exactly snug tho? cause im worried about printing tolerances of my x1c

#

because im laser cutting the plate out of 0.0625in poly

harsh dove
#

I’d maybe adjust for margin of error

rigid anchor
#

gotcha gotcha

covert vigil
#

Yeah havo

rigid anchor
#

is 0.0625in poly alright for the plate?

#

because i know the average wanted plate height is around 1.5mm

I don’t know the exact wooting plate specs tbh but I’m sure they’re around here somewhere

#

If thats from the wooting cad file then id follow that

calm pulsar
#

btw are you designing a plate for plate mounted stabs or screw-ins?

it looks like its for plate-mounted, but if you got your wooting recently, it should support screw-ins

harsh dove
#

They’re designing a gasket mount

#

Appears to be an entire case really

#

And yeah they have the plate mount cut outs

calm pulsar

#

Ah fair

Any opinions on if burger mounting is worth the ~10 USD to order the screws and rings? Would it make that much of a difference?

#keybored Better Gaming Keyboard than Wooting 60HE?

The Wooting 60HE has been the benchmark keyboard for gamers... the special features it has due to the Hall-Effect switches deemed it the "cheating" keyboard... but now... other companies want a slice of its pie... like the new KBDfans Holy 60 + Rakka PCB... but is it any good? Better than the...

Might worth looking into as to why side gaskets are rarely ever used(at least when it comes to 60% builds), it's likely to add stiffness if you're going for a softer typing feel

Can you get the stabs out without disassembling the board?

nope

obviously not

If its screw ins no

i mean you could technically unscrew the PCB and keep the switches in the plate itself

unscrew the screw ins

and the typing experience

@paper bloom ty

Alumaze is pretty flat isn’t it?

paper bloom
hard moon
#

the typing experience depends on a lot of things actually. Keycaps, type of plastic for the caps, springs, lubing, inlay, dampening, etc.

#

so i can't really tell someone if the typing experience is great. Everyone has their own preferences

paper bloom
#

Point taken

hard moon
#

i.e. the PBT keycaps sound much more thocky than the dye sub keycaps and also feel a bit more solid

paper bloom
#

Wld be a good idea

#

So long as i secure myself a spacer

Or a O ring that fits the stabilizer

To have a even length

i have to get my jades first

other than that there's soon the friction mount o-ring as well as the tadpole mount o-rings

@austere creek not sure who to ask. But this felt like the right place. I'm swapping my stock switches for jades on my 2he and a bunch of the initial srews are underneath switches that I need to open the board to get access to. This has caused one of them to pop out while unscrewing and snap. Is this normal for the 2he?

austere creek
#

the screw snapped?

mossy thorn
#

The switch did

austere creek
#

also none of the screws are under switches

mossy thorn
#

Well uh

#

Pix included. It 100% was under the numpad enter key switch

harsh dove
#

What am I looking at

mossy thorn
#

The screw hole under the enter key for the wooting 2he

#

It's physically under a switch.

I'm glad you guys send 3 extras or I'd be down a key on my lekkers lol

Is this something I should be making a ticket about?

#

Screw 15 on this diagram

austere creek
mossy thorn
#

So mine has a manufacturing defect lol

#

Cool that's what I wanted to confirm

#

The screw literally broke the clips on the lekker above it

#

On the video it looks like there's full clearance

austere creek
#

thats not exactly what i said. id have to check all my two HEs to confirm but my personal one on the desk has enough clearance to unscrew without breaking anything (since i took mine apart more than once)

mossy thorn
#

I mean the video and diagram seem to confirm this, as with every other screw being accessible.

austere creek
#

feel free to email us so it can be validated internally

mossy thorn

100%, just wanted to verify that this isint expected tolerances before clogging up the system more.

Would this work for 60HE in the PSD60?

Nope

Those are standard tray mount holes on a gasket plate

#

Interesting choice

harsh dove
#

Yeah

#

But you think you could just use bigger screws?

