Yeah durock v2s are on the thicker side so they have a tighter fit
Guys I'm running a wooting with PC plate silicone between it jades and I want to buy a new case wich one do you guys recommend and should I buy a burger mount
budget?
glossy tf
there’s this guy and then there’s the guy that filed his steel plate with a nail file. 🤣
I’m saying
Does anyone sell just the silicone pad? Also what pc plate do you recommend?
wooting pc plate comes with the silicone pad
and a diff poron foam than the og did I think
Oh nice! Kill two birds with one stone
yup
Ty @cold bloom
anytime
how do you take out switches
So I should wait for the aw to go on sale right ?
Ask them nicely
Switch puller or hands
thanks
I think is better than wasteing 230$ on a 280hz bc i need 1440p for story games + the oled pannel is the best you can get
Do NOT
Actually use your hands
Unless you want no fingernails left

He switches are a bit easier to remove I find. Take the assembly out of the case by removing the screws then unscrew the pcb from the plate, separate the 2 then either push the switches out carefully from below or use a switch puller which is generally easier on your hands
Mx builds you can’t really separate the pcb and plate before taking switches out cause of the way the pins secure into the pcb
Just take the plate off and pop them out
Honii I'm homeee
Ok?
Ok what
Which one are these going on?
Most likely 80HE
wheres yours?



a white 80HE?
I have 3 80HE cases
gangs
White zinc, ghost and frost
Ofc, money is nothing to you respectfully

Well at least the product matters
i got the Raw Zinc, and doing it with Kabuki-Cho R2. i think that will look cool. kinda industrial Neon vibes
Wsg
how are yall
Gonna try em on the froggy
matching switches aswell haha
i need to change my underwear
yey!
these look nice with geons
Looks amazing already
good bro, thank you. just here
No need to change if its white lul
my underwear is X-ray
Can you give them a try and send some pics with a pink or red rgb setup?
Would be greatly appreciated if so
dont believe you
euhm, pics?
Curious how well they look with a dimmer glow from the rgb
need to go Raw HE
frfr
idk man just send it
you did not order a 80he son?
smh
What's that 
Now an X-Ray Dark I could get behind
(No, I didn't order one
)
80HE inferior form factor.
hmm
Only upgrade is 8k polling and stock mods/mounting
that'd be interesting
Yeah could be sweet
Black opaque and clear translucent
Or maybe even light Smokey translucent
With black legends
Time to start a GB?

880€ is too much so i will wait a bit or go with the matte pannel
Holy shit, looks like watermelon on my monitor lol
Nice , change the rgb to purple
Ay yo
He’s not your hoe
Wow
Or nvm
Damn-
LMAO
Lolol
Ye porpol smaks
Looks sick bro
Now to turn it off
Inverted puddings
LMAO real
which is the way
Kinda i guess ye
WoW
much better
Nah the purple or a brigh blue would clear
Holy
Do they have any texture?
oh wut the hell
I wonder what material is the translucent plastic
cause not true white led ig
Well yeah but i expect it to be like close to blueish purpol white
I like white rgb with a hint of purple or blue
Yeah I usually do a lavender gray currently
Pochi uses #f7ffff
DiviniKey was 85$ + $9 shipping
So $94
This is the type of "white" i was expecting
which i like
I paid like 7$ for some gmk reps
Almost 100$ is too much
For you
But they look good
Yeah
yeah i wonder how they did it
like design and all that
pretty sick
They say it’s double shot abs
I need to get a new pc + monitor and I only have 2900€
spu
ah right, like the emma set
Tape what
7800x3d and 4080 super and 1440p/240hz oled ez
tape and lube does sound much beter dam
Switch tape mod?
Almost guessed it right bro but I am going for a 360hz oled
What you talking about, lil homie?
Tape mod is applying tape on the back of the PCB, it makes the board more "poppy" and less muted. It also raises the volume of the board and can increase the lower frequencies so it can also by chance be deeper.
