good mouse

but I have bias

[untold wigeon]

Says right handed ergo but looks like ambidextrous

[devout torrent]

its def ergo

I own one

[shy gate]

what about the ATTACK SHARK R3 mouse

[rapid sedge]

were so back

theyre coming soon🙏🙏

[marsh saffron]

looks like a very very slight incline on the left side

towards the index finger

[devout torrent]

just look at it in eloshapes

its wider on the right than the left

[low fiber]

is oiling up springs in a bag better than lubing them with 205G0 or is there no real difference?

I know putting them in a bag is faster but I dont have that type of oil

and dont wanna spend another 15 bucks for just the oil

[devout torrent]

doesnt matter that much

just use what you got

[harsh dove]

Just don’t go too thick on them with 205, if anything just do the ends of the spring with 205, not the entire spring

[low fiber]

yeah thats what I heard too, just do the ends. but I heard that seeing the white on the springs doesnt matter that much since its more forgiving than other components

[harsh dove]

Yeah I wouldn’t stress too much over it

[low fiber]

I got the JRX 205 G0 lube btw, I dont know if there is a difference in 205G0 lubes

[edgy panther]

whats the best place to get tofu60 redux , i mean best price since from kbd fans it adds like $70 in shipping n import fees which is more than the case itself, aliexpress on other hand is slightly cheaper but still big shipping fee

[elfin garnet]

I'm guessing you're in EU?

[edgy panther]

correct

[elfin garnet]

Croatia by chance?

[edgy panther]

based in spain currently

[elfin garnet]

Alright

You can try https://www.maxgaming.com/

[edgy panther]

thank you

actually the price is fine here

[elfin garnet]

No worries. Glad to hear

[fringe quarry]

everything better then jades yet 🤔

[marsh saffron]

seems to be a preference thing between jades and raw he

see more people preferring raw he lately tho

[fringe quarry]

which one has like less wobble

and is quieter

[uneven cradle]

I don't think either of them are quiet

[elfin garnet]

Raw has less wobble and slightly quieter

But both are loud

[fringe quarry]

hm okay

are the jade minis also gonna release in a wooting compatible version

[cyan zodiac]

cafege

[marsh saffron]

i think there is a compatible version but no eta when its available

[fringe quarry]

oh cool

[flat cobalt]

Quick question 105 lube for the springs, 205 for the actual switch insides and BDZ for the stabilizers?

[fluid ravine]

yeth

Well BDZ for stab wire

[flat cobalt]

Thank you very much

[fluid ravine]

Krytox on Stem and housing for stabs

[flat cobalt]

thank you!

Same dude printed my mouse I use

Haven’t tried that one tho. Too narrow for me

[fringe quarry]

thats a mouse

[untold wigeon]

I thought it looked familiar

[fluid ravine]

But not a keyboard

[fringe quarry]

[hard moon]

@stray tiger here are some details to the Omni switches by ShitSeries i found out personally.
• Stem: POM
• similar, if not same force as the Magnetic Jades
• compatible with every Wooting keyboard

however, in order to even use the omni switches you have to either desolder the RGBs since they're routed through the housing or destroy the switches entirely and harvest the springs and stems, which are compatible with the housing of the lekker switches

can't confirm the compatibility of them with the Lekker V2s rn, but the V1 and V1.5 housings are compatible

[steady wedge]

can i upload my wooting soundtest here

[hard moon]

sure, go ahead

[steady wedge]

raw he on wooting sound test

everything stock except switches

[devout torrent]

Very good

[quiet bay]

way better than jades

[fringe quarry]

will the 80 have a good sounding space bar

[fluid ravine]

fr

[quiet bay]

well noone has it yet

[fluid ravine]

yet again both sound similar but i can def say raw's have a cleaner sound to it

[fringe quarry]

can u get one rn and test it for me

[quiet bay]

sorry man I dont work at wooting 😔

[fringe quarry]

pwease 🥺

[quiet bay]

also didnt order one cause im a brokie 😭

[fringe quarry]

same

[quiet bay]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-cats-cat-meme-meme-meme-cat-gif-14470917232397934693

[fringe quarry]

ignore the icon and color

[steady wedge]

here's a dynamic mic version

[hard moon]

a bit too clacky imo

[quiet bay]

it's okay even if the 80he spacebar sounds bad you still have the ability to tune the stabs

the stock spacebar should atleast be tolerable though

[uneven cradle]

embrace clack

[quiet bay]

im waiting for frijoles to get his raws to see how they sounds on cerakeys

[fringe quarry]

is there anybody using a wooting without the case

[hard moon]

ask those who use a holy60

[fluid ravine]

Is u a thocc person or is u a clac person

[fringe quarry]

nah like as a lower profile "mod"

idk just laying it on something

or putting rubber feet on the board

[fluid ravine]

thats uh interesting...

hmm

kinda funni thinking abt it

[hard moon]

some clackiness is fine, but please not something that sounds like a freaking typewriter

[fringe quarry]

maybe i should try it

[fluid ravine]

lul

[flat cobalt]

Whaaa

[hard moon]

the Raw HE imo definitely need a bit more dampening

[fluid ravine]

Cus shit i dont find that thing "clacky", its giving a semi clack but with a hint of deepness or what not, imo

[fringe quarry]

do you have to be careful with like static

[quiet bay]

In that case the only thing that'd be protecting my pcb is the tape 😂

[fluid ravine]

and your foam

Foam board

[fringe quarry]

does it need protection...