#

With bigger heads

#

Like the PCB screws

median spade
#

Nah they’re not in same place as 60he standoffs

harsh dove
#

Ah

#

Cause you had me do that for the Alu frog plate

median spade
#

But I think @wary pollen made a custom plate file for it iirc?

harsh dove
#

Thought it might work

thorn zealot
#

Yeah nvm

median spade
#

Yeah it worked on frog as holes are in same place for 60he

harsh dove
#

Right okay

median spade
#

It was just plate file and standoff holes too big and didn’t know till after

harsh dove

Right

Yeah it works for me fine with the PCB screws luckily

But that sucks that doesn’t have the correct layout for the holes

Looks really close

It’s not that close KekLeo

i ordered wrong plate so i filed a ticket with them to switch but might just have to make custom

harsh dove
#

Just confirmed it with Tenturo

polar girder
#

right ok

#

that's fine

#

go nylon

harsh dove
#

It’s missing screw holes

#

For mounting to the PCB

polar girder
#

right. still have to attach it.

#

good call

#

Tom needs the file to make one tho

harsh dove
#

Yeah

#

Nix has it

polar girder
#

so curious if @wary pollen does indeed have it

#

i'll need to get that ordered ASAP

#

I think he said he only has the nylon in a light grey tho

#

But yeah so I’m on my setup in the stock 60HE plastic case now

#

With the friction mount

#

Kind of like it NGL

#

It doesn’t move on this new mousepad

#

One of the big reasons I wanted the heavier weight of the redux

calm pulsar
#

are there any cool cases with weights apart form redux?

mossy thorn
#

there we go. jades in and man the sound and feel are wildly different. Loving it.

calm pulsar
#

ikr

mossy thorn
#

Absolutely feathery experience on the keypress feel. Very happy with how the software automatically knows to adjust based on the shorter overall travel distance.

calm pulsar
#

I like the frog mini but it seems out of stock

polar girder
#

Unless you like Silver

calm pulsar
#

hmm maybe it'll look good with gmk black snail

polar girder
harsh dove
#

That’d be nice

polar girder
#

Yeah I think so

#

Rather keep it black

#

I don’t like the red of the raptors

#

😤

calm pulsar
#

I wish there were full black Jades

polar girder
#

I want full black new switch

mossy thorn
calm pulsar
#

yup would be great
or at leaasttt bottom housing, so that it is not noticeable underneath keycaps

polar girder
#

I want solid black nylon top and bottom

#

ā€œRGB-lessā€

#

With black Pom stem is fine

#

Whatever spring

#

Maybe some silicone at the bottom so it has reduced travel but still open bottom

#

Maybe even put some silicone in the led pass through

#

🄵

calm pulsar
polar girder
#

lol yeah that’s why I need black opaque matte switch

#

šŸ’Æ

#

Yeah the stock plastic 60HE case stays put on my cloth pad but moved around on my hybrid pad

#

That’s interesting

calm pulsar
#

what kinda pad you got?

polar girder
#

Saturn pro xxl

calm pulsar
#

rather, what specific pad

polar girder
#

Did have the Venus xxl

#

Well still have. Just don’t use

calm pulsar
#

is it kinda like razer strider? slidy, but still closer to a cloth pad?

polar girder
#

Control cloth pad with minimal friction

#

Stay glued but smooth

#

Idk razer strider really

#

I would closest compare it to a soft artisan zero

calm pulsar
polar girder
#

Oh gotcha yeah my Venus was a hybrid

calm pulsar
polar girder
#

Yeah maybe more like a hyate otsu or something

#

Textured hybrid pads are sweet

#

Little faster

harsh dove
polar girder
#

Exciting

harsh dove
#

Just finished talking with some of the reps on the status of my packages , said they should be here tomorrow

calm pulsar
harsh dove
#

Yeah I be whippin switches in the kitchen

#

In them Pyrex dishes

polar girder
#

Next switch I get I’ll probably pick up the l35 springs for them

#

Unless these dual stage springs are all the rage lol

harsh dove
#

Doubt

polar girder
#

Wonder if they change acoustics of the spring

harsh dove
#

I like them cause they black and have a diff spring

polar girder
#

Yeah what is that black switch

harsh dove
#

The black jade or the gugu blacks?

