here's the video that explains it
Disclaimer: There have been reddit threads and other videos stating possible static shocks to your PCB. Perform this mod at your own risk to your keyboard but in saying that, my keyboards have not had any issues.
If you're looking to spice up your boring budget keyboard... Give this mod a shot as I don't think you'll regret it!
✔ Budget friend...
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.
yeah I was asking about he foam specifically, not tape mod. I've never seen that sort of idea before
sorry man thats all I have for you, maybe someone else knows more
The 60he already has a layer of foam between the switch plate and pcb. Do you want to try a different foam?
@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
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.
Ooo awesome, where can I find a link to the github, and those video and photo libraries?
ahh okay, Ive been waiting to take mine apart till I have everything I need to see what's all going on inside
i wasn't sure if there was
No problem! The Wooting team are thoughtful to include everything we would need to enjoy the 60he as is, and everything else is optional
honestly the best board out of box I've ever used, and the community is freaking amazing
no your amazing 🙂
Ay that's my keeb
So clean bro
Will you do a case swap or leave it alone,
Waiting on a FB60 to come in.
Badass brother
For some reason the blank look has always been cool to me
It’s probably like a show off reason
Thank you. I am a huge fan of OptimumTech on YouTube and I am basically just copying him 
But it makes the keyboard look like a big chocolate bar, I’m weird lol
Haha me too brother
Haha yep, I have the same layout.
Beautiful bro, we have the same mic too haha
AT2020 is badass
The only thing I’m trying to do is swap out the monitors for 1440p now
White, it contrasts better with the black anodization.
Basic NZXT mousepad lol
is ikt good
As you can see it’s dirty as fuck so I might just get the one that Ali uses, Hayate Otsu
Serves its purpose haha, roomy mousepad with alright control. I’m gonna mod my mouse make it more lightweight and change out the pads then I’ll note a difference
and also what desk
I honestly just got into the PC world after playing console my whole life, so I’m new to all of these things
my desk has loads of holes in it since it was like a hand down from my brothers
It’s an IKEA desk, I’ll give you the name now
I’m building my own standing desk with a kitchen countertop which will be wider, im really maxing out the space of this thing
That is a G pro superlight brother
oh
Debadged, which I shouldn’t have
wdym
Fucked the coating, but I’ll paint over it
Yeah
Also kinda went nuts with optimum tech stuff
the stupid fingertip mouse bro
this shit is 300$
with no side buttons
Although I did order wooting before he found out about it
also what mousepad is that
I've been using fingertip grip since forever so after seeing his video I thought that would be perfect for me
And the mouse is actually cracked
Anyone good a decent Alu Plate for the wooting?
oh
How is it? I've always been curious about it.
ok
It's hayate otsu soft
It’s like 100 bucks on Amazon
about 60 imported from Japan
which one? the mouse?
i paid 70e for mine from maxgaming
yeah they're good
can u find 1 for uk
ordered all the extra stuff for my 60he from there
@paper zephyr
but its euros
whats it calleddd
I had to add wood permanently to the bottom of the desk to hold up the Pc
Fuck hold up
saturn pro is good
should i get
idk depends what kind of pads you like
It’s similar to the sandsberg but it’s something else, I really wouldn’t get it
I’m telling you I had to drill wood into it to hold up anything
what can i get
for £80
saturn pro is good for that
no for desk
If you can find something good on OfferUp just look there
Or your countries equivalent
Dale
ill talk in a min
earbud user!!?? cringe ngl
IEM aCkShUaLlY
I have planar magnetics lol, try me
lol but they’ve been good to me, really precise foot step sound

nice keyboard
Damn bro you’re balling lol
nice monitor arm
audeze LCD-5s to be specific, I take critical listening very seriously.