[fluid ravine]

no case

just foam

[quiet bay]

Always use protection

[fringe quarry]

your poor keyboard

[fluid ravine]

[light agate]

OMG IT CAME SO FAST ??

[hard moon]

as said, just ask the people who use a Holy60 case. They can record a sound test. That thing is basically just a piece of wires holding everything together

[fringe quarry]

idc about the sound

more like general usability

[fluid ravine]

then thats a interesting question abt having no case

[fringe quarry]

headphone mod is the best sound improvement

[hard moon]

rather a weird one. I wouldn't use a keyboard without a case on any metal surface

[flat cobalt]

Super speedy!

[quiet bay]

ooh

colorful

[fluid ravine]

berry fun looking keycap

[light agate]

AHHHH they're so cute !!!

[hard flower]

How do you prevent scratching the sides of the caps when removing them? The included tool seems pretty abrasive

[cold bloom]

I find that the wire style keycap pullers work the best generally

https://www.amazon.ca/Keyboard-Keycaps-Switchs-Replacement-Long-Lasting/dp/B0CTCRP8FW/?

[hard flower]

Sweet, thank you, I'll check it out

[fluid ravine]

Yeah the plastic puller kind looking keycap puller damages dem keycaps pretty easily

[cold bloom]

the wire style ones go around the edges and under so you can pull it up and off

instead of trying to catch onto the edges themselves

[hard flower]

Yeah, that seems like it'd work a lot better

[hard moon]

or go crazy and buy some stuff to take your keyboard apart in style and with speed

[cold bloom]

those switch pullers are great but I dont love the keycap puller as much

the wire ones are cheap af but work so well

esp for mods

[flat cobalt]

Very very cute c:

[hard moon]

definitely agree, the keycap puller is ass when the keycaps are tighter

however, the switch puller is a freaking beast

destroyed the entire Apex Pro Mini with it and it still works like it's been just unpacked

[polar girder]

That’s fun

[cold bloom]

I do need that switch opener tho

[flat cobalt]

Just debating if I should lube switches or not vv now

[cold bloom]

it's so badass

[quiet bay]

what switches u got?

[hard moon]

technically it's just a fancy nut cracker

[flat cobalt]

Jades vv even got this cute little switch opener

[hard moon]

but compared to those dice switch openers it's definitely a whole different level and your fingers won't hurt

[fluid ravine]

Yet till this day... I still don't have a switch opener

[steady wedge]

w<

[fluid ravine]

It's insane

[quiet bay]

u dont have a switch puller?...

[fluid ravine]

mb broski

opener*

[hard moon]

You don't have a switch puller?!?

Get outta here!

[fluid ravine]

opener

[quiet bay]

was about to say aint no way you took all those lekkers out without a puller 💀

[fluid ravine]

i got caught in the subject and forgot what i was typing

[flat cobalt]

Whaa

[quiet bay]

have you been opening them with your fingernails or smth 😭

[hard moon]

ain't no keeb modder without an opener either

[fluid ravine]

[fluid ravine]

screwdriver lol...

[hard moon]

you've forfeit your right to call yourself a modder either way, man

[quiet bay]

[fluid ravine]

CMONNNNNNNNNNNN

Done so much yet to get thrown away

[quiet bay]

you def damaged some of those raws 😭

[fluid ravine]

hail no

Not one bit

Am precise

[quiet bay]

o lawd were you extra careful with em

[crisp imp]

do l45s come pre lubed?

[quiet bay]

ye factory lubed

[crisp imp]

alr w

[fluid ravine]

cmon pochi ive been doing this since day 1!

[crisp imp]

will i ever need to relube switches?

[hard moon]

opening switches with a small flathead is just pure insanity and a test of patience...

[fluid ravine]

yknow me :(

[crisp imp]

like after a year or so etc

[hard moon]

so respect for that

[quiet bay]

well im a future dementia patient with the amount of things I've been forgetting

friggin forgot where I put my phone like 3 times today

[fluid ravine]

oh lawd

[hard moon]

spare yourself the trouble and get a switch opener tho

they're like 5 bucks these days

[fluid ravine]

link

[hard moon]

ebay?!?

[fluid ravine]

i see $10-15 on my side

iirc

lemme check

yeah he fuck no

shipping just made it worst

[fluid ravine]

ask my dad we goooo

[quiet bay]

hek u could prolly 3d print that too

[fluid ravine]

disappointing how the kit i bought doesnt come with a switch opener

frigin microcenter

[quiet bay]

dang

I just bought the kits from wooting

didnt wanna bother with buying from another company cuz I'd have to pay more shipping >:v

[hard moon]

well, either that or get the fancy nut cracker pliers from Gateron for 30

pretty sure it's up to the task of cracking walnuts

[loud rose]

is two layers of tape enough

[hard moon]

2-3 is recommended

[loud rose]

[hard moon]

not more than 3 tho, because you'd have issues getting the screws in

[loud rose]

yep, got two already just wanted to check haha

[quiet bay]

if u just make holes you can do up to 5 layers

that's only if u want to tho xD

[hard moon]

i'm using 3 layers and was barely able to screw it down

[loud rose]

does more layers = better sound

[hard moon]

nope, at some point there's no point in adding more layers

[loud rose]

fair enough

what other mods are there that could sound better

[hard moon]

bandaid, burger mount, friction mount, rubber bottom

[quiet bay]

switch swapping out of lekkers

[hard moon]

there are a lot of mods for sound

[quiet bay]

or do the super grueling mod to make lekkers sound better

c:

[hard moon]

gl with that... i gave up and decided to go with Jades

[cold bloom]

Raw HE gang

[flat cobalt]

I think I bought the wrong stabilizers ._. since it says TKL set

[cold bloom]

nah that's fine

tkl just means it fits up to a tkl

[flat cobalt]

Ohhhh ok ty vv

[shell orchid]

\\

[polar girder]

If they’re well lubed I would still probably oil the springs. But that’s just me

[untold wigeon]

@cold bloom I’ll be trying 100g Raws when I get them.