polar girder
#

Gugu

#

Black jades aren’t black

#

Can’t call them that

calm pulsar
#

I ordered L100s with my module, want to see if this allows for more accurate typing experience while keeping the whole HE gaming benefits

harsh dove
#

They are black lol

#

Green on top

#

Very dark green

polar girder
#

Dark green

#

lol

harsh dove
#

But the gugu blacks have a box stem

#

Open bottom

polar girder
#

Oh snap

harsh dove
#

Sound like a regular HE

#

Least that’s what tirade said

polar girder
#

Modified stem and 3.6mm travel

#

Interesting

#

lol right

#

Yeah most of them do havo

harsh dove
#

Yeah all the open bottoms sound about the same tbh

polar girder
#

Stem swapped raptors on top

surreal wing
#

Do I need to buy any additional components apart from the tofu60 redux case for it to be compatible?

polar girder
#

No

Greetings, I have a question... When I assemble my keyboard, should I use the two gold nuts or just one in the case? šŸ™ƒ

smoky breach

calm pulsar
raw stirrup
#

I have seen several tutorials, however, some use both and others only one pepecry

harsh dove
#

Overall, neither of them are needed

#

Sound is better without them imo

#

The less screws the better

raw stirrup
#

That means I can use both and there is no problem? pepesweat

harsh dove
#

Technically yeah

#

When I tray mount, I personally only use 4 screws in total, 2 top right, 2 top left

raw stirrup
#

I think I will do what the video indicates, thank you very much for answering my questions guys pepesalute

sweet oak
#

Or just laziness

#

I will never know

harsh dove
#

Just not as stiff and less dead sound spots

#

Screws add dead sound spots

#

where it sounds different from the rest of the board

#

Super annoying to my ears

sweet oak
#

Ahh, I see. New knowledge

harsh dove
#

Yeah tbh, none of my boards are tray mounted

#

Me no likey

#

Unless you consider the Salvation a tray mount

#

but that's leaf springs

sweet oak
#

All ive had are tray mounted SCWhehehehehe , i never got into custom until getting here

#

80 he would be my first gasket

harsh dove
#

Super fair enough

#

lol

sweet oak
#

Though i wouldnt mind opening up my two he for fun AmphDance

Sound as expected is similar to Raptors, a tad less noisy on top out to me.

calm pulsar
#

is there any black housing closed bottom switch?

tawdry tree
calm pulsar

#

$1/switch

#

While Jades are $40/70 switches

calm pulsar
tawdry tree
#

Oh, $90/70 switches****

#

LOL

calm pulsar
#

thanks!

yeah the price is sick

tawdry tree
#

it’s ridiculous

calm pulsar
#

I see they also have some sort of dual rail switch

#

the white one

harsh dove
tawdry tree
#

Those are white 20Us (can get them for like $40 too)

harsh dove
#

Got mine for $58

#

Everywhere else is like $90

tawdry tree
harsh dove
#

Yeah

#

Since a couple days ago

#

Paying for that FOMO

tawdry tree
#

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

#

FOMO thinking the switches will never be in stock again 😳😳

calm pulsar
#

I assume these are some custom order from gateron, hopefully they will make more

though on AE it says 999pcs are left, so they probably have a ton

#

do boxed stems require specific bottom housings? thinking of a switch that has closed bottom and the boxed stem, not sure how good boxed stems feel tho

tawdry tree
tawdry tree
#

they just add a ā€œboxā€ on top of the stem is what I mean by extending.

calm pulsar
tawdry tree
calm pulsar
#

nice just wanted to ask for a link šŸ˜„

since I was only able to find them on kprepublic which doesnt ship to me

thanks

#

somehow I can't some of the stuff on AE, but I can order it

#

maybe has to do with my region

in 2 days I will be able to get 110 black knights for ~37 bucks

tawdry tree
tawdry tree
calm pulsar
#

nah just saying that this store sells them pretty cheap which is great

tawdry tree
#

Oh I see

calm pulsar
#

tempted to get 70 of black jades and black knights and build a boxed switch with closed buttom, but damn this is getting expensive for switches

tawdry tree
calm pulsar
tawdry tree
# calm pulsar some other combination of switches?

