yeh its 5 screws
whats the purpose for it? does it make the keyboard sound better?
if you like the looks, sound profile changes and if you like a different sound is up to you
I don't have a clue on how to keyboard mod but I am interested once my keyboard gets here
5 screws out take the unit out, plop it in the new case screw the screws
The 60HE Module is compatible with any universal 60% case that followed the GH60 standards. This is how to safely swap it out for a 3rd party case.

i appreciate it!
lubing your switches makes the most difference imo, it's pretty easy as well but you need the tools and lube, and time
i can make the time I'll just have to buy the kit for it
Ye pretty much
wooting does offer a lubing kit
yeah i saw that didnt buy it because I'm a pleb
just dont want to break anything honestly
But be sure you will buy the kit not just the lube
yeah i was going to buy the whole kit
you just need 3-4 hours , coffee and a movie 
or vodka
yes they do, some people like to lubricate more
they are prelubed but factory lubing doesn't cut it for most
also I hear they upped the lube amount on the switches already so I can't really compare, but it was a fairly big difference sound-wise when I lubed mine
I got the extra lubed switches and I still noticed a difference when I hand lubed them
makes the switches feel a lil smoother as well
do you guys think the foam in the case is good enough or should i also replace that?
it's great
Some people say the switches dont sound good out of the box so yu should def try lubing. Not my opinion. Check youtube
I'm using the stock foam with a non-stock case, it's fine
and it's all preference so you try and decide
What case u use?
this
sounds good guys thanks!
tofu walnut case
Nice. I was thinking of getting the redux.
ordered the alumaze as well, we'll see how it is when I get my hands on it
my redux is out for delivery can this shit just hurry up an arrive
I'm gonna wait until i get the keyboard and try it out before i try modding it
yeah that's a good option, no need to rush
Redux vs Alumaze. What u think?
i personally dont like the hole for the rist strap so thats why i opted for the redux
its also a bit cheaper
idk I already have a tofu so the redux didn't really interest me, it would've cost the same as the alumaze anyway, but I wanna support the guys at wooting
Bruh. In my country the alumaze costs 50 bucks more
So im opting for the redux i guess
i paid 80 pounds for the redux including shipping or something like that
I feel like the redux is a bit too boxy
Alumaze costs 150 in my country sp its a no no for me
that's why I got the alumaze
No shipping cost
i do know what you mean
i prefer the thinner bezzles
Idk i like it being boxy**
i do prefer the slightly lower typing angle on the alumaze
I've posted this before but here's mine
NICE
yeh i like that #
big enter ftw
clean af what are those keycaps
that looks great
thanks 
the only reason I didn't get the take control keycaps was that I like to flip the spacebar, and that would completely ruin the pattern 
I love the color scheme
🐝
For the profile?
ok
Idk. Never thought abt it
It feels like an out of pocket idea
But maybe it has some good sides
Yall like the gmk black on white? Im thinking of getting them
if you like them get them
I prefer wob
Looking for peoples opinions
i prefer pastel colours
but it looks clean #
this is black on white no ?
Yeah
you can get bow so much cheaper
I prefer wob though
That what i said
oh lol
What’s the purpose of this exactly?
Ah okay
detachable if you need that
Had me second guessing if the keyboard I ordered came with a cable or not lmao!
yeh you can get after market for cheaper but you might have issues with 100% rgb and taceyon mode
Detachable as is wireless?
Aesthetics mostly. I think its the first cable that is coiled and supports 100% and tachyon
Oh okay sounds good thanks
Dont get any aftermarket if you are planning on sum serious gaming
And 100% brightnes ofc
i htink ill have to get a white coiled cable
For a white kbd?
nah it just includes two cables with a quick switch thingy, so you can basically have the coiled one plugged in your main pc and the other shorter one on your work laptop for example, and then there's no need to unplug the cable from the keyboard itself so you can't accidentally rip the usb port off from the kb 
this screw… it wore down my screwdriver and it still hasn’t moved, what kind of stuff have they done to this
oofff
did you use a torx driver in a hex bolt 
Yeh I got a white redux coming with white keycaps with pink and blue accents
psd60 or tofu60, which has better quality and sound?
whats a double shot pbt and normal pbts difference
difficult to tell without side by side comparison
unlike printing, this keycap type is produced when two layers of plastic are molded into each other. no printing necessary. the end result is a key legend which will never fade or chip off
Time to go baby
Anyone that built there’s did you put a gold standoff for the space bar screw?
What krycaps and accents?
Oh man you also already have yours 😭😭😭
Bruh this spacebar screw doesnt wanna come out
Is that the white one ?
Thanks
But I’m at war with one screw
I got 4 out but for some reason the last one is giving me problems
Hopefully not too much longer
You switching all standoffs?