[flat cobalt]

vv Mmmmm maybe I'll just do that then

[cedar gate]

Please don't bandaid mod Wooting

[cedar gate]

It makes it weird and mushy

[loud rose]

don't worry, I have a dd and won't bandaid mod it

[cedar gate]

Thank God you would have ruined your kb

[loud rose]

what would happen if i ba modded a wooting keeb

[cedar gate]

All the stab keys would be mushy and unpleasant

[cedar gate]

STABILIZERS:

Q. Do I need to replace or modify the stabilizers and which stabilizers should I buy?

A. The stock stabilizers are great! Most people find them comparable to Durock brand stabilizers in both quality and feel. While the stabilizers do come lubed from the factory, lubing them yourself is a great way to get them feeling and sounding even better. Common mods aimed at fixing very noisy or rattling stabilizers bars (e.g. Holee Mod, Bandaid Mod or Stabilizer Clipping) are rarely ever needed on the Wooting keyboards and have been known to produce undesirable results in some cases. If you still have the urge to replace your stabilizers, be sure to select quality plate-mount stabilizers for the 60HE (screw-in and clip-in stabilizers are only supported on the 60HE+ module). Additionally, be sure your new stabs include a 6.25u size spacebar wire and are for 1.6mm thick PCB's.

For understanding how to properly lube and tube your stabilizers I high recommend this video from alexotos - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxHb6CJc9V8

Thockfathers info on stabs if it helps

[loud rose]

ty

[fluid ravine]

Oh shi Dan, got my confused with the pfp change xd

[jade storm]

Brother.

[fluid ravine]

Wsg Brother

[jade storm]

not much, recording as usual

Did I tell you which board I'm looking to buy?

it's called the HM66, kinda cool

[jade storm]

https://www.gateron.com/products/sikakeyb-castle-hm66-he-custom-keyboard

[fluid ravine]

HE board?

holeh 230

[tawdry tree]

Hm enjoyer!!! 🥰

[fluid ravine]

Oh shi KS20 compatible?

[tawdry tree]

Of course

[jade storm]

comes with Jades

[fluid ravine]

GH60 layout as well?!

[tawdry tree]

That’s the benefit of 64% boards.

[fluid ravine]

Wait hollup is there any vids on this board?

actually more curious abt it

[tawdry tree]

The utility of a 65% in a 60% form.

[tawdry tree]

Yeah, mostly in Japanese though.

https://youtu.be/7UpqfUwUNd4?si=VaMRoK6DC0RTOp7w

[jade storm]

fuck a right shift

[fluid ravine]

real

[tawdry tree]

imagine using right shift 🤣🤣🤣

[fluid ravine]

Yet i still make sure it sounds fine

[tawdry tree]

If all keys don’t sound good, the board doesn’t sound good. That’s a given.

[fluid ravine]

fr

[devout torrent]

only reason I dont get one is because I am a right shift user LOL

[tawdry tree]

Gotta chance perfection always.

[tawdry tree]

😂😂 I start to pay attention to it more and more and a lot of people use rshift

[devout torrent]

I think Calder or someone on wooting team is r shift user

which is why 80HE is based w/ normal right shift

[fluid ravine]

@jade storm Gonna put this in a tofu phlipps?

[tawdry tree]

it’s pretty crazy to me but if you learnt it like that I get it

[tawdry tree]

80HE based with normal waste of space rshift is cause they wanted a “standard” layout.

Or compatible with standard layout keycap sets I should say

[fluid ravine]

Oh damn their switch tester is actually pretty cool

[tawdry tree]

being able to see fluctuations is neat

[fluid ravine]

yup

[jade storm]

yessir

[uneven cradle]

standard 60% is just so clean looking imo

[jade storm]

nah

[jade storm]

PLIPPSTOFU

[uneven cradle]

also paying wooting money for a board which will have 0 customer support and machine translated software that has to be downloaded just don't make sense to me

[jade storm]

1u right shift tho

[fluid ravine]

mbmb

[uneven cradle]

i don't even like 65% and 75% layouts for the same reason just too cluttered imo

[tawdry tree]

If you look at a house that’s poorly furnished, it’s not a nice look right? That’s ANSI for you right there, at least with a 64% there’s not that much wasted space.

200yo layout my god.

That shi been expired lol

[trim bolt]

How do u tighten this?

[blazing spear]

is the wooting gasket mounted? and if not can i put a gummy o-ring mod on it?

[tawdry tree]

You screw in the standoffs.

In between the PCB and plate.

[uneven cradle]

the analogy ain't hitting for me, all i'm seeing is a house which is too cluttered and messy looking

[tawdry tree]

Only the 80HE will be. The 60HE you can gummy mount, yes.

[blazing spear]

alright thanks

[trim bolt]

Do you know what screws?

[fluid ravine]

The KBDfan Plate kit should come with some standoffs

[tawdry tree]

M2 screws, it should come with that plate I think?

