dark mason
#

100 is definitely enough

Huh

#

I saw a guy reading a book the other day, almost dropped my coffee

fluid ravine
#

well

#

at least i didnt typed out a whole book

narrow saffron
#

Would using switch pads and switch films on the lekker switch affect it?

fluid ravine
#

im using switch pads rn
i use to do P.E foam mod

#

no problemo

narrow saffron
#

So the switch pads that are 0.5mm woudnt affect the lekker switches

#

what about the films together with the switch pads? What thickness of the film is best for the lekker switches

narrow saffron
#

Does the material of the switch film matter?

#

for 3d printing

fluid ravine
#

i dont have any experience or knowledge about 3d printing

shipping is 30% of the price of the cable and plate

polar girder
#

my friends don't care about my keyboard

#

so i have you all

#

luv

#

I don't get the cable obsession lol

#

i was like yeah it would be cool to have an all black cable but i would never do a coiled cable and it's $45 lol

#

like for what

#

i don't get it. i'm blockhead tho

#

seems fairly priced with the cable mods one being even more expensive lol

#

but yeeaahhhh

fluid ravine

Cables for for functionality, dont wana dmg usb c and also all my boards rn don't have middle usb

I would buy if there was a white one

jovial idol

Yeah now that i think about it

#

In white would have been perfect

#

Reconsidering now

#

But i don't wanna pay and extra 30 for shipping again

untold wigeon
#

Had a black coiled one

#

More problems than anything

#

Mind you it’s completely functional, no issues with it but it was too stiff and too distracting for my liking

yeah coiled cables so silly bro

clean setup tho 🔥

Does 60he module support stepped capslock?

digital gust
#

Does anyone know if these help at all

#

Or these

crimson sky
#

help with what

#

bottom ones don't work on a 60he, top ones would only work on the new module version to begin with

quiet bay
#

Ordering those on temu? 😭

digital gust
#

Yeah aliexpress won’t ship to me

#

And Amazon has them marked way up

#

Man I wish I could use aliexpress 😔

#

Would this one be compatible or am I just gaslighting myself

crimson sky
#

why can't you use aliexpress

#

should be compatible

digital gust
#

Yeah it seems compatible but idk

#

Oh well lol

#

I’ll just assume most GH60 cases are compatible

crimson sky
#

yea some are known to have issues tho

#

why can't you buy on aliexpress lol

digital gust
#

It won’t ship to my area

#

Really weird though

crimson sky
digital gust
#

I could ship it to a family member and send it over though

digital gust
crimson sky
#

not having enough space around the usb port

#

with some SMD components contacting the case

#

and some that have a usb port too tight and offset to the wooting

digital gust
#

Uh oh that’s scary

Hello guys, I got some false input (some keys would just double detect or release even though I held them them fully pressed down) on my wooting over the last months and today I decided to disassemble it. It seems that my plate is slightly bend. Does anyone have a trick to get it straight again? (I don't wanna RMA it, because it's my daily driver and well I've dissassembled it already🤷‍♂️ )

#

Also thought about ordering the PC Plate but I don't know if that woudl fix my problem cuz the plate is pretty flexible

raven cave
#

It would be interesting to see how the Concrete Gray Alumaze60 matches up against some stock GMK colours, such as L9. It does look pretty neat.

dire delta

#

Use a rubber mallet. I assume you have steel plate right now. It should be quite durable but still be cautious

dire delta
#

Gonna try to fix the plate and if it fails I'll order the PC Plate

#

or maybe ill get an aftermarket Alu plate

shell crown
#

That steel plate should be very durable

dire delta
#

Idk how i bent mine cuz I haven't dissambled my wooting before

Maybe pressed too hard on the keeb

That's where plate can help

FR4 plates are so so to come by, I'll be creating a 5-20 batch of FR4 for EU ISO users and distribute. You can buy it from a shop that's already made them or get a custom order

