[high sphinx]

This is from a guy where i bought my salvation case from

[harsh dove]

Wally Patina does some nice work

[high sphinx]

Yup

[harsh dove]

I have a cable done by him and Randall from WiredIn

[carmine cradle]

Anyone tried a DCX profile keycaps set?

[high sphinx]

@ionic breach u have any plans to change something about ur board or nah ?

[high sphinx]

Damn that looks cool man

[high sphinx]

I did not

[carmine cradle]

https://drop.com/buy/drop-dcx-emerald-keycap-set

looks interesting

[harsh dove]

He also did this

(Not mine)

[ionic breach]

my wooting? not really

raws are still my favourite switches

[tropic urchin]

@harsh dove paging mr Cam

[high sphinx]

Yeah green keycaps can look good in some setups i like it

[tropic urchin]

GET THE FUCK IN HERE ITS ALU PLATE BUYING TIME

[harsh dove]

Nah bro they sold out

[ionic breach]

alr have a nice keycap set

[harsh dove]

I bought all already

[tropic urchin]

restockkkkkkkkkkkkk

[high sphinx]

I will never get why u would ecer buy hhkb

[ionic breach]

maybe a new plate but thats all

[high sphinx]

U have 80he ?

[tropic urchin]

i already got mine so hella cap

[harsh dove]

Well that’s Randall the creator of that board so he can change the layout whenever he wants lol

[harsh dove]

From Toronto?

[tropic urchin]

ye ye ye

[harsh dove]

Did you check if Ali has any yet?

[high sphinx]

Yeah but still even people who buy on mechmarket i dont get hhkb

[harsh dove]

Yeah fair enough

[high sphinx]

Alu plate for 80he or ?

[ionic breach]

damn

speak of the devil

[tropic urchin]

im assuming it hasnt changed

[high sphinx]

Imagine trying to crouch haha

[harsh dove]

Use caps lol

[tropic urchin]

never changed any of the other times i looked

[harsh dove]

I use C to crouch tho

[tropic urchin]

ye ye

[harsh dove]

I don’t like using Ctrl

[ionic breach]

has anyone tried the foam gaskets?

from toronto

[harsh dove]

Nah I want too tho

[high sphinx]

Ah ok ty

[high sphinx]

Even in counterstrike ?

[tropic urchin]

now i wait for my silvery goodness

[high sphinx]

Alu with poms ?

[tropic urchin]

end goal is GT80 Silver case + alu plate and POMs

alu on alu

[harsh dove]

Idk why $50 for a plate and some foams seems crazy to me

[high sphinx]

Yeah i wanted alu plate for frog mini but i had ro get fr4 since alu not in stoch 😓

[tropic urchin]

yeah im not happy about it either

[harsh dove]

I don’t play that

[high sphinx]

Lucky you

[tropic urchin]

the foam by itself is $20 which is gross af

[tawdry tree]

This 60% without the chin would look fantastic imo. Kinda removes most character the event has but still.

[ionic breach]

its joever

[harsh dove]

My friends tried to get me to play CS and Val but I don’t like those games + toxic lol

It’s like old CoD lobbies

[tropic urchin]

toxicity is half the fun

[high sphinx]

True i recently started playing cs again and i also play overwatch

[tropic urchin]

im prob gonna put my $16 in cash back rewards towards it so it cancels out the foam

[harsh dove]

Ah the extended bit at the wrist?

[tawdry tree]

ordered V3 knights

[tawdry tree]

yeah

I like even bezels

[harsh dove]

Yeah would’ve preferred it up top but it’s fine

[tawdry tree]

forehead enjoyer

;)

[harsh dove]

Lmao

[high sphinx]

I wonder hiw they are let me know

[tawdry tree]

prob not gonna be any noticeable difference

can compare them all so they’ll be interesting

[high sphinx]

Nah true but still i am interested in the changes

[tawdry tree]

I don’t even know what changed 😭

[harsh dove]

Me either

And I haven’t needed stabs yet so

[tawdry tree]

I don’t need stabs either

[tropic urchin]

WOAH WTF I just found a more purply cosmos GMK group buy

oh my

this might be a cop.....

https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=123814.0

[tawdry tree]

link already

[tropic urchin]

GMK Selene if its anything close to renders is going to be stunning

[tawdry tree]

FUCKKKKK

that is hot

[tropic urchin]

RIGHT?!?!!