[fluid ravine]

https://kbdfans.com/products/kbdfans-m2-3-countersunk-flat-head-screw-kit

like these

it should come with the plate

[trim bolt]

Oh those

[tawdry tree]

This shit taking up your entire living room space is exactly what I see when looking at ANSI.

[fluid ravine]

Personally.. I dont see the picture but i think i know what you mean

[jade storm]

I see it

(biased)

[uneven cradle]

still cursed

[trim bolt]

Who’s an expert in modding here. Can i pm you

[jade storm]

MEEEE

[uneven cradle]

There is now a grid in the bottom right of the keyboard. A sin has been made

kinda looks like that couch now

[blazing spear]

it says the wooting 60he module comes with a silicone sandwich pad, im new to the keyboard hobby, what is a sandwich pad? is a sandwich pad the thing in the picture?

[uneven cradle]

it's the layer between the pcb and plate yeah

[blazing spear]

how do i exchange it for the poron pad?

[uneven cradle]

im assuming you have the module?

[blazing spear]

no i wanna order it with the poron pad

you cant do that?

[uneven cradle]

it comes with both if you get the module

[blazing spear]

oh alright cool

perfect thanks!

[uneven cradle]

no worries

[blazing spear]

and im assuming it doesnt already have these? https://www.aliexpress.us/item/1005004516032934.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.53.52815f448gRqRF&algo_pvid=867b672f-ad21-4e18-b379-ab1d8172523b&algo_exp_id=867b672f-ad21-4e18-b379-ab1d8172523b-26&pdp_npi=4%40dis!AUD!6.97!6.19!!!4.47!3.97!%402101f01817226666616448125e6e59!12000029441557976!sea!AU!3070760534!ABX&curPageLogUid=HfJAQIE651wK&utparam-url=scene%3Asearch|query_from%3A

alright thanks

[heavy escarp]

please forgive my ignorance i am new to keyboard stuff but the GUGU Black Knight Magnetic Switches are comparable with any keycaps that work with cherry mx keycaps? i see the plus shape but the box around the plus doesn’t affect compatibility right?

[harsh dove]

Yeah they work fine with any mx keycaps

[heavy escarp]

ok awesome

thank you

[lapis gyro]

Folks I've been out of the loop for a really long time, what are the opinions on lubing the stock W2 stabs as compared to just replacing them with aftermarket options?

I've read on here, somewhere, that the current stock stabs are fairly decent, has there been a change when compared to the original models?

[broken lance]

does anyone have a sound test for the black knight magnetic switches they can send me?

[somber lantern]

does anybody have recommendation for KeyCaps?

[dire apex]

Cerakeys sound hella nice

[tidal frigate]

All depends on your budget

[somber lantern]

budget is like 50 to 70 i would say

[tidal frigate]

Higher budget is you have more options

[somber lantern]

too expensive, also they break kinda easy no?

how about them?

https://www.alexotos.com/keyboard-vendor-list/

Look trough vendors

[flat cobalt]

Are these the stabs that fit a bit too big?

[drifting bronze]

Wait does the 70pack of jades come in a round container or only the big pack does?

[viscid gulch]

Hello! Regarding the tofu 60 redux case which standoff screws should i put in? I've seen people put all 3 screws in and seen people put zero screws and people only put the spacebar standoff in

[flat cobalt]

I put the one in by the spacebar and that was it

Ty man

[flat cobalt]

[flat cobalt]

Wanna hand lube my switches, but seeing videos and how long it takes

https://tenor.com/view/car-garn47-nugget-gif-14908141187228237346

[polar girder]

It’s a right of passage

Paid for Alu plate

Hype

[flat cobalt]

;3; I'm doing it since I need to stay up for a few hours to reset my sleep schedule

[polar girder]

lol yeah it takes a while

Just have to sit back and relax

I think I did mine in a couple sittings

[drifting bronze]

Wait is it normal that my jades come in a flat box?

[quiet gale]

there are no Two HE metal cases? from other companies?;c

[polar girder]

Correct

Not that I’m aware of anyway

I’ve seen some custom projects. But no real production

[quiet gale]

any1 has a dwg from the wooting two he case? i might just custom request it from aluiminium block from my high school(they have a few cnc machines) should come down to same price

[flat cobalt]

I opened 10 switches, lubed 1, closed them and put them all back. I'm not doing this

[polar girder]

[quiet gale]

XDD

ngl i was thinking of buying a lube set, but think i would do the same. gonna buy pre lubed and call it a day

[flat cobalt]

It's too much

[flat cobalt]

At least I can swap keycaps again lol since I took them off

[quiet gale]

u can just get like a 10 or 20 set and replace ur most used keys like wasd

[weak ravine]

geon 60 is not by rakka, it is from someone else

[half pumice]

howzit, What type of custom keycaps fit on the Wooting 60 HE

[polar girder]

Pretty much all of them

Except for some low profile type or something

Standard MX stem housing keycaps should work

[half pumice]

like these - Doubleshot PBT
176 keys
Cherry Profile
MX Switch Compatible

is it necessary to lube your switch?

[flat cobalt]

Just wanted to experiment vv with the hand lubing but too op for me

Took it with the RGB on instead

[trim bolt]

How do you get quietter spacebar?

[tidal frigate]

Any keycaps you like

[polar girder]

Tee hee. Looks cute.

[rocky folio]

Do you guys have any idea of how i could add custom rgb via code ?

I am open to any solution

[untold wigeon]

Yo guys, entirely new to modding here trying to build my first keyboard, could anyone let me know if this build is fine & if I need any tools to put it all together?

