[lunar sand]

because the space bar is a big area of colour that will be there making a lot of contrast...

[cyan summit]

alumaze or a redux would look sick additionally

and black spacebar

[harsh dove]

Appreciate the feedback, thank you! And yeah I got an alumaze and pc plate kit on the way

[cyan summit]

nicee

[mental hemlock]

@fluid ravine It's time.

[lunar sand]

what alumaze did you get_

?

i got the lavender 😄 its going to look sick with my octopus keycaps ehehhe

Btw for these two today. They are totally worth it … jeez

[harsh dove]

I was gonna get concrete but I went with black for my setup

And yeah I got the gateron tools

[lunar sand]

Opening lekkers is a pita

[harsh dove]

Using the gateron switch opener, feels like using a nutcracker lol it’s fun

[lunar sand]

Yep totally

I wished I had it when I first opened my switches 🤣

[harsh dove]

lol yeah I watched a lot of videos when I got this keyboard and took the advice from most of them

And some of you guys in here have helped me of course

[lunar sand]

Yeah I didn’t come here before I had my keyboard modded Ehehe

Man I have a soft spot for keyboards and mice Ehehe …

[cyan summit]

what keycaps?

[quiet bay]

Finished adding another layer of switch tape, on my bed praising my work rn

[mental hemlock]

no more rattly clacc, good job brother

[gaunt linden]

What other mods do you have?

[quiet bay]

Klippe T Case E-White
PC Plate
All Stock Foam
Poron switch pads
Tempest Tape mod (5 Layers)
Switch Tape Mod (3 layers) used medicare gentle tape
Tx Plate Mount Stabs
Holee Mod
Bandaid pad mod
Lubed 205g0
Lubed wires with molykote in the wooting lube kit
Gummy O ring (Used 30a bakaneko ring)

[gaunt linden]

Thank you

[mental hemlock]

30A or 50A tho

[lunar sand]

Dude… you are all about over engineering Ehehe

5 layers of tape mod for the PCB… 3 on the switch …

For the stabs wire I feel dielectric grease works the best though

But personal opinion

[harsh dove]

Personally feel like you shouldn’t need to holee mod TX stabs

[gaunt linden]

Whats the difference between TX and AP TX?

And is it really needed to upgrade from stock to TX stabs?

[bronze grove]

You won't gain anything from swapping out the stock, plate mounted stabs.

[harsh dove]

AP just stands for Almost Perfect which just has a thicker housing, and no it’s not needed

[lucid owl]

You can lube the stock stabs the wooting comes with just fine

[harsh dove]

^

[gaunt linden]

Yea right i think im sticking to the stock Ones

Thanks

Are we getting the new module tomorrow?🥲🥲🥲

[bronze grove]

On ... a sunday?

[autumn turtle]

does anyone here use the silicon pad as opposed to the poron foam from the switch plate? what do you think of it

[lunar sand]

Mods my friend. People will always change it just because it’s not stock 🤣

[bronze grove]

https://tenor.com/view/new-girl-youre-right-good-valid-gif-4971614

I swapped mine for white durocks, simple to make them less visible on my grey 60HE.

[mental hemlock]

facts

or for color theming

[gaunt linden]

Monday? Lol

[mental hemlock]

it's saturday

[bronze grove]

It's 11:30PM on a Saturday here in Yurrop.

[mental hemlock]

I swear I type faster after lubing my keyboard now lol

[mental hemlock]

Timezone's aren't real

made up by Big Time

[gaunt linden]

Here it’s Saturday 3:33 pm

[bronze grove]

I didn't ask!

[mental hemlock]

Holy fuck, that's really nice.

[harsh dove]

Reminds me of a topographical map.

[harsh dove]

Yeah, they seem kinda cool

Me tryna look at these photos

This intro is hilarious

[fathom yoke]

Lmao i suppose i shouldve rotated them huh

There we go 😂

[harsh dove]

if you don't mind

I like the theme, very solid

[fathom yoke]

Yea I bought the finalmouse and then ordered my wooting and was like hm keycaps which then evolved into the coiled cable and new deskmat so the OCD really started kicking in until the rabbit hole was fully sent down

Plus the black alumaze with the small gold block was just perfect

[fringe torrent]

ever thought about going down the mousepad rabbit hole
also awesome setup

[harsh dove]

mousepad rabbit hole is fun

[cyan adder]

IM DONE SWITCHES TAPING ALLL + had to relube ALLLL my switches

[graceful jacinth]

Do you have to use the silocone rings for the alumaze or is the foam enough?

[void python]

I chose to use the foam and the rings. I'm also using the PC plate with the silicone pad, so I'm not sure if the rings are doing much.

[fluid ravine]

good job poch

im proud

[fluid ravine]

its been 4 days-

aight

ima go eat and keep working on mine

[mental hemlock]

I know. It's been a long week.

[fathom yoke]

Nah I havent, I had a gpx superlight before the starlight 12 and i bought the deskmat from logitech that they would like “bundle” with it on amazon and i’m pretty sure it was like $50. After a few months of use it started separating the top part of the pad from the bottom… the deskmat I have now is from Drop its under the recommended with the GMK Blue Samurais and its double stitched around the edge and was only $30… I don’t think I’ll ever buy a non double stitched pad again

[fringe torrent]

logitech are not really known for making durable mousepads

plenty of other brands that make really nice stuff

[lethal dove]

@fluid ravine experimented with the distance of my phone for recording, got some new sound tests that are as close to the real sound as possible with a phone mic

https://discord.com/channels/167181566978555904/1169726936805806171

Hopefully tomorrow I find some time to finally lube the switches

[fathom yoke]

Yea i bought the secret labs magnus desk with the magpad thats leather and magnetizes to the desk and then I got that deskmat from drop ontop of that with my keyboard and mouse on it, so far I’ve loved it

[fluid ravine]

w

i will listen to it after dinner

[fringe torrent]

if you get the chance you should checkout artisan mousepads something like the hien and otsu

[proven tendon]

alumaze, no plate foam, stock case foam + the rubber o rings

oh also 1 layer tape mod

[fluid ravine]

no lube?

[proven tendon]

i lubed switches yeah

[lethal dove]

Now that I am taking apart my wooting to lube, my vega is gonna get some use again

[fluid ravine]

i swear everytime i see those keycaps profile
first thing that pops up in my mind is marshmellows

[lethal dove]

haha same

like cherry more, but these were only available in KAT

[fluid ravine]

damn

[fringe torrent]

nice m1k

[untold wigeon]

Listen to me.

[lethal dove]

thx, always nice to see people who also went deep into the mouse hobby xD

[mental hemlock]

wireless m1k

https://tenor.com/view/omg-yes-antonio-banderas-relief-gif-14682079

[fringe torrent]

bad rabbit hole

[lethal dove]

of course😏

[harsh dove]

all rabbit holes are bad

[harsh dove]

ngl this sounds mushy to me

[fluid ravine]

ooo

👍

[cyan adder]

why do u think it sounds like this? over lubing ? or not enough lube?

