[crystal frost]

lol

[vale swan]

its hot its raining n i dont have my package

[latent fern]

if he prefers the wooting for work then just let him be haha ofc there are better options but if thats what zerb likes then so be it

[vale swan]

what we said is there are better options thats it

anyways enough

[crystal frost]

never said there wasnt better options

[latent fern]

i think the people in this chat are just confused because a workspace wouldnt benefit from the features a wooting offers

[crystal frost]

i get that

[tired geyser]

Hi guys, i bought the wooting 60HE but i want black transparent keycaps, i though about clear 2048 but seem not available at all

Someone have alternative or suggestion of black transparent keycap ?

Thx you 😄

[summer kettle]

Time to test theses KS-20U's

[sweet oak]

An actual ulx

[loud zephyr]

blanks

[loud zephyr]

Pretty sure Amazon has loads of transparent keycaps

[vale swan]

that rest fits so nice with the tofu

i miss that on my salvation

[summer kettle]

It does soo much! Kinda wish I had a black tofu case instead of the silver to make it match more but oh well

[vale swan]

yeah i have the black tofu myself

it was a very nice matchup

[summer kettle]

you running a similar colour scheme??

[vale swan]

i used to

pbtfans wob, black tofu and black rest

[summer kettle]

Ooo what you got now?

[vale swan]

white salvation, gmk dracula

no rest

these are my old configs

[summer kettle]

That black tofu looks soo good

[vale swan]

it does ye

after that i moved on to gmk

[vale swan]

ye black on black looks clean, it almost makes me wanna go white on white this time

[summer kettle]

Honestly would think the white and white would look ever better, especially with the rgb to compliment it

[vale swan]

this is what im running rn

[summer kettle]

One thing I hate about this current color setup of all black is the visable dust is PAIN

[vale swan]

yeah ik

the tofu ano also scratched like crazy and fingerprints a lot

[summer kettle]

Gonna put back on my old ass keycaps and just thinking they would compliment your case so good wtf, Thats like a offwhite colour right?

[vale swan]

its not like white white but it is white

i kinda like redacted if i go white on white

[summer kettle]

Ok i fuck with this

[vale swan]

i bet u dont fuck with this

[vale swan]

u also have to keep in mind im ass at taking photos and that was taken with a dirty phone camera lens

[vale swan]

irl its almost as white as this

[grizzled path]

so uh just get a sharpie and basic white caps

[little glen]

I like the look of white(ish) keycaps on black case

[vale swan]

these are anything but basic

GMK spacebars go hard

these are the highest quality abs shit possible

[little glen]

I got my first abs set a few days ago and i am loving it

Gmk set*

[vale swan]

yeah pbt spacebars sound like ass

i only ever like pbt in foamed up configs

my build rn runs 0 foam with just 1 layer of tape and carbon fiber plate with jades

[tired geyser]

yeah but i check some and they are not really pretty 😅

that why i try to get some who look like clear 2048

[little glen]

I really need to fix my stabs but idk if its worth it if i‘m getting my 80he in a few months

They‘re so rattly 😭

[vale swan]

look on aliexpress or other kbdfans resellers

[vale swan]

what stabs

[little glen]

The ones that came with wooting one

[tired geyser]

it's insane how clear 2048 is sold out on every website

[vale swan]

the module ones take like 10 minute tops to do

[vale swan]

oh god

those idk

[vale swan]

pbtfans abs sets are really pretty

their abs is much deeper than gmk abs but the colors are crazy

[little glen]

I‘ve just been using em since 2018

[vale swan]

https://kbdfans.com/products/pbtfans-x-ray look at this shit

its so nice

[little glen]

That looks very cool

[vale swan]

ye

kbdfans's stuff is pretty nice

drop dcx is also a good ABS alternative to GMK tho I never tried those

[tired geyser]

how does it look like with rgb keyboard ?

[vale swan]

not sure

[little glen]

Those caps would look great with the transparent cases coming with 80he

[little glen]

I dont think it has shine through

[tired geyser]

to be honest i am not huge fan of this keycap design 😅

[loud zephyr]

Maybe these guys might be worth looking into, but none in black at the moment, I've seen the brand in a few specialist keyboard stores https://deadline.space/

[vale swan]

no custom high end keycaps are shinethrough

[little glen]

True

[tired geyser]

it's decent, thx for the link 🙂

https://deadline.space/collections/keycaps/products/coming-soon-deadline-pc-keycaps-airg

unlucky it's sold out 😂

[loud zephyr]

someone posted a youtube build with those caps in your favorite socks colour: pink #1226112878621360239 message

[tired geyser]

clean suuuuu

but i think i will wait the clear 2048 in dark, it's so clean caps but idk how much they will be back ... i hope less than 1 year xD

[loud zephyr]

oh yeah, just be wary though, these things are absolute fingerprint magnets and can get slippery

[velvet egret]

Where did you order your ks-20u from/price?

[cedar gate]

https://www.amazon.com/GEKUCAP-Minimalist-Sublimation-Customized-Compatible/dp/B0CPXQ5C9W/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=1BU9Z10OQ61SQ&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.r3rBMcgwAaYn4OurSVS-spxfBo4jnSuagV4h9eTigJNx9fkKQ5dMM3pc8yvqh9LzxhA69YzbwB1CF8VVmJAWCojTwAGuWhUmyDBQZQH6vJXNEeGQU52zOa-w0cIL8pV-HaRxbXJreJ9ChBkj0sd5sYwQAd2W3bkJYhe3H8qLL6poIiD5mvRolc1M-CGOqw-APvbDEI5H6iJU_VLwtXSnMg.cUNfo_lMRDzlYkWV5VwFQ8KbdLM5UVNr8-QJUI1mXqw&dib_tag=se&keywords=red+japanese+subtext+keycaps&qid=1712582669&sprefix=red+japanese+subtext+keycaps%2Caps%2C137&sr=8-1

Are those keycaps actually good

[vale swan]

they look really average but i mean the price isnt that high

these are gmk clones maybe or some pbtfans clones

[cedar gate]

Yeah there supposed to be pbtfans crosshair

I LOVE that set but there sold out and won't restock

[cedar gate]

What makes them worse tho

[little glen]

Genuine question; why are keycaps with japanese legends so popular? I dont get it

[vale swan]

the legends are absolutely trash compared to pbtfans

and the pbt quality is probably ass too

[elfin garnet]

it looks cool to me on some sets but as a NORDEUK user I can forget about getting a set with japanese legends because the number row and ØÆÅ would be without

[cedar gate]

I think it's a cool look and it's a nice way to add a red highlight

Looks a hell of a lot better than weird colors like purple green and brown on a kb imo

[cedar gate]

Yeah I honestly hated the legends

I would legit pay triple price on my very strict budget just to have them restock the crosshair

[summer kettle]

Mechkeysshop for like 80usd

So much better feeling than the stock switches

[velvet egret]

damn, rip that price..

