I could've rocked these bad boys in my house

[devout torrent]

same manufacturer

but they are NOT the same

diff molds and waht not

[quiet bay]

I wonder if they changed any material in the v2s

[potent root]

material looks different in the bottom of the switch housing

[devout torrent]

bottom iks pa66

most likely

like the ones on kprepublic

[young marten]

should u get the Gateron magnetic Jade Its like 26$ rn for the 70 one or should i just stick to Stocked?

[fluid ravine]

oh shi i forgot abt that

[cyan zodiac]

r/mm

[spice plover]

yeah i looked right after idk why i always spam this discord first lmaoo

1000$ i think im alright for now

[stone flax]

uhhh

If i recall correctly

thats the kind of set that went for $1,000 aftermarket lol

just hunt for kkb darling

[stone flax]

oh yeah lol

[spice plover]

not gonna lie

[stone flax]

Can definitely find a sub 150 set

[spice plover]

its a beautiful set i didnt even look at price or anything first i just saw it and liked it

is the KBB variant the same basically?

[stone flax]

Similar enough

[stone flax]

one by keykobo one by gmk, colors are slightly diff

only difference is one is roughly 1/9th the cost of the other

[spice plover]

That enter key though

Is the one on the right gmk?

[stone flax]

this is probably exaggerated tho

[devout torrent]

Knock off darling is like 30 bucks

On aliexpress

Stole that pic from a review

[stone flax]

left is gmk

gmk has darker mods, kkb first gmk second

[spice plover]

So they both have the exact same novelties too?

Honestly though for my setup I’m probably grabbing the frost witch gmks

[untold wigeon]

https://tenor.com/view/jones-bbq-gif-4795433

I was just reminded of one of the greatest internet videos ever

[stone flax]

ig so theyre both weeb sets lol

with the same inspo

[calm pulsar]

never seen it but look awesome already

[spice plover]

lol I mean I watch anime but the colors looked amazing on it

[untold wigeon]

Have to go watch it. It’s hilarious

[spice plover]

Idk why but I hate fake products

[stone flax]

honestly think you cant go wrong with either

[spice plover]

Like Chinese replicas

[stone flax]

keykobo so good

gmk also good

[spice plover]

Ima check it out

[spice plover]

Pretty nice need more purple sets though bro

Purple case need that purple in my life

[stone flax]

purple night

voc

vior

viors not exactly purple but it kinda suits

[spice plover]

Damnnnn vior is fkin nice

Purple night way too purple

[stone flax]

hmm

Tuzi?

dracula

Symbiote

[spice plover]

Voc abs I can’t be caught dead in that

[stone flax]

maybe dmg

dmg ive seen work well in some shades of purple

Kkb poltergeist?

Lots of purple sets lol

[spice plover]

Oooo tuzi bro

You finding that 🔥 right now

[spice plover]

I’m screen shotting my favorites

[spice plover]

O shit bro dracula is dope to

[stone flax]

hmm

Purpurite?

[spice plover]

Honest to god bro I think you link some heat

Ima compare these to the witch one I mentioned earlier

[calm pulsar]

@spice plover check out GMK Pulse, Mitolet variant

[spice plover]

Seriously ur fkin gosted for this

Goated sorry too much purple got me talking spooky

👻

[stone flax]

purple

[spice plover]

Nice color but a little too plain

[calm pulsar]

fair

I do like sets where mods and alphas are the same color

[wary acorn]

so many good sets are just ruined for me cuz of japanese sublegends

[spice plover]

I really think Dracula with purple case and some purple novelties would smack @stone flax

[spice plover]

Yeah bro Ty for the recommendation it’s just mjj cooking crazy right now

[devout torrent]

Mjj is a legend

Guy knows his kbs

[spice plover]

He really matched cool colors like the vior and Dracula. Like most people would put mainly purple colored sets but the darker reds look amazing with purple as well

[stone flax]

uhh a couple more sets and im tapped out of purple: analog dreams, tako, hanami, vaporwave

[spice plover]

Nah it’s call good man ty I think I’ve came up with an idea

I’ll probably order Dracula and try to find some purple novelties that would match together with it or something I’ll figure it out

Appreciate it a lot bro !

[stone flax]

hanami and vaporwave are

even with the weeb

[spice plover]

That left ones fire

They are both super nice

[uneven cradle]

Forgot the best one GMK Cubed

[stone flax]

i need a new gmk set

jk

keykobo is next

[calm pulsar]

4 gmk sets not enough

[calm pulsar]

any pics where bottom of the keycobo keycaps are shown?