[harsh dove]

over lube

[cyan adder]

idk i cant get the same sound as IRL when i record

[lethal dove]

28g wireless mouse is just pure bliss when using

[harsh dove]

bro got the drug dealer scale

[cyan adder]

its like creamy/thocky to me irl

[mental hemlock]

how much

[harsh dove]

I feel it, as long as you're happy with it, that's all that matters

[mental hemlock]

mouse weigher by day, drug dealer by night

[harsh dove]

true

[mental hemlock]

how do you think he can afford it

[lethal dove]

need to finance these expensive hobbies somehow 👀

[harsh dove]

makes sense

lmfao

[mental hemlock]

how much for it

make an m2k or m3k wireless then we're talking

[elder hollow]

Man that's cool

[lethal dove]

dont plan on selling it sorry :/ was also made with a non resell carbon shell, so dont think the guys would be happy me selling it

[fringe torrent]

wait i recognize that m1k now i remember seeing it ages ago on twitter

[mental hemlock]

your money>someone's happiness

[fringe torrent]

https://fxtwitter.com/Rec0nkill/status/1301655949942362117

[mental hemlock]

why did you 3D print a base for it?

what did the original one look like>

[fringe torrent]

that was from the kickstarter

[lethal dove]

bro exposing my past just like that 👀

[fringe torrent]

[lethal dove]

the base was a custom design for the new pcb and stuff

but original one was 3d printed too

[mental hemlock]

how in the world did you make it wireless? what is it's current polling rate?

[lethal dove]

swap in a wireless pcb from a different mouse

mine is a logitech g305 pcb

[lethal dove]

1000

[cyan adder]

does anyone has a tofu redux that has uneven feet?

[mental hemlock]

@marble shuttle

[cyan adder]

IDK how to fix that

[lethal dove]

had plans to do a m2k back then, but never got around doing it. Also wanted to make one with sidebuttons for apex and such

but havent modded mice in a while now

[mental hemlock]

It's time.

[untold wigeon]

how does buying a m2k even work

i never see a buy button or such

how do they sell

[lethal dove]

they sold them in batches

once they were sold out you had to wait for the next batch

now I think the stopped the m2k and are working on the m3k

[mental hemlock]

they are

[fringe torrent]

ye they stopped taking orders on the m2k since September last year

theo they had a small drop a few months ago of some left over ones

but m3k comes out this month

[lethal dove]

maybe, once the wooting is done, still have a few m1k b stock shells I could convert to m2k shells

[mental hemlock]

how much, is the question

[fringe torrent]

since the last batch of m2k sold for 320 euros each

[lethal dove]

probs around 200-300, something like that

[fringe torrent]

blue mentioned the m3k was going to be more expensive but the m2s is 650euros i think so somewhere between that

[fringe torrent]

more

prob between 320 and 400 euros

for the m3k i think

[lethal dove]

depends how much time the mod takes

[lethal dove]

he was asking for a wireless m2k i think

[mental hemlock]

sell me the mouse with the mod

how much would that total be

[fringe torrent]

that would be so costly

especially if you dont have the m2k shell already

[mental hemlock]

worth

[lethal dove]

as said i would take a m1k shell and cut out the space for the scroll wheel. total would be in the 200-300 range

[fringe torrent]

thats how much the m2k go for these days if you can find someone selling

[mental hemlock]

I'm in US

[mental hemlock]

what do you think the final weight would be?

Might just do a zero mouse instead for the price

[fringe torrent]

2 of the m2ks on that list are from america and sold for around 650 usd

its a great mouse but deff not worth that cost

[mental hemlock]

definitely not lol

[lethal dove]

These could all be m2k shells after a bit of dremel time 😏😂

[fringe torrent]

what

i cant remember does the m1k have the bottom lip like the m2k

[lethal dove]

no the m1k didnt have that

[fringe torrent]

i really want a glossy m2k/m3k

[lethal dove]

works in favor of modding not having it tho

[fringe torrent]

is it possible to fit a viper v2 pcb in the shell ?

[lethal dove]

would say the pcb is too long

and wouldnt be ez to cut

barely got the g305 pcb into the m1k, and had to cut to the absolute max

[fringe torrent]

really awesome mod tho

[lethal dove]

thx :)

[cyan adder]

Im a bit scared that I overlubed after switch tape modding .. do you think it will break in over time or I have to remove it manually ?

[lethal dove]

that depends on how much you would have overlubed, if its not that much sure, it will break in over time, but if there is way too much then no

but also note that a lot of people feel like they overlubed their switches after lubing switches for the first time. I too thought I had overlubed my first board, its an unusual feeling that for the first time

[shrewd sun]

not the lightest

[lethal dove]

give it a week and if it still feels overlubed then you might have to go back and remove some

[lethal dove]

hehe #🔧│keyboard_modding message

gotchu 😏

[shrewd sun]

gimme a minute

looks nice tho, good job with the mod

[lethal dove]

thx, yours too, is that the optimum mouse shell?

[shrewd sun]

certainly is

[fringe torrent]

zeromouse design i was super tempted in it originally

[lethal dove]

you need to go all in and get a smaller battery :D

ez 3g saved

I rund a 150mah lipo haha

[fringe torrent]

didnt optimum have issues with using a smaller battery with the viper v2 pcb

[shrewd sun]

ill buy one for shits and giggles but on 4k polling it would last a couple hours max

[lethal dove]

shouldnt be an issue if the voltage is right

[fringe torrent]

for me the zeromouse looks slightly too big when compared to the m2k

[shrewd sun]

kinda, he needed a 3 pin battery but used a 2 pin and the pcb freaked out

[lethal dove]

ah I see

[fathom yoke]

This is how mine sounds. Alumaze, aftermarket foam from amazon in the case, 2 layers tape mod, silicone pad with pc plate, holee mod, clipped stabs, gmk keycaps

[lethal dove]

yeah that might be a hickup then

[shrewd sun]

does anyone know what jst the razer pcb uses? 1mm i fink?

[plush tendon]

Took me over 3 hours, but lubing my keys PAYS DIVIDENDS. I also added the tape mod. The sound and feel are 10/10. Before hand I really hated the feel /sound of typing on a wooting.

Now it's heaven.

Also enjoying the Alumaze. Very gorgeous case.

[fathom yoke]

Yup, my entire build from start to finish took me roughly 6 hours but it was my first time building a keyboard

[plush tendon]

SAME! Grueling work lmao

[fringe torrent]

which colour did you get ?

[fathom yoke]

Holee mod was a pain for the first like 2 or 3 stabs but i eventually got the hang of it

[plush tendon]

Concrete grey. I really love it. I've seen pics of the black one which also looks fantastic

[fathom yoke]

I got the black its so nice

[fringe torrent]

have you got a pic of your concrete grey build ?

[plush tendon]

My spacebar key is the only one that doesn't sound great. Do you guys have any advbice? its not terrible, but compared to all the other keys its meh

[fringe torrent]

i should have my grey alumaze tomorrow

[fathom yoke]

Did u do holee mod and trim the stabs?

[plush tendon]

I didn't bother with that, do you have a video I could follow?

I just relubed them.