[drifting bronze]

What does PC plate do instead.of the metal one

[sharp mantle]

significantly better than the stock?

[nimble girder]

Awesome modding

[brazen sparrow]

Does the final mouse has as much flex as everyone says?

What did you sweat do to your keycap??!

[drifting bronze]

The PC plate is it good when ur getting thenalumaze case

[indigo sierra]

Just out of curiosity, are you looking for a mouse?

[brazen sparrow]

Been looking at it not going to lie. I’ve also been interested in what the hype about this mouse is all about.

[indigo sierra]

If you're interested in fingertip style mouse kinda like the ULX you should probably look at the Beast X (Mini)

[elfin garnet]

It's overpriced garbage. Much better options out there that are more available as well

[agile grove]

not sure how their current batches are, but finalmouse it known for having horrible QC

[indigo sierra]

like 30-40 bucks cheaper + always available

and good build quality

i have one

[brazen sparrow]

My palm grip had abit of force near the final mouse jump and it seems there’s quite abit of flex there.

[indigo sierra]

A bit weird to palm a finalmouse tho

[spiral anvil]

Not too much

[summer kettle]

Had no problem with flex, Using it for around 2 months and I pretty much use palm/finger tip with it aswell but I tell you one thing, the clicks are horrible.. so mushy feeling and the wobble is insane, Mine was batch 2 aswell were alot of this was suppose to be fixed but gonna return it either this week or next

[brazen sparrow]

So near that center hump it isn’t flexing for you when you push into it?

I’ve haven’t heard any good things about QC when it comes to final mouse.

[vale swan]

@summer kettle im cleaning my gmk rn and put on my old pbt caps white with black looks pretty clean

[little glen]

That looks very good

[vale swan]

sounds awful besides the 2u mods but looks good

[drifting bronze]

Is when I get the alumacd case the normal metal plate good or is the polycarbonate plate better

[little glen]

Personally i like a bit of color, but the black keycaps with white case or white keycaps on black case combo i like a lot

[vale swan]

ye it almost makes me wanna pick up a gmk wob

[stray tiger]

See if you can snag key kobo wob

[vale swan]

i'll think about it but i still think redacted would be nicer on this

[stray tiger]

If you want redacted, subscribe to the Omnitype happy hour sales. They are for 4 hours every Thursday. Sometimes you can snag redacted for $89

[vale swan]

im surprised that i prefer the 2u mods on the pbt compared to the gmk

[vale swan]

the problem is im in the EU so the taxes will sting

[elfin garnet]

I'm currently on a light set and I liked at first, but feel like I'm bored of the light color already. Mekanisk fjell in dark grey with the GMK cosmos set would be lit rn ngl

[stray tiger]

ohh damn, yeah that sucks

[vale swan]

oblotzky has redacted tho

its 140 b4 shipping however which is fine for me thats what i paid for dracula too

[elfin garnet]

https://oblotzky.industries/products/gmk-cyl-redacted

[vale swan]

ye

those

[stray tiger]

If youre going dark green, I feel like you almost have to put GMK BRG on it or IFK Vanir

[vale swan]

the dark olive set could also work no?

[stray tiger]

I think dark olive looks awesome on everything. Its a set I wish I had

[summer kettle]

Nopee would have to push down really hard to even notice

[vale swan]

these

yea they are awesome

[stray tiger]

But I feel like everyone who goes green case goes with BRG but IFK Vanir is a sleeper set

[vale swan]

yeah it kinda goes like that sometimes

[summer kettle]

Cleaaaaaan

[vale swan]

cant wait for the gmk to be cleaned, this pbt spacebar is a bit warped and is very loose, i had to do plastic wrap mod just for it to not pop off

[elfin garnet]

Yeah, im using GMK November Fog right now. Think it works with a green case as well

[vale swan]

i mean personally i dont really need another GMK set but I like redacted a lot so i will cop one soon

i like both of these looks wise, tho gmk is far superior sound wise to me besides the 2u mods

[drifting bronze]

What should I do should I get the black alumaze case with black keycaps of the white case with black keycaps

[vale swan]

i mean look at mine

if you like the white with black

get it

[drifting bronze]

But I have the backlight abs keycaps

[vale swan]

oh

in that case definitely the black

[drifting bronze]

And id I get the alumaze case is it worth buying a PC plate when I already have a wooting 60he+ prebuild

And is it worth getting burgermount or not

[vale swan]

why did u just not buy the 60he+ module with the alumaze

it would've been so much cheaper

[drifting bronze]

Ok

Yeah don't know

[vale swan]

i'd look at the tofu too

i actually prefer the plastic case over the alumaze sound wise

[drifting bronze]

I didn't have the money for it then

[vale swan]

because the alumaze is thin

[drifting bronze]

What video is there of it

And what case would u recommend then

[vale swan]

tofu redux with brass weight

[drifting bronze]

Where can I get it

[vale swan]

on kbdfans's aliexpress store

or kbdfans site

i recommend aliexpress because you dont have import fees there tho it takes longer there

from kbdfans they take 5 days directly with fedex for me

from aliexpress with their normal shipping it takes 2 weeks

[drifting bronze]

Oh but with shipping from kbd fans is it 133 dollar

[vale swan]

try aliexpress too

[drifting bronze]

And do u have a video from the alumaze case and the normal one

And is the tofu so much better?

[vale swan]

https://www.youtube.com/@badseedtech

decide for urself

oh it didnt link the video

ffs

https://youtu.be/4bvLyb2HhrU

[drifting bronze]

Ok thank u and if I lube the switches and stabilizers wil it make a big difference in the normal case?

[vale swan]

the stabilizers if they rattle yes

the switches are shit regardless

[drifting bronze]

And the polycarbonate plate?

Should I buy that

[stark osprey]

Played with my cousin's wooting w/ Tofu vs mine in Alumaze. His is heavier, but I like the build and aesthetics of the Alumaze better overall.