[flat cobalt]

[ionic breach]

just lube 1 a day

[flat cobalt]

[paper crag]

LOOOOL

All you're gonna need is a screwdriver my man

Can I recommend buying some extra foam

And cutting it to size

If you put the wooting one inside the tofu it doesn't fill every gap

U might hear emptiness in some places basically

[untold wigeon]

is there any other case you would recommend that comes with the appropriate amount of foam :D

[paper crag]

Tofu60 redux is a solid heavy case imo

However when u transfer the wooting foam in

There'll be slight space round the edges

If you want to fill that void u can with some extra foam

[formal panther]

Oh I c. Will it be using the yee yee ass Korean software?

[stray tiger]

Gotta decide which board gets xray

Should have kept my Sirius60 HE

[uneven cradle]

Remove all foam it's clack time

[old swallow]

ooooh. mine should arrive today. i think imma use it with my Neo65, if i ever actually get it

[spare tartan]

can you send me a link to those caps?

[stray tiger]

It's PBTFans X-ray

[spare tartan]

thanks i want to check them out on a board 😛

Oooooh! What do we have here!

[quiet bay]

oh damnn that red is nice

[untold wigeon]

Dude! Huge W box opening experience from Artisan. Great packaging

[untold wigeon]

It’s sweet!

[tired frigate]

Large?

[untold wigeon]

Yessir

[tired frigate]

Yeah I think large is big enough lol

And you ordered Amazon?

[untold wigeon]

Smaller than I thought it would be because we did measure but it’s perfectly fine

[tired frigate]

How much if you don’t mind me asking?

[untold wigeon]

Grabbed it off Amazon for $7 over retail. Got here in 1 day

[quiet bay]

not bad

[tired frigate]

Nicee

[untold wigeon]

$67

[tired frigate]

I think personally I will go with the zero

[untold wigeon]

This is my first one. I like it so far. Feels nice

[paper crag]

Zero soft

Goated

[tired frigate]

Yep

Zero soft

In orange

Lol

[remote cairn]

Which one is this?

[untold wigeon]

Otsu

[remote cairn]

Oh yeah, one of the best, if not the best, I’m looking forward to the V2 before ordering

[pulsar grotto]

😭🙏

[next trout]

i bought the 60he+

the keyboard, not the module

can i still mod?

just double checking

[pulsar grotto]

Yeah

[stone flax]

yeah its the same thing as the module just pre-assembled in their case

[next trout]

it's the same module, right?

[stone flax]

ye

[next trout]

yeah thats what i thought

[hollow tapir]

do cherry profile caps work on the 2he?

[stone flax]

ye

[pulsar grotto]

Get the pcb out and fully mod it

[rocky folio]

Do you guys have any idea of how i could add custom rgb via code ?

[stone flax]

i dont think wootings open source

[rapid crypt]

This might be a silly question but im thinking about getting the two he, and just wanna make sure. Do all wooting switches (both lekker swtich Linear 60/45 and the magnetic jade switches) work on all wooting keyboards?

[stone flax]

ye

[remote cairn]

Depends on where you live but delivery is 25€ + customs and VAT, so it’s pretty much the same

[rapid crypt]

okay thanks!

[stone flax]

safe to assume any switch sold on wootings site will work btw

[rapid crypt]

i figured as much but just wanted to make 100% sure, thanks though

[granite comet]

get one from the wooting store itself

[rocky folio]

No neee for open source i just wanna control it

[stone flax]

through wootility

[rocky folio]

Using code ?

[stone flax]

nope just their settings

[pulsar grotto]

Lmao

[pulsar grotto]

Here is free so is ok but on other stuff the price dif is HUGE

[granite comet]

sorry artisan

I can get 2 pads shipped from artisan for the same price as those amazon ones

[pulsar grotto]

I can't order from the normal site bc they won't let me even add them to ther cart

I have to try again

[granite comet]

you are probably on the weong version of their site, its an odd setup they have

[pulsar grotto]

Can you send me the link you use ?

[granite comet]

https://www.artisan-jp.com/cs-hien-eng.html

[untold wigeon]

Artisan was $52 I paid $59

[rocky folio]

Well obviously i knew that and that's why i askedbif i could do it using code

[granite comet]

I paid 63$ aud a pad every time I have had ine shipped

[lethal shadow]

i bought artisan mousepad from maxgaming today for 65

[pulsar grotto]

2 for free shipping ?

[granite comet]

nah 2 for the same price of shipping

[untold wigeon]

Amazon can be pricey but you have to search and really dig. You can find reasonably priced ones

[lethal shadow]

just check on maxgaming they send internationaly

low on stocks tho

[untold wigeon]

Plus with prime I got next day delivery. Best part.

[lethal shadow]

this part is nice

[stone flax]

and i said nah

[lethal shadow]

its weird artisan dont have real retailer in EU

maybe dont have capacity

[granite comet]

they are picky with retailers

[rocky folio]

Yeah np sorry for being a lil aggressive

[granite comet]

like they dont sell on lgg anymore hecause they came competitors and shit like that

[lethal shadow]

lgg saturn pro is very nice mousepad

but cost same as artisans

im surprised no uwu on mousepad from japan

[pulsar grotto]

146$

[lethal shadow]

customs duty not included

+21%

[pulsar grotto]

💀

[lethal shadow]

also if you dont know how to do papers, its also will cost

atleast in EU

[pulsar grotto]

I will just wait for one on the amazon site then

[lethal shadow]

i bought from NA something because it was 20 eur cheaper than EU, in the end i paid 10 Eur more 😄

[hollow tapir]

sorry for offtopic, but is there a simple way to find out which keycaps what wooting keyboard is compatible with

[pulsar grotto]

I need a soft hayate otsu at large as posible so idk bc they get bought very fast

[lethal shadow]

just check here: https://www.maxgaming.com/en/pc-accessories/mousepads#{"F1186":"1","FVarum":"Artisan"}

shipping 8 eur

[pulsar grotto]

Is the hien better or nah ?