[fathom yoke]

https://youtu.be/-vhpHjlkRgQ?si=X5yIO_fKXWBV1bjB

Best stabs video i think there is

[weary tree]

U dont need to clip the stabs

[plush tendon]

❤️ much love will try it tomorrow

one sec ill post a pick of my case

[weary tree]

Not recommended even

[plush tendon]

not great lighting currently

[fathom yoke]

Idk i clipped mine and it sounds great

[plush tendon]

The lighting is gold as well, but again the lighting isn’t great.

[weary tree]

Tirade can write a whole essay on why you whouldnt

[plush tendon]

But the finish feels really nice.

Need to replace my mat and chord. Just haven’t had time.

[plush tendon]

This is good to know 😄

[fringe torrent]

looks awesome how would you describe the colour of the grey like is it pretty neutral shade or does it lean towards being cool or warm in tone ?

hard to get an idea with all the different photos iv seen

[fathom yoke]

Ill drop this again, to each their own ig. End of the day everyone has their preference on sound 🤷🏻‍♂️

[fluid ravine]

about wut

[weary tree]

Clip stabs

[fluid ravine]

i can be the temporary tirade

[plush tendon]

It's darker then I expected. But I'm glad because I bought these keys:
https://osumekeys.com/products/matcha-keycaps
I think it will blend really well.

[weary tree]

Lmao

[fluid ravine]

fill me in

what going on

hurry b4 i get put in a lobby

too late

[weary tree]

Just about about clipping stabs

[weary tree]

Does look nice

[fringe torrent]

those should look nice

[weary tree]

Im considering getting those black and white take ctrl keycaps

This or the newer topographical version of the deskr when they release

[lunar crow]

what is the best way to fix the spring ping of the lekker switches?

[untold wigeon]

lube it

[lunar crow]

205g0?

[untold wigeon]

yeah thats what i used

go heavy but not unreasonable on the bottom of the spring

light coats everywhere else

[cyan adder]

Yeah it’s not my first time.. I had to relube them after switch tape 2 layers

But thanks for answer

I might leave it break in for a week or two, then see

Here is how it sounds

More creamy irl btw

[fluid ravine]

my ass over here having to heavy lube my first sets of switches

mx BROWNS

they need the over lube job

[fluid ravine]

sounds accurate

[cyan adder]

Idk bro I’m a bit scared that I may be overlubed

It was not smooth when I applied 2 layers of switch tape so I just went putting a light application of 205g0 on the tape

We have pretty much the same build now my tenz, I just don’t have the pcb pads / polyfill yet, they should be there next week

But I might be a little bit too much pessimistic about it. Actually if it breaks in, it should sound very good

[untold wigeon]

why are u bothering with cherry mx browns?

[cyan summit]

mx browns worst switches existing

after blues

[fluid ravine]

"first sets of switches"

[untold wigeon]

🙏

[cyan summit]

is there even a small difference between the molykote em-50l and dielectric grease? does anyone know

[surreal linden]

anyone know if its possible to have wave with my own color profile?

[cyan summit]

I dont think so

[surreal linden]

oh

damn

[fluid ravine]

ah f

i just thought about it

i think i might have to make more recordings of configurations again with my new case

[dusty field]

mx browns are based

[obsidian dagger]

not with wootility, but artemis probably can

[surreal linden]

ah i see

[gaunt linden]

When is the release now?

[weary tree]

In 2weeks aprox

[cyan summit]

any pricerange for it?

[sacred jay]

im not sure if artemis can do fn stuff or profiles

well if it can i bet it would involve a lot of pain

[lucid owl]

This sounds like an overlube job 🙂

Not the worst, but def a bit overlubed

[cyan adder]

Yeah sadly

[untold wigeon]

i mean instead of sounding chattery now they sound mushy

its like moving from 1 extreme to the next

[cyan adder]

I guess if it doesn’t break in I will just open them again and clean the lube

[weary tree]

ye is better to lube less than overlube

always easier to add lube

than to remove it

[grizzled path]

OVER OR NOTHING

[weary tree]

lmao

i slightly overlube my gaming keys, wasd qerf, cuz i use them a lot.

[glass scarab]

Yellow. Any recomendation vids on how to lube switches? Thanks in advance

[weary tree]

the wooting video

[weary tree]

https://youtu.be/WN_-GYLTfpY?si=EXidWzJw8uJ_rvAZ

[pale aspen]

@gaunt linden they said 8 November isnt it?

[weary tree]

Like 2-3 days ago they said they they delayed 2 weeks

On the live stream

[weary tree]

https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxWloVEcGwp4ObOGgdH4TnoMKlU2_bWi2y?si=3Ef6w5EMnlT-p9S0

[pale aspen]

lol

again

[tribal marsh]

phew. seems like my tofu60 redux case will be no use this year then 🥲

[velvet egret]

They never said November 8th. the previous livestream they said they were going to push back the module 1-2 weeks due to the amount of customer support tickets they have.

[untold wigeon]

what do you guys think is the best matching coiled cable for the just black alumaze

im trying to match the keyboard to the gold ulx

[lethal dove]

Im surprised this is stated like this in the modding faq, all my switches had a consistent amount of housing wobble. Even after filming with 0.15 films, there are still some with slight wobble, but much much better than before.

[daring umbra]

did they mention a new keyboard layout or no?

[obsidian dagger]

nothing we didnt know yet

[fathom yoke]

Could just go with the stealth coiled cable wooting sells or one from drop

I got mine from drop, a lil more expensive than the wooting one but it matches my keycap set

[fringe torrent]

something like this

from cablemod would prob look nice

[fathom yoke]

Oh yea or cablemod ^^^

[somber sundial]

damn this one has the tape mark too on the left side... wonder if this is the case for all the concrete grays

[bronze grove]

All cases. Should go away with a light rub

[somber sundial]

oh that's great to hear, thought they were permanent

[fathom yoke]

Mine didnt leave a tape mark but i have the black case🤷🏻‍♂️

[bronze grove]

It can be very faint.

I only barely see it on my grey one if I really shine it at just the right angle. Without doing anything to it.

[somber sundial]

damn, i'm just hoping it's not a chemical reaction like in the feedback thread. Mine should be coming soon so I guess I'll find out

[fathom yoke]

I mean it should j be adhesive like if u take a piece of tape or sticker off anything, lil rub with the thumb and its good if anything

[somber sundial]

ye hoping that's the case

[verbal folio]

bruuh i wanted to do the tape mod on my wooting but turns out i have a too fat screwdriver

[bronze grove]

Gotta use a PH1

[untold wigeon]

pro tip: file ur fingernail into a ph1 and u wont need to buy one

[verbal folio]

i do but the bit is too fat

[bronze grove]

No it isn't.

[verbal folio]

like the base of it doesn’t clear the hole

[bronze grove]

So the handle?

Well that's a different matter then

[verbal folio]

like the top part of the bit because i’m using snap ons

[bronze grove]

A bit should fit just fine.

[untold wigeon]

🪛 + =

[verbal folio]

yeah but the bit is too fat like when i tried to turn the screwdriver it just scrapes against the edges of the hole and gets stuck xD

its like that

but ph1

[verbal folio]

now i got the bit but its not magnetic so idk how to get the screw out after unscrewing

[bronze grove]

Turn the keyboard upside down and give it a light shake?