[vale swan]

watch the video

and find out

[vale swan]

sound wise the tofu wins

but looks wise its debatable

[stark osprey]

nah even in badseed's video the Alumaze wins that too

for me anyway

[drifting bronze]

It's just fucked.i need to use.paypal on kbd fans

[vale swan]

if you like it more then buy it

[vale swan]

buy from their aliexpress store

[drifting bronze]

Il check

[vale swan]

that way u dont get dinged for import fees

[drifting bronze]

Yeah and the polycarbonate plat vs the metal one what does it make a difference I don't know much it's my first keyboard I want to mod

[vale swan]

sound wise

steel is more metallic way louder and higher pitched

pc is quieter lower pitched softer bottom out and not metallic

fr4(fiberglass composite) is higher pitched than pc but stiffer

its a pretty good mid point tbh

[agile grove]

fr4 sucks

[vale swan]

ok

[agile grove]

just go CF (carbon fiber)

[stark osprey]

Curious how that Zinc alloy case is going to sound on the new 80he.

[vale swan]

why would u say fr4 sucks

have you even tried it

[agile grove]

similar to plastic, maybe a bit deeper.

[vale swan]

?

what

how will metal sound lower pitched than plastic

[agile grove]

density, it will be less hollow

[stark osprey]

is there a video anywhere I could listen what the 80he sounds like, the zinc case ofc?

[vale swan]

i can promise you right now metal is not lower pitched than plastic

i own the tofu alumaze and salvation and the stock plastic case

[stark osprey]

been outta the loop for awhile, just ordered the 80he as a gift for brother

[agile grove]

not yet

theres a plastic sound test on the website

[stark osprey]

so how do you know what it sounds like already?

[vale swan]

alumaze is the deeper of the 3, tofu can go either way depending on the foam and the salvation si the highest pitch

[quasi topaz]

imo luigi you should quit this channel your opinions are based on nothing and you say 50% of crap

[vale swan]

my guy really said fr4 sucks without any elaboration and then proceeded to say metal is lower pitched than plastic

[drifting bronze]

And what mods should I do on the wooting 60he then

[vale swan]

what do you want out of it

like what are your problems with the one u have rn

@agile grove i actually wanna hear it tho

why is fr4 bad and how is metal lower pitched than plastic

[drifting bronze]

I want a better sound a deeper sound not ratally and not the that it moves around on my desk so it needs to be heavier

Do u get foam with the alumaze case?

[stark osprey]

yes

[drifting bronze]

And it can't change the performance

[agile grove]

I used the wrong word thats mb, I meant less hollow compared to plastic. for fr4, thats just my opinion, however I realize that it was not asked for and im sorry.

[drifting bronze]

So what mods should I do

[agile grove]

whats your budget?

[drifting bronze]

200

[agile grove]

200 what

[harsh dove]

FR4 is great

[agile grove]

personally I dont really like it from the soundtest I've heard

[drifting bronze]

Euro

[agile grove]

but I havent tried it in person so it could be amazing lol

[quasi topaz]

luigi this clown decoration suits you very well

[normal schooner]

[quasi topaz]

WELL

i meant

nvm

lets forget about it ^^

[normal schooner]

[agile grove]

thats why im using it

[drifting bronze]

I have the budget from 200 euro to 250 euro and the things I dont like about my current stock wooting 60he+ is I want a better sound a deeper sound not ratally and it needs to be heavier but the mods can't change the performance

[normal schooner]

do you have the pc plate?

[vale swan]

yo

[drifting bronze]

No

[normal schooner]

get that

[drifting bronze]

Ok

[normal schooner]

[drifting bronze]

And what else

The mod kit and lube

But is it worth lubing the switches and stabelizers

[normal schooner]

I would wait for the lekker v2 switches or the jades if u cant wait

[vale swan]

the stabs yes, the switches just buy new ones

[drifting bronze]

What new ones?

The jades?

[vale swan]

KS20U

Jades

[normal schooner]

I tested the lekker v2s last week myself. theyre goated

[drifting bronze]

But do they have the 0.1 mm response time

[vale swan]

yes they do

[drifting bronze]

And how do the jades sound compared to the lekker

[vale swan]

they are higher pitched

by a lot

and way louder

the KS20Us are basically lekkers with dual rails and fixed tolerances

[drifting bronze]

So a deeper sound?

[vale swan]

the KS20U are deeper

the jades are clackier

[normal schooner]

no the pc plate gives a deeper sound

get that

[drifting bronze]

Oh

[vale swan]

pc plate is the deepest plate i think yes

[drifting bronze]

And the alumaze case is that worth spending 130

[quasi topaz]

i wonder how there are after a month of use

[vale swan]

if you want the aesthetic and like the sound yes

i linked u the video

personally i go sound over looks so the tofu wins easily

[normal schooner]

same

[agile grove]

PC plate, polyfill, gummy mount, KS-20us, dielectric grease for stabilizers, tofu redux/alumaze (if you want a heavier case)

[stark osprey]

Thocc life gang.

[vale swan]

its not just the heft

the brass weight makes the tofu sound way way more full

[agile grove]

weight, looks, sound

[drifting bronze]

What is the gummy mount and the ks-20us

[agile grove]

#🪛│modding_faq

[drifting bronze]

And is the lube from wooting itself good

[vale swan]

yes its good

[mystic pumice]

I need a recommendation for a non HE Tactile switch with preferably transparent housing or good LED light allowance

[agile grove]

ks-20us are a different switch, gummy mount (as the name suggest) is a different way to mount the board that makes the sound more consist and reduces ping

[agile grove]

the polyfill should produce that same effect

[vale swan]

no

it does not

[drifting bronze]

But if I keep the lekker ones and I lube them what about that

[quasi topaz]

they will sound rattly again after a month

[agile grove]

its fine I guess, but lekkers by design are very rattly

[vale swan]

u'd lose ur time and money on the lube

mine stock were awful, i loved them lubed, then when the lube broke in they sounded awful again(tho way less awful than stock)

[agile grove]

might as well just buy ks-20us on sales tbh

[vale swan]

there are white ks20u's on aliexpress

that are 40 bucks

[agile grove]

usually ali will have good deals

[drifting bronze]

And the jades what about them

[vale swan]

they are clackier

[drifting bronze]

Bc I can only get a case or switches so

[vale swan]

switches 100%

[mystic pumice]

Man it is hard to go wrong with Jades

[drifting bronze]

And how if I lube them

[vale swan]

Jades/KS20Us in the plastic case will crush any lekker tofu or alumaze

[agile grove]

you said you wanted a deeper board so I dont think they would really fit what you want, but they do sound pretty good

[drifting bronze]

Ok so the jades with PC plate and lube

How about the stabelizers

What if I lube them

[vale swan]

in the plastic case, i liked steel better actually

steel is higher pitched which would help the jades pop

plastic will quieten them down

so your choice

if you are staying plastic for me i'd keep the steel plate

but if you want it deeper get plastic

[drifting bronze]

Wait what so only jades and lube

[vale swan]

depends on what you want

Jades will not make it deeper

if you want the deepest possible sound pc plate and KS20U

[drifting bronze]

Can u get the ks20u on the wooting store

[vale swan]

jades are also almost double the price of the white KS20Us on aliexpress

[mystic pumice]

No

[drifting bronze]

And wil they have the 0.1 mm actuation

[vale swan]

yes

they all do

[drifting bronze]

Ah

Huh how?