Ahh I see damn GL
Yeh I don’t really understand cause all 4 other screws were fine to come out
What keycaps and accents u use?
Im pretty sure he did
Yeh I will show you in a bit when it’s done
This it with the case installed
Cute
yeh im happy sounds good with the silicon will try it with the wooting case foam as well now
Usually slicon feets made sound hollow which like in tofu60 v1 feets. Redux feets way better imo
OHH Nice. Name of them?
Looking good
Did anyone try putting double sided tape of some sorts on the keyboard/hand wrist? 😛
something like that, but smaller
Thanks
More pics plz 🙏
Has anyone’s anodized gray redux been shipped yet?
Nope
Hello dear friends, does anyone have suggestions for a 100% keyboard kit or 100% PCB + Case + metal plate?
not an official size thats why for cases u only find 60 or 65%
wooting two he is just as good as 60 he with no case metal plate swap
OOOO are the tofu cases shipping?
some colours are
little difference?
Likely pretty close to identical as the material, size and weight are similar
TOFU 
did you use the silicone sheet or did you use the wooting foam?
I'm using the silicone sheet that came with the tofu
I would like to test the sound difference but the bottom screw took me hours to screw in so I kinda don't want to take that out now
Can you elaborate on that? Which screw is it and why did it take so long?
This one right here
The screw just wouldn't line up with the hole that I had to loosen up all the screws and slowly shift the board around to get it in
then shift the board back to line up with the port. I'm probably using these terminology wrong but I hope this makes sense
im jelous i want mine
I lov the boxing
I'm uncontrollably happy with this it's crazy 
It makes sense thanks!
I hope mine ships this week
100% worth the wait
did you screw in the gold standoff
Oh...
i tried to use the foam and even took off the top layer but i couldent get it to fit
so that's what they're for 
hahahah oh well bro
shit happens
Wait, if you didnt screw in the standoff what screw did you use to screw into the case there?
I used the screws from wooting case
the screw wont be in anythin gthen
That screw isnt long enough to screw in. I dont think its screwed in to anything
yeh agreed
Time to take them out before I ruin the board 
yeh i would
i used a sscrewdriver to screw the standoff in place its a lil fiddly but nothing compared to what you would have been doing earlier i imagine
Correction, it might be screwed into that hole but its not holding the PCB down at all. The only way it would have screwed into that hole is by screwing it all the way through the PCB hole and the screw head coming out the other side
some cool keycaps tho i like them very unique
yeh screw that gold thing in the hole
It is a little smaller 
Case > Gold screw > 60he PCB > wooting screw.
If the stock wooting screw is indeed screwed into the standoff hole w/o the standoff being installed, he pushed the screw head down through the PCB, so its not really securing anything at this point
I think I got it this time
looks so nice
It screws it PRRFECTLY

Thanks everyone for helping me! I'm so glad to be here
The board now sounds different (in a good way)
anyone in NA got their redux already?
Yup me! Got it yesterday
when did you order
Im EU and it isnt shipped yet
The day when it became available, I think July 6 (was on waitlist as well in July 3). I paid for express shipping as well
From where are they shipping the Tofu Redux? USA?
My emails says from Shanghai to Canada through DHL
Thanks, i Really hope mine ships soon :/ WANT IT SO BAD
Good to hear
ohh they changing it to shipping on their website
instead of in production
They also added an update post on their insta
I think certain colors are in-stock for shipping. I glanced at the insta post and it was like orange and some other less popular colors
Yeah i did see that
i recieved my black redux today too
My pink redux tofu case is shipped but my acrylic with brass weight hasn’t yet and I ordered the acrylic one like a good week or so before the pink one 😂🪄
✨Logistics✨
has anyone in US gotten their redux yet? if so, what color
Scroll up two messages
o
black
guess im just unlucky then
what color u bought??
if you were to buy the new wooting aluminum case is the process of putting it old pcb and stuff hard or ez
someone explain the process to me
Screw it out, screw it back in
does anyboy reccomend the wooting case
or are there any builds with it early compared to other cases
bet
anodized black
i believe i ordered it on release or the day after release
awesome brother
its made out of polycarbonate
the original is made out of steel
well, it'll make a difference. the "enemy" is the lekker switches themselves
you need a proper lube job on them
i feel like i'll have to relube my l45s man
i can hear the scratch and there's some clack now since ive gotten em
damn thats clean
Gonna put all blank key caps
@wooden token I know you understand.