He asked what does tape mod do in the general chat
any other mods you made to this build
hmm
i want a mcmuffin
What gpu will be pushing it?
4080 super
Frog mini, RAW HE, POM plate, Silicone pad? (or none i forgot), 60a tadpoles
do the lekkers v2 sound a bit deeper than v1?
basically keeb mods do everything to mimic a fraction of what a topre keebs can do.
Lekker v2 aren’t out yet
thanks big man
They sound the same in terms of bottom out but the v2 are cleaner due to the tighter tolerance
i got it
Just tighter tolerances
hmm.
I removed the moleskin but everything else correct
You got what
ah ok
V2?
jades do sound better than v2. but price diff is $50
i got the info on them if that makes sense
Yeah I tossed my moleskin
Everything except the Moleskin part
That plate looks great
I just need the aw2725df to go on sale or find it at a local store and I will build the new set up and be done with it
lemme find the meme from the conical keebs elitist group xD
Just need clear knight stabs 
i dont think jades are worth $50 price increase tho.
Nice. I went 1080p/TN instead lol
I'm almost tempted to put my clear SK Knights back in here but meh
go for geons
Chilling for now tho
360
jades are $77 where as lekker v2s are $25
XL2566K
How much did you pay ?
I think $450 BNIB shipped
How many Inches ?
24.5” or whatever
I am worried 27 would be too much for me but I played on some curved 31 inch monitor and it wasn't that bad so I guess i will be fine
Hy guys just a quick stupid question:
I recently bought a prebuild wooting 60he and thought about getting the aluminum case and swap my current plastic one is this easy doable or do I risk to destroy my working keyb? 😅
perfectly doable
Is easy to swap
just watch a couple of videos so you know what to expect
Don’t strip and don’t over tighten screws
27 feel big at first but it's not that big after some time and it's so much better in my opinion 😅
Do you plan to buy a 1440p screen by going 27inch ?
aw2725df
I don't know the spec
I’ll eventually prob go back to 1440p when that 480hz oled comes down in price
Hi
Not really 😅
27” 360hz 1440p OLED
hahaha 😛
ofcourse
Oh damn
Oh nice
What category
lmaooo
Perfect roll, evading traffic with utmost grace
Some sacrifices must be made
Indeed
bro rolled all the way to russia
Was thirsty
what do they look like without rgb?
I don't love the look with it on really
oops
I see it now
no rgb best
yeah I think without rgb looks really clean
Yeah I don't run rgb anyway, just was showing the community
Sound and feel great though
that's good
I had one that apparently had some of the acrylic paint leak?
are they a bit deeper than gmk abs? I find my pbtfans abs sounds nice but a bit diff
and really?
There was white paint under my #7 key in the case
weird
Can't determine yet tbh, maybe a little deeper
fair
Would be cool to know if any major difference in their Double Shot ABS vs GMK's
Yes 1440p 27 inch oled 360hz
I bought these
Noice
yeah I can't really tell myself, I think the ones I have with text mods instead of legends aren't as clean as gmk but the legend mods are always clean
in their abs
Yeah GMK has the best text mods
Yeah I wanna possibly get Mode Anthracite
I hate all gmk keycaps cant find nice ones
What do you be looking for?
Anime waifus
fr
Gmk is able to do custom modifiers for extra money right?