[uneven cradle]

I need the early 2000s gamer GMK collection

[stone flax]

for which one

like the underside?

[calm pulsar]

tbh any one will do, yeah the underside
im curious to see smth

[spice plover]

That’s super good I have a lot of hard decisions Ty guys

[calm pulsar]

awesome, thanks
I was curious to see the way they do doubleshot, cause some manufacturers have the keycap stem being different from the outer shell

[stone flax]

keykobo no slackers haha

[calm pulsar]

might look into keykobo

[polar girder]

Same

News to me

https://www.keykobo.com/products/poltergeist

Whoa

[stone flax]

they make beautiful sets and the quality looks to be

only thing is they run a bit deeper than gmk sound wise

grrr

[uneven cradle]

I'll try em out eventually just waiting for a keykobo set I like

[cyan zodiac]

get red alert from us

[polar girder]

I’ll probably skip those blanks btw

[flat cobalt]

Gonna wait for something else?

[polar girder]

I don’t really fk with blanks I don’t think

Just the BoB legends set from them

Same thing with black legends

[uneven cradle]

Spent too much at your store already gotta give my wallet a break

https://tenor.com/view/no-money-please-broke-wallet-gif-10282203

[polar girder]

Hey random but any update on that plate gb?

[loud zephyr]

I see you got these for GB, this shit cooks

[uneven cradle]

I was checking that out also

[loud zephyr]

that ctrl key looks kinda funky, I diggit

[tired frigate]

what is this called lol

[loud zephyr]

C.O.L by KeyKobo

[calm pulsar]

@cyan zodiac btw did my frog get cancelled initially cause you guys can't ship to Russia after all?

Keykobo Miami Nights vs Miami Dawn, pretty cool

[heavy escarp]

ali express order got in a week before kbd fans 😭

[cyan zodiac]

[polar girder]

Common AliExpress W

[heavy escarp]

fr

aliexpress been the goat

[cyan zodiac]

best to ask john

[calm pulsar]

yeah I guess not during these world politics 😄

[polar girder]

Alrighty thanks

[cyan zodiac]

[calm pulsar]

its all good I will have to wait a bit more

[calm pulsar]

how long does it usually take to ship from Cafege to US?

[cyan zodiac]

i believe 1-2weeks

[calm pulsar]

sounds good

[flat cobalt]

Wowie

[gritty orbit]

Hello! Just wanted to share with everyone what I’ve done to my 60HE+! Thoughts?

[fluid ravine]

Like the second pic lowkey

[stone flax]

hows the poseidon, gotten mixed feedback on it

[fluid ravine]

White on alphas and number keys and light blue close to white for the alternate keys like backspace, enter, right shift, alt ctrl, etc etc

i think that'd be nice

AOE as well

set to like 30% brightness? idk

[fluid ravine]

like this blue is nice

[gritty orbit]

I added a brass bar inside and the already heavy build of it make it feel too quality. Great price compared to other similar options imo and I prefer the smaller profile of it

[stone flax]

wait is the gasket vers or tray mount

[gritty orbit]

Headed home and gonna switch it up to that, was excited to just get it posted lol

[stone flax]

i could be confusing it with a diff case entirely

[loud zephyr]

looks solid, backspace could've gone without the fonts though imo

[fluid ravine]

Lowkey the bezels looks like the gasket mounted ver

i might be tripping

[stone flax]

[fluid ravine]

wait waaat

[stone flax]

i forgot how that one guys poseidon was built

i cant remember atp

[fluid ravine]

I thought PSD bezels were a bit sharper and thinner
I remember the gasket moutne dbeing a bit more curved

gasket

Tray mount

Ok it doesnt matter @stone flax it's tray mount either ways

cus the gasket ver is two piece, in the pics it's not 2 piece

so question solved xd

[stone flax]

whats this https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=W6sny3CQalE

[fluid ravine]

yeah ik about this

[calm pulsar]

gasket mounted poseidon

[stone flax]

ahh

[fluid ravine]

Theres a tray mount and gasket mount pretty sure you knew that

or maybe not idk

[stone flax]

He drilled the plate for the standoffs

[fluid ravine]

yeah

[stone flax]

To make the wooting work

ic

[fluid ravine]

there isnt a custom plate for the wooting standoffs

which is a OOF for Bigsly

He bought one and still hasnt opened it

[stone flax]

ic

[fluid ravine]

and didnt get a plate for it

to drill which was risky

so that was a waste of moni

[stone flax]

thought it came with a plate that allowed for it

Wouldve been cool

[fluid ravine]

but at the same time bigsly also got a frog mini for his board

[stone flax]

[calm pulsar]

I mean drilling wouldn't be that bad if you have any 3rd part plate, just align it and drill holes with the diameter of the standoff screws

[pulsar schooner]

Does someone have a version of the switch compatibility list that shows the notes?