Thank you lol, it’s a dual monitor arm but I cropped it out, getting a single
2nd is kbear
The IE300s look to be what I want, not too critical on listening, more on comfort
2nd and 3rd what
the headphones
LCD-5s are pretty comfortable apart from the weight
Ah gotchu
but heavy headphones arent an issue for me
The plan is to have everything portable, which means anything that has a carrying case or I can make fit in one
You’re strong
these are KZ ZS10 Pro IEMs
they are great, just kind of big
thats what a good posture gives ya.
my blackwidow tkl asmr valorant
Mfers with headphones that cost more than my whole setup 
thats why im building a standing desk, looking like the great hunchback of notre dame nowadays
oof lol
Who am I kidding I've got like 1k worth of keyboards for no reason
i dont get how keyboard modding can get so expensibe, there's only so much you can do
do u have blackwidow
You make multiple keyboards, that's how
And no
its shit
I had a blackwidow
dont get
I hated it
my friend has the 65% one with phantom keycaps
its so bad
what switches
I believe you I had one
I had a Logitech keyboard back in the day but all of mine are custom now
go to osu
1 sec
I started with the iMac G3 keyboard lmao
Oof
its actually not bad
i understand
join osu
idk
Hello, fellow desktop-under-table user!
beautiful bro
what case is that
Do you have any pictures of the silicone pour you did? I just ordered a kit and gonna attempt mold myself on the PSD60
Thank you! It's a Meshilicious: https://www.newegg.com/white-ssupd-meshlicious-mini-itx/p/2AM-030R-00005
Just the final silicone that I don’t use anymore haha. You curious about the process or the end result?
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
The end result!
custom cables time
Hiding the PC makes the whole desktop so much cleaner
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 🤷🏼♂️
that is nothing short of beautiful
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
i cant help but note some optimum tech influence
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
Oh definitely. I got the 60he because of him, I opened up an old mouse to design and 3d print a lighter exoskeleton for it (video coming soon) because I saw his video, I love his channel. I'm also rocking the AT2020!
It looks like you molded the stock case, that's why you aren't using it?
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
I have that one in my wishlist too! But $400 so whenever my streaming career takes off 🙃
bro i get all my things second hand lol
i know someone selling it for 275
and another for 200
does it really need one
oil on top of your silicone indicates you didnt use the right ratio.
Huh interesting. I used a scale and did 1:1. It’s possible I didn’t mix it well enough
i got the audient 4
NOOOO, rookie mistake, dont use a scale. alway use a tool that measures volume not mass.
Lol it says 1:1 by weight in the instructions
Yup I just followed what others recommend and added the Mini to my wishlist
amazing bro, real time audio mixing
huh, thats quite strange.
it lets you mix system audio and your own boice
so it feels more immersibe instead of blocked off
well, if thats the case, mix it more vigorously next time
yo
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
what did you use to mix it?
Measuring the ratio in a measuring cup is enough, right?
if its by volume then yes
Shit I don’t even remember now haha. I think maybe a plastic spoon tho
hmm, usually I use a fork
Gotcha, I'm hoping to set it to a one-and-done
Yeah a fork may work better to scrape the sides
just works better for mixing in general
Alright people who wants me to lube them up
I just like the compactness of it, super simple, can mute at the press of a button
YOU should want to lube them up lol
Got it for 60 bucks, basically half of the MSRP
go for it.
Lmfao
Which is what most of my setup is comprised of haha
Ah what the hell? That's a drag
I just got my lube ima be lubing my switches later when I get back from school
I don’t see the point of buying anything retail unless it comes with great customer support and warranty
Ducky ima lube you first
But I like things that are bulletproof
wait, ayo what?

That’s the thing with the audient, doesn’t do that unless you disconnect the main power. I have all of my things plugged into a power strip under my desk so my whole setup is basically controlled by one cable
Quick disconnect monitor arms
I would appreciate it if you dont.
Mines is USB as well thankfully
Don’t mind the dirty wall, reparations are being done
It can always be better
Lmfao
Bro been looking like a cable ngl
I know exactly how you feel. I'm very anal about my shit
Show me please
Ayo
Very anal???
oh, my setup is the exact opposite. all the cables you could need.
