oh dont start
whats your main ?

and mousepad ?
artisan hyate otsu xsoft xl
Name every mousepad.
also got a hien
Raiden mid for me
Not a mousepad enthusiast smh
i almost bought a raiden recently
but ended up jumping to glass
we got the orange and the brown ones in
by locally i mean literally i can walk to it
same but they're only cheap if you just buy once otherwise its cheaper to buy from japan
Only real fans would know
ye i dont like to replace mousepad a lot
i started my mouse rabbithole with modded g305s once my g403 scroll wheel started to fuck up
i didnt know shit back then and i thought small mouse better
but that shit with a triple A was lasting 3 months on a charge
absolutely legendary mouse
my rabbit hole started with zowie ec1 and fk2
before that i was kinda indifferent
i think dhl ip banned me the site wont refresh anymore
wait no
HOLY
ITS ACTUALLY COMING

which colour ?
i waited 3 months for a tofu60redux+weight from keygem and i cancelled cuz of patience
black
palm grip king
i have that set
or white
got it when i bought my tofu a while back
i have 2 of those sets
What
Yea i know that
his iq matches a 6 year old
also we need take control keycaps in black and red
i'd buy that shit instantly as i like red accents
wob 
We need control keycaps but also it's just og beige

if i buy the module and the L45s, i'll legit have 2 wootings
please ban my account from doing such actions
i dont need a 5th keyboard
Only a 5th?
how many do u have
i love your pictures
bro
what do you use to edit?
thanks
ACR and photoshop
ACR?
adobe camera raw
Release pcb module iam bored
😡
Nah, just buy the whole keyboard and make life ezy
the whole keyboard does not allow for pcb mounted/snap in stabs
Way too complicated
Unlucky
That’s…
it's a work of art is what it is
Where's your Wooting? I wanna see
The coiled cable is supposed to come today
😂
nice case
thanks 🙂
G R E G
I'm old greeeeeg
Guys if you didn't see it yet.
Gonna get some F Key sets (4 keys) $22 after tax
$36% off
The ones with the rock texture from Salvation look pretty good
with the lighting, that looks like a render haha. clean setup ;)
thanks 
wait thats not rendered?
nope just a photo
oh shit ok
i just have really nice soft lighting at my desk
that price
even with sale, 386 for tkl
and raden shell full set is fucking $924
$1186 without sale
because they gotta send it off to some other place for both lacquer and raden shell, both multiply the price
Ebin
gmk greg is so good
It's a fun set but I curse the guy on Ebay who must've hoarded all the novelties, I can't find them anywhere. I think I'll just have make my own like this one I saw
wdym, just buy 3 sets 
I have keycaps gathering cobwebs but no exciting colours
well that is kinda on you for buying them lol
lol rip
Pcb module or riot
🤣
lol cool AI image generation 😄 i guess 😄
I think i found Mansen his keyboard @bronze grove https://twitter.com/JakeSucky/status/1724574480973049933
See? Keycap blind bags, and they sold out, I tell ya, tis a great idea for UwU's collectible keycaps 
good afternoon boys and girls
any recommendations for custom keycaps in europe? found only those 2 guys called RnG from France, any reliable similar shops?
I want to get lighter switches and I'm considering GATERON KS-20 or the Lekker L45's? Anyone have any experience or thoughts on these switches?
the l45s are lighter by 5cN or so
i just got the L45's, i havent used them too much. but so far theyve been really nice
I like my l45’s FWIW
had them for a couple months now. Super responsive with the .1mm actuation pretty crazy.
How is the prelube? I really don't like the idea of having to open the switches to hand lube since I'm afraid I might mess something up
yep, i was kinda worried for accidental activation with how light they are, but thats not been an issue
Are they similar to huntsman switches? I liked the responsiveness of huntsman switches so I was thinking they'd be similar
our switch has 2 parts excluding the housing. 1 of those parts is the stem and the other is the spring. cant really mess that up
The lube job on mine was slightly better than my year old stock l60’s
But I still will lube them at some point. It’s not incredible or anything
Okay cool, did you do any other mods while you were at it?
the huntsman uses razer opticals which are heavier than our l60 by 10cN across the press
I mean a 45g spring and .1mm actuation with rapid trigger is about as responsive D one could ask for lol
l60 bottoms out at 60cN and the razer opticals at 70 as far as im aware
Yeah I have aluminum case and keycaps but haven’t gone crazy yet. Waiting for module drop to lube switches and stabs and swap to pc plate and update case fill
I'm very new to modding so some of these terms arew unfamilar, what is a module drop and stabs?