anime waifus would be cool
could get the one piece set
I like space themes
There is too much waifus
GMK Deku draws inspiration from a hero and his academy years. With its proud colorway and animated novelties at your fingertips, you'll be sure to find courage in the face of adversity! empowered existence Illustrations and animations are more than entertainment. Strong themes push us to change our world for the bette
Buy the olivia set
I thought about getting these ones from gmk but idk 😄 (I am from Germany and my keyb is in the ISO layout thats limiting my choices ... :()
I'm actually not sure
Olivia ones are better
GMKs are cool but I just worry about the shine, you need like many sets and rotate them or something 😂
Because it is no where on their website
do you have an example maybe? idk anything about keycaps 😅
Aren't they already shining lol
1s
Just clean hands you dirty basement monster
Maybe not as noticeable as it's transparent
I also try to wash my hands frequently to keep em more dry when gaming/typing
Yeah
@normal schooner ahegao keycaps are nearest to full anime keycap set
I like these a lot
Yeah I think it hides the shine well for a while
GMK Olivia one of my faves
Gmk Olivia not my favorite
Someone paid like 380$ for these 3y ago
lul
Yeah top 3
I got my Olivia off ebay reseller
very clean
Lmao
oh ok these are nice now I just have to find out if my layout is supported 😄 thats the main problem bc I need keys like ÄÖÜ and so on...
I think I might wait to preorder X-ray since I just got redacted but hopefully the deskhero preorder will be up for a few weeks lol
I'd be worried it came from Ali Express
I wish I had a better board to put vior on as a full set
Which one? First, r1 or r2
Lol nah they're legit, sealed and everything
Very edible
How long are GMK group buys these days?
getting this soon
N3
Fresh from Deutschland. Did you sniff your gmk sets?
I sniff all of them
I know I do
1-4 years
Always sniff your keycaps
So no change then since COVID 
yeah they are reversing the color scheme
yeah I love it tbh
One of the best from gmk
That's why you enter 20 groupbuys each year and you encounter random keycap set at your door
Piplup 
yh looked at it love them too but no ISO DE layout
therefore sadly no valid option for me :/
Olivia my favorite
Sad , buy them for the 80he
I did enter this group buy but then cancelled 😦
It is like opening cs cases
not buying another keyb for caps xD i dont have so much money
It was to go with a wooden case hence why I went brown, but then I got a Wooting and wouldn't be using the wooden case 😂
DAAMN 
Yeah but you only get golds
3
hello its ping the mods day
hi @normal schooner

What keybord do you have rn ?
Make your own keycap set

I recently bought the 60he and want to upgrade it a little with caps and the alu base
@normal schooner hello again old guy
I'm upset... I shouldn't have cancelled 😂
Im not usually a huge fan of brown but that works
It looks clean
hangul with the temple novelty is kinda cool
this probably what cams discord looks like everytime he looks away
I love hangul sublegends
It is more like 16+
I got the beige set for pbtfans vior that they sold with it but I prefer the classic hangul blue alpha set from pbtfans with it
I hate them
omg I forgot my noodles
wild
If I could I would destroy hangul in gmk factory
Olivia r2 on prime_elise before I sold the case
Cute
I think a lot of good keyboard stuff comes from korea, so its lowkey cool to have hangul on keycaps sometimes
Im personally not a fan and I had hiragana before, but still
Like what
Geon raws?
geon make a lot of stuff, there's also several good YT channels
taehatypes is korean-american
American
I remember keybored video where he said there's a big community in korea too, meetups and stuff
wrong chat mb
Wasnt
If you need help ask here
ok for sure
do you see the vision or am i tripping
holy 60 black+ black knight switches + awekeys bronze + wooting pcb (duh)
holy60 with open bottom switch is probably gonna be quiet, but slapping metal keycaps on top of that is peculiar
i’m not too invested in the sound because i can’t hear squat when i’m gaming
i might get the bottom plate if it sounds kinda wack tho
then you probably dont need black knights
lekkers are similar
Nice but I wouldn't use that case
Nighmere case lmao
well it is true, I personally bought 3 diff switches to build my frankenstein black switch lol
with white stems though, cause they arent visible from outside
Black knights sound a fair bit better than lekkers IMO
haha i was thinking about doing that i couldn’t find any black he switches for a minute
Yeah for gaming I wouldn't use it but typing was nice on it
For typing yes but for gameing is a deadwish
I should be able to pick up knight stabs soon and move on with my life 
That looks incredible
100% getting x-ray if I've got the funds when it's available on deskhero
Thank you, theyre very nice
6 - 8 months
Easily one of the nicest looking keycaps I've seen
Can you show xrays with light blue riptide effect?