Yes
Literally
How do you like it 😭
And what keycaps
I don’t know how to touch type so I wanted blanks cause it looks insane and plus it’ll help me learn lol
I gotta lube switches too and maybe get some o rings and tape but that’ll take too much time for me rn
It will help you drastically lol
I basically forced myself to learn
when I got my first keyboard
How long did it take
Oh that’s fire I was thinking about white too but my setup isn’t built for it
a couple of weeks
i used a website called ratatype.com
Cool I’ll look into it for sure
Did you lube switches or like do tape and o rings or whatever
This my first custom so idk what I should do
27GP950-B? Elgato LP boom arm? Superlight/Wooting combo? dual monitors? AT-2020? bros in too deep watching Optimum Tech lol
coiled cable on top of that lol
Lmao
It’s a gn950 the older one
Regular gpw
Finalmouse ulx coming soon tho
And not an at-2020
Mlx 990
Much better 🙂
Optimum tech does have great taste though lol
And he had a vid about the pulsar pad and I copped it and it’s fantastic
Love it
I’m thinking about iems too but idk if I can let go of my dt 1990s
Worth trying? Idk I don’t think I would like them because I can’t hear surroundings irl
About owning one?
Better have a microfiber cloth on hand and some Windex
Cause man that thing is a magnet for all particles in existence
There's no such thing as getting a better copy either
I have 3 and they're all like that
As long as the pad and your feet are clean then it's one of the nicest gliding experiences you'll feel
I got the super glide pad
I love it
Dust isn’t that annoying imo I just give it a swipe when I start playing and maybe once in between
why did you take that pic on nokia 7650
I see
I didn’t really care about coating only went for the pulsar pad because of the rubber bottom and the minimal look
Supposedly the Pulsar is faster
Also you have the benefit of a superior base
Looking to make a custom rubber base for my pads
Because they're the limited edition ones
I actually thought the sky pad was faster 😭
SS from a vid
Nah slower according to people that review the two
😳
Weird because I honestly expected it to be wayyyy faster
First glass pad tho so I didn’t have a frame of reference
I'd say it's not as fast as most people would think
At least for a hard pad
Skypad describes the 3.0 as a fast/control pad
Some people prefer the feel of the 2.0's coating
I went from a qck to a hien for 4 weeks and then this
Can't remember why exactly
Yeah I’ve heard a lot about this
Yeah same for me
I’m new to the whole mouse and mousepad scene but loving it so far
Playing on glass is absolutely insane
I got it last week and already feel comfortable with it
Yeah glass is lovely
Does very much feel like it directs you into an "effortless" style of aim, at least for high sens, which i like
My one problem with glass is how it's affected by humidity
And arm sleeves feel weird
modded the wooting with limited modding parts at school camp
literally had to run around stealing bandaids from the teachers first aid kit
👀

so what you gonna do if someone needs bandaids now
they die

Agreed, thankfully it doesn't seem like too much of a problem in my case though
I want orange modding. Does anyone know anything?
todu redux
is there a case witch fits the Two HE or the Lekker edition?
No.
not without a lot of modification at least
Which color and did you order also the brass weight?
aka, if you don't know what you are doing, no
i can handle a dremel 😄
the WASD aluminum case might fit
if you modify the plate to mount the PCB to it
and dremel out 2 internal standoffs in the case
you'd loose the 4 keys in the top right tho
otherwise aftermarket fullsize cases are not really a thing
only a handful of boards that ever ran
and those are very expensive
ano black with brass weight
Country? I ordered mine on release day and still waiting for shipment to germany
nope just regular gateron white
been using it for a few weeks now works well
US
thanks.
just be aware you need a WASD V2 or V3 fullsize keyboard for that
and the USB-C daughterboard
a broken one would do
so you can harvest the plate
hall effect is better imo
Theres no hall effect macropad
Anyone know if there is a small set of media keys that would fit on the two he? 😛
keycaps just got delivered for my black alumaze build 🫣
pls share what u think of pbtfans
ive only used nicepbt and epbt as alternatives to gmk
considered using pbtfans but never bit yet
I’m going to throw them on my current build and I can throw a sound test
at work atm so it may be a bit
Thats going to look 🔥
October can’t come fast enough lol
That and close up quality
There are some inconsistencies on my nicepbt noels and wanted to see if pbtfans has similar issues
Otherwise pbtfans ronin looks good
I have 3 or 4 sets of pbtfans caps and they are pretty solid quality
someone recommend me sub 100$ nice keycaps with black colorway or accents please
good quality
these seem extremely solid to me from just handling them for a couple minutes
name?