Truly sorry for the absolute dogshit lighting. Using the box stems from the Black Knights doesn’t make much sense because they are more loose in Gateron’s housings if that makes sense. This would work though, the black bottom of the Black Jades with the smokey gold flaked top housing of the Black Knights with Black Knights stems.

calm pulsar
urban harbor
#

switches are coming out so fast, i dont think its worth it to spend so much cash on them unless you want to do research or something

#

I have been very happy with the neo lavenders which were much cheaper than jades

#

just wait until one comes out with the features you want

calm pulsar
#

it probs wont have the black bottom housing like I want

#

im trying to avoid seeing switches completely under the keycaps

tawdry tree
#

or you meant to use only the top housing of the Black Knights and stem and bottom housing of the Black Jades?

calm pulsar
calm pulsar
#

I can always wait ofc, since I'm waiting for my 60he+ module and using 60he non plus atm

might also sell 60he non plus later as well

tawdry tree
#

I would definitely not get the Black Jades for $90. You can get the Black Knights as they’re pretty cheap and try them out.

calm pulsar
#

yeah I thought of checking black knights on their own and also fit standard jades housing on them to see if I like the idea at all

tawdry tree
#

Eh, the Black Knights top housing fits on KS-20/Jades’ bottom housings but not vise versa. šŸ˜‚

calm pulsar
#

sounds like the shaft is a bit different on black knights to the point where it can't align with ks-20 bottom

polar girder
#

lol wtf are black knights

calm pulsar
tawdry tree
tawdry tree
calm pulsar
#

yeah I know, basically which is why I would love to combine them with black jades housing if they get cheaper some time

tawdry tree
#

Yeah

harsh dove
#

Jade Knights Im hearing?

tawdry tree
#

Yes

harsh dove
#

Are you trying to get me to buy GuGus to make a frankenswitch with Black Jades

calm pulsar
#

jade knights... it sounds like something from dark souls

tawdry tree
#

Black Jade Knights to be precise

harsh dove
#

So GuGu top and stem with Black Jade bottom?

calm pulsar
tawdry tree
#

Yes

harsh dove
#

I'll try it out

calm pulsar
#

since you got black jades

harsh dove
#

I wasn't gonna buy GuGus but fuck it

tawdry tree
harsh dove
#

Gotcha

tawdry tree
harsh dove
#

Makes it easier

and more interesting than the Raptors honestly

Kind of keen to try out the friction mount thing wooting has cooking

#

My burger mount is scuffed

calm pulsar
uneven cradle
polar girder
#

Oh is the new optimum collab utilizing a friction fit silicone plate pad?

calm pulsar
#

hmm so are they going to sell orings or something?

#

oh optimum

polar girder
#

Similar to 461E?

untold wigeon
#

Worth the risk? It’s like $125usd when converted

polar girder
calm pulsar
covert vigil
#

whats o-ring needed for tofu60 case?

#

Id never can get that ā€œmountingā€ thing from wooting in my country

untold wigeon
polar girder
#

Yeah that’s neat

#

Yeah same thing as 461E basically

uneven cradle
#

Ilumkb is legit

untold wigeon
harsh dove
#

Main difference being that the 461E has cutouts for the silicone gasket, Optimum60HE does not

uneven cradle
#

It's one of the logos on the gmk packaging

polar girder
#

Available for the optimum case and hopefully at the same time have it as accessory