[verbal folio]

will it not like go everywhere around the pcb?

[bronze grove]

So? You're pulling out the PCBA anyway

[verbal folio]

aight so now do i just put tape over it?

and make holes for the screws

[quiet bay]

extra step you don't have to

can always just pull off the tape xd

[verbal folio]

cause i’m gonna put 3 layers xD

[normal schooner]

hey we made a video about this mod

its on youtube

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6poF-Z0ajhE

[muted verge]

It was painters tape/masking tape that was the best for modding?

[normal schooner]

yess

[muted verge]

Arrite thank you👍

[harsh dove]

Moleskin FTW

[quiet bay]

btw different tape different results

[quiet bay]

i'm going to try moleskin if I ever order it lol

[harsh dove]

Surprised how many people don’t try moleskin

[quiet bay]

it's cause it's overshadowed by painters and masking tape

and people don't really bother to search further

[harsh dove]

Yeah, I just like the deeper mellow sound it gives

[quiet bay]

i want to try it

[harsh dove]

Definitely should

[quiet bay]

I also have polyfill and kilmat in my cart as well xd

[harsh dove]

Yeah ima try the keebtape

[verbal folio]

i don’t have moleskin but heard of it

[harsh dove]

Otherwise moleskin FTW

[verbal folio]

2nd layer coming on

[normal schooner]

looks good

is this your first mod?

[verbal folio]

ye

[muted verge]

So like different mm on the tape?

[harsh dove]

Nah like different tape materials

Like painters tape or medical tape/paper tape, fabric tape like moleskin, etc

[muted verge]

Ahhh i see

[harsh dove]

But the amount of layers you do also make a difference

Most only do one layer of moleskin, but painters tape most do 3-5 layers typically

[muted verge]

Arrite i will try first with 3-4 layers of painters snd then if im not satisfied then mby moleskin is the way.

[harsh dove]

Yeah I think I even saw TenZ used two different tape materials

[muted verge]

Daim.

[harsh dove]

Sent this to my buddy and he asked if I was putting Vaseline on my stabs.
I said no but that doesn’t sound like a terrible idea lol

[muted verge]

Hahaha

[cyan adder]

Too much sticky ?

[harsh dove]

Sticky in what way? Like the sound profile?

Or the material itself

[cyan adder]

Material

[harsh dove]

Yeah it is very sticky compared to painters tape

If you ever remove it you just wanna pull slowly

[cyan adder]

And probably left residues right ?

Anyway my keebtape should come tomorrow or Tuesday

You’ll have a sound test

[harsh dove]

Not really, no. Nothing you can’t just rub off with your thumb either

[cyan adder]

My switches are mushy atm so either it will breaks in or either I’ll clean off some

[harsh dove]

Lol yeah I felt like they sounded kinda mushy yesterday

But give it some time

[cyan adder]

Sup rinsing that my wasd and 1234 are already breaking in

The mushiness on these keys are gone

[harsh dove]

That’s good

[cyan adder]

Yeah but.. I never use others keys xD

Exept spacebar / left control / left shift

[harsh dove]

They’ll just take longer to break in then lol

[lunar sand]

anyone tried kilmat already (or similar) ?

[cyan adder]

😂😂😂

[harsh dove]

Keebmat? No not yet

[lunar sand]

kilmat ... its a sound dampening material used in cars, but saw that had good effect on alum keyboards too

[harsh dove]

Ah that stuff

No I haven’t

[cyan adder]

Well Graveshift 30A 35A and 50A comes tomorrow morning, Keebtape + Keebmat thock films / Poron switch pads / plate pads should come tomorrow or Tuesday and polyfill is coming from Spain Wednesday

[verbal folio]

4 layers done just gonna tidy up the edges

[cyan adder]

My only thing left is to swap my stabs wire from krytox to grease / xht

[cyan adder]

Some people in woostation channel did. They also updated sounds test

[harsh dove]

Don’t waste money on XHT lol

Overhyped

[cyan adder]

By the end of the next week I should have been done modding my wooting. Will post all the sound test / pics / mods on woostation as I receive everything

[cyan adder]

What lube is that

[harsh dove]

Molly Water

[cyan adder]

Has anybody tried moleskin here on the wooting pcb ?

[verbal folio]

i think i made this shiit too thick

cause my screws aren’t screwing on

xD

[harsh dove]

Did you cut holes for the screws

[verbal folio]

ye

[harsh dove]

and did you buy longer screws?

[verbal folio]

um

no

lmao

[lunar sand]

btw, i wanted to tryout the gummy o-ring mount mod ( install it between the plate and the pcb ) ... what size should i look for ?

[harsh dove]

You might need longer m2 screws if your tape layer is that thick

but I'm sure you can find a way

[muted verge]

How many layers did u do?

[harsh dove]

he did 4

[verbal folio]

4

[muted verge]

Ahh i didnt see that

[verbal folio]

im gonna keep one then

ye one works fine

it screws on

[harsh dove]

Nice

[muted verge]

Hopefully the tape im gonna buy tmrw isnt that thick so i can get more than 1 layer

Does foam under the keycap help? I wonder if im gonna buy some for the spacebar since im not 100% on lubing the stabilizers yet.

[plush tendon]

It looks like it in the picture but that’s not true. When you get the case the accent piece comes right out. I cleaned it and put it back.

[harsh dove]

I've heard people say don't use foam pads under the keycaps, for the spacebar I think you're fine though, someone told me that some call it "cheating" lol but honestly I would just lube your stabs man, its worth it

[muted verge]

Ait its worth a shot to check it out. Wasnt that expensive.

[verbal folio]

broo this one screw just doesn’t wanna catch the stand off

i might leave it out

[harsh dove]

Is what expensive?

[harsh dove]

Which one?

[verbal folio]

one beside alt

on the right side

[harsh dove]

You mainly just wanna tighten the screw closest to USB port and the rest just make sure they catch the stand off

But don’t tighten all the way

[somber sundial]

Thanks for the reply. Just to make sure, I was talking about the two stripes on the side - were you referring to them as well?

[harsh dove]

lol I didn’t even notice that till you pointed it out

Now I can’t unsee it

Just use your thumb and some elbow grease and rubbing alcohol

[somber sundial]

#1169637509366567002 message apparently alcohol doesn't help and some think it's a reaction between the coating and tape. Was just wondering if craiggles got it to actually disappear

[plush tendon]

Wow I never noticed it because I always viewed the case at an angle I couldn’t see it. The more you look at an angle the more you see it. I still wiped it down with water and it’s harder to see but I think it’s permanent

I can’t see it at all on mine unless it’s directly in sunlight.

It’s completely gone on the top part though.

[somber sundial]

I appreciate the clarification! Good luck with the wipe

[harsh dove]

Yeah keep us updated if you get it off

[plush tendon]

Hopefully in the future they use something else to hold the accent piece in place.

[somber sundial]

If you can't see it from the top (as it doesn't in your second pic) that's good news. I don't look at my keyboard from the side thankfully haha

[plush tendon]

If they just use a temp screw that would be better than tape.

I can only see it when a lot of light is hitting it and I’m viewing it at an extreme angle now.