PBTFANS Golden Cyrillic
theyre like 100+$ for normal keycaps
I don’t have any sub $100 keycaps unfortunately - these were $105 w/ shipping
and i dont get why thats kinda normalised
PBTfans BOG Specs Material: PBT Profile: Cherry profile Production Method: Doubleshot Manufacturer: PBTfans Friendly Reminds: Only keycaps included, no keyboard Compatibility: Cherry MX switches and MX-style clones Packaging: ABS keycaps tray with designed tray cover Available in other Official Store Aliexpress store:
Try novelkeys or cannonkeys
base kit is 75?
bog is a classic - I almost went with those but the gold sub legends on the set I just got had my eye
Yeah bog is neat but I already have some, and getting multiple sets is not a rabbithole I want to enter
maybe I'll buy a sp set one day
gmk clone
No, its because he is looking at pricing for the Macro expansion and not the full kit
They do have some GMK sets for $75 though https://novelkeys.com/products/gmk-bento-r2?variant=35449790103719
is gmk a shape or material
Its a company/brand
ohhh that makes sense
typical
you see a set with a nice price
then its for some accents or 40s or sth and the base is sold out
yes
is dye sub bad how long would it last
I think they have a few GMK sets on sale for under $100
gmk shipping is usually v long in waiting time, and overpriced for using legitimate patented cherry profile molds
dye sub is fine
its laser etched thats bad
and yeah gmks are ABS
reverse dyesub can have issues too iirc?
GMK group buys yes. The ones he is looking at are in-stock extras
how do u know a keycap set is stable or wobbly
oh that is still fine
they are so expensive and have such a long leadup time because so many people want to buy them 

gmk is not laser etched
You dont know until you get them but if you stick with better brands/companies you reduce the risk of a crap product.
i see
I have a boG set I would ship someone USA for cheap
They’re nice I just needed side print
they asked about dyesub
XDA v2 profile.
im talking about general production not gmk
well yea dyesub can have problems
specifically warp and uneven as well as washed out printing
Domikey is one brand I'd consider and flies under the radar in the keyboard scene. Very good kitting, quality and price imo: https://domikey.com/products/miami-nights-cherry-profile
Their kitting is quite bad actually
You need 4 kits to even get a regular tkl custom covered
Which is like the most common layout for custom keyboards
They offer All in One which covers most
And also is quite expensive
In comparison to GMK, it's reasonably priced
It is more than gmk though
Sure bigger kit, but who needs 2 alpha kits for one set
- the spacebars are annoying since they have a dent in the front
Keykobo is good imo
The above kit is 129, Panels an example is 140. So probably not much cheaper
Most GMK listed here floats around the 120-130 mark, and that's before adding other kits: https://novelkeys.com/collections/keycaps
[IC] KKB Miami Nights
Yea so domikey is higher end
With questionable kitting
Like no f13
Keykobo is at sub 100 usd
With good quality
Define questionable kitting, they cover most things unless F13 is a deal breaker
Does anyone know if the LM60 (https://aliexpi.com/TMpj) can be used as a replacement case for Wooting?
If this is not available, I plan to use PSD60.
if its gh60 or dz60 compatbile itll most likely work
just be carefully that you dont crush components when putting it in
The included plate would have to be compatible with Wooting's PCB. It looks like the plate slots into the case suspending the plate/pcb. So probably won't be compatible, I suspect
maybe if you get a plate file and make a custom plate
Its a profile (think cherry or oem) but not a popular one and didnt go over well.
Hi everyone, I'm very new to keyboards and dont know much. I have the wooting keyboard and was wondering if I will be able to change the case to this one I found on alixpress: https://es.aliexpress.com/item/1005003329788603.htmlI don't know if the case is compatible with the wooting keyboard
I just really want a kinda clear/transparent case and wrist rest (still haven't found a wrist rest)
Submit or request a review of a case by adding a comment or posting on discord
this are the list of case that is compatible with wooting
you can check them out here
I've seen that list, but this case is not on it
but its a very simple cheap case from alixpress
i have a feeling that it has too many screws but im not sure at all, since i dont know anything about it
better to follow the list as all the cases there are tried and tested
you can wait and see if anyone can help you with the case that you posted
yes, but i want a transparent one and i havent found any others than the one i sent 😦
but do you know if this one has too many screws?
like are they placed correctly
for the wooting
i assume it should be easy to see if u know something about it :3
there is a translucent tofu might not be exactly what you want but you can take a look
Specs Case: Anodized Aluminum, E-coating Aluminum or Acrylic Weight bar: Brass, surface sandblasted process Structure: Tray-mount Compatible with most 60% PCB, including DZ60 rev3.0/DZ60 RGB-ANSI/DZ60RGB V2/GH60/Wooting 60HE PCB, etc. As seen in our video in the photo gallery! Weight: approximately 0.8 kg (non-brass we
i cant see the link you sent
no one can tell if it can fit the wooting pcb just by looking at it and counting the screws
hehe
im about to order the tofu case
have no idea if i should add the brass bar
is it gonna make it better? :>
that is on your personal preference
what do u personally prefer
it may or may not make it sound different
and if you like something heavy you should definitely go for the brassweight
i see
my preference is more weight the better
becuase it adds a weight to it
okay thank you
oh one last question
do you know a good wrist rest that will match the acrylic tofu case?
wooting is currently selling wrist rest
you can take a look some from kbdfans they have a few 60% wrist rest there
i am currently not using any
this is again a personal preference
you can try looking from here
kinda expensive ngl
I have black but the wrist rest and tofu are perfect
I have two layers of foam in it now. The stock wooting one on the bottom and the one that came with the case on top of that
You can fit both?? Does it make a difference in your opinion?