[stone flax]

???

[fluid ravine]

oh shit it gotten a bit better than what it was before

nice

[pulsar schooner]

Thanks

[flat cobalt]

might get those dash for the pink stem

[fluid ravine]

Been working on my presentation till almost 2, only thing i been enjoying is the sound of my keyboard, hate everything else

Hopefully im finish for tonight, Gn Modders

Cya in a few 4-5 hours maybe :D

[raw mortar]

which one between PE, EVA and Poron (switch pads) produces the thockiest sound?

[little glen]

My keycaps arrived

[uneven cradle]

Gimmi

[calm pulsar]

ohhh is that evil dolch?

[uneven cradle]

[crimson sky]

look at iiiiiit

Frog Pesante is looking baller

[uneven cradle]

I might need that too 👀

3kg 60%

[crimson sky]

not stupid expensive as well

[uneven cradle]

~280-330 USD sign me up

Stainless steel + Brass is a killer combo 👌

[calm pulsar]

is this from geon?

[stark osprey]

Yes from the latest live stream, yesterday.

[crimson sky]

yes

it comes along the leggera

[calm pulsar]

the weight looks nice

[crimson sky]

the leggera also has a version that would work with a wooting

tray mount only for the wooting tho

[sweet oak]

anything for a case like that

[calm pulsar]

can't wait for my og frog mini

[cyan zodiac]

[cyan zodiac]

PE

[fluid ravine]

Morning

[paper crag]

Any of yall know what case this is?

[crimson sky]

TGR 910 RE PC

[paper crag]

There's definitely nowhere I can pick that shit up

[crimson sky]

nope

[cyan zodiac]

you can dream

[crimson sky]

910 me is somewhat attainable and people say it is the best version

[cyan zodiac]

that is cap

magnetic are super shitty to deal with

[crimson sky]

best as in sounds the best

[cyan zodiac]

and also sound og better

[crimson sky]

yea the magnets suck lol

[paper crag]

Another case I probs can't get

[crimson sky]

which OG

[paper crag]

wtf is this folks

[crimson sky]

there are like a dozen 910s

[crimson sky]

ORI87

might be a CLS-1 tho

from ORI

you also won't just be able to pick that up

[cyan zodiac]

the alu one

i mean there is gaf which is based on og no?

[crimson sky]

no

the gaf is based on the me I think

[cyan zodiac]

no

[crimson sky]

yea it is, has the toblerone and all

[cyan zodiac]

gaf came before me even existed

[crimson sky]

pretty sure it didn't

anyways, original 910 was in 2017 https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=86047.0

actually the gaf might be slightly earlier, but I would still argue that it is derived from the ME since the 910 ME has the same characteristics that the Jane V2 ME has, which was earlier than the GAF 910

[polar girder]

Divinikey black knight stab update

Joy

[tawdry tree]

Look at the bottom. I jokingly said that the V2s look an awfully lot like an other switch but they actually fucking are man, I’m deadd

Wooting x Looting let’s fucking gooooooo

💀💀💀💀

[untold wigeon]

65?

[calm pulsar]

quantity

[untold wigeon]

Duh 65 pieces

Finally got them huh?

[calm pulsar]

for now not yet, this is a pic from the guy who got them for me in korea, waiting for delivery now

[untold wigeon]

Gotcha.

Did you ever watch that video from last night?

[calm pulsar]

which one? I guess I missed it

[untold wigeon]

https://youtu.be/WPkMUU9tUqk?si=ucr43HdTPD_aiMwJ

Hilarious

[calm pulsar]

ahh sorry I forgot

I'll watch rn

[cyan zodiac]

pog

[polar girder]

Sick set

[calm pulsar]

damn I wonder if this is still open
good vid, no wonder this is a classic

[untold wigeon]

Exactly. It’s an all time classic

[calm pulsar]

yeahh love it
maybe not for my silver frog but its good geon is making this, and on top of that making different affordable kits

[polar girder]

Yeah pretty neat

[untold wigeon]

What is it?