My plan is tofu redux, poly fill, PC plate, no plate foam, switch tape mod, lube switches, bag lube springs, grease, balance and lube stabs/wire.
Stabs = stabilizers
Module drop is when the module is released.
The module is the PCB with screw In Stabs and PC plate.
Oh is there going to be a new module from wooting?
the first module. its just the PCBA without case, switches, keycaps
so you only get the PCB, Topplate and Stabs
we get pcb mount stabs with it? well that helps ig
im prob still gonna get tx stabs however
the pcb is 1.6 right?
I'm planning on getting this case too, and I saw people say that no plate foam is better, but could you tell me why?
Sound
Just preference
The PC plate comes with silicone pad or a foam for the plate
Can try all three and see what you prefer
I haven’t taken apart my current Wooting to try it without stock plate foam tho
Also the cord, as I’ve been told. And the plate foam/pad?
Guess we’ll know for sure soon enough 🤞👍
yes ofc you get a cable and a material between pcb and plate
is the wooting pcb 1.2 or 1.6 btw
69.420
👍
i dont actually know though and idk if anyone who knows for sure is online
if its 1.2 just cut some of the old pcb off and make it 1.6 ez
Any youtube vid recommendations for people who are showing the process of them modding the wooting? I want to make sure ik everything before doing it
Wooting channel has many quality mod videos
Bad seed tech has a good one
ok bet thanks guys
just wondering - is there a reason the foam that comes with the PC switch plate doesn't have foam around the spacebar? It looks like the old foam that was with my steel switch plate does
This is because what you are buying is the 60HE module's PC plate and the foam to match.
And the Module PCB required a slight redesign of the foam placement.
You can reuse the existing foam if you'd prefer
For the Tofu Redux Case, is it fine to directly just use the foam that is already attached to the PC plate without having to buy the brass weight add on?
I don't really get the point of that weight
There's 2 type of foam placements
Case foam and Plate foam
The ones that comes with the PC plate kit are silicone and poron plate foam.
Case foam goes into the case
Which will decrease hollowness from the case
The brass weight is just to increase weight lol
"More premium"
huh okay makes sense, so does the stock wooting already have the case foam as well as the plate foam?
and can i used that case foam with the tofu redux?
u can but I took off the smaller foam layer since it’s thick af
Yes
okay cool sounds good ty!
Just wanted to tell you, your photos are inspiring , love your work! (Also peeped insta lol)
I see this bit of plastic sticking out, should I be concerned?
Is it like some plastic film?
yea
Ya
Pcb coating
I'm pretty sure
Mines hella ripped
my pcb bended so bad because of pc plate in out in out trying mods
anyway pcb module or riot
ah kk
@fluid ravine @quiet bay still waiting for my gummy oring
M2K so inspiring. I neeeez that
thanks its super appreciated 
What do yall think of these keycaps?
https://www.amazon.com/MOLGRIA-Keycaps-Keyboard-Sublimation-Japanese/dp/B09MK4N4FN/ref=asc_df_B09K4ZJXFR/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=658002882642&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=9210198290217181341&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9026810&hvtargid=pla-1620351377439&th=1
I bought the gh60 low profile case for my 60he and i was wondering if its worth it to buy some low profile keycaps with it
should I? If yes, why?
If you're bundling the case with keycaps and want to save shipping, then sure. But otherwise you probably won't feel much difference given how low the GH60 already sits.
No such thing as low profile keycaps with regular switches.
You'd just end up with weird mushroom like switches.
thanks!