[harsh dove]

Would look good on my silver GT80

[tropic urchin]

yeah im gonna have to hit up mech market...

[tawdry tree]

if it actually ends up looking like this, cosmos is dead to me

[tropic urchin]

your silver gt80 okay buddy

[harsh dove]

Lmao

[tropic urchin]

now you're copying me

[high sphinx]

Looks good

[little glen]

i got a gray gt80

[tropic urchin]

thats what im saying

[harsh dove]

Nah just get both

Cosmos and Selene

[little glen]

first time i posted it someone started dming me asking what color it is and when i said gray i was accused of lying

[harsh dove]

Keep em next to each other

[little glen]

they were convinced its silver

[harsh dove]

Lying Wizard

[little glen]

oh yeah cam did you see my gt80 w/ cosmos

[harsh dove]

Don’t think so

[little glen]

https://discord.com/channels/167181566978555904/1342211699234832485

i took the pictures with no natural light so

maybe thats why it actually looks gray

[harsh dove]

Looks good

Yeah it does almost look silver

[little glen]

yep super happy with it tbh

[tropic urchin]

october 2024 group buy makes me super sad

[little glen]

i never realised how little i need legends until i got these caps hahaha

[tropic urchin]

i would've copped this shit immediately

[little glen]

yeah i didnt even know about these caps haha

[tropic urchin]

actually the contrast is low key kinda nice

makes it pop alot more

[little glen]

still need my cosmos artisans to arrive

i also spent like an hour putting the correct keycaps with correct legends for german layout

had to use phone flashlight to get a better look at em haha

[harsh dove]

Says my cosmos should be here Monday

[little glen]

i think i will replace my escape and mode key with artisan

i could have bought that 4u but i actually use the keys

i would love to know when the caps arrive but paypal wants me to download their stupid app to track

and i dont want to do that

so itll be a nice surprise when it arrives

[high sphinx]

https://discord.com/channels/167181566978555904/1342905879376171089 ok this build is also cool imo

[calm pulsar]

ohhh it's what we talked about with @tawdry tree, pretty much a set we imagined using new plastics

is it a new gmk?

or something else

[tropic urchin]

yeah i think it just started GB in october

GMK Selene

nah im legit VERY tempted

[tawdry tree]

EXACTLY and it’s right here!

[cyan lark]

Oh fuck you.

[tropic urchin]

I found a new site aggregator of former Groupbuys and found this..........

[cyan lark]

Is this the cosmos we were promised?

[tropic urchin]

MAYBE

[tawdry tree]

Case is, yeah. The combination not so much imo.

[cyan lark]

Just renders for now, tempering expectations. But keep me on the notification list, please.

[high sphinx]

Yeah exactly just wanted to post it cause the case is so cool jeycap combo could undeed be better

[calm pulsar]

I think the renders still amplify the cosmos'y effect like it was with the actual gmk cosmos, but at least the legends here are white, so the design can pop up more and you can make out the legends

[cyan lark]

Oh wait there are sample photos

[tropic urchin]

Silver case also brings out the color more too

[high sphinx]

I would probably use some dark purole with that

[tropic urchin]

nah i hate this

i need this

so

so

os

[cyan lark]

https://imgur.com/01MsnPo

[tropic urchin]

badly

[calm pulsar]

I need a set with that color, maybe with a little blue in it, and with white legends

[tropic urchin]

fuck it im buying the Base and novelties whenever the prices become available

[cyan lark]

Selene is that, no?

[tropic urchin]

i actually do not care

[tropic urchin]

I think he wants it green

[cyan lark]

Or you mean a blue/green

[calm pulsar]

no I want something like cyan/sea green

or teal I guess it's called

[cyan lark]

Gotcha, that would be nice.