[stone flax]

shouldve used black snail and not this

zzzzzz

imagine a $39 black snail 60% kit

wowzas

[calm pulsar]

geon acquired a license for Evil Dolch design and is making GMK sets with affordable kits, for example a kit for 60% only, etc which helps bring down the price

[untold wigeon]

I think I remember hearing about this.

Are they being manufactured by gmk?

[calm pulsar]

hope it will become a common practice

[calm pulsar]

yup looks like it

[calm pulsar]

is there a page for it already?

[untold wigeon]

Nice! It would suck if someone else was making it under license. Quality would surely suffer

[stone flax]

Now if only he did it WITH BLACK SNAIL

No offense its a cool model and to make the most accessible gmk set

but evil dolch is kinda ugly

[calm pulsar]

yeah I guess black snail is his first attempt of making a more accessible gmk set, cause the base price is pretty much like wob which is one of the cheapest sets

I got it along with novelties, love it

[stone flax]

he said he wanted to do black snail but couldnt get enough vendors going with his plan/it wasnt fully developed in his head

so he just pushed for a cheap instock kit at $89 with the next set he’s doing to use the sales model we see now

but god is it such a better looking than evil dolch

[calm pulsar]

btw also opted for each weight option for the new springs
cause reviews say they are very quiet

[devout torrent]

btw was pricing confirmed osmewhere?

I didnt see it

[stone flax]

yeah

[devout torrent]

oh I see it now

thats insane

39

def a cop

[pulsar schooner]

I got a set of Melgeek Vision ready to go for the 80he

[calm pulsar]

damn 39 for a gmk set is insane

[stone flax]

49 instock i assume

[tawdry tree]

80 for base

❤️

[stone flax]

[calm pulsar]

yeah, it still allows you to get whatever you need and throw in like novelties and stuff if you're into it

WASD set for 4$ to escape that shine

[stone flax]

this should be the future of gmk

[tawdry tree]

surely it will be, surelyyy

[untold wigeon]

$52 for 60% + novelties is really really good

[stone flax]

instead of ugly low moq 8 month wait time $180 sets

[devout torrent]

geon is goated

image w/ pics

and prices

[calm pulsar]

geonworks? more like goatworks

[stone flax]

best part about this is it will literally keep being an instock kit

he mentioned

[tawdry tree]

literally 🤣🤣

[stone flax]

until vendors go bankrupt

or geon goes bankrupt

Meaning you can cop a set for ur 60 and down the line expand to tkl and maybe pick up spacebars and novelties

and so forth

[tawdry tree]

I’m happy he listened and supports compact 65% and more as well now

[polar girder]

No page

[polar girder]

Just fresh renders and vendors listed

That artisan goes crazy

[calm pulsar]

gotcha

[tawdry tree]

artisan looks sick

but I’m afraid it doesn’t feel nice

[calm pulsar]

imagine buying a gmk clone for 50$ in near future when you can get a 60% genuine set for this price lul

[tawdry tree]

evil dolch resellers on ebay rn 😬

[polar girder]

Why

[neon harbor]

i cream with raw he

[calm pulsar]

oh dang they did a black one

[polar girder]

Have alu, pp, nylon to choose from

Yeah and I think maybe it was anodized after cut

Which would be sick but cool either way

I know hype ano then cuts so there’s some shiny silver around every hole

[calm pulsar]

I might roll with the raw alu for some time, esp since the raws arent black, maybe at some point will order a softer black plate

[cedar gate]

What are yalls personal wooting builds looking for some Inspiration recommending parts to a friend

[digital vale]

Hand lubed Dashes, Screw in Duroc V3 stabs, Tofu redux case, WoB PBTfans keycaps, my build personally, couldnt be happier

[tired frigate]

Which switch?

[calm pulsar]

geon raw he

[tired frigate]

Oooh

Very nice

They don’t have enough in stock for me to buy

So I will patiently wait

Only 3 sets of 18 at 60g

Out of stock of 50g

[calm pulsar]

ahh damn
I ordered from korea, seems plenty there

[tired frigate]

Well yeah makes sense haha

How much will shipping be tho

It’s $7 from divinekey

[calm pulsar]

yeah its like 30 probs to US 😄

[tired frigate]

Hahha yeah…

Too much

You live in US or somewhere else ?