[somber sundial]

Like many product these days, early birds are usually beta testers

[harsh dove]

I was just gonna say use like a rubber grommet or like tap in rubber screw

[somber sundial]

or completely separately

[harsh dove]

Yeah that too

[verbal folio]

i decided im gonna pass on the tape mod until i get longer screws

i took off the tape and it perfectly caught the stand offs

[cyan adder]

DUDE my lube starts to break in

finally i will probably not have to remove the lube

dang

[weary tree]

maybe they should just put it apart and the costumer install it when thery receive it

[plush tendon]

That’s an even better idea. It’s so easy to put in place.

[fluid ravine]

I miss tirade
But gotta let him enjoy his trip

[cyan adder]

how long did it take to your lube to break in @fluid ravine ? also does your pcb switches pad makes a big diff in sound?

[fluid ravine]

Took like 2 weeks I think
Idrk about switch pads.. I didn't get to compare with and without

I would take one out to compare but I ran out of switch pads to replace cus I use the rest in my friends keeb

Me in a sushi buffet trying to think of a way to make me keeb a bit deeper

[mental hemlock]

I missed you.

[fluid ravine]

I miss you

Oh is the module out yet?

Just wondering

Nvm its not

[mental hemlock]

no

Un-fucking-fortunately.

[fluid ravine]

Just want you to get your wooting already

[mental hemlock]

same brother, same

[molten yacht]

good luck with waiting 2-3 more months

[cunning cove]

My alumaze sitting in Orlando for 3 days just to travel a few miles to me 😭

[fluid ravine]

Mine did that to me too

[lunar sand]

you don't have a wooting or are you building a second one with the module?

[mental hemlock]

no wooting, planning my second custom with the module

[lunar sand]

Yeah waiting for the module myself but I will give my he60 to my kid and build a new one for me. Is there any ideas on the price ?

[obsidian dagger]

they said it will be similar to the 60he

[quiet bay]

my guess would be like 120 usd since it's not gonna have switches

[loud zephyr]

worse things could happen, I guess

https://www.twitch.tv/timkeyless/clip/CheerfulOpenPlumNotLikeThis?featured=false&filter=clips&range=all&sort=time

fucking dumbass

[random tapir]

Hey fellas, anyone with experience with ceramic keycaps?

[mental hemlock]

also check in #1070668460905988106 loll

[random tapir]

youre my plug man thanks ❤️

[mental hemlock]

anytime brother

[untold wigeon]

Still no restock on these orings

Shipping was to good to be true

[mental hemlock]

which ones?

[lethal dove]

Sound test of the bakeneko case now with lubed switches (stabs not perfect yet)

[mental hemlock]

you're insane.

@dreamy raven

[lethal dove]

Now that the steel plate sound test is done, I can finally do the swap to the alu plate

Very excited to see what the sound difference is steel vs aluminum

[verbal folio]

i

figured it out

it was my port which wasn't aligning but i had to redo the tape mod again because i took of the tape and threw it into the bin lmao

and i ran out of tape so i only have 2 layers

rip

[quiet bay]

These cerakeys would look nice on the black alumaze 🤔

[fathom yoke]

Holy

Those are clean asf

[lunar sand]

Way to busy / too much visual noise for my liking. Eheh

[graceful jacinth]

Anyone getting misinputs with the wooting coiled cable?

[normal schooner]

no

[lunar sand]

i think that's a little strange to be the same value as the wooting keyboard since, there's no case, there's no foams, there's no keycaps, there's no straps ... there's no switches ...
Can you please tell us where you saw that they say "it will be similar to the 60he" ?

[faint oriole]

I mean I wouldn't be surprised if it's relatively similar to the HE no? I feel like the main cost of the 60HE is from the PCB itself, the rest of stuff like the case, keys, straps, n such r probably insanely cheapt to produce

[cinder merlin]

First time lubing, does any one know if this is overlubed?

[faint oriole]

and its not like its only the pcb that comes with the module there's a plate, foam I think, the PCB screw in stabs, n the option to add switches on during checkout so the price will be relatively similar

[faint oriole]

yeah ill be real I feel like thats all up to personal prefence, a bit of a cop out answer, but still if it feels like super mushy n you don't like it because of that prob a lil over lubed

[cinder merlin]

Ah kk, not mushy but just kinda new to it

[faint oriole]

otherwise it sounds fine to me but idk how it actually feels

[cinder merlin]

Yea the sound doesn’t seem to capture well on the phone

Thanks!

[somber sundial]

lmfao, yeah I will take the racing stripes

[fringe linden]

Hey i need help if anybody can help me

i just modded my wooting that i got a couple days ago, i did a 2 layer tape mode, lubed the switches and kept the original foam i put everything back together and got all the screws in expect 1 screw that will refuse to go in and it scratching the metal around it. what do i do someone please help.

[gaunt linden]

Are TX the best stabs for the Wooting?(im looking to get some white ones so it matches everything)

[quiet bay]

well tx do make good stabs, just make sure it's plate mount

I'd say they come better stock than wooting

[surreal linden]

are burger mount and tape mod the only mods that make a keyboard sound thocky?

[fringe torrent]

i have tx installed in mine and really like them compared to the stock stabs

[pseudo marten]

Has anyone tried splitting the spacebar? I was thinking about using custom switch plate with holes for 2 additional switches (one on the left and one on the right). Then wiring them up to a microcontroller, so i can have 3 smaller spacebars instead of 1.

[quiet bay]

Not a professional but isn't there only one he sensor for the spacebar 🤔

lekker switches are contactless

and pretty sure noone has tried it yet to my knowledge

[gilded hinge]

i wonder if akko's new he cream yellow switches will work with the wooting

[untold wigeon]

can someone tell me the difference between the PC plate foam, silicon and the normal pcb foam? and what causes more thock

[quiet bay]

The different is just the material
Silicone is supposed to mute the keyboard more
Poron should produce a thockier sound that silicone

[untold wigeon]

oh okay

has anyone had difficulties installing o rings with the stock wooting foam? its too big and my board wont compress with it

[gaunt linden]

Where did you get yours ?

[untold wigeon]

i filmed and added poron pads to the bottom of my switches but it barely changed the feel of the switches

[surreal linden]

are spacebars suppose to make a heavy thonk sound typically?

[fringe torrent]

tx ap stabs from switchkeys unless you're from australia you're better off looking at other stores

https://www.switchkeys.com.au/collections/stabilisers/products/tx-plate-mount-stabilisers

[gaunt linden]

Where Can i get some? If you know any other place, they are sold out on some websites like in divinikey and keebsforall

[gaunt linden]

Thank you!

The 6.25u are the correct ones right

[fringe torrent]

yep correct size

[quiet bay]

The store I bought them from also has them sold out unfortunately

I just checked

I ordered from Mekibo

[gaunt linden]

Oh well i will have to wait then, Thank you @quiet bay @fringe torrent for the help!

[untold wigeon]

does anyone have an alternative case foam to GOKA b/c they're sold out

[quiet bay]

broo me and you I've been trying to get some GOKA foam but it's been sold out for a WHILE 😭

[untold wigeon]

fr I thought they went out of business. did you apply o ring to your wooting?