I wont buy them as I dont think they look good at all
I just was wondering if they could have affected the feeling of the keyboard
For the price you'd be pretty happy and you can always exchange if Amazon allows it
For the price? Is there an advantage to other keycaps that are more expensive? I thought keycaps were just for looks
There's difference in quality and material(ABS vs PBT) as well as profile height
What are the best type of keycaps for wooting? I want performance and to make sure they are compatible
performance is the same
No such thing as best, it's all personal preference. Cherry or OEM profile is the most common and PBT material won't shine like ABS. Those keycaps you posted should be fine
ok bet! thank you
You can always try something else later on in the future. I used to the stock keycaps for quite a while, I think those are very good especially if you like RGB
Your "low profile" keycaps are going to sit like the head of a mushroom on top of the stem.
I think because the stem connects to the top of the key, they will all sit roughly even to eachother, the additional height just sinks into the keyboard
The difference is in the sculpting, either you get curved like OEM or Cherry or flat like DSA or XDA
On the sculpted sets though, the mounting cross is different heights isn't it?
It has to be otherwise it wouldn't have the height difference needed to create the sloping
The bottom of them? No.
and I can clearly see a difference between the height of sculpted vs flats
Why do they end up different heights then?
The top of the switch is still going to be on the same spot regardless.
But the top of the key is what sets the profile.
You said you wanted low profile keycaps.
Where are you going to put the switch stem? 😄
Nothing low profile about those. That's just... normal profile.
Well they are marginally lower, and only on certain rows 😰
Do your research first
It'd a matter of preference, but obv 60he is low already like someone said so no need to go even lower, although you could try if you wanted to
Problem is finding G20 and DSA sets, not super common
Compatible with low profile Gateron MX mechanical switch and low profile Keychron Optical switch , this low profile full set keycap set features double-shot legends for added durability while providing an instant aesthetic upgrade that also offers excellent functionality for your setup. This Keychron low profile full set keycap set has all the k...
Like you said requires low profile switches
Indeed.
signature plastics makes DSA keycaps
Low profile O ring keycap mod?????
@fluid ravine
Put them in between the cap and stem???
Oh my bad I was looking for your reply but didn’t see it
Thanks tho
Np
Is gummy o ring mount (friction mount ) better sounding that burger mount ? Anyone? Pls
I don't think it does make a difference to sound (compared to burger mount), but I think it will help it sound more consistent all around
Ive heard that with burger it doesnt sound the same all around the board specially around where the screws are
But i wanted a second opinion Thank you
just get gummy o ring it makes ur life easier
Thank you
I can't fucking wait. I'm sick of burger mount.
Thanks bro
Should bakeneko 30A be fine ?
^
30A and 50A are the best and most common
send me one to my address too, saves us time
Forget any kind of mounting and just use the pcb as is. A few caps and you’re good to go. Modding is crazy talk
ill help u
M for medium! These are standard sized to fit most 65% keyboards as well as some 60%. PLEASE READ THE CHART BELOW FIRST! There is also a chart for you to see if your board is on our checked list. If it is not on our chart, we do not recommend buying it, and you are buying at your own risk. If you are located in Canada,
My o-ring is still in the box lol
Thank you!
So you recommend the 50A the most out of the two?
What tape do I use for tape mod?
how does switch tape mod work?
For PCB Tape mod or switch tape mod?
Pcb
Switch tape mod explained here
Painters tape.
Thank cuh
Normal tape mod is explained in #🪛│modding_faq
This tape is for switch tape mod, Not PCB tape mod
For that, there are multiple types of tape you can use
For example I use Moleskin
Okay so painters tape for pcb
what degree is the stock 60he
"no need to lower" i dont get this
Normally use Painters or Masking tape
other tapes are fine
but the ones you want to avoid are really thick tape or ones with alot of residue
if i wanna play w a really low degree angled keyboard its preference
30A and 50A
Day #34 of asking, where the module?
wait a until day 35
🧢
day 34 is in parts
Why not just buy the Wooting and take the PCB out. And boom! Module in your hands
This would work for a pcb tape mod yes?
@quiet bay proof of the multiverse
i dunno
🤔
but seems like it would
i feel like this is just painter's tape
but called artist tape
Alr
I think it is
@loud zephyr cause i don't want to pay extra for parts I won't use. I'm just doing the days thing to keep myself entertained lol
im not sure bro I think u need tape not a roomba
Pretty surprised I was on point with the #'s
indeed
Days were off, but like the spirit was there
Stock Wooting ftw. Module could be delayed... forever
It better not be a roomba 😂
I don’t have my keyboard 🥲🥲🥲
The Wooting cable kit could be mistaken for a family heirloom
😂😂😂😂
The wooting 60he will die with me in my grave.