[calm pulsar]

im from Russia, so I ordered through a middleman in Korea

[tired frigate]

See now it makes sense Hahha

[calm pulsar]

I did want to wait for them to appear on aliexpress but I felt like it'd be a long time so I pulled the trigger lol

[polar girder]

Yeah chilling

[tired frigate]

Yeah I don’t think they are getting put on Aliexpress

Not for a while

[polar girder]

Just some cheap WoB SA set from Amazon lol

[calm pulsar]

yeah Ig due to insane popularity geon wants to sell them on his own, with only a couple of regional vendors

[tired frigate]

It actually looks good haha

[tired frigate]

Yeah makes sense tbh

[polar girder]

I know not bad haha

Thanks

[calm pulsar]

will be waiting for black knights in an alu plate

sound test I mean xd

[polar girder]

lol I got you

[glossy pagoda]

There are no switch packs made with v1.5 switches, those are only preinstalled on current 60HEs and W2HEs. What you received is indeed Lekker v2s, like your order states they are

[raw mortar]

he broke the system with a product that hasn't been released yet

[polar girder]

Need a side by side now bro

Side by side sound test with v1 or v1.5

[polar girder]

Thanks for confirming

[cyan zodiac]

[pulsar schooner]

I just wish the geon raw he was the full 4.0 mm travel. I use analog controls like crazy and want that full range of motion for more accuracy

I know the raptors exist, but I hate the look of them

[stone flax]

in lekker pros we trust

[cyan zodiac]

but like you don't see them when you put on keycaps

[stone flax]

i dont get hating on a switch color unless you notice them with caps on

like if the housings affect/block the rgb

otherwise ur never gonna notice

[calm pulsar]

yeah I think only bottom housing matters, cause I like how I can't see my switches with black jade bottom housing

other than that I agree

[elfin garnet]

Could be rainbow colors for all I care. Performance/Sound > looks

[polar girder]

False

[cyan zodiac]

What switch do I have on my kohaku then?

[polar girder]

☠️☠️

[calm pulsar]

it does depend on lightning and keycap color

[polar girder]

Ez diff

[cyan zodiac]

it just looks like your turn off your rgb in the 2nd one

[polar girder]

Both videos RGB is off

The picture it’s on

That was wrong one

[elfin garnet]

It's that profile lol

[cyan zodiac]

use cherry

best

[polar girder]

lol yeah I’m over SA

going to try PBS next tho

[cyan zodiac]

PBS?

[uneven sequoia]

3d printed retro 60he case. Not the final colors I'm going with but the design I think is good.

[pulsar schooner]

For rgb, black or darker transparent colors screw with color presentation

[tired frigate]

Check dm 🤝

[pulsar schooner]

I’m a huge fan of MDA profile

[calm pulsar]

replied

[ionic breach]

hows the sound?

[polar girder]

New uniform PBT shallow profile from cannon keys

[polar girder]

I’ll check it out. Thanks

Then I’ll try the GMK cosmos. Whatever those are

[stray tiger]

Looks great!

[polar girder]

https://cannonkeys.com/collections/pbs

Their blanks are dropping today

[orchid thunder]

what case is this?

[elfin garnet]

Frog Mini

[orchid thunder]

thank you

[stone flax]

frog mini

[cyan zodiac]

frog mini number 1

[uneven sequoia]

honestly it sounds basically the same as the original case. when i move over the case foam from it i think itll sound identical

[stone flax]

Tasty forg

[elfin garnet]

cleeean

[polar girder]

Frog mini so good dude

[elfin garnet]

the best

[polar girder]

I don’t even mind I overpayed lol

[polar girder]

That’s hot

[elfin garnet]

so good that I want to buy another one to paint it black lol

[polar girder]

I kind of want a cool artisan keycap but I keep fking with these weirdo profiles and will never get anything that works lol

Until cosmos drops I guess

[cyan zodiac]

go cherry profile and you won't have that issues

[polar girder]

What’s a good black on black set for cherry profile tho

Preferably PBT

[cyan zodiac]

gmk dark

[polar girder]

GMK dark impossible to find

[safe linden]

Hello, im looking for switches for the wooting 60he i know that i want to buy the tofu60 redux and was thinking maybe magnetic jade cuz they are prelubed can any1 recomend switches that are easy to press down and are prelubed switches a good choice?

[cyan zodiac]

there was one on sale like 3 days ago

[stone flax]

shenpo bob

[pulsar schooner]

Out on uniform sadly but those do look interesting

[polar girder]

New or MM?