It’s a struggle, it feels weird
I'll send one of my cables later! It's trash
Anal as in particular, selective, picky, high-maintenance, etc
complete with a soldering iron, hot air rework station, and a prusa mini+
Ahh
Lmfao i will
its so messy, but it works
I've been looking for a wooden case for my wooting and was wondering if anyone here could help me figure if this case is compatible: https://ymdkey.com/products/gh60-60-wood-case-gk64-gk61-60-pok3r-dz60-yd60mq-xd64?variant=30994932793405
Package Included(GH60 60% Wood Case) GH60 60% Wood Case + Screws+Rubber Feets Details For standard GH60 kit,we prepare the wood case as the replacement when the case is damaged because some reasons. If you need use the case with other pcbs plates,please note use the right pcb plate for it.Like DZ60 XD60 Poker 1 YD60 GK
@grizzled path has a wood case, not sure if he has this exact one.
anyone have good key caps that match the yellow theme
The short answer is that it should be ok but if its not on the pinned compatibility list then it hasnt been tested
It takes some pressing down to fit with the stock foam, and the USB is very off center, but everything fits.
Thanks for the response, I'll be using my own foam anyway so I think I'll be fine.
To match the wooting yellow? They have their own keycaps in the works https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lv5HfWxK5GM

This is beautiful 😍
I can confirm that this case is compatible
hi, I wonder that will XDA profile keycaps will fit in stock wooting 60HE?
if you can take a photo of the build and tag Anders, he can get it added to the official list. Please make mention of any mounting issues or concerns if there were any.
You should be ok to use XDA profile keycaps. Others have not reported any problems as far as I am aware.
Nice keys
Lets goo my package came in 2 days early
oh, good luck with the films
Let us know how the switch films go!
Oh woop, Ducky beat me to it
thats because ive filmed my switches lmao
Pain in the butt?
polycarb films
ish,
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.
😢
trust me, its quite the experience.
is their a sticky side to the films
there*
not on mine at least
on the bottom housing yes
alright thanks
thats how I did it
I see how its deformed on the sides now
that happened on mine too, I just forced the top housing onto it and it kinda formed to the shape of the switch.
Ye
brooo, i stg, the housing wobble on that batch isnt good.
everyone else is like "oh it's not a problem"
films are great :DD
Yeaaaaa I just didn't want to deal with the process of doing them if they deform and everything
nice!
What films did you guys use?
I just used ones that I bought years ago for a different build
That's not housing wobble, that's stem wobble.
Yup!
It's not a problem. From his video he confused housing wobble with stem wobble.
i do care about the housing wobble
so long tho
yes
Watch a movie, a stream, listen to music, chat it up with your bros, or in complete silence while you dive deeper into your thoughts and how meaningless we all are
It's pinned
Whoops, ignore that last one
tuff
nah ill do that tomorrow
i got football practice at 5am
so ill do that when I get back from there
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
nah trust I did one and everytime I press w it sounds great
cant wait to have it all lube its gonna be crazy
still one less thing that wobbles and one less thing contributing to the stem wobble.
Is there a way to reduce the stem wobble?
One way I'm thinking of is taping all four interior walls of the top housing
Something soft like medical tape or smooth like bandaid
Will that affect the accuracy of the switch?
just finished doing qwerty
Since it's applied in the top housing, I don't think so. I can try it out myself, will post in an hour
Awesome. I’d love to hear it
but i feel like theyre heavier
since they dont make as much sound or is it because I overlubed?
It could be overlubing, it's easy to apply too much lube
what should I do in case 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
Just finished modding my Wooting 60HE!
Wipe off, and do it again
ahh its that simple
Woot!
and how do I know its overlubed or not
It feels mushy
Exactly, it feels mushy and wet
So I tried just medical tape and there's less wobble. Now do I recommend it? Absolutely not, as you can hear it has a sliding/scratchy sound when pressing. It sounds terrible, in my opinion.
Oof yeah. I don’t prefer that sound. Thanks for doing that for science!