NOO XRAY SOLD OUT ON DESKHERO
can i ask u ?
you must pass the initiation process
what is that
it for write rest for my Wooting 60he+ don't know the size to take one
can u help me
?
pls
batch 1.5 coming soon they said
for pre-order
I think they're still in production tho so I think they said q4 for those?
what's the question? what size is the 60he wrist rest?
There are specifications on the website
yes but i don't found them is for that i ask
i really need help
Bro is casting spells
yes that i found but why of these 3 is the most adapt for 60he+
The 60% mini
ok thank for that
ali express clutches up
first time buying discount took the switches down to 17$
they tripping tho i’ve bought so much from ali express def not first time buyer lmao
wow the blue looks really good on it
That's looks like lighting
is this a gmk set?
gmk hanok yeah
That's so pure
there are decent clones haha xD. I honestly can't justify buying gmk keycaps either. To each their own 😄
Sup guys. Please, advise me some keycaps for wooting 60. Idk what profile they should be, but i mainly code and also i play apex(so it has to be comfortable to superglide)
- plain white with maybe some anime shii on them or black like paintings or smth
- something colourful in light tones
- some anime shii maybe
Budget is unlimited
Of the hanok set? Link?
oh, i was responding to night, i meant in general, you can find decent clones for some gmk sets.
This set took over 2 years for people to receive it, I don't feel so bad now 😂
reasons why I dont buy gmk sets 😭
I wouldve waited 
this makes me wanna put them on my wooting so bad lmao
I wasn't able to get them on the deskhero preorder yet cause of other keycaps etc ive gotten recently but will grab them from either their next pre-order or omnitype still has instock and batch 1.5 too
Custom mech keyboards basically originated in Korea and it's still super popular in Korea hence the hangul keycap sets
he went offline after that xdd
oh that's cool
I feel like it's a bit cooler than japanese because 99% of people will buy the japanese ones 
(if they're getting another language on their keys)
LMAO
I'm not putting any language on my keycaps that I can't read personally 
Doesn't take long to learn an alphabet 😅
Unless it's chinese/kanji
Yeah but what's the point unless I'm actually going to learn the language and interact with people in it
cyrillics* 😄
yes
I mean you do you, this is just how I feel 
(i don't have either on my keycaps rn dw
)
I heard most japanese ppl these days dont even use hiragana on their keeb, they just type in romaji and it converts to japanese
not sure if it's true
its a preference
Some use hiragana some use kata
office use is majority kata
or kanji
there was alcohol that went down my throat, but i did not drink
on desktop yeah
on phone no
fair
aaaagh idk if i get 50g or 60g geon raw he
anyone know what amp/dac i would need to run hd600
love this setup for the wooting rn. Tofu60, Kbdfans fr4 plate and switch pad, 60g Geon Raw HE switches, 50a oring friction mount, case foam, no plate foam
does 60HE+ come pre lubed?
Yep
ayee those raws sounding real nice
friction mount works so well in the og Tofu60
but I need another salvation or something for my wooting
optimum case when
on the 60he, is it possible to change the sandwich pad without removing the switches?
yeah just unscrew the plate from the pcb
pretty sure switches are just mounted to the plate
actually nvm they also go into the pcb kinda
i'd have to remove them then
love it
carefully taking it out from the pcb
receiving my module on monday, just asking to see if i could save some time when testing both pads
i need new plate!!!!!!!!