[stone flax]

easy to press down is kinda a weird ask

i assume you mean something with light springs

[safe linden]

Dont know how to explain what i mean

[safe linden]

Yes

[stone flax]

but ngl heavy tactiles also easy to press lols

[uneven sequoia]

arent these just a more curved xda profile?

[polar girder]

That looks grey AF lol

Great price tho

[polar girder]

Idk not dropped yet

[elfin garnet]

Get 40g RAW HE

[stone flax]

jades are like 40something bottom out? Raws are also 40, can always buy lekker 35g/45g springs or geons 42.5g springs and spring swap

[uneven sequoia]

they made a profie comparison on thw website, i feel like they didnt include xda because its way too similar lol

[safe linden]

Ok, thx and if i buy jades do i leave them or should i relube them?

[stone flax]

up to you

[cyan zodiac]

local i think used

doesn't matter it sold already

[stone flax]

id just pass over the lubed parts and oil springs

or leave stock

havent heard bad things about jades stock job

[uneven sequoia]

why the tofu though, its so basic because everyone has the same case. its always the og case, alumaze or the tofu

[safe linden]

Okok

[safe linden]

Cuz im broke

[ionic breach]

the tofu is just clean

and its 59usd

[uneven sequoia]

clean but basic

[uneven sequoia]

fair

[harsh dove]

And sharp

[ionic breach]

people like minimalist stuff

[safe linden]

What can u recomend

[ionic breach]

or some people who arent that invested but still wants a clean case

[safe linden]

Has to be white

[stone elbow]

Price would probably be a big factor

[safe linden]

90€

[stone flax]

thats a lot of cases

[uneven sequoia]

heres a few i think look better imo

Why are keycaps so expensive 100€ for white keycaps….

[uneven sequoia]

there is a whole list of cases that are supported https://wooting-technologies.notion.site/de7a52e2b5a941258a17e448b0c9d9b0?v=5ec0b31c59db4a51b8a86a1288249e9f

[ionic breach]

for keycaps just get stock

unless you want to shell out the big bucks

[safe linden]

Oh thx was boutta ask if i have to mod that case

[safe linden]

But the Stock ones are black 🙁

I have an all white setup

[ionic breach]

there are white stock

[stone elbow]

Buy the module for white keycaps, it lets you choose

[safe linden]

Oh yeah, thats a Price that is reasonable

[safe linden]

Alr ordered a full wooting wanted one fast to play cs2

Today the Update ruined my Plans

[uneven sequoia]

As long as they are pbt most should sound the same. If you want cheap stuff look on AliExpress too. They have long shipping times but the price is worth it for some things

[stone flax]

they arent

[safe linden]

On kbd Fans and other sites they were pretty pricey

[uneven sequoia]

If you are looking at GMK keycaps then yeah lol they're overrated

[ionic breach]

they are high end

[stone flax]

[ionic breach]

dont bother with them

[stone flax]

Gmk spacebars hit different

[ionic breach]

ur just getting white anyways

[uneven sequoia]

Do they really though lmao

[safe linden]

Whats high end abt a keycap?

[stone flax]

yessir

[ionic breach]

without artisans

[pulsar schooner]

I just want GMK in pbt. I hate getting shiny caps

[ionic breach]

then can go to 200

btw artisans are like $50 to $100ish per keycap

[cyan zodiac]

it exist

[pulsar schooner]

Not in all color ways tho

[uneven sequoia]

Basically, just look on Amazon or AliExpress for a cheap set like under $50. You probably won't be disappointed and of course later on you can buy a better set if you want

[stone flax]

hammerworks and old bsp is kinda that

[cyan zodiac]

well it is newish

btu abs sounds better tho

[pulsar schooner]

True but also cherry profile is 🤮

[cyan zodiac]

and color is nice on abs vs pbt

[cyan zodiac]

[pulsar schooner]

SA, and its variants all the way for me

MDA my fav rn

[stone flax]

wait so ur not looking for cherry

[broken cape]

that akd64 looks like as if I asked my colleague to 3d print me a case at home lol

[uneven sequoia]

And is that a bad thing 😂

[broken cape]

I am a basic tofu guy here who bought it because of the modern minimalist look :P

[pulsar schooner]

I like GMK’s colorways, that’s about it, not a fan of ABS, or cherry and that’s like 99% of what they offer

[broken cape]

the zt60 i still get, but that has a little more of a retro vibe to it .. don't get me wrong, I like that a lot, but you need to commit to that :D

[pulsar schooner]

Waiting for its board

[willow mauve]

aliexpress is decent for keyboard parts right?

the tofu 60 redux case on there is legit?