I filmed and added switch tripods but they barely changed the sound of the keys

maybe they did because my keyboard thock more but i thhink thats because of the pc plate

[quiet bay]

I gummy o ring mounted my wooting

I didn't use tripods but

I used poron switch pads

they go on the pcb

[untold wigeon]

did the poron switch pads help with the acoustics

[quiet bay]

I'd say so, I believe they did make it sound a bit deeper

although a pe foam sheet works best it kinda interferes with the switches since it's too thick 😭

[untold wigeon]

they attatch on the back of the PCB?

whats pe foam sheet

[quiet bay]

no on top of it

[quiet bay]

a sheet made of pe foam :v

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnQMXVchnrU

[untold wigeon]

you have to remove all the switches when doing htis?

[quiet bay]

nah you dont have to

just take the pcb out and separate the pcb and switch plate

and put the pe foam on it

and put it back together

[untold wigeon]

isnt the pe foam included in the default wooting, wedged between the PCB and the plate

[quiet bay]

no

[untold wigeon]

whats the thing wedged in between then

[quiet bay]

poron plate foam

[untold wigeon]

did you notice any improvmenets with burger mount? Im using the touf 60 redux case foam because the wooting foam is too bulky

need goka case foam 😭

[gaunt linden]

When Mounting with o ring theres no need to use the screws right

[untold wigeon]

u need the screws

to screw it with the case

[cedar hemlock]

Hi guys, anyone know what’s the size of Phillips screwdriver which used to swap the case?

[cyan summit]

00

0 does work aswell but you might slip off sometimes

[loud zephyr]

Stock foam is two pieces, peel the bottom portion off

[untold wigeon]

oooooooooooo

[cedar hemlock]

Ty bro

[gaunt linden]

Isn’t that for the burgermount?

[untold wigeon]

isnt o ring and burgermount the same

[fluid ravine]

Gummy oring mount and burger mount

[untold wigeon]

whats the difference

[fluid ravine]

gummy o'ring surrounds the module which goes into the case, but since we're going from tray mount to gummy o'ring, we consider this as friction mount. This mount helps balance the sound profile throughout the board unlike tray mount which has deadspots.
burger mount however uses small silicone orings that goes between the case, screws, and pcb which hence the name burger mount. You could use the screw depth to a specific sound profile depending on your preference, but unfortunately it still has the effects of tray mount.

[untold wigeon]

yeah i do burger mount

[gaunt linden]

Is yours 30A or 50A?

[fluid ravine]

30

[untold wigeon]

can I hear a sound test of your wooting

[cedar hemlock]

I really can’t put the screw into the case😭

Without a magnetic screwdriver

Holly

[loud zephyr]

Tweezers can help to realign and once the screw upright, it should make it easier

[frail hemlock]

Use one of the switch stems to magnetise your screwdriver or do upside down

ma ma mia!

[verbal folio]

i did it

without a magnetic screwdriver

[verbal folio]

when i unscrewed the screws then i lifted the pcb and turned it around fast so that the screws would fall out then when i put them in i would put a screw on the tip of the screwdriver and align it and let it fall into its place

[cedar hemlock]

tyty

[cedar hemlock]

finally done

Hard tho

[verbal folio]

fire

[weary tree]

could you give feedback wheter that plate affects the switches actuation on 0.1mm

heard they can interfere because of those flex cuts

like pressing one key activates the other kind of interferance

[copper zephyr]

sure, I’ll try test that after I finished

[pliant dust]

keycap store recommendations for eu?

https://tenor.com/view/catwait-waiting-gif-3287275745737236914

[lethal dove]

Keygem has some or mykeyboard.eu (they are restructuring rn so don't have that much)

If you are interested in gmk, https://oblotzky.industries/ has some nice ones in stock

[cyan adder]

Whoever wanna buy Graveshift o ring

THEY ARE REALLY WORTH IT

i bought a o ring from local store that wasn’t specially made for keyboard, and the difference with the Graveshift one is so huge

The Graveshift one is PERFECT

[pliant dust]

https://tenor.com/view/wiggler-kitten-jiggle-gif-26320634

will check it out thanks

[lethal dove]

What kind of difference did you notice?

[cyan adder]

Fits better - really smooth to take out / in the case (tofu redux)

You can feel the quality of it

On the cheap one you have these strips

On thé Graveshift one you have 0

[lethal dove]

is your local o-ring 3.5mm and the right ID?

[cyan adder]

I mean they’re really better made in term of quality

Yes it’s the right dimensions, it was using it last days

[lethal dove]

hm wierd, I have one that looks every similar to yours and it fits perfect in my case.

did you get the graveshift m size?

[cyan adder]

M size, I bought 30A 35A and 50A, I’ve tried 30A first and hasn’t feel the need to swap / test others

[lethal dove]

do you still know the dimensions? there is a bit of range of sizes you can get, would be interesting if our red ones have the same ID

[cyan adder]

OD 185mm, thckness 3,5mm and hardness 55A\

for the local store one

The Graveshift one is a bit bigger but its 30A

It’s way better to fit

[lethal dove]

Okay exact same as mine, will try put gravshift soon, interested if I notice such a difference too

[lethal dove]

Are you from the eu? If so where did you order the graveshift orings from?

[cyan adder]

Im in France. I’ve heard about keebcats for eu but the shipping was the same price as Graveshift located the us so… and it was out of stock on keebcats

Ive ordered directly from Graveshift

I just had to pay 6€ customs on delivery

[lethal dove]

Ah okay, how long did it take?

[cyan adder]

1 week

[lethal dove]

That's rly good, surprised

[cyan adder]

It went really fast actually to France

The long delay was customs holding my package at the Paris airport for 3 days

[verbal folio]

has anyone here ordered a tofu redux 60 ? and live in the uk

[velvet egret]

They aren’t in stock sadly I’m refreshing their page multiple times a day

[fossil cloud]

https://kbdfans.com/collections/keycaps/products/pbtfans-doubleshot-wob?variant=41262149042315

I'm interested in getting the keycaps above. I see one compatibility issue with the LED Indicator Keycap specs where the lamp keycaps are compatible with south facing switches LED only but I want to get only the base keycaps. Would there be any issues with the keycaps and LEDs on the wooting 60 he here?

[bronze grove]

Our switches are designed to account for south facing keycaps. There should be no need to pull and rotate them.

[fossil cloud]

Are the switches also to designed to account for north facing keycaps as well? Or would you need to pull and rotate them in that case.
If I really had to pull and rotate them, I would but I prefer not to atm.

[bronze grove]

Huh? Switches are designed for north face by default, since that's what most people use.

However the housing has been modified slightly to ALSO allow for south facing.

So...both facing

[fossil cloud]

Oh sorry, I'm not really knowledgable in keyboards

But got it

🙂

[bronze grove]

The LEDs are north facing, so if you use south facing rotated switches or keycaps, you will have less LED brightness

[fossil cloud]

I see, no biggie for me

[sterile nest]

Hey just got the tofu redux, how bad is it that I didn't choose the brass weight plate as well, does it make difference if I chose not to use it?