I desire a brighter sound profile!
fr4 is the goat for that
yuh I love it in my current build, even with a headset on the feel is kinda poppy which I like
debating to get fr4 or cf
but i think i will go with CF
both similar sound profile wise
I think CF is firmer by a bit
feel wise
Pops said CF is one or is the brightest plate of the bunch
agreed
ig it also depends on how the plate is done
if you're getting kbdfans it has "flex cuts" which dont really allow for any flex, but they are there
I will test this the kbdfans cf plate once my module arrives
please do
you got the raws?
nah I decided to wait when they are on AE so I dont have to order through a middle man
kk
so will be testing with my jade knights for now lul
The PC plate frequency and resonance is pretty low for me
i very much prefer it to be higher with the RAW's to satisfy me
Don't want nothing too loud like the Xinhai (although they're nice to me) but nothing to low as of right now
yeah I think cf or fr4 are good for that
any metal plates will be pushing it too bright I think
dang I have to clean my frankenswitches from the gugu oil and relube them, its gonna take a lotta time
PP plate 
do these come pre lubed?
yes
xinhais the goat
this is a comparison of my wooting to some other mx keebs btw
first is the wooting the my salvation with hmx xinhais and then bauer lite with oil kings
I sent it to thackson but thought I'd share
when wel they make the 5g sprimgs ??
I do
Alu case
Case Foam of choice
Friction Mount
Your Dashes
CF plate
No plate foam
GMK keycaps
Can you do that for me 🙏

Yes but it’s gonna have to wait until tomorrow morning.
Sorry it’s 12:30 here. I’m knackered
So no foam between the plate and pcb?
@untold wigeon you're going to do the build, record it and at the end Thackson is going to be like "okay it's good, send it to me"

yup
yoink yoink
I forgot I have one with my cerakeys if you want. I’ll do the GMK tomorrow though
thanks
ello peeps i have a question. so my wooting uwu is being shipped, lets say i wanna switch from the lekker l45s to the lekker l60s. how would i go about switching them? (ive never changed a switch ever in my life)
You just take off the keycaps with a keycap puller and take out the switch with the switch puller, then put in your l60's and boom! you're done
simple as that
out and in
buy a switch puller and watch a 15 second YT video on how to pull a switch. take off keycaps first and make sure to get l60s
I pulled a switch for my first time 3 days ago.
is the switch puller the one that kinda looks like a horseshoe?
yep, I can send a link to the one I got.
@fluid ravine you can hear how hollow it sounds. I wonder how different it would be with the GMK caps on it
not necessarily
different from keycap puller
Top thing
i have this
how is it mounted in there? I feel like its not due to the plate, but the mounting
thats a switch puller I think
watch a quick YT video on how to pull a switch and try it. It may require some force.
Good point. It was just friction mounted in that video
dont 3 l60s come with the keypad?
alr thanks!
idk, I think so.
Yeah thats why im not a big fan with cerakeys on such switch
hmm, actually I thought it was that hollow due to tray mounting 😄
then actually it might be something else
It is something else
Most likely the keycaps but I can't say the whole board is just hollow
lmao i almost mistook u for thockson
yeah cause mine isnt that hollow with friction mounting
Unless i get like a proper sound test
hm wsp? all g lol
i feel like ive used a switch puller on a keycap before, will it damage the keycaps?
Just make sure to pull equally on both sides, may have to wiggle the switch out. It pops right back in. Make sure to clip on the middle of the switch part.
I might be misspeaking. The pcb was laying in the case. No screws or foam
Yeah tray mount is more hollow since it makes direct contact with the case
ahh that's what I thought seeing how it moves around, could be due to that too
nah, may scratch it or it may fly across the room but no
huh 
wait
the,
son of thock
oh nvm i saw ur msg now
LMAO
Son of thock, also the son of thack (phase of the thock->clack)
ye ye LMFAO
I mean im going through it
alternatively, if you combine clack + thock you get... cock
STOP LMFAO
IT COULDVE BEEN CLOCK AT LEASTTTT

💀 
THAT'S WHY I WENT WITH THACK
AND ITS JUST A ONE LETTER DIFFERENCE WITH THOCK LMFAO
actually insane

keyboard buzzwords going crazy xd
fr
I hate using like thock or clack in my explainations
doesnt sound right and not "specific" enough
yeah I prefer darker and brigher, lower and higher etc
Like just explaining how to make a thocky keyboard with the wooting
like you notice the terms i use with switches of "neutral or lower" pitched switches like the v2 or what not, instead of "thocky" switches like the v2 or what not
like it doesn't make sense and it isnt true
ye ye 100%
I mean yeah cus again the general rule in keyboards is that one thing cant make the board like thocky or clacky as it combines alot of factors
So in terms of what we can speak to help beginners understand, i think we just gotta use these specific words to describe things (idk what the word is to describe "specific words" as a whole xd). I honestly think saying buzz words to beginners is just a idk as they don't really understand it or even know what it is.