No problem! Bandaid may offer a smoother result 🤔
That would make sense.
How the hell do I know what that feels like lmao
Try overlubing on purpose and you'll see, like apply a generous amount to one switch
💀
Even if you overlubed, if you use the board a lot it’ll become less bad over time
It doesnt feel that bad tho
Theres one thats not lubed enough and i can hear it compared to the other lubed ones
Did you apply any lube to the tape after adding it? I wonder if that could smooth out the scratchy sound
Yup, applied a good amount too. Maybe because the medical tape might be too porous
Ah interesting
Are there any cases like the Tofu60 that work with my 60HE? Since it looks like Tofu 2.0 doesn't seem to work anymore
See the pinned comment for the case compatibility link. There may be more not on that list but those are at least confirmed to work
@mental hemlock Need to route my cables like a data center 😭
Let me put you on to the chad mounting a power strip to the bottom of your self
Desk
In fact dm me
@shell geode
got the ghostbar, but the sound feels almost exactly the same lol.
OEM and cherry versions
Ah, that's where I had to look. Thanks!
I’m I able to swap out the springs for any old regular springs or do I need a specific spring through Wooting for the Wooting60he?
Swap em out with some 120g springs and enjoy that full range of motion
does anybody know if this keyboads keycaps fit the wooting by any chance ?
They aren't traditional mx springs, Wooting has the 50cN on their website if you're looking to go lighter
Based user.
Anyone got a link to a compatible alu plate?
or any alu plate, since I do have some stand-offs left from my kbdfans boards
Also does anyone know which foam is used in the wooting?
From what I heard, there aren't any compatible plates for the 60he, or at the least any that will fit without some modding involved.
Thanks 🙏
From Wooting's github, it's called EPDM Foam. I made this exploded view to show the layers.
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?
Includes one hot-swap PCB, everything else is sold separately. These PCBs support our 60% mounting plates. Remember to choose an ANSI PCB with an ANSI plate, and ISO PCB with an ISO plate. Developed by Wilba and Mekanisk. ANSI UNIVERSAL 2023 layout (choose backspace, split right shift, ANSI enter, 7u or 6.25u bottom r
Given that the USB port is on the wrong end. No.
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)
thats the backside in the pic
Oh yeah my bad. I thought hotswap sockets like those were top mounted.
Was watching a video to double check as you replied 😄
should be compatible

I thinking to use the original case of the wooting 60HE for workplace keyboard and use new wooting keycap if they release soon ™️
thanks for the confirmation tho Tony & Anders 
get yourself some good screw in stabilizer like staebies if you are going with a willba.tech pcb
willba? i hardly know her

i assume meka pcb is in fact willba but doesn't the screw come with the PCB? shouldn't be hard to find if not the case
It is just the PCB
wdym plateless hotswap is funny
Not true?
Never heard of anyone that needs to relube every month unless ur literally using water to lube ur switches
💀
Just messing with him

How do i know which keycaps are compatible? Have never done changed them before
Probably everything except some low profile keycaps, I dunno
Is there a name for the standard ones?
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.
lowprofiles will fit but look sorta weird as the skirt of the cap would be shortened
ud basically see even more of the switch
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
I‘d manage it
I know my luck
Just FYI, I was able to fix my issue by using a longer screw (M2x8). I've finally finished my built and burger mounted it too. 😄
na just check they are cherry mx compatible
sometimes also called cross stem, + stem or x stem
Hell yea, good to hear. Glad the longer screws worked for you
is there any info on Screw length for
Wooting Two HE ?
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
i want to switch to a black case but man they are so annoying to find right now since tofu60 is discontinued
i'd get a klippe t but fuck this is so overpriced
I feel for you I'm in the same boat
It's pricey but it's a perfect fit for the 60he and typing feels great too...
should have ordered a black tofu60 when i ordered my e-white in august 
So the cable it came with is not a great color scheme. And I can't use my aviator? Anyone know of any good cables with a lot of color options?