I aint passing it down to anyone
wait back to the earlier topic, are low profile keycaps compatible with the l45? cause i might be down to go low profile
same
Yes
oh hell yes
any recommendation for keycaps?
but anyone got any japanese themed keycaps that are low profile?
damn im struggling trying to find tape that would stick on polycarbonate
day #35 of asking where is the module
I know, that's why I said you don't need to. It's already low, I wasn't sure why you were asking.
I know this isn’t about a Wooting nor a keyboard but Can anyone recommend me any SSD Nvme thats fast for gaming? I was going for a Samsung 990 Pro
But im not sure
I use the non-pro version and it's fast. I've thought about upgrading but doesn't seem like the difference would be worth it just for gaming, and day to day use
that's good
980 black
too
just got a new rig built and used a 4TB Lexar NM790 M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4
they are 200 bucks and run 6-8gb/sec with TLC so high reliability cycle count, hard to beat for the price
and i can barely tell the difference from my old raid sata SSDs which are much slower.
I have a gen 4 for windows and a gen 3 for games
I have an old 950 Evo, non SSD, and it's as fast as it needs to be. The newer gen, especially when you get into m.2 is overkill. You're not gonna suffer speeds no matter what you pick. Probably safer getting the cheaper 980 non pro
unless you have some specific need for the additional bandwidth but for standard gaming, no
exactly
Diminishing returns
alumaze vs tofu 60 redux? I'm leaning towards the redux atm mainly cause of the 100$ price tag on the alumaze
if the price was the same which one do you like the look of more ?
would be nice to keep the strap of course, but im not paying nearly twice the price to still have the strap
thats my real only gripe with not getting the alumaze is no strap 😦
i run the alumaze without the strap since its one less thing i need getting in the way on the desk
Hahaha i feel that, my desk is a warzone atm so i didn't even consider it
going from this to a 60% keyboard im planning on having a lot more desk space strap or no strap lmao
true true
Thank you so much for your time and answering my question it helped me thx to @polar girder @elder dune
And @mental hemlock aswell
@loud zephyr and you too!
yeah its very rare where that speed is actually useful. latency and transfer speed from sata is already good enough for most situations indeed! TLDR: buy the cheapest, reliable drive with the storage you need
yes
YES
well there's no really correct one, if I had the money I would choose both the 30A and 50A ones just to see which one of them I like better
Oh okay allright Thank you both ill take this one then @harsh dove @mental hemlock
Well, you just wanna make sure you get the correct size mainly, which M is.
I think this ones are M @mental hemlock sent me the link
Yes, they are
Thanks !
did you order?
Checking in with the module. Any new updates? I believe it was delayed until late this month or so?
it's the nitro one lol
lol
send me the one you're using again cause I lost it
unfortunate
does the switch tape mod affect the sensors on the wooting ?
i mainly bought the keyboard for the precision and its rapid trigger function
it sounds really good but i want to make sure it doesn’t affect anything
They Said mid november still no update for module
brother chill out 😭
Nope i will contunie until they put on site for preorder
seek help man
Whats a popular brand for good custom keycaps ? (Like manga or games theme)
i only know of higround that does those kind of things but i think you gotta buy the whole keyboard
also quality is lackluster
and will always be lackluster 
cause basically nobody that does 5 side dyesub is interested in spending money and cutting margins to make a better quality product
Hello, someone know where can i bout pbt keycaps azerty black with white accent ? For 60he
My best guess would be Corsair or Razer's offerings.
If you know of a white plastic case with a similar angle to the 60he basic case, please let me know.
if you cant find something could always paint the case
I've thought about painting, but it's broken


Seen people posting about o rings coming with the alumaze, how do you use them
What does the module do that’s different from buying stock wooting then modding?
It has support for PCB screw in stabs.
And if you already plan to get a different case, it lets you pick between L45 and L60 switches, since you'll be buying them separately, instead of L60 being preinstalled like on the standard 60HE
Thanks! 🙏
Is it possible to change the springs on the switches?