Bc of the PCB?

[agile grove]

the switches are just some plastic and a magnet

[vale swan]

https://a.aliexpress.com/_EjzW5gl

[agile grove]

the pcb is what actually matters

[vale swan]

take a look at these

[stray tiger]

Yes, sensor and firmware determine the way that the flux is measured

[vale swan]

these are white KS20U's from ali

they are pulled from a prebuilt

[mystic pumice]

How stable are KS20U since its Dual rail?

[vale swan]

they are the most stable

but jades are also really stable

[mystic pumice]

I got Jades

[vale swan]

the dual rail shit is mostly a gimmick

[agile grove]

these are ks20s not ks20us

[vale swan]

they are U's

you can tell by the stem and the top housing

[agile grove]

huh

[mystic pumice]

I know, but I don't really care about stability too much. As long as it not horrible and noticable while my fingers rest on the keys

[drifting bronze]

So if I get the jades and lube them how long wil the lube stay?

[agile grove]

the listing says ks20

[vale swan]

these are pulled from a prebuilt and sold for cheap by the YMDK store

we checked with the seller and they are 20U's

these also show up on amazon

[agile grove]

oh

interesting

[drifting bronze]

And is there a video with the plastic case and lubed jaded

[mystic pumice]

I can make one

[vale swan]

look at the stem

first is KS20U

[mystic pumice]

When I get home

[vale swan]

2nd is KS20 v1

its much more curved on the U

[drifting bronze]

Ok thx

[agile grove]

you're right

[mystic pumice]

But there probably is video out there

[vale swan]

these also look nicer

and are 40 eur instead of 67

so theres not really a reason not to

they are actually cheaper than buying the white KS20 v1s which is funny to me

[agile grove]

I hate gaterons naming scheme sometimes lol

[vale swan]

i kinda learned their shit

[drifting bronze]

And the lekker 45s are they bad to

[vale swan]

and i know how to tell them apart

[vale swan]

ye they are the same as your L60 but different spring

[drifting bronze]

How long does the lube stay on the the jades

[mystic pumice]

True, I thought to myself "what kind of name is Linear Smoothie Switch" lmao

[vale swan]

the lube stays forever on all of them

its what happens after the break in period that differs

[agile grove]

eh all switches has stupid names like that tbh

[mystic pumice]

Unless they literally are not used for years then it will probably dry out from inactivity

[vale swan]

Jades get smoother and they dont rattle really anymore(not that they rattle stock)

[median spade]

the lube stays forever but the medium in which iit sits can dry out a bit

[vale swan]

ye that

[drifting bronze]

Oh and how many switches should I get 70 or 90 for my wooting 60he

[mystic pumice]

Exactly but it takes forever before that happens

[vale swan]

70

[agile grove]

70

[vale swan]

the board takes 61

so u will have 9 extras

[drifting bronze]

Oh ok

[vale swan]

70 also fits a 65

those usually have 67-68 keys

[agile grove]

@harsh dove you're the third result on google when searching ks20u

[vale swan]

our boy made it

he is popular

[mystic pumice]

My Jades sadly came with 1 switch missing and 2 defects so I only have 6 extras 😦

[agile grove]

fr

[harsh dove]

Nice

[vale swan]

mine all work its just the extras are either over/underlubed or taken apart left to dry and never put together

[drifting bronze]

And what is better stock case metal plate with lubes jades or alumaze case with lubed jades and PC plate

[vale swan]

i tried a lot of shit on them

[harsh dove]

Also could’ve just looked at the bottom housing to tell that they’re KS20u

[vale swan]

yeah

they are a nice way to get ur hands on KS20us

[mystic pumice]

One literally had a broken spring and another one had a cracked bottom housing on mine

[wind karma]

how can i test my switches if they're underlubed or overlubed when i get them before putting em in the board

[vale swan]

rip

[agile grove]

tho I think they might be lighter than regular ks20us

[mystic pumice]

Feel

[vale swan]

big doubt

[drifting bronze]

And what is better stock case metal plate with lubes jades or alumaze case with lubed jades and PC plate

[vale swan]

preference

[mystic pumice]

It is not really what is "better" but what sound, look or feel you prefere.

[vale swan]

to me its the plastic case for sure

[drifting bronze]

And what is the differens between clacky and thocky

[agile grove]

just double checked it they seem to be the same nvm

[vale swan]

the alumaze has that really weird metallic reasonance in it that doesnt go away even in gummy o ring

[mystic pumice]

Clack is high pitch and thock is deeper

[agile grove]

clacky is usually higher pitched and louder while while thocky is deeper and more muted

[drifting bronze]

I like them both

[vale swan]

put a deskpad or a mousepad under your plastic one and it will be way nicer

[mystic pumice]

This you you can literally YouTube it and get good results

[agile grove]

however those arent exactly standard- there can be deep clack or loud thock

[vale swan]

thats why you refer to them with proper words

[drifting bronze]

What's a deskpad

[vale swan]

High-Pitch, Low-Pitch

[mystic pumice]

Yeah, my 60HE+ with Jades thock but kinda loudly

[vale swan]

one of those big mousepads that cover your keyboard and mouse

or a keebmat

[drifting bronze]

I have a artisan mousepad so its not that big

[harsh dove]

I prefer the peach colored stem but that’s just me

[agile grove]

sorry if im a bit off today I've been sick for a week 😅

[vale swan]

ye this entire hobby is all preference

[harsh dove]

No

[median spade]

what's da amazon link

[harsh dove]

Everyone’s opinion matters

[vale swan]

look for the ymdk store on amazon

[vale swan]

well ye

[harsh dove]

Do what other people tell you

[vale swan]

exactly

[harsh dove]

Don’t try things for yourself

[vale swan]

you are gonna mod ur keyboard

like i tell u to

u hear me?