[harsh dove]

Yes

[stray tiger]

Ive been on a losing streak for artisan raffles lately but finally won one last week

[lapis gyro]

What are the chances of being able to get a replacement Flaretech switch top?

[little glen]

message support

but they are very scarce now

[stray tiger]

Roughly 16.332 to 1

[polar girder]

Ooo nice. Excite.

[lapis gyro]

That exact?

Dang

[harsh dove]

[little glen]

yoo

[polar girder]

I’m in

I love that caps lock

[little glen]

oh fuck yeah theres international kit

god damn the blanks too

[polar girder]

Yeah and the artisan

Wish it was black tho NGL

[harsh dove]

Can’t wait

[devout torrent]

thanks mark , i must be one of the first 🤌

[little glen]

september 15

cam can you ping me when its up (if you happen to remember)

[stray tiger]

I won this archetype kolk raffle last week so now I'm on the hunt for a good beige set

[glossy pagoda]

What do you think of them? 😛

[potent root]

Amazing! They are manufactured by Hejin right?

[glossy pagoda]

Would rather not confirm or deny who manufactures them

[potent root]

They definitely are not Gaterons. But they definitely are better than the Gaterons

[stray tiger]

Hejin doesnt manufacture switches

[potent root]

The new v2s look like these Hejin Yellows https://kprepublic.com/a/amp/products/hejin-magnetic-yellow-switch-7-0-edition-linear-for-magnetic-mechanical-keyboard-35gf-pa66-pom-for-wooting-60he-80he-pre-lubed

[polar girder]

No more little leg on the stem, eh ?

[stray tiger]

I understand they look similar, but Hejin isn't the manufacturer, they are the brand. Just like Gateron was the manufacturer and Lekker was the brand

Also, it's worth noting that the yellow color of the stem is the only real similarity between the V2 stem and the Hejin stem. There are some big differences.

[worthy epoch]

👀

[stray tiger]

I need to use the new wooting emojis more

[harsh dove]

I’ll probs get the artisan since no novelties

[devout torrent]

grain gold is the manufacturer I believe

[harsh dove]

LekkerWorks (OEM)

[little glen]

Group buy will be up around the time of my birthday so i think i can convince people to pitch in and i‘ll be able to buy an artisan and maybe some blanks also

[celest parrot]

That's a beautiful set of keycaps

[polar girder]

Bro it’s fricking silver tho

I’m shook

[harsh dove]

It’s black and polycarb

With alu accent

[polar girder]

The dude is so obsessed with all black everything then comes out with a big shiny silver ball artisan

[harsh dove]

[stray tiger]

@harsh dove should we get this? Black Myth: Wukong

[spice plover]

Are these dumb names

Keyuality or Keyukeycaps or keyucaps

[harsh dove]

I’ve been eyeing that tbh

[stray tiger]

I was too until Shroud said it was a game of the year potential so itll probably bust

[harsh dove]

lol he really said that already?

Damn

[harsh dove]

So he’s basically saying it’s on par with Elden Ring

Game that came out last night. Off-topic but I'm looking for something new to play so I've been looking. I'll probably pass though

Might do another playthrough of BG3

[elfin garnet]

wow, INT kit. I'm so happpy

[young marten]

what is the best switches for the wooting ?

[austere creek]

there is no objective best. you gotta state what you want from a switch

goes for all switches not just HE switches

[untold wigeon]

Gmk abs isn’t like any other abs you have used

[harsh dove]

I’ve yet to beat that game still

[young marten]

well ig for the sound

like a smoother sound

[polar girder]

I have that game on my wishlist

[harsh dove]

It’s really fun, at least I’ve always liked it

Believe it’s on sale for $23 rn

[stray tiger]

Forgot to tell you Ill be in CO for 6 days in 2 weeks, but don't think it's near you (Glenwood Springs area)

[magic plinth]

how do you make a keyboard have a deeper tone

[stray tiger]

Lots of ways. Change plate material, switch, dampening material, case material. The question depends on how much you wish to spend and how important it is to you.

[magic plinth]

i have just a stock 60 he and i was curious what i could do

bc my backspace is really deep but the rest of the keys aren't

[harsh dove]

Oh dang, what you doing up there?