Ye you can fit both. Gotta press down a lil on the PCB and then screw down. Just check if the USB port aligns 🙂
Anyone know if there are any black Japanese key cap sets. All the ones from Amazon are navy blue for some reason
It does make a difference IMO. All be it a little. But it sounds kinda good now 🙂
Im Jelly, my Silver Tofu hasnt been shipped yet
Ah damn. The wait is almost over, right?
@left zealot did you notice a difference in feel when you swapped?
Well the angle of the overall keyboard is MUCH better now
that's for sure
So it feels even better now
oh ok thanks
You won't be dissapointed IMO 🙂
I hope so Since Everyone is getting theirs im hoping this week itl get shipped
I'm NOT using a wrist rest btw. Just only the keyboard and that feels perfect to me
I don't really like using wrist rests
@pure herald Those do be lookin good tho!
Oh those are nice. I prefer if there is a full set + black key caps with all white text
yeah they're great
As with all custom keyboard stuff the patience can be a thing lmao
This is redux??
A kit usually denotes the PCB + stabs
denotes?
what does it mean heheh
i just wanna make sure if im buying the redux case and not the kit, that im not gonna regret not buying the kit
Do not buy the kit
That’s the kit
The case is just the case
You have Wooting 60HE?
Sure. No one's telling you not to ask 🙂
Yes. Only case
You even use the screws from the 60he
Kit is to build full new keyboard
alright
thxxxx
so helpful!! i aprecciate it
is there any wrist rest u think would look good with the acrylic tofu60 :>
i think both the wooting rests look good with the tofu60, but if you want a see trough case you might want to get an acrylic or other see trough material rest to match
how much was the shipping
Depends where you live
Shipping is 22 Dollars
is there german sites that have it i wonder
22.26 dollars tax ( Import tax)
I do live in The Netherlands but im pretty sure itl be the same for Germany
i found a german site
65 euro after tax and shipping
but black variant is sold out
😮 thats insane
i need them to come into stock (black variant)
can you link the site
https://keygem.com/products/tofu60-redux-case?_pos=1&_psq=tofu60&_ss=e&_v=1.0&variant=44518533595404
TOFU60 Redux Case Estimated Shipping: Q4 This is only the Case without Plate, Weight and PCB. You can add these to the order here: Tofu Redux Addons Specifications: Case: Anodized Aluminum, E-coating Aluminum or Acrylic Weight bar: Brass, surface sandblasted process Structure: Tray-mount Compatible with most 60% PCB
only 3 colors r pre order able
Thanks.. Damn, I do know that KBDfans is shipping groupbuys now
Crazy price difference from what i paid
only pink orange and acrylic, so if you want those when from EU, seems like a good shout
yea but they prolly update these once in a while
so u could possibly buy black vers
i pre orderd silver from kbdfans
how much
mine personally went for around 130 with the brass weight and shipping
from KBDfans site
with the brass weight u get to 100 with shipping and taxes here
itll prolly take forever to get into stock
Oh right totally forgot i also orderd the brass weight. then it almost matches price
well how much did u pay
thats from KBDFans to Netherlands
my smooth brain never even looked for other sites selling the Redux, i just assumed it was a KBDfans only product, but oh well. whats done is done
most sites tax high too
i assume this site gets discount for buying a lot at once so they still profit
yeah, 22 shipping and 22 tax
Check aliexpress
for redux
thats on Ali
can u send link
before shipping
no
almost 70
Lol
before shipping
but thats dollars so also gotta see what Dollars to euro is and then compare it to an Euro priced store
128 USD is 117 Euro
130usd vs 100 eur (109 usd)
wait, am i converting wrong 🤔
i might get my wooting tommorow, oooooh. its my birtday in a few days too, so thats a nice present
idk when the redux gets here tho, sicne i havent gotten any shipping info yet, but people have gotten theirs already
thanks
Im in the same boat, waiting on shipping
awesome
My Tofu Redux and Keycaps should be getting shipped soon
my kb will be here a week before holidays so ill have much fun with it when it is hrere
idk how kbdfans is with announcing their shipping, i know with alixpress sometimes i get an item and only then get mailed that it got send out pretty much
No clue either, first time ordering from them
yep, same
altough customer support has been very good when i needed something from them, so thats good
That's true.