I AM NOT CRAZY

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/billy-porter-tea-gif-22730399

[drifting bronze]

I never lubed switches before how do I do it

[mystic pumice]

YouTube

[drifting bronze]

Ok thx

[harsh dove]

Wooting YouTube channel

They have tons of guides

[drifting bronze]

Ok thx

[mystic pumice]

Many of these questions can be answered with a simple YouTube search

[drifting bronze]

Yeah so how do I know what's good

[vale swan]

u try it urself

[agile grove]

you spend 1 hour lubing 5 switches and then the next 3 hours crying about how long its going to take to lube the remaining switches

[mystic pumice]

You try for yourself and figure out what you like

[vale swan]

@harsh dove I am once again asking for the kitty keycaps, pretty please

nah i meant ship em to me

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/no-bugs-bunny-nope-gif-4095597578532971838

[vale swan]

:(

damn i thought we were friends

btw is anyone streaming anytime soon?

[mystic pumice]

There is literally millions of ways to customize a keyboard, so nothing is inherently good or bad but its all about preference my friend

One person may say that Thock is the best and ONLY way a keyboard should sound, and that would be good for him, but someone else might ONLY like clacky switches or MX blues that click loudly

[drifting bronze]

So I should buy the jades and lube kit

[agile grove]

if you want

[drifting bronze]

I like how the jades sound

[mystic pumice]

It's not about "should" but if it sounds interresting then sure go for it

[median spade]

ahh okay better off just doing ali as that will be no benefit for shippinig lmao

ymdk store might as well not be on amazon imo

[agile grove]

personally if you were going to get the jades I'd say buy the jades first, test them, if you wanna lube them then lube them

[mystic pumice]

You don't necessarily need to buy lube kit. But it is an option.

I have not lubed any switches and they still sound amazing

[vale swan]

yeah

ali is goated bruh

[median spade]

yep lol ymdk is useless on amazon

I do not know why they even use iti

nothing is ever prime or at amazon warehouses for them

[velvet egret]

@harsh dove You have a decent amount of experience with Graveshift o-rings correct?

[harsh dove]

Yessir

[agile grove]

the ks20us are also more expensive on amazon

im really tempted to get some ks20us

however I need to save up for a new pc and im curious about lekker v2s

[stray tiger]

What do you mean? If you want a rapid trigger switch they make it very clear

[mystic pumice]

Do people tend to preferer Raptor HE or KS-20u?

[agile grove]

tho im assuming lekker v2s are going to be very similar to ks20us

[agile grove]

depends

I think ks-20u is the more popular of the two

[mystic pumice]

Aight

[agile grove]

I've heard that raptors sound like higher lekkers

[polar girder]

I wouldn’t agree with that

[mystic pumice]

Rapid Trigger non HE switches?

[polar girder]

They sound like tighter lekkers

All around

[stray tiger]

exactly

[mystic pumice]

I got the Gateron Smoothies but not the Rapid Trigger ones

[stray tiger]

Then you got the wrong ones!

[mystic pumice]

Does the rapid trigger actually work? And how do you turn it on or off?

[agile grove]

I feel like lekker v2s are going to sound very similar to ks-20us since ks-20us sound like lekkers without the rattle

[stray tiger]

No, there is no rapid trigger. They just want to use the marketing hype to sucker people lol

[agile grove]

unless wooting has something special cooking

[mystic pumice]

So literally just misinformation? lmaooooo

[agile grove]

disinformation*

[mystic pumice]

True but I am not English native speaker

[agile grove]

its all good, most native english speakers dont know the difference anyways lol

[median spade]

let me go buy these and put them in my 60he

surely will work

[agile grove]

surely

[mystic pumice]

I do, but I am wired on caffeine at the moment, so I just type before I double check haha

ADHD brain go bbbbrrrrrrr

[agile grove]

it do be like that sometimes

[nova relic]

I'm currently using a black tofu redux, with blank black keycaps. Thinking about getting the PC plate in black. Wont it look too dull? Anybody could post a pic with black PC plate and not shinethrough caps?

[stray tiger]

Are you refering to the RGB?

[nova relic]

I use full white, but yea, the rgb

[stray tiger]

Yes, the black is meant to reduce the reflection of the RGB

[nova relic]

yea, thats what bothers me. the keyboard itself would probably look more slick with black pc, but the lightning might be too meh

[mystic pumice]

White reflects light and black absorbs so it will be dimmer in terms of bightness

[vale swan]

by a lot too

[stray tiger]

Just set your RGB to white full blast and rock the blacked out look

[vale swan]

the wooting rgb cant really do white properly

it goes into a blueish tint

[vale swan]

i'd love a white backlight but ye

[nova relic]

thats how she looks right now

[vale swan]

ye tha red not rlly white to me

[nova relic]

decent enough for me. 50% brightness with the AOE effect

[velvet egret]

I'm Currently running a redux/Jades, What O-ring would you recommend?

Ive been waiting since november for an EU supplier to stock them cuz shipping is crazy expensive but i cba to wait anymore.

[harsh dove]

What stabs are you using ?

Plate mount or PCB mount?

[velvet egret]

Module+ STock screw in stabs

[vale swan]

which one

prebuilt or module

[velvet egret]

module

[spiral anvil]

Plus or none plus

[vale swan]

hmm

[spiral anvil]

Ah so pcb mount

[vale swan]

if u wanna keep the stabs s size

[spiral anvil]

Hmmmm

[harsh dove]

Stock screw in stabs?

[velvet egret]

yes

[spiral anvil]

40A should be fine

[harsh dove]

You have to get the S-size rings

[velvet egret]

yeah i do know that. but what about hardness

or wtvr u call taht A Number

[harsh dove]

30-50a is recommended

I use 40 mainly

[velvet egret]

alright thanks!

shipping alone is 20+

[spiral anvil]

Depends on case

I like 50A for Tofu redux

[velvet egret]

50 makes it harder no?? like stiffer

[harsh dove]

Yeah

I’ve used 55a and 70a

I prefer 40 in most instances

[velvet egret]

Alright yeah i think i will stick to the lighter side of the scale.

[polar girder]

Yeah 40 is the way

[harsh dove]

I’ve tried them on tofu and alumaze

[velvet egret]

Aight, thanks!

[harsh dove]

One thing to worry about tho , with screw in stabs, the o ring makes it sit funny in the case

[vale swan]

you like the shit soft huh

[velvet egret]

owh?

[harsh dove]

It’ll sit crooked a bit

So if OCD bothers you

Lemme see if I have a pic

[velvet egret]

My module atm is a lil crooked xD left side sits lower than my right side.