The only difference between L45 and L60 is the springs right?
Could you install even stiffer springs on the L60 to make something like an L80? Or is that something that needs to be done in manufacturing
Cause I am getting Ceramic keycaps that are heavier and I am worried that the springs cannot support their weight
Not that it won't work just thinking about from a gaming perspective, if the keys cannot rise fast enough
What I read the 1u keys work fine but the larger keys can be problematic
No it doesn’t , just make sure you do it right.
you speak as if u did it right
Well if you knew me, you’d know that everything I do, I do right
So there’s that
Luigi
ye ik
Nope
do you guys know if OEM keycaps will work on the wooting two he ?
Considering we use OEM keycaps... yes 😄
(Cherry too...or anything really)
ohhh i got cherry on right now, idk why but i was sure that was the only think that waas able to fit on it, thanks a lot this gives me atleast 20 more options to maybe pick from if they are possible
@crimson sky Here ya go bud, flush brass. Made both versions so it's flush or raised, can also see different surface finishing options. This is final fit/test 3d print and tomorrow or monday depending on machine availbility we make the first aluminium slimline case (15mm) for the W2HE 😄
@pale aspen ^^^
Welp, any stab recommendations? 
Looks nice
do you consider make normal profile version?
hidden switch
THank you 🙂 can't wait to get the aluminium in my hands soon
I think the point of the kne right now is to carry over the plate
Otherwise it's prob easier to modify a wasd alu case
ah
You mean more like the original case? We can do this but first need to produce these if the demand is there, we will do it. What do you mean by hidden switch?
becuase now it use intregated plate
One that covers the switches as well
Random example image, but a case that covers the switches
Would need to be 2 part
AH! Understood. For now we make it using standard/stock plate. If the demand is there we can look at cutting our own top plates, making it taller so switch is hidden etc. We can use thicker aluminium top plate to do this, with slight change to case design. This can be later designs, for now most people seem to want just normal case for the base.

Just make it a 2 part case
Use a reg 1.5mm alu plate
And screw that to the top/bottom
Hmmmm true it is flat so we could add this/option it....
Well would need quite a bit of changes
If you wanna make that an "option" i would just start from scratch
Yeah I think this can be next version. For now we go for more cost effective. A case this big 2 part gets expensive.
agreed! you understand :L)
if TKL existed, this would make more sense
Tkl is similarly expensive
Also needs the 2 pieces
Smaller material stock and machine times at least
would buy in heartbeat 
basically, to make it worthwhile we need 10-20 pieces. so for mass market I am trying to target retail around $180-250~ and for max options/etc up to 300~. This case we can do a few versions to make it fit this budget.
For two part yeah as you said it gets crazy expensive and not sure if enough people to make it worth it. TKL similar. But TKL might be possible we can 5axis. THis case is 3 axis, our 5 axis is 40cm from memory
How’d you manage that?
we have to wait and see. Wooting might make their own case and then there isn't much point in us doing it. They don't have time at the moment to do W2HE case for the demand so in this case it makes sense for us
But if they like it they will stock it in their store so easy for you to get.
No clue lol
I would not hold my breath for a 2HE case from us.
Is there case company for the wooting 60 that also sells cases for numpads with same case design and colour like Zoom Pad?
Get some TX AP Plate Mount stabs I guess they’re like $12-20
I was meaning for TKL sorry
Yes but if/when you do haha
Time will tell I suppose. But do keep in mind that our 60% case isn't just for our own keyboards.
Ahhh didn't realise that! I guess 60% designs are a little more standardised, the full size stuff seems all over the place.
Did you happen to see that duck keyboard video I sent?
Of the duck keyboard? I've uhh... yeah it's been sent to me many a time.
Yep yep.
Old duck sound from Mac OS...7? and keycaps from Duckkeys.
Haha yep
Love how much this channel is growing. keyboard_modding > other channels
tirades digital child is growing up
did you get module goat
Negative. I'm not any more special than you guys. I'm still waiting as well lol.