Just gonna have to wait and see. Hopefully both my things ship this week so ill hopefully get them next week
i have the keycaps and other things i need for the build, just the case and the wooting itself need to come for me
ooh, maybe not quite tommorow, but who knows, now it might come exactly on my birtday
that tax and shipping combined is less then both of those are alone from kbdfans
why dont u guys use the promocode ILOVEKBD for a 2euro discount
I did lmao
does anyone know if its possible to gasket mount the wooting? i broke the o rings that thread the screws on my tofu60 and thought maybe i could gasket mount it but i don't know if it would have any effect on the sensors or not or if theres any other alternative mounting method i could use
that case and the plate are not made for gasket mounting
soo

ive seen countless videos on gasket mounting the tofu60 so i kinda thought it would work here but yeah alright that makes sense
idrk what else to do at this point
the keyboard comes with o rings installed and the screws just sit in there but i broke them all
or maybe im just stupid and they can thread underneath that
idk
euhm....
i'll take some pictures later i might just be dumb
yeah, im not support either, and i might be understanding what you mean wrong.
but normally you just screw the screws straight into the standoffs. and people add o-rings to isolate the sound more by preventing direct metal on metal contact
Do you mean gummy o-ring mounting?
the o rings came pre installed on the standoffs and from my memory it didnt seem to look like there were any threading on the standoffs but that could be because the o ring goes all the way down but yeah idk i might just have foggy memory im at school rn
yeah the friction mount thing
big o ring
Yes you can do that. Just need the proper size o-ring.
alr cool, does it effect the sensors at all or would it be fine just like that
Works fine, has no effect on the sensors as the plate is still screwed into the pcb
awesome, thanks
Too lazy to rewrite the whole thing
To fryslan!
Wooting isn’t even soldered…
Just pull out the switches, open then and lube the springs

Bro failed to properly lube switches
You're supposed to lube the entire thing not just the walls of the upper housing
no duh you'll have spring ping you still didn't lube the spring itself
Bro what-
Cmon man I just got out of school and this is the first thing I see on discord
Please tell me you're not talking about the wooting
Smoother, sound better, stop spring ping (if there's any ping)
is that a problem with the wootings switches?
It's not a problem, it's just an option you can do
They still feel great out of the box
alr
does the tofu 2.0 case work with the wooting pcb? and if so whats the difference between it and the redux case?
Tofu 2.0 isn't even compatible with the wooting pcb
The usb cutout is in the middle instead of the left
so redux case is the way to go for wooting
pcb port at the middle and the mounting is not compatible
to answer your question, this is not a wooting. My current setup in it is a PC plate, Oil Kings, blank keycaps, tape mod, foam, and a burger mount
im planning another build with the wooting module in a gray tofu
gray keycaps
thinking about this accent cap for my black alumaze build
there was an anodized gold skeleton key that seemed cool too
https://www.iterkeebs.com/products/tint60-custom-mechanical-keyboard-kit
Found this pretty affordable aluminum case, similar screw positions as the alumaze60, cant say for sure abt its compatibility as its not released yet
Just buy keycult gold from rama and wait 6 years for it lol
It would work but you can get the Mojo60 today and it's basically the same case.
Hello guys ! I have a question because I am new to keyboard customization, does Internal Brass of tofu 2.0 redux case change the final sound once the pcb wooting is put in or can I buy the case without it
Thanks in advance
the case might sound a bit less hollow without** the weight
unless you find somethin to fill the whole in the case i think its 25 dollars so you could buy it and see what you personaly think
Its an unknown as I dont own that specific case but I do own a number of cases with brass bottoms/inserts and typically the brass weight is just that "a weight". Its purpose is to make the case heavier and not to change the sound. In fact once you add dampening materials (foam, silicone, fiberfill) the brass wont likely have any impact at all on the sound.
I also have a solid brass case and that does sound different than an aluminum case but it also weighs 3-4x as much
okayy ty for your answers guys !
do any of u know a transparent or pink cable that is compatible with the wooting keyboard?
is it possible to have a link to you'r case ?
Check the https://discord.com/channels/167181566978555904/1103459740186595399 but the short answer is that almost any well made USB 2.0 cable under 6' will work.
Hey Tirade, since they sent you an alumaze of your own, did they also send a pc plate with it?
I was wondering if you did I'd like to see a sound test
Its a special edition Klippe case that was limited to 20 units and was sold years ago. No link to it
I dont have an alumaze yet, those pictures were shared with me from a wooting staff member. I DO have one on order though and will gladly post some sound tests when I get it.
ah damn I guess I misread it
k np thanks anyway
hopefully they can fix the issue with iso compatibality on the pc plate soon
gonna be very jelous of everyone with their pc plate
it look so nice man
flipping hell
only thing im annoyed about the redux is that its a bit annoying to move when i play with the 45 degree angle for fps
Then you would hate trying to move this thing haha
but i cant imagine it with a 4kg keyboard
wow
how much did it set you back if you dont mind me asking?