I agree, I can feel that a lot of ppl come here from YT asking what would be the most T H O C C
I mean like yeah the buzz word does sum up the idea of pitch and types of sound but then do people really know the exact meaning behind these words?

"Hey want switches can make my board thocc?"
"What's the best keycaps to make my board thocky?"

jades, clean the lube out of it
alu plate, alu keycaps
brass plate
no foam
alu keycaps 
no case? W no ping keyboard
no brainer
haha
W keyboard right there
module does come with a temporary thingie for placing your keyboard
though it would act like foam, we dont need that
I prefer metal sheet
oh the foam thingy almost the size of the board?
is that what it's for?
ohhhhhh
yeah in one of the vids they say it is for when you're waiting for your case
and only have the module on hands
wait wooting smart smart hollup, they thought about it 5 steps ahead
i respect that
damnnn w wooting
Woot Woot!
I can feel my module getting closer
more specifically one city away
@rapid sedge I took this during a electricity outage during a hurricane with a flashlight.
No lavender 
yessir
wait so how old are you now 
oh shi so i was 5 at the time
yup no clue what that game is

@quiet bay saw this on the alexotos server
Dude i swear every time i think about your pfp its so frigin adorable 
amazing if you like mmorpgs
i was so tired of playing comp games and needed a refresher
so i pull out old reliable cause my buddy bought me a membership with his gold
now i need to farm and start bossing soon
Yeah netherlands to australia takes forever but its worth the wait
netherland to canada🙏🙏
fedex shipping was 46 aud or 41 cad 
oh dont get me started with shipping and import fees
mhm
better than razer's keyboards tho
what mods u gonna do to urs when u get it
imma keep my one full stock, but lubed stabs and maybe tape mod
clouds
what mods?
Can i get the gmk file, just to compare side by side without searching for it
Frog Mini, RAW HE, Silicone Sandwich Pad, No Case Foam, Stock Wooting Plate Mount Stabs, 60A Tadpoles, X-Ray Keycaps
prob just burger mount it already lubed my raws and idk for the rest yet
time will come
burger mount?
mhm
what mods would u suggest i do to a stock wooting 60he without spending alot of money
Now i know what you mean when tuning the spacebar is hard with the frog
what is the burger mount?
Xray is pbt?
o rings
or double shot ABS
ABS
hmm
i see
Stock wooting case too?
yeah, i wanna make a custom one from wood but it will be stock for a while
dw il make it for you🦧🦧
lmao wdym
lol
make sure you have a sander if youre gonna do that
finna karate chop to make mine
only tool i need
yes yes
Cheap mods would be like Burger Mount, Tape Mod, Friction Mount, PC Plate Kit, Hand Lube your switches and Stabilizers
hehe
thanks for that, what is friction mounting?
Using a large O'ring to wrap around the module and friction fitting it into the case
ohhhhh
doesnt the module have a thing on the top right that doesnt work with an o ring?
?
i swear i read somewhere that theres something on it that like stops the o ring from wrapping around
Only thing that can prevent friction mounting is the screw in stabs
lol yup
thats what i read somewhere
it pretrudes the O'ring a bit too out so the o'ring cant compress between the plate and pcb to fit into the case
thats it thank you
thats what i was tryibg to say
but my brain has been runescapinh all day so i cant
Well modders im going to sleep 
YOOO Pochita themed Keyboard!! Based 
Yessir, designed it with the intention of making it goofy and cute 
Need to make myself one I swear
But idk what and what to use 
on some real shit
Does anyone know about the key switches on the ATK RS7 series?