[spiral anvil]

50A feels a bit loose on the redux for me but if you got screw ins its probably fine to go 40A

[harsh dove]

Not my board but this is what I mean

[velvet egret]

Ill also have to run foam instead of silicone insert right

[spiral anvil]

Yea

[harsh dove]

And trust me, no amount of trying to force it to sit straight will fix it

It’ll just go back to being crooked

[velvet egret]

oh i see that's not too bad. all the keys can still be fully pressed down right

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[spiral anvil]

40A moment

[vale swan]

sounds like something i would

[harsh dove]

I tried with multiple rings

[velvet egret]

aight. ill grab a medium 40a aswel incase i wanna swap out the stabs

[vale swan]

poor CAM

cursed by the same OCD as me

[harsh dove]

I have 30-40-50-55-70

[spiral anvil]

Damn unlucky then

[vale swan]

btw alex is streaming rn if u wanna watch @harsh dove

[harsh dove]

Yeah I just use clip ins

Cause you can use M size rings

And they sit fine

[velvet egret]

which clipins did you use? Cherrys?

[elfin garnet]

Oh I could never. I would start punching the thing lol

[vale swan]

ye just use cherry

[spiral anvil]

Also if you have small o-rings for burger mounting you can put those on the middle standoffs

[harsh dove]

Tx ap but I don’t recommend them because I’m a wizard and can make them work (without filing the plate) while others have fitment issues @velvet egret

[vale swan]

gummy o ring and burger mount are different things

yeah i had a lot of fitment issues with mine

on 5 different plates

[velvet egret]

aight Cherrys safe pick then

i aint no wizzard

[vale swan]

apparently im not either

[harsh dove]

Yeah cherry would be my go to or Gateron silvers

[spiral anvil]

I know, I mean putting the small o rings on the middle stand offs while gummy o-ringing

[vale swan]

oh gateron has clip ins?

[vale swan]

that doesnt do anything

[harsh dove]

Oh wait

Nah idk

[vale swan]

i think clip ins are only cherry or tx

which is weird

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[vale swan]

considering how many gummy o ring keyboards we have now

[spiral anvil]

Do they not rest on the middle?

[vale swan]

the whole point of gummy o ring is to friction mount the pcb to the case

u dont use screws anymore

so burger mount o rings are irrelevant

[spiral anvil]

Yea but the pcb still sits on the middle stand offs

[velvet egret]

aight thanks everyone! orderd my goodies.. 7-21 days yawnnn.

[vale swan]

it still touches the standoffs if thats what you are asking yes

if i were to actually main o ring, i'd just chop them off

[harsh dove]

Durocks

Have clip ins

[vale swan]

they do?

where

[spiral anvil]

Which is why I o-ringed the standoffs rather than just go the nuclear option of chopping them off

[harsh dove]

Etsy lmao

[vale swan]

its still better to rip them off

etsy??

mf what

[spiral anvil]

Dog what

Etsy

[vale swan]

how is it on etsy but not aliexpress

[spiral anvil]

[vale swan]

gimme a link

theres no shot

[harsh dove]

$45

[vale swan]

WHAT

i could buy 2 sets of staebies with that 45 bucks

[harsh dove]

https://www.etsy.com/listing/1285046398/clip-in-durock-v2-stabilizers-clear

[spiral anvil]

Oh yea if you're NA Divinikey has those

[vale swan]

who bought these bruh

[vale swan]

ah they came out recently

this makes sense

[velvet egret]

why would one buy v2 if they have v3

[vale swan]

do they have durock v3 clip ins?

i highly doubt it

[harsh dove]

Idk

[velvet egret]

etsy not. but they exist

[harsh dove]

V3 just came out

[spiral anvil]

V3 plate or clip in

[harsh dove]

Plate

[velvet egret]

Plate & screw ins.. But screw ins are Durock/everglide

[vale swan]

screw ins idc abt

i'm probably gonna pick up some cherry clip ins for my wt60 pcb so i can either friction mount it in the tofu or when i wanna try it out in the salvation put it there too

[spiral anvil]

Sound test in the tofu redux

[median spade]

that do be sounding like a 60he in a tofu redux

[drifting bronze]

@vale swan if i get the jade switches and the lube kit and tweasers i should be good with the keyboard right or what switches sound tocky

[velvet egret]

what switches?

[spiral anvil]

Franken raptors

[velvet egret]

ah. i thought raptors but something sounded different xD

[median spade]

Day 389 of waiting for actually good sounding HE switches

https://tenor.com/view/overthinking-lonely-cafe-diner-spongebob-gif-5623186

[stray tiger]

They are getting there (trust me), but there is a lot of design xp with traditional MX switches that's going to take a while to bleed into HE switches, but it will happen at a rapid pace

[harsh dove]

Yeah

Just wait we’ll be like , remember the …

[drifting bronze]

what are good tocky switches for the wooting 60he

[median spade]

I do wonder if it will ever be solved with how the magnet is and such

Just a lot of the properties that give MX theiri sound has to do with contact which is fundamentally against what HE does

[stray tiger]

There a number of ways to handle the magnet, especially as the tech matures. Smaller, slimmer, orientation, location, etc

[median spade]

Will be interesting to see

A lot of it comes down to mounting too and the pcb needing to be air tight wiith the switches

[harsh dove]

Lil solar eclipse today

[median spade]

bro I can't see anything rn

[harsh dove]

Lmao

[median spade]

no clouds at all yesterday

and now the grey sheet has arrived

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[spiral anvil]

Its all cloud for me

I'm waiting for half of my generation to go blind because they forgot to wear the right glasses

[median spade]

they're gen z they're already blind and dumb it's okay

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/eduardo-sterblitch-eduardo-sterblitch-laugh-smile-gif-21515066

[spiral anvil]

Honestly the franken raptors have grown on me

It sounds like rain pelts

[harsh dove]

Try KS20u

[vale swan]

its 9pm for me btw

[median spade]

they're cheap on ali now right

[harsh dove]

Yeah but I don’t like those white ones

But yeah like $40

[spiral anvil]

I'm if it ain't broke I ain't fixing it

[lunar ruin]

Not looking that bad for a first build... But the sound is meh

[vale swan]

woah

holy 60

[median spade]

well yeah the holy 60 case is just open air essentially

[harsh dove]

Could’ve told you that based on your case

[vale swan]

trash keycaps but nice build

[harsh dove]

With HE , no bueno

With MX, it’s fine

[vale swan]

well with jades it could work maybe

not with the open bottom ones tho

[spiral anvil]

How different is it from franken rapotors anyway

[harsh dove]

I just like em better

[lunar ruin]

i don't really care about the sound honestly so it's ok

[harsh dove]

Raptor hybrids cause too much friction for me

I’ve tried them twice

[spiral anvil]