Annoying to move cuz it’s heavy or what?
I got it years ago and kept it as a collectors item. I dont recall what I paid but Ive seen 1 or 2 go for sale on mechmarket in the last 3yrs and I think they went for around $500 shipped. Last one was over a year ago I think, almost never see them for sale.
Yes
yeh its heavy and a bit clunky compared to the stock wooting
damn thats a sick collectors piece
But it every slightly moves cuz it’s on XXL pad
yeh i always move mine finding comfortable postions depending on how im sitting
YeH I’m always moving mine around. Hmm
yeh its a good price
i paid 85 quid including the brass and shipping which im happy wtih
what's in the background?
That PCB?
pcb and switches
Ive got quite a few laying around that I swap in and out and play with. Let me check that one, sec.
Might be installed in something but I've got a few more next to me waiting for a home when I srop being lazy
that's some collection
I wish I had a keyboard collection 😍
if I had money
The switches were NK creams. I wasnt a fan so I think I actually got rid of that PCB
Collection lol, more like addiction xD
Both 
So many switches
That’s sweet
just realizing I can get case and plate for like $100ish
still gonna wait for module announcement to decide but the "budget" route of not building an entire second board is fairly attractive
pc plate comes with the module does it not?
yea it does
yeah
that's why I'm holding off
if I buy module I can offload v1
that's why it's attractive
I wish module came out when I bought my wooting
if I buy PC plate and case I get stuck with steel plate, l60 switches and plastic case lol
I bought a new case, new everything
and stock keycaps
yeah keeping v1 stock and building second is pretty attractive but really does depend on module pricing
that redux on ali express is hella good deal tho
if i got module with switches I can definitely make another wooting but
Idk if my brother even like 60% layouts
yeah I already have l45's just haven't put them in yet cuz module
in my experience, i lubed all my switches and ended up having lots of trouble with the sensors 6 months later so i got frustrated and sold the keyboard entirely lol
Proper lube type will not interfere with the magnetic field of the sensors, even years later.
aw what fr
maybe i just overdid it because i took out the switches and saw a little puddle under each switch
Bro it’s not hot swappable 😭
No, not the wooting
or it was a completely separate issue i have no idea but for some reason at the 6 month mark my wooting would have nothing but non stop problems and it was super frustrating
I took the random 60% kb, modded everything without properly lubing the switches
Like I can’t desolder the switches,

I don’t have a soldering thing
Actually I may try if I find one
bro wha-
how-
i came to the conclusion that the source of my problems were from the lube because once i had taken out every single switch i could see a small pool of lube on every pcb slot and even after cleaning it all up i would still have problems with the sensors not registering presses and pressing by itself, however the other reason could have been the cable too but it was too frustrating for me so i sold it
Also, how to open a switch without a switch opener
tweezers
yeah its a painful process 
Ik
smool flat head screw driver
or you could use the leg of another switch
I have small surgical like tweezers
Imma use them
What can I also do to my stabs?
Other than bandaid mod (so it f doesn’t rattle)
holee mod
I heard about it
lube the corners excessively and also flatten it out if it's uneven
Oke
bandaid doesnt do anyting to rattle
it suppose to dampen the noise of the stabs hitting the pcb
Who tf is SlayingEar13😭
One of the backers usernames
If I’ll lube my switches today if I find a desoldering gun
Anyone got a link for the o rings and longer screws for burger mounting? Cant find link for Australians
o-rings: https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B082STPT58/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1
m2 screws kit, not sure where you can find standalone 5 or 6mm size: https://www.amazon.com/HELIFOUNER-Screws-Washers-Kit-Stainless/dp/B0B6J2CKKR/ref=sr_1_13?crid=3I7ZNM3K4CPPQ&keywords=m2%2B5mm%2B6mm&qid=1690239692&sprefix=m2%2B5mm%2B6mm%2Caps%2C286&sr=8-13&th=1
You can order one for like $5
Think I even got mine for cheaper
can the new wooting pc plate support screw in stabs and mounted stabs?
Yes
But
The pcb mounted stabs only work on the new wooting pcb
so currently the wooting only supports screw in stabs?
No
The old wootings only support plate mount while the new wooting pcb thats going to release soon is going to support both plate mount and pcb mounted stabs
ahh okay thank you
Is the new wooting pcb out? Or do I have already have it?
Not out yet
Whats the difference between the old and new?