Cablemod classic straight or straight pro should work
Oh dope! Thank you!
Do note that Cablemod Classic cables won't do Tachyon and 100% brightness.
70% or lower.
that looks goood
The Glorious Coiled cable apparently works with tachyon and brightness
So I need the straight pro to get full access to features?
I don't want to order it and that not be true lol
I didn't say that. I said that I -know- that the standard ones don't have full support.
Because a community donated a cable.
Bought it but now waiting for my 60HE to be delivered next month xD
What’s that pc ?
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B088HKFF3V/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 What do you think about this cable?
Connect your USB Type-C phone, tablet, laptop, or other device to other USB-C devices, such as car/wall chargers, multiport adapters, etc. This High Speed USB 2. 0 compatible cable features a USB Type-C connector on each end. It can deliver up to 5 amps of charging power and delivers up to 480 Mb...
I've double checked and it works at full brightness with tachyon
lol

designing a case for
Wooting Two He Top plate and same Screw Locations but wondering how high the longest screw is as from Github STL
longest can be 15mm or minimum can be 7mm
are all the screws the same size ?
oh fuck yeah
Take your board apart systematically and measure? I would expect all screws to be the same length though.
I think they were asking if that cable would work with the tachyon feature lmao
Do y’all have any plans to offer the official cable in other colors?
Pretty sure it has to be under 2 meters though
drat if only i had one
Or 1 meter? Im not sure
We're working on some coiled cables.
Our stock cables are 6ft or just around 1.8m in total.
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.
Or even more.
Smh who needs insulation
I know, but find a way and you'll be millonaires
Hey wait! Speaker wire shows bare wire
😛
Just sell the bare copper wires 
the wooting two he has how much in frequency? 1000hz or 8000hz?
Actual 1000hz. Not those inflated or false buzzword measurements.
ok thx
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
Wooting 60 is 500Hz native and 1000Hz when you give it the juice.
Only exception to this is rythm games.
They take inputs differently than other games. Because of how reliant inputs are on timing.
Huh? Give it the juice?
I think he means Tachyon mode. 😄
So in non Tachyon mode it's only at 500HZ? Weird it's not an exposed option
Given how hardcore the software is
Yeah.
Where is that stated?
@shell geode almost done lubing my switches I just need the bottom 2 rows and im done
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
I'm not familiar with this. Can you share a link to this information? I have hard that high polling rates can cause Issues if your PC isn't fast/capable enough but nothing about the polling rate itself being an issue.
Has to do with game engines mainly
anyone know the best place to get keycaps?
What kind you looking for?
ima weeb ofc lol so i was looking for anime if possible or disney
NMBC "night mare before christmas"
Hmmm 🤔 a full set?
i would think it would be 60% since i have the 60 HE
but yeah full set would be nice
I got my set from Drop. I like them because they have a lot for immediate shipping: https://drop.com/buy/massdrop-x-tokyo-keyboard-tokyo60-keyboard-kit?defaultSelectionIds=971624
Didn’t mean to link that specific keyboard lol
Mechanical Keyboards also has a good selection: https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/
ty broski
Yup 👍 I have no idea if that case is compatible with the Wooting btw. Didn’t mean to link that but their keycap selection instead lol
lol all good im doing my look around now
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.
They had custom ones made.
You need a plate with standoffs glued or soldered to the right spots.
How long would the coiled cables be? including the coiled part, would it still be 6ft total?
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)
Yea, I'm wondering about doing that. I've been looking at brass for the material, as it appears to be the 2nd stiffest after steel. But if Wooting would release a larger Keyboard soon, like a 75 or 80% then I may have eyes on that more than on the 60 and the whole journey may sink money into the wrong keeb 🙂
Is Wooting still experimenting with other plate materials?
yes but heavy emphasis on experimenting
prototypes were available at the wootup for testing
Ah damn, a shame I could not come this time around
I'll be sure to visit next time 😄 I heard lots of people had lots of fun 
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.