Yea I'll pass then

[harsh dove]

With diff stems

They’re also deeper

Than raptors

[spiral anvil]

Ah you have to delube them for me

[lunar ruin]

i know , i'm looking for good blank keycaps rn , but hard to find

[median spade]

I should rebuild my frankenraptors since my l60 stems are just rotting in a bag

[harsh dove]

Check CannonKeys NicePBT Blanks

They drop in a couple months if you can wait

May 2024

[brazen sparrow]

Hasn’t started for me yet

[drifting bronze]

@vale swan i'm gonna buy the jades and the lube kit and tweasers but what happens if i use a pc plate and what if i use the alumaze case

[vale swan]

oh brother

i dont even know how to answer that

what exactly do you want

to do

[median spade]

Man sure love being able to see that eclipse

[vale swan]

you and me both brother

fucking 19c of heat

at 9:30pm

not even middle of april

@median spade what temp is it for you

[lunar ruin]

Oh thanks they look good , but no black from what i'm seeing. Maybe a sign to go white keycaps

[median spade]

Uhh let me convert

15.5 C

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/helldivers-2-helldivers-sweet-liberty-no-gif-9005209856004612271

Me currently

[median spade]

Yeah I got my glasses on and see nothing

Gotta love it lol

[brazen sparrow]

I saw this article of people handing out fake glasses.

It was absolutely insane

[harsh dove]

2024, not surprised

[brazen sparrow]

“It’s such a funny prank!”

The prank:

[spiral anvil]

Wait what the fuck

HUH

HUHHHHH

NAHH

NAHHH

That's a lawsuit and a half

[drifting bronze]

guys should i buy this when i have the normal wooting 60he+ or should i only buy the switches the lube kit and the switch tool set

[vale swan]

i hope you do realize the jades from there dont arrive until late july

that means your entire order wont

[drifting bronze]

what why

[vale swan]

just go on aliexpress order KS20U's from the link above i put, buy the tofu redux and the brass weight with the fr4 or cf plate and call it done

[drifting bronze]

nah i cant order from aliexpress

[vale swan]

why

[drifting bronze]

just can't dont know

[vale swan]

?

[drifting bronze]

i tried but i just cant i dont know why

[vale swan]

where are u from

[drifting bronze]

belgium

[vale swan]

u should be fine then idk

if you want jades right now order from gaterons official site

they should have some

but they are clacky high pitched switches

they are not quiet or ''thocky'' w/e that even means

[drifting bronze]

yeah i know but what ik the red one dont know the name right now

[vale swan]

there is no red one

if you mean the raptors

those need work

[drifting bronze]

yeah

[vale swan]

a lot of work

if you want a better sounding keyboard

just buy jades and put it in whatever you have right now

[vale swan]

the alumaze is not worth it at that price gap

[drifting bronze]

ok and whats the name of the switches on gateron

[vale swan]

gateron magnetic jades

or if you want a deeper quieter switch KS20(U) Dual Rail

if they even have it up there

[drifting bronze]

nah they dont have them

[vale swan]

then buy the jades

[drifting bronze]

yeah i cant find them

[vale swan]

?

https://www.gateron.com/products/gateron-magic-jade-switch?VariantsId=10767

https://www.gateron.com/products/gateron-ks-20-dual-rail-magnetic-orange-switch-sat?VariantsId=10779

[drifting bronze]

are these the KS20

or is it the yellow one

[vale swan]

no

i linked u the ones

that u should look at

[elder hinge]

What is another good case besides the tofu redux for a 60he+

[lone slate]

alumaze 😄

[vale swan]

@harsh dove just checked on gateron.com, they do have actual gateron clip ins, they are just called pcb mounts.

[elder hinge]

True true lolol,

[vale swan]

so it looks like its not just cherry and tx

[harsh dove]

Oh so I was right

[vale swan]

yeah

they are very cheap too

[harsh dove]

I’ll have to check those out

[vale swan]

https://www.gateron.com/products/gateron-pcb-mounted-stabilizer?VariantsId=10208

[harsh dove]

Ah yeah they’re not out yet

[vale swan]

https://www.gateron.com/products/gateron-screw-in-stabilizer?VariantsId=10172 these look like the stabs on the module

[pastel vigil]

https://wooting-technologies.notion.site/de7a52e2b5a941258a17e448b0c9d9b0?v=5ec0b31c59db4a51b8a86a1288249e9f

Good is subjective. But here is a list.

[harsh dove]

I wanna try Swagkeys Knight Stabs

[vale swan]

never heard of those

[pastel vigil]

Pretty sure stock stabs are gateron

[harsh dove]

https://knckeys.com/products/swagkeys-knight-stabilizers

[vale swan]

ye

i just was never able to actually find the same one

[pastel vigil]

these look cute lol

Hope they don't suck

[harsh dove]

I’ve heard they’re pretty good

[vale swan]

these look like durock clones

[pastel vigil]

The fact that they are holee modded stock is huge

[vale swan]

oh nvm

ye

i just read that

thats very interesting

then u should be able to just use 205 on the wire too

thats what i did with TX AP anyways and they were fine

[median spade]

Man this eclipse keeps getting better

[harsh dove]

Yeah you can

[vale swan]

well thats nice

205 is easier imo because it doesnt create such a mess like grease

i feel like when i lube stabs shit gets legit everywhere

without even realizing

oh wow 15 usd too

these are cheaper than durock and all you have to do is just 205 it

no clipping, no holee mod, no bullshit besides making sure wires arent bent

[drifting bronze]

@vale swan ur gonna hate me man but honestly i think the lekker 60 sound better the n the jades

[harsh dove]

Wow

Said no one ever /s

[pastel vigil]

that makes the 2 of us

[harsh dove]

Yeah if you don’t like the clack of the jades then the deeper sound of the lekkers will be preferred

[vale swan]

honestly u kinda sold me on these stabs

these are really nice

[harsh dove]

And tbf, that’s really the only two sounds we have for HE switches atm

Jades or anything else that’s open bottom

[drifting bronze]

should i buy the alumaze case with the pc plate and the lube kut but should i lube the lekkers or is it not worth it

[pastel vigil]

I really hope we get a closed bottom switch that isn't long pole lol

[harsh dove]

I prefer long pole switches tbh

But I feel you

[pastel vigil]

I prefer the feel of them, but I dislike their sound profile. I just want more options, more opportunites to frankeswitch.

[pastel vigil]

Lubing isn't needed, but it does make a difference. If it's worth it or not is really up to you. Same with the case. It's pretty expensive and it doesn't sound better than the stock plastic case with the wooting lol, at least to me.