I DO have a new keyboard coming today though that I did a group buy on earlier in the year so Ive got something I can tinker with until the module comes
Love you brother
Yeah I wanna buy the module just to tinker some more and give me a reason to buy another set of keycaps
I had that talk with my gf and she said I can't bring the wooting to my grave 
Day #35 of asking if the module is out yet
We're delaying it by 25 hours for every post like this.

By that math, this guy has delayed the module by 875 hours

So its his fault...
@fluid ravine are you using 30A On your board?
Yay my original home could never do that
how many child's does bro have
Prob all of us in this channel 
Papa!!
Looking forward to some keyboard modding this weekend
Anyone got a link to some good quality blank black keycaps? Not sure what material to go with, would appreciate any insight. Thanks 😊
@mental hemlock
I'm planning on getting nicepbt white blanks
Petty sure criminal Said he had the blank pbts from Amazon, not sure if there would be any better "premium" options though
Also quite unsure if pbt would be the best type or not
It's time.
Show me what you see.
https://www.amazon.com.au/Profile-Keycaps-Switches-Mechanical-Keyboard/dp/B06XKFPYZB
Ur running these ones right?
yessirrrrrr
Why not?
NO
NO
NO
NO
NO
I HAVE THE CHERRY PROFILE ONES
She called me materialistic for it 
But like....It's wooting!!!
and wooting is an exception c:
they're from amazon
but I'll look at those
Get some double shot PBT
why would blanks be doubleshot
Idk I wasn’t referring to that, just referring to what material to get cause he was asking.
Didn't even know that was a thing lol, gotta do some more research
Yeah from what I've heard pbt is better than abs
a blank abs would get ruined so quickly lol
But is doubleshot pbt even better?
I mean
It’s personal preference really
ABS just shines after heavy use
But feel more premium to me
Yes.
I got this Rn what are these?
Back lit white keycaps
Pbt or abs?
lol it really just comes down to durability and feel of the keys
You can’t tell the difference in a photo
I hear you
doesnt abs technically have more vibrant color variety tho?
colors that pbt cant really do that is
Might go for double shot pbt, if these are doubleshot abs might asw3ll try something different
I’d honestly recommend PBT for your first set
Once you get into it more and learn more then you can decide if you want some abs
abs spacebar>pbt spacebar
Alright sounds like a plan, thanks for the help dude
np
Actually ehich is typically better normal PBT or PBT doubleshot ?
or just buy blank keycaps
Yeah I'm goanna go for blank black ones anyway
Yeah regular PBT is just as durable as double shot PBT
Double shot is just better for the legends
Especially back lit
I'm getting these
Cherry profile
1.7mm thickness (thicc Bois)
PBT
$35 as well
Mad nice
Some of the CannonKeys stuff is really nice. Let us know how you like them
i hope u paint ur case white too
I love you.
Alr!
Not wooting related but this just got delivered
Noicee
Ok omw hom3 now
I wanna buy another keycap set but idk what yet
What is it
I love u 2
oh i thought u still use the stock 60he case
Damn wish they had these in black, exactly what I'm looking for
a
No
Gh60 tofu v1 clone
Tirade gifted me it :)
i was abt to say who dares to ping me but its u
That is so beautiful.
split right shift they knew what they were doing
someone cooked here
Was thinking of that
But I was like nah
What something new other black
atleast they THICC
THEY THICC THICC
20 pounds of polyfill is crazy
How do I estimate how much polyfil I put in the case lol seems like I put too little or too much
@stray tiger
Still doing my research in my poly fill
I went back to stock foam
For now
@fluid ravine do I truly need this stuff
🤣
I also have moleskin tape in the cart but too far down
4 of the items is for keyboard
I can probably use polyfill and dampener for other stuff
the reinforcement place is for my monitor arm because it's eating away my desk >:V
curse you cheap ikea tabletop!
does some1 know where to find pages that produce custom keycaps ?
Put in enough to fill the enclosure but not so much that it needs to be compressed significantly when you install the PCB. Its not an exact science.
I believe Goblin Techkeys makes custom keycaps
Thanks @stray tiger :) just saw the change in modding faq ❤️
ty
Replace that $14 gpl 105 with some $4-6 super lube oil
Waste of money
And you don’t need 25 sqft of kilmat dude
so this
Nah
y?