[calm pulsar]

my guitar will be that color hehe, can't wait

[tropic urchin]

im an absolute sucker for midnight purple and we get midnight cosmos

take my FUCKING MONEY

[cyan lark]

Blue is a top tier color for me so Selene definitely perks my ears

[calm pulsar]

actually there is gmk prussian blue which is close, but without the shiny effect

[tawdry tree]

sameeeeee

ty tons for sharing

[tropic urchin]

i wasnt expecting to find anything in past groupbuys and when i saw this i audibly gasped

[cyan lark]

Dig that they made the accent pieces just more purple than blue

[tropic urchin]

yall want the website aggregator

or calendar i guess

[cyan lark]

Honestly no I need money to feed myself and the animals

[calm pulsar]

waittt selena has an extensions kit with teal looking mods, wtf I need that but in a full set

[tropic urchin]

https://keycaplendar.firebaseapp.com/ic

[barren token]

I'm tired boss

[calm pulsar]

a full set like that😭

[cyan lark]

You're doing great champ

In the home stretch

[harsh dove]

Then 100 Monkeytype sessions after to break em in

[high sphinx]

It will be worth it

[cyan lark]

And a spacebar drum sesh

[tropic urchin]

latest update for my cosmos fans

[high sphinx]

I would like to see a keycap set in the rastafari colors and an artisan with bob marleys head

And then on the side keycaps as extra keycaps dont worry and then the line under be happy

I would insta buy

[calm pulsar]

gmk selene guitars

[tropic urchin]

Fucking

Christ

So yeah this is happening

Move over Kitsune it’s now Selene’s world and my bank account lives there

[high sphinx]

Any opinions about my idea ?

[tropic urchin]

@calm pulsar even better bc it goes with my purple cable and mice

[calm pulsar]

yeah I imagine it all looking nice together

[calm pulsar]

lyrics written on keycaps will have to be dyesub probably, cause double shot is not so precise

[tropic urchin]

With my salmon nigiri escape key it’s gonna be like a solar eclipse

[high sphinx]

Oh i see still would be cool imo

[uneven cradle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-Iyp2LLiMM

gimmi

(the 60)

[high sphinx]

What keyboard ubusing now ?

[cyan lark]

Logo gives me hints of Samus

[uneven cradle]

Currently going between these

[high sphinx]

Left is frog ? What olate u use ?

[uneven cradle]

Yeah frog mini with PP plate

[high sphinx]

Ih nice and u want neo 60 to replace the frog ?

[uneven cradle]

Just want neo60cu to have it

[high sphinx]

Oh haha i see 😅

[cyan lark]

One thing I do not understand about a trend in this hobby is the mirror finish on weights. I dunno why someone would want fingerprint magnets on stuff like that.

[high sphinx]

I like ur 80he build also

[uneven cradle]

Yeah I will not get the mirror finish

[ionic breach]

wut why

its not something you touch often

[cyan lark]

Why what? Why would I not want a surface that highlights fingerprints?

[ionic breach]

just dont touch it

[cyan lark]

Do not even speak of it

🤷 different strokes, clearly

Brushed/matte all day for this guy

[ionic breach]

🫡

mirror dusk is so fking clean

[cyan lark]

It's beautiful no doubt, I just know it would be that way for 3 microseconds

[uneven cradle]

I'll probably go for the copper or brass backweight

[high sphinx]

May be a stupid question but are they all the same in weight ?

[uneven cradle]

I'm guessing not but I don't have numbers

Side profile

[high sphinx]

Oh i thought it was all the same but just other paint or finish whatever u wanna call ot but i dont know

[polar girder]

What is this

[tropic urchin]

New GMK cosmos bröthër

[uneven cradle]

The mirrors will all be the same but the brass and copper will have different weights since they are different materials

[polar girder]

lol what

[tropic urchin]

GMK Selene

[high sphinx]

Aha i see

Yo dear community imma head out and watch some twitch all have a wonderull night or day if u live in the us

https://tenor.com/view/cat-sticker-line-sticker-bye-sticker-goodbye-sticker-hand-wave-gif-9538845891731795440

[uneven cradle]

[harsh dove]

Copper

Copper > Brass

[harsh dove]

Copper is heavier than Brass

Brass is an alloy made of copper and zinc but solid copper is denser

[high sphinx]

I still wonder if the weight of the frog mini is the same with the silver one and the gold/brass colored one

[polar girder]

More dense *

[polar girder]

Fire

[harsh dove]

bro what lol

same thing

[cyan lark]

https://tenor.com/view/gideon-nerdy-gif-nerdy-gideon-nerdy-pushes-up-glasses-pushes-up-glasses-gif-25914290

[high sphinx]

@harsh dove the weight u have in the frog is brass right but just silver colored or what dobu think ?