Ah okay

I'm waiting on module but I've already bought the keeb

Can't wait as long sadly

dire delta
#

been using my wooting since april, gonna buy the module tho

#

well now I am not using my wooting cuz its scuffed

shell crown
#

I'm buying the module and a 2nd case from somebody here havo

crimson sky
shell crown
#

Alongside 1 extra custom case from a retailer

crimson sky
#

can help if that is a problem

dire delta
#

it is silicone

#

it will be higher pitched

shell crown
#

Removes reverb tho

crimson sky
#

you are removing resonance volume

dire delta
#

I know, but he said he wants the "thock"

crimson sky
#

if you were just replacing existing foam with this maybe

velvet egret
#

yeah i want thock so getting the spacebar fillers wont help since its silicone and will make the sound pitch higher if im reading this correct right

crimson sky
#

it will help if spacebar reverb is an issue nonetheless

#

also it is not even silicone lol

#

it is just "foam" so prob some kind of PE or PU foam

dire delta
#

I guess poron

crimson sky
#

poron = PU

Does anyone know a EU vendor for 60% Alu Plates (which fit the wooting PCB and plate mount stabilizer / L-Shift size)

ANSI plate but EU vendor due to shipping/taxes

77$ without taxes 💀 at SMKeabords

oh boi

Just get a custom cut?

Okay guys so I have ordered my 60he. Now I’ll need to ask you guys some SOLID recommendations because I don’t wanna use it stock (by stock I mean with the plastic case and the stock keycaps).

I would like to ask you : which is the CHEAPEST Aluminium case I can buy for the Wooting 60he (compatible with 60he pcb).

tofu redux duck_sip

polar girder

PSD60 maybe

Or analogous aliexpress option

Tofu redux is well priced but big hit from the shipping cost

I'm in the US somehow we get free shipping and only local tax of 8% and I haven't had any handling fees I can find

dapper kernel
round quiver
#

yea I'm just making a comparison of the costs. Personally I'd go with the PS60/PSD60 Defender cases due to the range of colors on their cases

#

I got a PSD40 in yellow and it looks vibrant

cyan adder
#

I think I will go psd60 from aliexpress. 60€, free shipping and free of taxes, seems like actually the cheapest I can found in term of quality / price

shell crown

Or order alumaze

Too expensive for me. It’s almost double of the price of the psd60

What's the good thing about changing the Switch Plate

round quiver
#

changing the plate changes the sound

topaz cloud
#

Umm....

#

I want to make my wooting sound like this video's 3rd custom keyboard's sound

#

QK65 ~~

#

Would buying a wooting 60HE switch plate help?

#

I will buy mods like

Krytox XHT-BDZ for stablizer
FL.CMMK V3 stablizer
3 tape mode
Krytox 205g0 for switch
Krytox 105 Oil for spring
PSD60
PC switch plate ANSI for wooting 60HE
Wooting stock foam
Wooting stock switch

Will these help make the toc sound?

shell crown
#

Maybe

#

You should use foam you get with plate to test

topaz cloud
#

If I buy a plate, does the foam come with it?

topaz cloud
last lintel
topaz cloud
#

Ohh..

topaz cloud
# shell crown yes

Then, do I have to replace it with foam that comes when I buy PC plate for wooting 60HE instead of wooting stock foam?

#

Or

prisma cosmos
#

good recommendations for key caps? looking for PBT

topaz cloud
#

Have to test ?

#

What is good for thock?

prisma cosmos
topaz cloud
#

Clone keycaps are bad?

prisma cosmos
#

idk i've been watching modding vids and ppl keep recommending PBT

topaz cloud
#

Its pbt but clone keycap

#

Somebody recommend me some keycaps for wooting 60he

stray tiger
topaz cloud
#

Ok...

#

Does Keycap affect sound, too?

devout torrent
#

yes

#

profile, material, thickness etc all make a difference

polar girder
#

Ty

devout torrent
#

ABS is a bit thockier I believe vs pbt

#

and thicker = thockier

green hill
# topaz cloud Ok...

Keycaps do effect sound, but for the most part it's based on the profile and material, clones will not be that different as long as they are double shot pbt

If you are looking for thock you are going to want a PC plate with foam between the PCB and plate as well as some good case foam

Keycaps that have the most thock is double shot pbt in the SA profile (this is a very high profile and it is not for everyone)

You can get other keycaps sounding thocky but you will need to play with the case foam that you are using

topaz cloud
#

So difficult..

green hill
#

It sounds complicated but gets easier the more you experiment with it lol

You got this don't sell yourself short!!

polar girder
#

Yo so what’s the word on changing direction of the switch on keyboard?

bronze grove
#

Not required except for... 3? customers globally to date due to some odd keycaps.

polar girder
#

These side legends look sooo much better with the switch swapped to south facing

#

Yeah it fits both ways

#

But doesn’t affect performance right?