[vale swan]

the alumaze is not worth it unless you discount it with the module

it simply is not worth it by itself

the redux with the brass weight from ali is like what? 95 usd or smth like that shipped

that one atleast does not have any metallic noise in it and doesnt sound thin

[pastel vigil]

Speaking off, my acrylic and brass weight finally shipped today.

[vale swan]

that sounds like someone is gonna have fun

[pastel vigil]

took a few days. I should have sent them 8 emails and harrassed everyone in the server about it like a true wooting customer.

[stray tiger]

Some people do prefer the lower profile, the strap attachment and the typing angle.

[vale swan]

i wanna see more holy60s

that is true yes

actually forgot abt those

the lower profile being the biggest one

[harsh dove]

What the

[vale swan]

💀

[vale swan]

where did u get that bitch from bruh

wait

new logo

fucking hell that profile is bright

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/flashbang-gif-22572243

[vale swan]

yep

[harsh dove]

When you open Tirades profile

[vale swan]

I wonder if he has a final logo in mind yet

[stray tiger]

Im so bright my father called me sun

[vale swan]

💀

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/brian-baumgartner-badumtss-the-office-kevin-joke-gif-15818642

[vale swan]

i mean i like it tbh

im kinda surprised ai did all of that

tho the paid one i bet

[stray tiger]

I'm just playing around with stuff. I already have 500 stickers for keycon made up

[vale swan]

👀

[vale swan]

these are nice

[stray tiger]

All AI generated yeah

[vale swan]

wait really

i thought just the thockfather one was

[stray tiger]

Nah, I ended up generating all of the logos, holding/starting slides for OBS, etc etc

[vale swan]

thats pretty fire tbh that AI can do these this nicely

obviously if you spent like loads of time in ps you'd do a better job but yea

i genuinly like these

[stray tiger]

It's not perfect but the new DALL-E tools allow you to tweak an image instead of regenerating one over completely. For example I could tell it to remove the microphone hanging over the shoulder on this one or fix the spelling on this one

[harsh dove]

Thockr Father lol

[solid plume]

Just got the best news

[vale swan]

thockrfather aye

[solid plume]

My module and Tofu case both arrive tomorrow on the same day

[vale swan]

ig u rlly thocked that one

ok that was rlly bad

😭

[harsh dove]

The one on the right makes me think of a dwarf or half-ling

[solid plume]

AI has been great generating images

[vale swan]

ye but it still is nice imo

[solid plume]

This is my logo.

[vale swan]

and its pretty funny too

[vale swan]

make it ur pfp

[harsh dove]

Yeah it’s nice lol just the face looks dwarf ish

[vale swan]

tyrion lannister would be mad rn

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/tyrion-lannister-game-of-thrones-glance-stare-really-gif-25091370

[solid plume]

Done

[solid plume]

Really good logo!

[vale swan]

season 8 aware

[stray tiger]

You do have to becareful though if you use the tools to give it a little more free control. One mispelling and this could have turned out bad

[vale swan]

with a keyboard like that you can prove mfs wrong that you didn't touch grass

[vale swan]

ye imagine if the th would be replaced with a c

[harsh dove]

I like thock big and I cannot lie

More big more better big better more

[vale swan]

yes

[stray tiger]

https://tenor.com/view/sir-mix-alot-big-butts-gif-19551628

[drifting bronze]

but should i use the pc or metal plate

[pastel vigil]

PC. Metal plate is trash.

[solid plume]

Genius

[stray tiger]

Its preference and depends on the sound profile you like (and the switches)

[pastel vigil]

This is very true. But I've not yet seen someone say the prefer the steel plate.

[elfin garnet]

Me 2. I fkn hate how bad my keycaps sit on mod keys with stabs. Makes it so the sound is inconsistent too

[velvet egret]

Tomorrow my first set of GMK keycaps will arrive ❤️ GMK Mercury.

[pastel vigil]

Yo that's actually a nice set

[velvet egret]

yusss. Should fit nicely with my tofu redux silver/ Final mouse last legend. Also got a custom cable being made 🙂

[pastel vigil]

#1070668460905988106 better see the full build here

[harsh dove]

Made by Randall?

[velvet egret]

ofc. im not very creative/artistic so he helped me design it. pretty cool he takes his time to help you design it. Im super stoked can't wait for it, although not sure how long itl take

[pastel vigil]

Who is randall

[velvet egret]

ill def post smthng once i got everything

[harsh dove]

Yeah he’s great, he helped me design my most recent one for a board I have on GB

[velvet egret]

https://wiredinstore.com/

[velvet egret]

oh nice!!

[pastel vigil]

Glad to hear he can help like that! I was considering sending them a message about getting a GMK Pharaoh cable made for #1225533387050192947

[velvet egret]

[harsh dove]

[velvet egret]

i also went for that on mine

[harsh dove]

Yeah can’t go wrong with them

[velvet egret]

[harsh dove]

Why are keyboards so aesthetic

[velvet egret]

keebmat pad? underneath?

[harsh dove]

Yeah

But I need to get one from tirades friend

[velvet egret]

if i had more money i would prob group buy one of boards. they look so good.

[harsh dove]

He was making some cool B&W mats

[velvet egret]

oh nice.

keebmat finally restocked their 60% last week, was finally able to order mine.

@harsh dove Was it worth lubing your jades?

[harsh dove]

Some of the mats, Tirade showed

[harsh dove]

Yes

[drifting bronze]

with the pc plate what is your guys opinion on the silicone plate pad or the foam plate pad

[velvet egret]

Damn those are sick! Also crazy quality

[velvet egret]

Aight might have to take time in the weekend and lube them all

[velvet egret]

Personal preference. Try both and see which ones you like more

[harsh dove]

If I had to choose, I’d use nothing

[velvet egret]

Oh really!?

[harsh dove]

Yea

[velvet egret]

How so?

[harsh dove]

Just use nothing

I like how it sounds

[polar girder]

I use nothing

About to try the foam tho

Might quiet it a bit

But the sound is clean with nothing

[harsh dove]

No foam no foam no foam

Meanwhile there is me, buying even more foam

[polar girder]

Yeah I’m rocking polyfill in the case and nothing for the plate rn

Pretty happy

Was jamming out to the beautiful sound of my space bar last night

Pretty satisfying lol

[pastel vigil]

I'm unsure of my stabs, but my space bar goes hard

Which is the most important one, backspace be damned

[harsh dove]

Spacebar def important but I hate when my backspace is messed up

Right Shift be damned