Is it the same as regular Jade?
This name is Gateron Magnetic Jade Switch Amathyst Edition
i am gonna upgrade my wooting 60he, any solid recommendations for a 60% case? going for a creamyish/deep sounding build
read that tofu60 redux sounds rattly/high pitched, any recommendations?
Budget?
Salvation
I mean with the weight and good foam it shouldn’t be that bright
the tofu
Frog Mini
arent some of the frog minis no longer for sale?
The original one is no longer being made, but you can find em for sale
o i c
do yall thing geon raw he 60g will be too heavy?
somewhat related but would you say the frog mini is better than the salvation?
what would be the main differences between them both
like what’s diff w their mounting styles?
Frog leggera is lightweight cheaper option
Meant to be a lighter cheaper alternative to frog mini
it removes basically all the weight and isn't tadpole mounted, it's tray mount
but it's also like $70
ah
kind of not worth then since i already have a tofu redux
could it be worth checking out a salvation or frog mini then or no?
that's up to you they ain't cheap, but I do like my frog mini
Can I use the tofu 60 redux with every layout ansi or iso
Because I use a iso French and want to get the tofu but what foam do you recommend?
This is how it sounds now
Either foams fine 
Yea but the wooting foam or the one that comes with the tofu
I personally would use the wooting foam and then if there was no brass plate id cut the tofu foam and stick it in the insert
Oh ok and what mount do you recommend
Im more unfamiliar with mounting personally, i wouldnt be able to give a good recommendation 
Somebody will pop in here to suggest though im sure
Ok thanks
Hey everyone, I recently bought a Wooting keyboard and love the rapid trigger feature, but the 6-degree angle is causing wrist discomfort. I previously used a HyperX Alloy Origins Core, which has a 3-degree angle and didn't cause this issue. I'm considering returning the Wooting and getting a module to adjust the angle to 3 degrees. I've never modded a keyboard before, so I'm wondering if it's worth the effort. Also, should I take advantage of the current discount on the Wooting UwU to try it out first? Any advice would be appreciated!
I usually never ever even thought about that
how much discomfort are we talking about? is it really that noticeable?
modding is something that people enjoy as a project
furthermore, you can mod it to ur needs and liking
so i do think its worth the effort
Have you tried a wrist rest?
that can make the angle a lot less
Or feel a lot less anyway
yes it hurts after a short amount of time
dont you think its just a stamina issue or smth
no because with my hyperx keyboard it doesnt hurt at all
maybe add something at the bottom to make it more like 3 degrees idk
Do you need to buy the silicone rings for the burger mount separately of the tofu 60 redux case?
yes
they literally cost like nothing
Can I order them from max gaming
idk
salvation arriving later 
And what mounting system do you recommend
if wooting can do gummy o ring mount
that
i never owned a wooting keyboard
only the keypad
yes but I dont like wrist rests in general
I'm thinking about tofu redux
The wooting one is made out of full silicone
what games do you play
osu!, valorant and some other games where rapid trigger isnt relevant
osu and wrist wrest are a no for me too honestly
For anyone in Europe who'd like to try friction mount and don't want to overpay triple for the shipping for dedicated oring. I have fucked around and found out this https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/1005003702464405.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.10.5f221c24zT306t&gatewayAdapt=glo2pol
you fucked around and found out
o rings aren't really that hard to find here
I believe this is the same size as graveshift or bakeneko60 oring
any size
Ive never modded a keyboard before, i was thinking about getting a 60he but i wanted arrow keys, then i saw the 80 he with slightly better dampening and stabilizers but, is it worth for me to get a 60HE and use it stock and maybe swap out the case later on (i don't wanna bother lubing switches) or do i just wait for the 80HE
I was struggling to find silicone one so it's not so stiff in 305x3mm
just get 80he if you dont mind the layout
i don't really mind it but i do think the case up top is too high if you know what i mean
wooting 60he should be 65he from the very beginning, nobody uses right long ass shift anyways
but yeah it is what it is
i just don't like the look
he probably used lower profile keebs previously
I don't like 80he design at all
would've wanted an exploded 75% more than what the have right now
i mean technically it still is but its not the one most exploded 75 keyboards look like
i just wouldve liked the top to be same as the bottom
@rain harbor what aftermarket case for the wooting 60he do you recommend
I'm getting tofu redux and this is budget option imo
if you're feeling fancy check fjell60
looks like qk65 design
nah nvm too thick
Yeah but I've seen that the black tofu redux has problems with fingerprints
some other board that i forgot the name about
ngl ive only ever had Razer keyboard (ik don't come for my neck) currently have a clicky huntsman v2 and it sounds horrible
does it? I'm getting silver anyways
@rain harbor are there any cases for the 60he with a 3 degree or lower angle?