#

Maybe just acoustics a wee bit?

bronze grove
#

Just a question of less LED brightness and a lot of work 😄

polar girder
#

Lol fair enough. I’m gonna be opening them up to lube them and can just throw them in that way

#

Just comparing stock to these lower profile to these side legends right now

#

Don’t feel like taking the board apart to swap the switches tho lol

#

Scared to chip the plate by pulling a switch with it screwed down

#

But throwing the keycap on backwards looks great 😆

topaz cloud
#

I want to do custom mod my wooting but..

polar girder
#

~~Yo I just realized stock space bar not 100% double shot ~~@fluid ravine

topaz cloud
#

Thats gonna be diffuicult..

polar girder
#

Idk if that affects your sound. But these other caps I got. Space bar sounds most diff

#

Oh fk nvm I lied bro

#

Stock is left. My bad. Had them mixed up. But the right one actually sounds better

#

Crazy

abstract temple
#

What are the differences between the stock Wooting keycaps and the ones on the site? Are they the same or higher quality?

abstract temple
jovial idol
#

lighter spring if u prefer that sort of thing ig

abstract temple
#

I'm referring to keycaps not switches

jovial idol
#

no

stock caps are also double shot pbt

its teh same

Hey!
Has there been any talks of Wooting making silent variants of their Lekker switches? Tried searching around and didn’t find anything.
I’m atm using cherry silents and love the sound(lessness?)

Note: I don’t own a wooting. Waiting for TKL/75% smilers
Would the case need other modding other than adding dampening foam?

If there wont be silent Lekker switches, can the normal switches be lubed without affecting the performance?
Also, any tips how to dampen the downstroke without using O-rings? I once tries them and was not a fan.

Does anybody have the full chart of keyboard material affect on sound?

#

Not the one in modding faq

I saw like

A bigger one

Uhhh

Sort of the like plate effect on sound chart in faq

#

But i saw a bigger one

#

gimme a sec

#

I'm writing up a research project at school on my keyboards and i want a chart to reference lol

fluid ravine
#

looking through thr image tab

#

but cant find it

jovial idol
#

All good

#

Ty Anyways

stray tiger
#

The one he is referring to is one based on subjective information from the author and not based on actual hardness

jovial idol
#

Lmao ok nvm then

#

Wait I'll just do my own chart i have a switch tester

stray tiger
#

You wouldnt want that one in a research paper anyway but if you use the one from the FAQ and study up on Young’s modulus, (tensile stress over tensile strain) then you can submit a solid paper

is there anything special about the wooting lubes or does it work all the same?

Is it recommended to switch your pc plate when you use an aluminum case or is the stock one good

#

damn yeah LED is on the top of the switch so side printed shine through doesn't work well lol

#

RIP me and my side prints lol

digital gust
#

Only thing is it would change the sound

#

Could improve or hurt your sound depending on the keycap type

polar girder
#

LED is at the top. just watched a calder video said light wont come through. i guess lemme check

digital gust
#

Yup

polar girder
#

yeah bro. not worth

#

dull light either way

#

LED is on top doesn't really get across

#

The M is south facing switch

#

Heart breaking lol

#

Look at that D. Look at how good it COULD look

digital gust
#

So much potential 😔

#

I have an idea

#

Just learn to use your keyboard upside down

polar girder
#

It’s not thaaaat bad I guess lol

#

whoops lol

#

I can see it when I glance under my monitor, which is all i really wanted anyway

#

now just need to wait for module to actually swap the switches and everything else lol

i actually like it

I dont like sidecaps

they are backlit but wootings led are north facing so its not compatible

Only diff of new module pcb will be stabs? @glossy pagoda

bronze grove
#

Yes.

#

New PCB design to accommodate screw in stabs, and a PC switch plate with the mounting holes to match.

shell crown
#

That's it?

#

No new design, nothing more?

bronze grove
#

It is a barebones modding enthusiast product. Not a redesign of the 60HE

Okay

I thought there might be something more

With the module the holes will already be pre drilled right?

Just keep it stock until module drops then build new

I'll get enough money to buy module by then

ill be having an empty case till december lol

LOL

shell crown
#

I will modify this one and just move stuff over to module

fresh portal
#

Hey guys what can I do in the meantime until an ISO PolyCarb plate is released? I am worried of high pitched noise when I start using the alumaze60 case

bronze grove
shell crown
#

Yeah, I'm now looking to make 10 FR4 custom plates and sell them to few guys for shipping + prod costs

#

Shouldn't be too high

versed pivot
#

From the faq

bronze grove
#

Yes. Preventing backwards compatibility being the keyword.