[formal comet]

why is the housing even asymmetrical?

normal switches have the switch leaf there but since these don't have that...?

[bronze grove]

What?

[formal comet]

why are the north and south side of the switch housing not identical?

[bronze grove]

All switches are asymmetric

[fossil cloud]

All switches as in lekker, mechanical, etc?

[formal comet]

the lekker ones

[bronze grove]

All switches in general

[formal comet]

for normal (non-magnetic) ones they need a space to house the actual switch

but on the lekker switches that space is just empty

so it doesn't seem necessary to have?

[crimson sky]

I assume gateron just modified existing toolings

• left space for further modification

[formal comet]

that seems like the most reasonable explanation yes

[crimson sky]

for example they use a click leaf on a newer optical switch that you can drop in lekkers

[formal comet]

oh really

[crimson sky]

leaf is tiny though

[formal comet]

interesting

not that I have any interest in switches that make noise just to be obnoxious

ok I assume there is a club of people of people that have stabbed themselves with switch pins that I can join

[cyan adder]

i see them in stock?

every o ring is in stock at,

atm

Dang lube is starting to break in

Also the keyboard sounds way better with the Graveshift o ring xD idk why

the mushy u heard in the video

is non existent IRL

tbh

[velvet egret]

Oh I see your looking at their original website.. their shipping is as much as the product itself paying almost 40 euros for 3 o rings :/

[cyan adder]

its literally sounding like moleskin tape video

[cyan adder]

what counntry are u in

its fking thocky

god

[velvet egret]

Netherlands

[cyan adder]

oh

[marble shuttle]

Does it fit the case

[cyan adder]

well im france based

yes it fits perfectly

lemme show u

[velvet egret]

Ah how much was shipping for you?

[cyan adder]

its a pink one im using right now 35A

[cyan adder]

maybe 12euros

same as keebcats anyway

[velvet egret]

Mines 17 something

[velvet egret]

Seriously? Where can I see the shipping on keebcats?

[cyan adder]

Simulate an order

With other product

Or other o ring like the S sized

It’s really perfect for the redux case @marble shuttle

It’s a bit high profiled with the wooting foam (even 1 layer)

I receive my polyfill in 2 days anyway

[marble shuttle]

Thanks glad to see that so i can try in future maybe 16 dolar for shipping little bit sad

[cyan adder]

Ive only tried M size 30A and 35A for the moment

I wouldn’t bother trying the 50A since I prefer to avoid pulling the pcb out the case

[marble shuttle]

The current are you using medium right

[cyan adder]

Yes

Médium

[marble shuttle]

👍

[cyan adder]

Pink is 35A, yellow is 30A

[velvet egret]

Keebcats is cheaper for my so I guess I’ll be waiting for that to get back in stock

[cyan adder]

They said restock at the end of October xD

Still not ?

[velvet egret]

Is the colour of the o ring easily visible on the keyboard?

Nah not yet

I’m refreshing everyday

[cyan adder]

Nope

Not for me

I have a tofu redux btw

Yellow is a bit more visible than the pink one

[lunar sand]

Thanks for the heads up! 😄
One thing i did not understand ... will it be "mandatory" to select switches?

[sterile nest]

I just switched my case and some keys on the left sound different then others (not lubed yet)

[obsidian dagger]

i dont think it would

doesnt sound that way to me

[cyan adder]

@fluid ravine @harsh dove it started breakin in ! thocky asf bro u cant imagine\

[obsidian dagger]

has to be

kinda. after all why would they make a new pcb

[cyan adder]

its normal

[sterile nest]

Wdym? The q sound so different then k

[weary tree]

Did you use screws?

[sterile nest]

Yea

[cyan adder]

1 - U used most wasd and 1234 keys as gaming
2 - not the same keycaps so not the same sound
3 - tray mounted? the wasd keys are near holes for the screw

[weary tree]

Stiff ness not the same through th board

[sterile nest]

I reused the wooting screw and not the kbd ones

[weary tree]

If you want a more even sound try gummy oring mount or burger mount

[cyan adder]

@fluid ravine im so happy bro its not overlubed, just takes a little time to break in

[weary tree]

Cuz tray mount will make the board stiff

Yeah i like yo slightly overlube them and break in naturally

[cyan adder]

listen to that

my gaming keys are most breaked than others since i used them more btw

and imagine 0 mushiness sound irl

its fking creamy / thocky, orgasmic sound mate

[lethal dove]

That's tofu redux, oring and lube, any other mods too?

[cyan adder]

let me list

Okay so my actual mods :
Tofu Redux Gray + Brass Weight
PBT Keycaps Dyesub Japanese Gray Ceyment by Kbdfans
Lubbed switches with 205G0 (stem, bottom housing, springs bag lubbed with 105g0 oil)
Lubbed stabs with 205G0 (wires + housing)
Polycarbonate plate + stock plate foam
1 layers of blue masking tape behind the pcb
1 layer of stock case foam
Silicone dampener from kbdfans on the case standoffs
Spacebar Foam, poron, 1mm, left and right, not in the middle
Gummy O ring Mountedf from Graveshift, pcb held by friction only, 35A
Switches tape modding with gentle madical tape [2 layers] + lubed the tape
KBDFANS 65 percent deskmat
KBDFANS STANDOFF SILICONE COVER
Rubber tape pad that where included in the redux box

Left to do / currently in transit :
Testing keebtape
Testing « Thock films », pcb pads, plate pads from keebtape (in transit)
Use dielectric grease on stabs Wires (in transit)

switches taping literally changed my life

[lethal dove]

crazy haha, I feel lazy with my mod list in comparison O.o

[cyan adder]

i was too, but it was time to time, i modded a bit more everyday, tested alot

i would never imagine i would done so much mods when i received my wooting first

actually i might not use the keeptape, as im really happy with the masking tape atm

only 1 layer, i tried 5 layers its more poppier as pochizo said

my sound started to turn into a mix of creamy and thocky, even if i chased thock at first i went to prefer the creamy/thocky sound i got now

its reaaaaaalllly deeeep thock, if u want a real comparison or render of what it sounds irl its like the moleskin tape video on youtube

im wonderring how it will turn replacing my wooting foam for polyfill in 2 days

idk how many amount of polyfill i should put actually

forgot to say im using these also on the 2 standoffs that arent removaBLE

[lethal dove]

this is where I am at now, with bakeneko case, 50A o-ring and lubed/filmed switches

next mod on my list is swapping in my aluminum plate

[fallow hearth]

Hey, is the gummy o ring mount the "burger mount"?

[lethal dove]

no burger mount is small o rings on the scews, gummy o ring mount is a big o ring around the pcb

[cyan adder]

No, it’s this

I’ll listen to it in a min, let me eat my whopper first

[obsidian dagger]

are those succs real

[bronze grove]

Looks like IKEA plastic ones. A staple of any YouTube influencer or reviewer

[obsidian dagger]

:(

[lunar sand]

What’s the diameter for those big orings, 135mm?

And the thickness btw

[cyan adder]

very nice

u would need that switch tape mod bruh

also we can hear a big diff from the begenning of the recording and the end

[lethal dove]

OD around 185mm and thickness 3.5mm

[lethal dove]

I typed faster in the last 10 seconds

[lunar sand]

Thank you my friend !!!