Just a mere 160+ miles away lol

The GF wanted to go for her birthday. Will be fly fishing mainly

[harsh dove]

Oh super cool

[stray tiger]

MX stem compatible

[winged cedar]

and perhaps where to find the cheapest are, or even dupes I dont mind/sorry if not allowed to mention dupes just delete comment

[elfin garnet]

yup gonna use it for when I lube stuff etc so I don't stain my good mats

[polar girder]

Mines on the 27th

You guys/girl are almost as cool as me

Going to celebrate by buying a new fridge

[winged cedar]

hmm fair point, I guess just some common sites to browse or even specific sellers on sites like aliexpress

[elfin garnet]

I just finished watching 5 seasons of Yellowstone in a span of 1.5 weeks and I'm in love with US landscape. Wanna go asap

[stone flax]

no...

like i mean..

list a price

😭

[winged cedar]

around 50 USD I guess

[stray tiger]

This look fun!

[tired frigate]

Anyone selling Geon raw HE in the US? 👀👀

Lol

[stray tiger]

We saw the best double rainbow I've ever seen while we were in the mountains this weekend

Super cool

@stone flax

@winged cedar This is what he’s doing rn lol

[stone flax]

[tawdry tree]

it looks sharp, instead if being cut in, the material around it is removed yk what I mean?

[flat cobalt]

You getting it?

[stray tiger]

I already have a better artisan for that set. Ive been holding on to it for like 2 years

[elfin garnet]

Let us see

[flat cobalt]

Ohhhhh that's a good feeling having something stored away, until the perfect moment

[stray tiger]

Artkey Porcus

[flat cobalt]

[elfin garnet]

Yoooooooooooo that's sick

[tawdry tree]

Although it isn’t my thing, it definitely looks interesting, like a statement piece.

[tawdry tree]

can the ball roll?

[flat cobalt]

I don't know let me ask

[tawdry tree]

fidget toy keycap

[elfin garnet]

This could work as well

https://artkeyuniverse.com/catalogue/sculpt/sirius/colorway/infinite-void

[harsh dove]

No it’s fixed via screw

[tawdry tree]

man

😭

[tawdry tree]

https://divinikey.com/products/geon-raw-he-linear-switches

[stray tiger]

But its the Porcus v1.5

[elfin garnet]

Yeah that looks so good. Imma need to start joining these raffles

[stray tiger]

Oh found the exact one https://artkeyuniverse.com/catalogue/sculpt/porcus-v15/colorway/voidscape

[winged cedar]

sorry was in a meeting

lemme look up the diffrences

either tbh. both seem like good choices, colors also dont matter just wanna see some options and designs

these are the grail keycaps tho, just cant find them and probably wont find em for a reasonable price

I think only requirement id have is shine through on the lettering so i can see what letter im pressing in the dark

[uneven cradle]

You're not missing too much higround spends more money on marketing and licensing then making quality keycaps

[stray tiger]

Those keycaps arent going to be great

[tawdry tree]

Have you tried them yet? They look really similar, the Lekker V2s even have those useless rails Hejin/Grain Gold copied from Gateron 😄

[winged cedar]

plus i think the profile is OEM dont think that works on wooting 80HE

[stray tiger]

It works

[uneven cradle]

Oem works on wooting keyboards in fact by default the 60he comes with OEM keycaps

[winged cedar]

so MX and OEM work on wooting?

[stray tiger]

MX stems and OEM profile work yes. But almost all profiles work

[winged cedar]

ahh i see, sorry, right now i just have a keykrone and my 80he is getting here in Nov, so i just wanna learn and be prepped for it

thanks for explaining

[uneven cradle]

It's all good it can be a bit confusing the terminology

[stray tiger]

This should help #🪛│modding_faq message

[polar girder]

Why tf isn’t it black

[winged cedar]

will read through right now before asking anymore questions🫂

[polar girder]

That’s fking nuts

Nice

[stone flax]

highround isnt quality

its all licensing

[polar girder]

Glossy but sick. Nice

[stone flax]

and theyre rev dyesub

lol

[stone flax]

mx is a stem standard

oem is a profile

like cherry

just to make it ez to understand

[tawdry tree]

I hope they have used either a different yellow pigment or a different lube, the white bottom housing and the transparent top housing ended up yellow with the Hejins.

[stray tiger]

Is that tinted lube or did the plastic color change?

[elfin garnet]

For some reason I think the cosmos artisan is gonna look darker irl

[tawdry tree]

It’s carried by the lube but it stains the bottom housing

[stray tiger]

I just found out that my good friend in the local keeb group will be one of the official artisan collab creators

[tawdry tree]

you can’t just wipe it off there