Dr. Scholl's Moleskin Padding... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007W9MGLI?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Save money
That’s why
I’m here to help
hmm
And the scholls one comes in a wider roll
So you can just cut one clean layer
Rather than multiple strips of it
blood of the innocent
I've head burger mounting and tape mod don't really make the wooting sound too different, can anyone confirm?
how tf the moleskin be absorbing that much light dangg
Lmao
It does change the sound tbh
hm ok
I love having a shit ton of something to feel safe
Want me to write a paragraph?
it doesn't change how it feels when you press though right?
yes i will read it
knowing that I'll never run out of it c:
the more info the better
It’s a culmination of mods that really change the sound profile altogether @rough quest
It takes multiple mod combinations to usually find the sound you’re looking for @rough quest
hmm okay fair enough
Actually ima decide if I want to or not
I’m not home rn so
lmao ok all good
Sry
you're good
Deleted the other photos, that lighting made it look red tinged
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
But the ones in the modding faq summarize what they do
Your best bet is to just watch multiple videos of different mods , #🪛│modding_faq has some sources/links for a good place to start @rough quest
DAMNN
okay i'll do that
What sound are you looking for out of this one? 👀
It’s bootifool 
It came with an aluminum plate and I bought an extra polypropylene plate so I can try a few things. Solder PCB only so I'll probably only try one or 2 configs. I did get an extra PCB too though
Is that a Derivative? 
I’m the same way so I don’t blame you, just tryna help ya save a lil bit of money fam
ik ik u already saved me money on the moleskin and lube xd
Haha glad I could assist
Yes. Might go this direction - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e22YU_pAGjw&t=78s
ur like the community financial advisor 😂
lol well as much as I like spending money, I like saving it too
Also partially influenced by Tirade
He likes to save as well
do as i say not as i do type guy @harsh dove
Basically
now do the thing where u buy another G8 and stack it 🗿
easiest way to save is not to mod
Yea pretty much but there’s a lot of cheap mods you can do
too late
And that's another 25 hours added to the release date.
Day #36.1 of waiting for the 60HE module
I wanna redo all my switches tape mod
Any differences between 1 layer of foam medical tape and 3 layers of gentle medical tape ?
Oh God you're actually becomibg me 🥲
Which one sounds better
I wanna do it clean, all evenly
No idea, you're gonna have to test that for urself xd
just do it to like 2 switches
and then compare it to the gentle medical tape
I don’t wanna buy both
Im using another medical tape which is close to the gentle paper
I just took whatever was in my hospital ahah
But we don’t have medical foam than is thin enough to fit the switches
Very nice! I think I'll turn the internet off when the extras go live. So tempting.
We’re at a 900 hr delay now because of that guy
well at least im not looking forward to getting the module
but criminal however...
Now you know what to do...
put that baby in and slide us a sound test 
Damn bro congrats
ballin
is there a case like the Freebird60 but cheaper?
i think you should give one to criminal :>
I’ll give him the one I don’t like
Anything?
Anything.
Tofu redux without the brass weight insert would be cheaper. The typing angle is different though.
What state do you even live in
Case arrived. FR4 plate too. Sounds alright with the included poron and 4 layers of tape. Upstroke sounds dookie but I’m not about to do the medical tape mod, way too much time lol.
Florida lol
Well hopefully the 40a feels good
If not I may just buy the 30a that got restocked the day after I bought it

Nah I’m serious
dude, thank you. I don't even know what to say.
w
It's not about your words but your actions
And since you said you would do anything

Yeah, another friend is having me ship him pumpkin spice Oreos to the Netherlands because he can’t get them there
think about it though
it doesnt matter, you're friction mounting it
its not like you're going to get the actual gasket performance of gummy oring keyboards
I'm excited to put it in and see
Does someone know a case similar to the kraken 1?
even though you dont cus you know
Yeah the only way the durometer would make a significant difference is if you modify the PCB for a proper gummy O ring mount. The difference would likely be negligible in a friction mounted setup.
yeah
we got one person that drill the pcb
@fluid ravine Hey any idea if these are compatable? Tried following the guidelines but lttle confused
In the grayish black colourway ^
yeah
Should be fine? The lekker switches use a standard MX stem
Kit looks like it has the right spacebar and the right 1.25U keys for the bottom row.