[polar girder]

Bro said denser

[harsh dove]

its a word

[polar girder]

lol I’m just trolling

[harsh dove]

mf

[cyan lark]

He fucking got you

Got us all 😭

🙂

[polar girder]

Even got myself

[harsh dove]

Lemme go get my merriam webster

[cyan lark]

And hit someone with it

[harsh dove]

That's not nice

[barren token]

[cyan lark]

You're right, gotta suppress those violent tendencies

[harsh dove]

Gotta wake up and choose peace

not violence

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/mission-passed-gta-run-gif-12039064

[cyan lark]

Fuck yeah dude, enjoy

[little glen]

pls put a warning for the flashbang

[harsh dove]

[fluid ravine]

You see

[cyan lark]

Now... clack

[honest sparrow]

Hey guys, are there any compatible cases with wooting 80he?

[cyan lark]

Yes

[honest sparrow]

I love the zinc white, but ill wait for the v2

[honest sparrow]

Can I get some names to look it up please :)?

[cyan lark]

GT-80 and Bone80

[barren token]

gt80

[honest sparrow]

And are they any good?

[cyan lark]

Sounds like the GT-80 is fine to good. Bone I don't think I've actually heard from anybody on yet.

[honest sparrow]

Ok, I see the gt is kbd, should be good

[cyan lark]

But I don't have personal experience w/ either.

[honest sparrow]

Thanks mate

I think the zinc white one is the coolest

The bone80 i havent been able to find it yet

[cyan lark]

The gt-80 is alu fyi, not zinc

https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808066994174.html?gatewayAdapt=glo2usa4itemAdaptI think the bone is an Ali special for now

[sweet oak]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-gif-25117042

I’ll just have to see what looks better with gmk November fog with it

[honest sparrow]

The gt-80 is only available on pre order?

[wanton spruce]

would anyone be able to tell me if the Geon Raptor HE Switches are compatable with the 80 he?

[thorn zealot]

dont use em

theres other better switches

[wanton spruce]

any reccomendations ? ill cancel my order

[ripe karma]

jade pro

[thorn zealot]

raws

poms

[wanton spruce]

happen to have a link to those ?

i looked up a little on reddit and ppl saying jades have more stem wobble then the raptor hes

[thorn zealot]

does are normal jades

jade pros are better

[thorn zealot]

wooting sells both raws and poms

[wanton spruce]

my issue with wooting is time they will take to get here for me

wasted a full coffee in the board fml

and wana replace everything asap

[thorn zealot]

wym by waste coffee in the board

u spilled coffee in ur kb

[wanton spruce]

yeah

and now all my current switches are sticky and im afraid of corrosion so i wana get them out and get new ones in asap

[thorn zealot]

ur kb still works?

[wanton spruce]

yep it works perfect minus the sticky switches

[thorn zealot]

surprised

[wanton spruce]

wooting has a water resistant coating on the boards

so i mean if it didnt work id of been even more shocked

it wasnt a small coffee either i wasted like 16 ozs in the board

[thorn zealot]

i didnt know that but still surprising to me

also are u in the us or somewhere else

[wanton spruce]

im happy it does if not i would of been ruined

im in canada

so if i order from wooting my stuff ships from eu

[thorn zealot]

only places ik for raws are from geonworks and milktooth

and poms from milktooth and like ali

[wanton spruce]

i think ill stick with the ones i have ordered for now as long as i know they will work

just so i can get them swapped as fast as possible

and if i dont like them that much ill prob end up getting some jades later on

[noble mason]

it's a lot quieter irl i'd say

[uneven cradle]

would still recommend cleaning it with isopropyl alcohol if it was not water like Andrew mentions here #1335979633258139659 message

[wanton spruce]

yeah thats my plan still

im just gona wait for the new switches to show up to do it cuz i dont wana take it all apart and put it back together only to put sticky switches back in to it

[fluid ravine]

That one vid that wooting made when puting a wooting in the dishwasher

[high sphinx]

What keyboard is that ?