Baka60 black is still available, I believe
Nice! You must be done by now
Hyte Rebolt 3, switching to the Formd T1
buy a straight cable with that cool connnection, you wont get any issues
the only reason the coiled cable doesnt work is because its too long
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
As someone with an old 80s IBM themed 60HE, I would definitely consider giving that switch plate a beige look 😄
This vibe is exactly why i picked these caps, i just wish there was a case swap possible for the twohe, I'd prefer switches hidden like in your setup
Wooting please consider making a new case we can purchase as an accessory 👀
Nah at the gym rn lol
lol nice
lube day
nice!
I finished applying poron switch pads and filming my switches :DD
now im going to go take a nap
I thought filming switches weren't recommended
do you have dimensions?
I have nothing for you except the picture
why is there no center stand off?
Because there isn't one on the 60HE?
rly?
wajooo
so I am doing this wrong?
Fridays CEST at 1:37PM.
Yes. One near spacebar, two on the left near tab, two near enter.
The metal case shown further up are the exact locations.
oof. lmao
I thought I lost a screw
I know too it can cause interference
at least on a dz60
wdym?
Prepping my PSD60 for a silicone pour, and I gotta say the Baka60 is underrated
Ah, good luck!
Remember to mix that stuff really well.
How long does it take for yours to start solidifying?
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
Thanks, will do! Not sure, waiting for the kit to deliver
Ah
where did you get silicone pour?
Usually you can get 2 part silicone at your local hardware store
And then pour it
link?
Usually you’d want to get a single use plastic cup and a popsicle stick as well.
Hmm? You don’t have any hardware stores nearby?
I am curious what kit gew got
not where to get it from
Usually this is enough for silicone pours
As well as acrylic and resin and whatnot
No need for anything fancy for the purposes of just pouring into a mold (in this case the mold is the aluminum case)
do you guys think re doing the stabilizers are worth?

well, whats wrong with the current ones?
I just received my keeb in the mail today and was gonna do just a case swap into my tofu that i currently have
It's clear cheap and I'm never gonna see it
and was wondering if its worth even redoing cause i wanted to do just a quick case swap lol
thanks, let me know how it turns out
Rattle? Re-lube. No rattle? You're good
Will do!
why not just redo it for one and see how it compares?
yeah, modding keebs is alot of trial and error, and trying one thing at a time is the best way to approach it.
yeah i figured
lmaoooo
also my board was pressing a bunch of keys randomly and opening and launching a bunch of stuff
i guess using my coiled cable really is a no go lol
stock cable is fine im assuming?
yeah i switched to it and so far i haven't noticed any issues
the stabs are easy to take out
ill prob hold off on doing the stabs til i make some time to lube the switches
yeah, the 60HE draws a bit more power than normal HID devices.
I just lubed all my switches and did a spring swap 💀
RIP back
oh boy, how did that go?
what mods have you guys done that you would recommend?
it's relaxing but hard to get a good posture
i was just thinking of doing tape mod and reusing the case foam already included and calling it a day lmao
well, what sound do you want to achieve?
Hey guys a random question, plate mounted everglide pandas v3 will fit the wooting 60HE?
Yeah i figured it'd be a tough task
tbh it doesnt sound too bad stock
prob just a case swap will do it some justice lol
yeah, the clack is really nice.
not the thocc im looking for but its not bad for a prebuilt
making the wooting into a clack build is a much easier task.
yeah
So true, I can clack but can't thock
just finished lubing it completely
it sounds amazing
it has the perfect amount creamyness/thockness
its perfect lol
just finished doing the case swap to my acrylic tofu. did like a couple layers of tape mod, sounds good. i cant wait to lube the switches... but ill save that for another day lol.
I have a low profile case and it sounds okay. The stock case is way better
Floating keyswitch?
I think so
just the generic gh60 low profile case
asides from the psd60 is there any other budget aluminum cases since tofu 60 is discont
Baka60 iirc is like $50
Yeah, that is floating keyswitch