this shit is hard to fit
I'm guessing the foam between PCB and the plate has to go huh
thefoam
needs to compress over time
so it can fit
silicone is a nono
Damn ok cuz it ain't fitting so far
just push it in
or you could have the oring sit around the module for a littile
Ultimately if I push it in one side just pops back up
no no no
wrong
you dont push the module INTO the case
you want the oring to fit INTO the module so you can insert the module in
Ive tried both pushing the oring in between the case and PCB and pushing it in my case
Lmao
It's mad loose
@crimson sky @pale aspen testing fit. MInor issue on top cover at front and a few screws I will adjust 1mm/0.5mm here and there for perfect alignment. Heavier than stock already haha! The adjustable feet are far grippier than stock rubber. In fact, I don't even have the front ones installed, just rear and it's more planted than stock. The sound is bit more muted too less higher frequency. Has stock poron and stock USB-C plug wire too.
Hopefully tomorrow our 3 axis is free and we can mill the real deal, if not, Monday.
Thats looking great man. Nice work
Hey thank you 🙂 Feel like a kid at christmas waiting for our main cnc machine to not be used to mill plastic all week lol
@polar girder didnt take too long to get back to 5k
Damn bruv. GG’s
well i put it in
just shoved in every corner
every spot
didnt want to be rough with it
but i guess its required
yep
yep
Does tachyon Mode lowers brightness yes or yes? Or is there an option?
Is it safe to do that?
If you use the stock cable or our coiled cable, 100% brightness is fine
Third party cables ---may experience issues with random inputs if brightness is above the 70% softlock
Is 50A too stiff? Should i go for lower?
its not "too stiff"
but it doesnt matter
Okay thanks alot my dude!
again you're friction mounting
What do you recommend
dont got one now i think about it
but for me in the future if i were to do something that has to do with drilling the pcb
then im going for 30a
have you tested USB hubs with tachyon?
cus i like soft typing feel
@normal schooner is there any time frame on when poly carb plate is coming for other than ansi?
i got the ansi one but several keys are obviously not working because of different layout but i think sound is still lowkey worth
bruh literally ordered after me and have received before me
i ordered on october 28 rip
idk bro seems like my package is lost xd
idk
i contacted the seller
he gives 0 supports, told me to wait until i received it lol it hasnt moved or getting updated in tracking since 1 week
Also for anyone curious, moleskin does NOT leave residue on your PCB at all
but get me updated if u try the keeptape
Where is it now?
bruh it was in customs for 2 weeks already
now its out of customs but sitting there not moving since 1 week
idk
no luck, for once
customs will get busier getting closer to December so it's not unusual.
Does someone know a case similar to the kraken keyboard ?
Sound tessttttttt
Already there
Do you have a post in #1070668460905988106 ?
Yeah
And you will tell me bro, which one you find more thockier, moleskin vs keeptape
Because you know in recording it’s not 100% accurate close to reality so
I trust your irl feel
All the shitty ones
Lol
Damn great setup, hows that 7800x3d doing on tarkov
You must get like 1000+ fps lol
what lube is good for 60he
Rn I got uh
Alumaze60 Just Black
GMK Sumi Keycaps
PC Plate w/ Silicone Layer
Burger Mount
KeebTape
Alumaze Foam
TX AP Stabs w/ Dielectric Grease
Everything lubed of course w/ 205g0
And museum putty under my spacebar
Niceeeee
205g0 for the switches
Thanks bro!
And yeah the 7800x3d is great for gaming
@harsh dove does the putty make things sound a lot better
IMO yes
Im thinking of switching to amd next!
Like 30-40% better
Depends how much your spacebar annoys you ig
My does rn cause I don’t have a mousepad under it
But I have one on the way
A felt pad
for me the spacebar hasnt been annoying tbh
even on a bare desk
does it make it feel slow on the rebound with the added weight ?
Irl I guess mines not bad, but on recordings I hate it
Not if you don’t add too much
If you do then yes you’ll feel it
hey can you send me the TX AP stabs that you got
sound test on stabs?
curious
link
the alternator light has come on in my car, looks like i'll be using the stock wooting for a bit longer than i would've liked