From what i know everything the same only difference is the stabs
It will be cheaper for those that already own a 60% case that supports the wooting pcb
Therefore they only have to buy the pcb and switch
And some keycaps
That's pretty convenient for new buyers
With your current wooting yes the pc plate will fit
I think there is a few in this group you can try to search
Seen a few before here
ok thank you
love the keycaps
I was kinda wondering about this after buying the wooting plate swap but should I still burger mount after switching the plate? I never tried burger mounting
so clean
my only flaw with the wooting keyboard is the case everything else is perfect (im not a keyboard enthusiast)
Burger mount aim is to avoid contact pcb and case to create an more uniform sound profile, so yes
That is someones on the wootstations channel
Personal preference ig
I too also prefer to switch the case up
Currently using psd 60 while waiting for my tofu to come
Psd60 sounds hollow?
i was gonna get the psd 60 but it went oos when i wanted it so i stuck on waiting for redux
I got a psd60 because i didnt have to wait 
If it sounds bad i will change into a tofu along with pc plate when it comes
Idk yet to test it myself, heard it doesn’t sound that good
Should be fine have been using it for about a month already
I will be doing a gummy mount rather than burger hopefully it holds 
What makes u go for a tofu tho?
Weight?
What color did u get? 
I bought the anodized burgundy red
Planning to match with either black or white keycaps
Cerakeys probably

Only for ANSI layout
I’m going for silver so i guess my psd60 will do the job
i have ansi thankfully
Oh ya forgot to mention only for ansi
Any tips on how to burger mount?
I tried once and my pcb would fall out..
There is a video wooting made
The Wooting 60HE is a stiff keyboard, that we can agree. So, is there something you can do to change this? Sander tries out the burger mount mod for the Wooting 60HE to see if that makes a drastic change in feel, but also in sound.

Burger mount are just o rings above and below ur pcb to cushion it
I think ur screws isnt long enough to secure it
To separate the spacing between the pcb and the case
should i get longer ones??
I think someone here recommended a screw yesterdays for it
found it

Anyone know if these are compatiable with the wooting60 https://www.amazon.com/Black-Profile-Keycaps-Switches-Mechanical/dp/B06VWBV3Q7
yes
Yes, they are as long as you're using Ansi layout
YES YOU CAN

what mods would yall recommend, assuming you had everything available
Lube switches, case swap, pc plates, gmk keycaps, screw in stabs with bandaids, tape mode, burger or gummy mount

o
burger and lubed switches, just the basics more or less. looking forward to the pc plate the most
ok so i lubed my switches but i feel like doing it again. i have a pom plate and diff keycaps, and diff stabs
what size orings
You dont really have to lube your switches again it can last for quite awhile
But if you want to you have to clean the rest of the lube out properly again
And then re lube it
rip
Getting this also

its cause my wasd or my left side of the keyboard sounds more clacky than the right side
prolly from more use on the left
That’s because of tray mount
so im chilling?
It’s common
I like the extra .5mm but longer screws are recommended, it makes life easier doing the burger: o-rings https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B082STPT58/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1
Yeah u bing chilling and should be more uniform if u go for burger mount
m2x6mm screws
since i have a pom plate should i use the same standoffs or add/remove
nice unavailable stuff :<
Depends on ur plates holes
what kind of screws
any m2
Here
just look up m2 screw
Make sure it’s long enough to actually secure it
best to get a kit though
my plate is from smkeys and it was put together these screws: https://kbdfans.com/products/kbdfans-m2-3-countersunk-flat-head-screw-kit
Include: M2-3 Flat head x13pcs M2x3 Countersunk head x13pcs M2-3.5 Copper nickel plating Screw posts x13pcs Because it is packed by machine, if one is missing, it is normal, usually there are 13 in each package. Works with the following keyboards D60 D65 Boop65 (hot-swap version) KBD67 lite R1 Melody65(hot-swap version
I saw it also
💀💀
Almost the same price as wooting now
But i stay in asia so shipping is very ex for me and will be more ex than the tofu
Used to be 139 + 40 dollar shipping….
yeah 😭
for the case?
Assholes, you couldnt have dropped it when i bought it ? 😭
The Klippe T ?
Yep
That’s how much I got my Tofu with basically everything except keyvaps
ouch, custom keyboard scene slowly decaying, my guess
my tofu60 redux w/ brass weight bar was 110usd
$25 shipping gotta be insane
Its just getting more competitive
but then shipping for me was 27usd xD cause Oceania moment
i mean im use to it
would have still taken it over 139 plus shipping 😔
growing up with it being a techy person you come to accept it :<
45 for shipping is mad
we wanna talk shipping prices now...
I thought 139 for klippe t was cool til I saw the shipping price 💀
Still bought it anyway lol
My wooting cost 55$ to ship
It looked nice af