polar girder
#

I didn’t notice that

harsh dove
#

I'll show it

uneven cradle
#

They said it should fit the tofu60, optimum and the alumaze cases

harsh dove
#

Yeah

polar girder
#

Yeah so it’s more universal

harsh dove
#

Top left and right corner

#

small holes for gasket

polar girder
#

Kinda sweet

#

Yeah I also still want to try that case

#

I’ll wait until yours shows up tho lolz

calm pulsar
harsh dove
#

Yeah

covert vigil
harsh dove
#

No

polar girder
#

What flex

#

Doesn’t change PCB/plate

harsh dove
#

Plate is attached to the PCB, there's no movement between them

#

They move as one unit

covert vigil
#

Then why do you need a gasket? Im new in this

harsh dove
#

Gives a better overall typing feel and sound

#

and a more consistent sound across the board

calm pulsar
#

you think it'll fit freebird60?

harsh dove
#

Yeah

#

It should

uneven cradle
#

Ilumkb has a sale coming up actually might have to šŸ‘€

covert vigil
harsh dove
harsh dove
#

oh 461E

#

Yeah I could see this being in stock but we'll see

uneven cradle
#

Must save money for upcoming GB @harsh dove copium

harsh dove
#

Which one lol

#

Hold up

Is gummy o-ring mount works with screw in stabilizers?

harsh dove
covert vigil
#

There’s a feeling that I shouldn’t order tofu60 now

harsh dove
#

or replace the backspace and spacebar stabs with clip ins

#

then you can use M-size

polar girder
covert vigil
harsh dove
#

I think friction mount is worth it, yeah

polar girder
#

It’s pretty neat. I prefer it to tray mount

#

It can be a little finicky tho

#

Tray mount just works

harsh dove
#

Yeah Bigsly has a stubborn backspace

polar girder
#

Friction mount mostly works lol

harsh dove
#

Lol yeah

polar girder
#

Yeah it’s just not quite as fool proof

#

Tray mount is plug and play ez dum dum

harsh dove
#

I would agree but then I also see people have issues when installing for tray mount lol

polar girder
#

Whoops!

covert vigil
polar girder
harsh dove
#

like forgetting to install the brass standoffs and then trying to insert a screw and wondering why its not working

#

that's about it really

polar girder
#

So AliExpress won’t have it until after that happens at least

covert vigil
polar girder
#

Yeah it’s not out yet

harsh dove
polar girder
#

Oh nvm that’s latest

#

Yeah you might actually lol

harsh dove
#

Yeah lol

#

but you never know

#

hence the /s

polar girder
#

Right right

#

Mid August maybe lol

harsh dove
#

Yeah schedules don't always line up sadly

polar girder
#

But I ended up getting my tofu redux off AliExpress before some people that preordered it last year

harsh dove
#

Hahah nice gigachad

covert vigil
#

Whats od do i need?

polar girder
#

What šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«

covert vigil
#

I’m a newbie at all, I have no idea what o-ring I need for tofu60

harsh dove
#

I think this size works

uneven cradle
harsh dove
#

but it's just silicone sockets that go over the standoffs

#

Pretty neat

uneven cradle
harsh dove
#

I had something like this already from KDB or KRepublic, can't remember but they were thin and could rip easily if overtightened

uneven cradle
#

not sure when the IV Works Umbra is coming out doesn't look like it'll be too soon

harsh dove

#

I think you showed me but lemme see it again

most of the pics on here

Not wooting60he compatible

#

Booooo

calm pulsar

but looks pretty cool

harsh dove
#

Yeah

#

Won't work with Woot

#

Front lip is interesting

uneven cradle
#

yeah unfortunate but I dig the aesthetic

harsh dove
#

Yeah me too

uneven cradle
#

yeah it was initially going to be called Eclipse because it's Berserk inspired

calm pulsar
#

so we feastin on silicone

calm pulsar
loud zephyr
covert vigil
harsh dove
tawdry tree
#

or a softer O-Ring with screws ins is fine too

#

and lastly, a thickness of 5mm is too thick I believe. I have a 3.5 and 4mm and the 4mm doesn’t really fit.