[lethal shadow]

Hien and Zero is one the best

all of their mats are Stier

[pulsar grotto]

74€ total

[lethal shadow]

but all taxes included

i doubt you find anything cheaper in EU or NA

[pulsar grotto]

I will get it from there but rn I need to focus on my pc and monitor
I have 2.9€ and idk what to get rn

[lethal shadow]

you have only 3 eur?

[pulsar grotto]

2.9k

My bad

[lethal shadow]

i would just buy coffee and crossan

[pulsar grotto]

2900 💀

[lethal shadow]

oh, okay 😄

[pulsar grotto]

Maybe switch the monitor for a cheap 240hz

Also I will the cpu only at 330-360

408 is too much

If I was in the us I could get much better deals

The import fees are way to much

300$ for 1 7.4kg monitor

[lethal shadow]

someone helped you build pc? they checked compatibilities

[pulsar grotto]

Nah but I looked on pc part picker

And I am planing on geting a new one for 1-2 years

[pulsar grotto]

This is only 2.4k

[lethal shadow]

because you also need to check if motherboard has enough power phases for cpu, etc , etc

its not only if parts able to connect

[pulsar grotto]

I just added this one but I am plaing on buying it in 1-2 days max

[lethal shadow]

just double check and go to forum or discord there people could advice you

[pulsar grotto]

I will check all the parts to see if they work

[pulsar grotto]

I will prob buy a better motherboard if I get a cheaper monitor

Some ppl said if I get a high hz monitor to get a smaller one bc of the pixel density and if I get the oled 27 inchs is fine

@lethal shadow what monitor do you have ?

[lethal shadow]

i have pg279qm, no issues so far, but i bet its something cheaper and better right now. i bought it in 2021

[untold wigeon]

So question… I just got this new switch opener. Is there a trick to getting the bottom housing to release without pulling really hard on the housing?

I think I figured it out. Have to pinch the tabs together.

[pulsar grotto]

The 240hz ips asus one ?

[untold wigeon]

Also W wife coming in clutch with the great gift! Toolbox to store all my keyboard stuff. She’s awesome!

[granite comet]

that is the one

woled imo beats qdoled by a mile in terms of looks

asus have the new 480hz version of it coming out later in q3 / early q4

both matte and glossy finish are offered on it

[normal schooner]

your wife finds a toolbox with lekker sprinfs

ok

flex

[quiet bay]

I just press the stem down

for my switch opener atleast

[heavy escarp]

thoughts on the awekeys metal set?

[normal schooner]

im investigating the negative impact of metal keys on the hall effect. stand by

and with I , I mean im asking simon

[untold wigeon]

lol. No. I had all the stuff already. Just the toolbox.

[untold wigeon]

Extremely expensive. And I’m a Cerakey and GMK owner. That’s saying something.

[fluid ravine]

[woeful dragon]

Anybody have any advice to pick between alumaze and tofu60?

[marsh saffron]

Tofu imo

I found it produces a deeper sound, alumaze sounds more hollow

It's also cleaner looking imo as it's not fat as fuck on one side

I don't like how alumaze is extra thick for the accent (also not a fan of the accent)

[woeful dragon]

I agree, I'm not a big fan of the accent either, I was interested in stuff like sound / build quality so thanks a lot for the help!

[marsh saffron]

Although I miss my custom strap I'm very glad I went with a tofu redux over an alumaze

[rapid sedge]

tbh same i dont like the extra stuff on the left side, the strap is cool but not for me

[marsh saffron]

I really like having a strap, it's nice. But I just hate the fat left side and the accent

[untold wigeon]

There is another aluminum case that has a provision for the strap but I’m blanking on the name

[rapid sedge]

true tbh

[marsh saffron]

GameZone Aim60 on AliExpress

It's a tofu ripoff with a strap holder

[rapid sedge]

imagine they actually make a tofu on the site with the strap holder

thatd be cool tbh

[marsh saffron]

Would suck because then I'd need to try and sell my tofu

[rapid sedge]

everyting needs sacrifice

its just this part i dont like

on the alumaze

[heavy escarp]

remember it’s not beautiful because it lasts, it’s beautiful because you’re 400 bucks in so what’s a new case

[untold wigeon]

That’s the one.

[rapid sedge]

me with my pc tbh

[heavy escarp]

the copper set is made of cupronickel which is non magnetic so i don’t think it should affect the performance of the switches

[heavy escarp]

lmao i got a full mesh case so i don’t look at it

then i don’t worry about how it looks

[rapid sedge]

i just need to change my fans for the lian li 120s

[heavy escarp]

oh i did get those tho

[rapid sedge]

bcs my corsair ones got fucked so i cant even change them on the app

[heavy escarp]

so maybe it didn’t work too well after all

[rapid sedge]

so im stuck with the full rgb

[heavy escarp]

the infinities look so good

[rapid sedge]

thats what i wanna buy

cause you can daisy chain them too

[heavy escarp]

yee

i got 3 reverse 3 normal

[rapid sedge]

cause originally i wanted to change the rgb and it didnt work

so its hard to look at

especially with a glass case

[heavy escarp]

oh that’s rough

[rapid sedge]

just flashing colors

ik

[heavy escarp]

yeah the daisy chain and the included hub from the 3 pack made setup so light

[stone elbow]

i wanted to get the tofu redux but tofu redux with brass weight costed way more than alumaze60 cuz i needed to pay another shipping fee

[heavy escarp]

dayum

one time i got hit with 5 taxes on an online order

[rapid sedge]

how so??