wooting 80he or the 60he+ are good upgrades
no idea bud I like them thicc
maybe gh60? it seems little flatter
Idk but I would check the alumaze it have seen you can change the angel on the alumaze one
yeah alumaze is nice too if you don't mind the strap I do personally want to avoid GaMeR look of it
i don't think i ever use the f row keys, and for the arrow keys i can just add a layer to my profile for when im reading manga, do you think if i where to get a 60he+ and use it stock for a while it would be good or do i have to mod it eventually
I'm thinking about grey with black keycaps.from wooting or black on vlack
check metheorite grey on tofu, you may like it
Yea me to
how can you not use f row keys?!
looks solid to me
honestly the strap is almost exclusive to the wooting
its like a wooting thing
if you see the strap you'll think its a wooting
yeah, still I don't like it lmfao
little bit expensive
I prefer sleek aesthetics, if someone wants this strap then it's fine, 60he is the only one that has it too
I want a 65he so badly
from what I read in reddit not gonna happen anytime soon
I know
Yea it's the only case I've seen with changable height
I want a 65% with gasket mount and CNC machined case instead of zinc alloy
doesnt need to be changable just flat
hall effect keyboards with gasket mount are scarce
that actually sounds nice from factory. 60he in original from factor is something I can't simply swallow
Yeah also that
there's few already. TKD Cycle8 has two mounting styles for example
are the lekker linear45 switches good?
@rain harbor I was thinking about this https://youtu.be/8zBsNi81MHA?si=X09NPeyHLiZSG5Mm
scarce, few, same same
it's new concept. Most of the ones that are coming now aren't tray mounted
gasket mounting really isnt new
nice one, I was thinking about this one too but I decided silver may be nicer option for me
There are alot of better once
its just hall effect keyboards need stiff plates and pcbs
HE gaming keyboards is relatively new concept is what I'm saying
anything too flexy will mess up the sensor and the magnets
PC plates aren't stiff and they work
and 1.6mm pcb with no flex cut is goated anyways
You can get the PC plate from wooting it is a bit less stiff but still stiff enough
@rain harbor I think I am going with black on black tbh
don't be boring bro
its mostly because of the pcb and foam
Brooo ill do purple then
can you name some I want to use this keyboard mainly for osu
ill honestly say I've done that and it felt too basic
now we talking, and get wlmouse beast x in purple too 👌
okay you might be just having a stamina issue my dude
Wait u can dm me I'll help u further
if you have lekker60s
No idk tbh
its an heavier switch that the hyperx ones
nah I had browns before
they're not really even heavy
too
and I've always perceived my WS heavy tactiles as a light switch
just felt really snappy
what dampening material r u using in your wootings?
is poron good? what tickness to get?
@rain harbor I just don't want to do anything to crazy like I don't want to be disappointed you know I'm using the stock wooting keycaps so it's hard
love how poron sounds compared to silicone in my keyboard thats not wooting
but you use silicone sandwitched or on the base of the case?
the silicon in between the plate and pcb
silicon in case made it sound quiet