I can get with 3.55

I guess it should work too

Right ?

[lethal dove]

Should he fine yeah, hardness should be somewhere between 30-60A depending how stiff you want it to be

[crimson sky]

lekker switches are hotswap by design

[ripe oriole]

are the stabs screw in or clip in?

[crimson sky]

on the regular wooting plate mount

on the module screw in

[bronze grove]

Well technically the module can do either.

[crimson sky]

well yea, all 3 even

[ripe oriole]

cool. ty guys

[untold wigeon]

how often do you have to relube switches

[fluid ravine]

Pretty sure I can imagine 🤪

[fluid ravine]

Thats good
I'm pretty sure once the lube breaks in
The pure solidness of your switches will come to life

Pretty sure if you want rhocc from then
You gotta depend on your other mods

I believe

[untold wigeon]

what size o ring did you get fo rthe graveshift one

[fluid ravine]

You dont

We only do it for some occasion

You don't have to or need to

[untold wigeon]

i lubed the bottom and top of my spring manually 2 months ago and yesterday I decided to reopen the swtich and I put the springs on my table exposed to air

and then I started touching them so much to assemble the switch again

I think that might have dried them out?

what are ur thoughts

[fluid ravine]

Compare it to your other switches
Does it sound odd?

[untold wigeon]

i did it with all my switches lol

[fluid ravine]

(°o°:)ᴼʰ

Well then-
I don't know what to tell you 😅

[untold wigeon]

they sound the same however I did film and add tripods and a pc plate to the module

[cyan adder]

M sized

[fluid ravine]

If you're still satisfied then just let it be

[untold wigeon]

I have a tofu 60redux which size should i get fr

[fluid ravine]

But if you're to skeptical then relube some parts like bottom housing stem rail and springs

[cyan adder]

Same, M sized is fine

[untold wigeon]

the yellow one?

[fluid ravine]

Ye

[cyan adder]

And hardness depends on your liking

It’s personal taste

[untold wigeon]

whats hardness and size

[fluid ravine]

Feel**

😙

[untold wigeon]

I want thock

[cyan adder]

Your thock won’t come from only 1 mod

It’s a hard work 😂😂😂

[fluid ravine]

Like me :>

[cyan adder]

Or me :>

Ahahah

[fluid ravine]

Lol

[cyan adder]

Switch tape mod will really helps you about the thocc

[untold wigeon]

I lubed, filmed, added tripods, PC plate, burger mount and polyethlene foam to the module

[cyan adder]

But you gotta have the dedication bro

There is no module yet

Maybe u speaking about 60he pcb

[untold wigeon]

yeah

that

do the 30A o rings help most with thokc

40a look better ngl

[cyan adder]

It should make the sound profile more even

[fluid ravine]

Was one point where tirade said "do you need help?"
And I said yes, I need major help

[cyan adder]

And also it will be held only by friction so no more weird sound around screws

[fluid ravine]

It does not provide thocc or clack or whatever you think

[untold wigeon]

what does it do then

[fluid ravine]

The effects of gummy oring balances out the sound profile throughout the board

[cyan adder]

Tirade helped alot too

[untold wigeon]

oh alr

[fluid ravine]

And it gives a bouncier feel (not flex)

[cyan adder]

Well actually it’s more true with polyfill

[untold wigeon]

30a or 40a?

[cyan adder]

I tested the 30A without polyfill, it’s a little bit bouncy but not as much as u showed in ur videos

Will probably be whenever I receive my polyfill

[fluid ravine]

Well saying from "tray mount" then yeah it is

[cyan adder]

1000%

[fluid ravine]

This bro

Gyaat

[cyan adder]

Biiig

[fluid ravine]

😂😂

[untold wigeon]

cajn what size do u recommend

[cyan adder]

Idk how does your keyboard sounds so good besides mine

Since u only have polyfill and pcb pads that I don’t

[untold wigeon]

this is how mine sounds

[cyan adder]

Told you, M size, hardness is your choice

[untold wigeon]

alkr

[cyan adder]

Im feeling good with 30A-35A both of them

[untold wigeon]

35a then i dont like yellow

[cyan adder]

Also don’t expect any sounding close to me or tenz if u don’t do the switch tape mod

[fluid ravine]

My first goal was specifically get a good thocc or clack>thocc>then the rest of the journey was to make it sound solid as much as possible other than the chatter and rattly clack

[cyan adder]

Xd u won’t see the color of it 😂😂😂

[fluid ravine]

Cus once you make the board sound solid as hell
Then you can go and make it sound thocc or clack

[cyan adder]

It has been the contrary for me

Ive found a thocky/creamy profile that I like

But it’s not solid yet

[fluid ravine]

This shit went on from February

It gets closer and closer

But farther and farther

[cyan adder]

Also I’ve noticed why my sounding seems so different on record. It’s because I’m holding my camera when filming and I’m not letting it down at one position. So sometimes my camera is close to keyboard, sometimes it’s far xD

[cyan adder]

Exactly

The biggest jump were from no switch tape to switch tape for me

[fluid ravine]

Honestly
Id say it's for everybody that has done it

I'm honestly so glad I got it to expand to the community

But it feels weird to advertise it
So Pochizo did it instead

:)

[velvet egret]

#ad :0

[cyan adder]

Anyway even if he made a video

[fluid ravine]

Props to gewalt
He made it

I just got a chance to go in depth

[cyan adder]

Only ppl doing it will experience the struggle xD. When u cut a little too short, a little too long, when it doesn’t fit the housing, when u ending with ur cissors full of little short tape ect… xD

[fluid ravine]

Haha

[velvet egret]

We are all here together. So why not help each other achieve the sound they are looking for in a phenomal board

[fluid ravine]

Worth the struggle for me

[cyan adder]

At least I got a good angled tweezer it really helped

Now the thing is if I wanna go 3 layers one day I would have to re open it all one by one 😂😂😂😂

[fluid ravine]

@shell geode we love you!
Thanks for the mod mate. Mb should've asked you for the mod name but i had to think of something quickly sooo 😅

[mental hemlock]

It's time.

[fluid ravine]

It's time.

[mental hemlock]

what did you do with Gewalt?

[fluid ravine]

I killed him-

With emotions

🤪

And my dumbness

And told him about the news of tirade

fake news

:)

Anyways I setup tv
Love you 🤟

[mental hemlock]

what even happened lol

Tell me, just woke up

I love you.

[cyan adder]

Love these keycaps

I wouldn’t think about changing them in the future

But you have to know they looks a lot darker irl

[mental hemlock]

where did you get them from?

[cyan adder]

Kbdfans

If you’re in the EU u can also get them from eloquentclicks

But they sell it 50€ instead of 30usd from kbd

Best option is probably aliexpress kbdfans store

[untold wigeon]

what are these called

[hollow sand]

anyone recieved the alumaze yet?

[cyan adder]

Pbt Ceyment grey Japanese by kbdfans

[cyan adder]

^

[mental hemlock]

aliexpress seems like the play

[fluid ravine]

always the play 😂