[heavy escarp]

i was about to just not buy it

[rapid sedge]

i have a tofu 60 redux with the brass weight it costed me 107

the alumaze runs me 200

[heavy escarp]

i think the alumaze on sale rn

could be mistaken tho

[rapid sedge]

no

full price

[stone elbow]

i was already buying the module so alumaze was on sale and i'm already paying shipping with wooting

[rapid sedge]

okay then thats why

[untold wigeon]

This makes no sense.

Comes out to $3.61

[rapid sedge]

for me the tofu was cheaper

[rapid sedge]

poopoo quality maybe

[marsh saffron]

Definitely not a legitimate listing

Iirc it costs like 170 ish cad

[untold wigeon]

Other places it’s like $131.00

[rapid sedge]

maybe youll get hammered with fees

[stone elbow]

or maybe the product is a miniature size of it lol

[rapid sedge]

def

[untold wigeon]

US is duty free up to $1,600

[heavy escarp]

itx keyboard time

for those with extra small fingers

[rapid sedge]

baby keyboard

start em young

[stone elbow]

idk man, most likely they'll choke on the parts

[untold wigeon]

$3.61 its almost worth it. But then again they’ll probably steal your identity and empty your bank account

[rain harbor]

has anyone tried this for instead of burger mount?

[fickle bear]

How do I stem swap? I have Geon Raptors and L60s that I need to stem swap with. Is the process easy?

[marsh saffron]

Just use the lekker stems instead of raptors

It's just changing 1 piece out

[untold wigeon]

Open switches, swap stems, close switches

[fickle bear]

i just open the switches and swap the part?

[fickle bear]

alright

[fluid ravine]

Not for burger mount, this is just to cover the standoff so the pcb doesn't have direct contact with the aluminum standoff.

[marsh saffron]

Why burger mount when you can just gummy oring mount

[untold wigeon]

Yes

[fluid ravine]

ye lol

[rain harbor]

they seem to dampen the sound too no?

it's not direct metal to metal contact with these

[fluid ravine]

No, not exactly

[rain harbor]

should i get those if I mount in tofu?

[fluid ravine]

To burger mount?

[rain harbor]

in general

[marsh saffron]

Friction mount >

[fluid ravine]

Ah, well i don't know how much of a difference it makes but to protect the standoff and pcb yeah sure

[rain harbor]

not sure which mount I'll get, I want friction mount but I can't find the oring...

[fluid ravine]

Even if you were to gummy mount it i would get it to cover the standoff lol

[marsh saffron]

Probably costs about the same too

[rain harbor]

I'm in europe and shipping of graveshift and bakeneko60 oring is 3 times more than the actual oring bro

[marsh saffron]

I used medical tape and did my own scuffed standoff covers

[fluid ravine]

yeah i saw that you did, i did the same

[marsh saffron]

Mine was 7$ but I ordered from a local place in my country

[marsh saffron]

Mine looks a bit scuffed but it works pretty good

[fluid ravine]

I didn't know how you do it so i just slap a thin piece on there

[rain harbor]

r u somewhere in europe?

[marsh saffron]

Canada

[fluid ravine]

Yeah at the same time i dont think it matters for me cus i use polyfill

[rain harbor]

did you get graveshift or any other dedicated oring or you figured out the size?

[fluid ravine]

covers the standoffs anyways

[marsh saffron]

I did like 3-5 layers over all the standoffs and 2 layers around the edges where the tofu has the tabs for the foam to sit

[marsh saffron]

Ah I have tofu foam

[pulsar grotto]

What do you prefer ?

[marsh saffron]

Graveshift

[fluid ravine]

Ig ima do layers for no reason then lol

[marsh saffron]

Size m, 45a

[rain harbor]

yeah it's simply too expensive to get one for me

[fluid ravine]

i got the bakeneko60 30a

[pulsar grotto]

I don't have a lot of lights in my room and no ambien lights so glossy would be fine

[fluid ravine]

Does the tofu foam like sit lower than the standoff and posts?

(if you dont mind can i get a picture )

[marsh saffron]

Yes it does but only slightly

[fickle bear]

Do stablizers affect sound? Are the ones in the Wooting worth swapping for?

[fluid ravine]

ohhh haha, i did not expect that

[marsh saffron]

Wootings stock ones are very good

[marsh saffron]

It definitely ain't pretty

[fickle bear]

Perfect. Any must have mods I should do?

[fluid ravine]

oh man, i thought you like cut tiny pieces and cover the standoffs

lol

[marsh saffron]

Nah I covered everything and with excessive amounts

[fluid ravine]

sheesh

tried polyfill? ;)

@marsh saffron what I thought you did in the second photo

[marsh saffron]

Yeah no mines scuffed and excessive

[marsh saffron]

Not yet but I want to

[fluid ravine]

you shoulddd

polyfill da 🐐

[marsh saffron]

How does it change the sound

[fluid ravine]

I can say its not as dense as the wooting foam, so you can imagine it less louder or poppier (not by alot)

Makes friction mount alot softer

you can bounce/flex the board with it

[marsh saffron]

Yeah the foam definitely lessens the flex/bounce

[fluid ravine]

yea

wait thats not a good wording hollup

There is a tiny flex with the tofu/wooting foam, its not too noticeable but its there

[rain harbor]

btw. size m for plate mounted stabs and size s for screw ins, right?