#

We'll need to make a plate just for ISO, without screw in mounts.

So a product separate from the module's ISO PC plate

#

When/If that happens is anyone's guess.

versed pivot
#

I understood it as "you need to change stuff to fix the existing backwards incompatibilities the iso-pc-module-plate has that prevent it from being used with the"old" 60he boards".

bronze grove
#

Well that'd be the fix. Removing the screw in stab mounts.

#

We can't time travel and retrofit every ISO PCB made so far.

#

There just isn't room on the existing ISO PCB to allow for both types at the same timez without redesigning the PCB (which wouldn't help current customers)

fair mountain
#

Can I choose a stabilizer that is not lubricated on 60he module?

bronze grove
#

Full freedom since you have to bring your own.

shell crown
#

also uh, do you need a big change for the iso module to fit screw ins?

bronze grove
#

The module comes with the redesigned PCB. It has screw in support out of box.

#

It's just that the PC plate that the Module ISO uses, won't work on a regular 60HE. One of the standoffs near the enter key has nowhere to screw into.

shell crown
#

Can I somehow modify it?

#

Any possible way

#

Get another extra hole somehwee

#

Buy an extra standoff and screw it there

stray tiger
#

It could be modified and used without that standoff is what they said on todays livestream but they don't guarantee 100% no issues as there could be like .01% people who do it and have a problem

shell crown
#

Ah okay

#

So that standoff is just to be 100% sure and pass the test

#

tests

bronze grove
#

The standoff needs to screw in. Otherwise the plate flexes and causes sensor issues.

#

That's what Kevin told me specifically when we discussed this a while ago

shell crown
#

Okay

polar girder
bronze grove
#

Oh? Things may have changed then. Let me double check that for you.

# polar girder That’s what I keep hearing but they mentioned it comes with stabs today on the s...

I think I answered your question during the stream but yes it comes with everything listed in the modding FAQ

What's included with the 60HE Module? - 60HE Module will include the PCB, PC plate, 2 plate dampening materials (silicone pad and poron foam so you can experiment with both), screw-in stabilizers, small silicone sticker sheet (to stick on the backside of the PCB at the screw holes), and USB A to C cable.

bronze grove
#

Yeah turns out I had a brainfart. Could have sworn it came stab-less. But that appears to be wrong 😄

planning a full remod around the module, grown tired of the blade60 case. don't like the ergonomics

ashen hamlet
#

Wooting, i like yall but 139.99€ for the white aluminum case is a bit expensive

thorny glade
#

It is, but at the same time it is def harder to make an allu case with the strap hole and maze pattern on the inside 😦

#

Btw is there any news on the new 60HE pcb with screw-in-stabilisers support?

stray tiger
thorny glade
#

icic, thanks a lot man

devout torrent
#

Will the module pcb be available by itself for those who already bought the pc plate?

dapper kernel
#

why buy the pc plate now if u dont have an exisitng board to use it on?

devout torrent
#

I have a board so I bought the pc plate

#

but I want the module for screw in stab support in the future

polar girder
#

module is not just the PCB

devout torrent
#

correct, which is why I am wondering if I can buy just the pcb in the future

quiet sentinel
#

tofu still exists

dapper kernel
devout torrent
#

ya most likey

quiet sentinel
#

so whats product 4

devout torrent
#

I dont mind having to buy whole module, but old one wouldnt be any use to me so would be give away

quiet sentinel
#

if its just the pcb whys that such a big deal

dapper kernel
devout torrent
#

ty

#

guess that works out mostly, then I just need another set of switches and I can have 2 boards

dumb question time but the pc plate works with the existing 60HE with the plate mount stabs right?

ashen hamlet
quiet sentinel
#

I have a enigma vertigo but i went for the tofu redux for the wooting, ngl the switches feel like shit on the wooting so I’m hoping down the line they get updated to remove the wobble etc because its all very well being hella fast but when it doesnt feel stable its annoying af and could be way more accurate, that said, wooting is still the best for gaming > my £600 custom because it still is faster

#

65% with improved switches would be end game

Good evening guys, did somebody try the Pe Foam on the wooting ?
I already read the modding faq but there is no mention about that.
I love the '' poppy'' sound from the mod but before i do it, wanted to be sure it doesn' t affect the sensors.