[normal schooner]

cam

[marsh saffron]

I believe so yeah

[marsh saffron]

Yeah it's minimal

[normal schooner]

@harsh dove boss

[harsh dove]

They're actually pretty great

Can't deny

[harsh dove]

They’re the closest we have to an mx switch rn

[fluid ravine]

yessirrr

[harsh dove]

Until further notice

[fluid ravine]

Idk what the manufacturers can do to make it better or closer

[normal schooner]

leave that to wooting

[fluid ravine]

I'm just lost at this point

[harsh dove]

Different materials and some new designs possibly

And have RAW HE tolerance or better

[fluid ravine]

The v2's are catching ears, my ears especially 👀

[harsh dove]

Yeah looking forward to trying those

[fluid ravine]

Better is wild for me rn

cus damn i think this shi good enough

[normal schooner]

the v2s will be here soon

[fluid ravine]

already imagining what it sounds like

Am prepared

i want bets >:(

[fickle bear]

I heard about the V2s improving sound and stem wobble. Any performance increase?

[normal schooner]

bro its a switch

not a cpu

[fickle bear]

I know but like magnet strength or something idk

Why the fuck is my backspace louder than everything else

[drifting bronze]

Hi guys I have a question about wich case would you guys recommend the most holy he alumaze or the tofu 60 redux

[paper crag]

A thick layer

of lubricant

on all parts

including spring

(not so its slow to come up tho)

[harsh dove]

Could be hitting the case or the plate hittin the case in a weird way, which case is it

[paper crag]

Tofu60 redux GMK black snail keycaps

Jade HE;s

[harsh dove]

Gummy Mount, Burger Mount, or traditional?

[calm pulsar]

hmm also are you on a tray mount? cause I think it just be like that

[paper crag]

traditional

[normal schooner]

traditional

[paper crag]

that bitch is screwed straight into the case

[harsh dove]

That'd kind of explain it tbh

[paper crag]

nah but everything else is quiet asf

lemme do a sound test here

holon

[harsh dove]

Okay

[paper crag]

w

[calm pulsar]

have yall seen that gmk cosmos is getting reversed

https://cannonkeys.com/products/gmk-cosmos

[harsh dove]

I also sometimes have issues with the backspace sounding different sometimes, I usually will readjust the plate into the case, relube or swap stabs , etc

[harsh dove]

wym

[calm pulsar]

the sparkly black is now the outer shell of the keycap

and the text is just black

while it used to be the opposite

[harsh dove]

Ah okay yeah werent they deciding on which way to do it

yeah

[harsh dove]

Honestly that sounds like it's cause of the tray mount

[calm pulsar]

yeah I think so too

[harsh dove]

do you have case dampeners?

[paper crag]

Yeah so some foam cut to fit

and also

the regular wooting insert

[drifting bronze]

What case do you guys recommend

[paper crag]

slapped into the tofu

[harsh dove]

you can try loosening the screws a bit so they're not screwed in so tight

might alleviate some of that

[paper crag]

I tried to burger mount today I nearly put my hand through my screen

[harsh dove]

If you have tiny silicone orings you can burger mount

[paper crag]

I even had longer screws

[harsh dove]

What was the issue?

[paper crag]

Shit would not go in

Maybe too much foam

[harsh dove]

Should be able to go in with stock foam

[paper crag]

Felt like I was stressing the PCB too much

Yeah it wasn't tho which was odd

[harsh dove]

You used the tofu or wooting foam?

[paper crag]

wooting foam

That thocc layer

[harsh dove]

The two piece wooting foam or the thinner one?

[calm pulsar]

here's loudness on my friction mount

[paper crag]

two piece

[harsh dove]

Did you separate it?

[paper crag]

This shit is loud asf brother

[paper crag]

You can separate it?

[harsh dove]

Yes

[paper crag]

brother

wut

[harsh dove]

Do that

then try burger mount

should work

[paper crag]

so just take off the top layer and keep the bottom?

[harsh dove]

Yes

[paper crag]

I see

That should work

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[paper crag]

I got a PC plate coming in the mail

[calm pulsar]

everything is dry af xd
cause my module arrives in like 2 days so I will be rebuilding the board

[paper crag]

Gonna wait for that before I open it up again

[harsh dove]

Alright

lmk if it works out for you

[paper crag]

I will be back with results

[paper crag]

I've opened this shit up like 5 times

If I see my PCB again I might flip my desk

[calm pulsar]

what plate you got currently?

[paper crag]

stock

[calm pulsar]

cause I got fr4 and its loud, since its denser

[calm pulsar]

ohh the steel one?

[paper crag]

yes

What is the insert between the PCB and plate called again

Im waiting for the pc plate cause it has a diff insert

[calm pulsar]

yeah with PC it volume be reduced quite a bit I'd say

[paper crag]

mutes it a bit

yeah exactly

I didn't know u could separate the foam tho that woulda been good to know

Ngl it was a pain getting the steel plate over my durock v2s

had to use some pressure to get it down

Felt like I was gonna break sum

[harsh dove]

sandwich pad

theres foam and silicone versions

[paper crag]

Yeah that