[noble mason]

Boyi 66Pro

[high sphinx]

Oh never heard of it before

[noble mason]

yea it's a hall effect keyboard

rlly budget

[thorn zealot]

its in stock!!

[fluid ravine]

Fuck off

The fact it says Buy Now 😭

[high sphinx]

Hey thackson what is ur current build ?

[fluid ravine]

Optimum Case
Venom 60HE 7U (Don't ban me Wooting )
Geon RAW HE 60g
Gmk Botanical
Alu Plate
TypeplusxYIKB Stabs
Friction mount with Bakeneko60 30a Oring

On my FR4 plate, it has Raws with Pbtfans Xray key caps

Which is what I'm using rn but the list above is what I mainly use at this moment

Future plan rn is waiting for Leggera Case and my Duhuk Core HE switches

[high sphinx]

What is duhuk core ?

[fluid ravine]

Fuck I don't got the images

Uhhh

[high sphinx]

Has anyone jere tested them ?

[fluid ravine]

Geon did

[high sphinx]

They good ?

[fluid ravine]

CAM and I already ordered a set

[high sphinx]

U have ttcs ?

[fluid ravine]

Sure ig lol
The stem rail design is made to soften or dampen the contact of the top housing to reduce the sound.

And iirc, someone tested them and said that the Duhuk stem wobble is slightly more tighter than jade pros

[fluid ravine]

Nah

Need to save my money for the Leggera

[high sphinx]

Yeah gotcha i got the wooting ttcs

The pom ones

[fluid ravine]

Icic

Ordered? Or you already got thrm

[tawdry tree]

lol

[fluid ravine]

Thanks aligner

[high sphinx]

Yup

[fluid ravine]

[high sphinx]

How is the wobble on those ?

[fluid ravine]

^

[high sphinx]

Oh sorry did not see the messege mb that is really good then

[tawdry tree]

Raw HE top housing, so probably very similar to identical.

[high sphinx]

Oh ok ty

Well guys a little bit earlier i said imma head out but now imma head out for real wanna watch a little bit of twitch before i fall asleep

[tawdry tree]

Gn man

[fluid ravine]

Gnn

[fluid ravine]

Who made them?

[tawdry tree]

Manu? Hejin

If you meant the pictures, it’s Imoshi as usual. ;)

[honest sparrow]

Bro, why you told me about the friction pad, you are costing me money

[stark osprey]

It's a solid buy though, I like mine alot.

[tawdry tree]

It’d be perfect for u ngl

[honest sparrow]

Im looking it up, Is the friction fit pad on wooting site?

[honest sparrow]

Yes, I hate you

https://wooting.io/product/friction-fit-pad?Title=Default+Title

[acoustic narwhal]

Lol

[honest sparrow]

On what case are you using it?

[tawdry tree]

Cause the pad works a bit like a diffuser too I imagine, you’ll see the LEDs better from the side with the pad than with what you got now

[tawdry tree]

[honest sparrow]

I was thinking about doing an underglow mod

But I assumed it will make it sound even worse

Is the one on the link? I thought it was some kind of silicone but looks like a piece of plastic on the pic

[stark osprey]

#1258945426548330557 message

Tried the gummy O-ring before that, but it was too tight for my case, was bending PCB to remove. Friction pad is just right.

[honest sparrow]

https://i.imgur.com/to84YZp_d.webp?maxwidth=1520&fidelity=grand

[stark osprey]

Frost Tofu? or wait.... Baldr?

[honest sparrow]

So is the one on the wooting website? Im not sure because it looks like a piece of plastic and I thought it was silicone

[honest sparrow]

Tofu60 like mine modded with leds on the back

This is mine with solely pcb rgb

The jade pros fucked my rgb

[stark osprey]

Yes it is the one on the Wooting website, I think it is silicone, I'd have to check. Feels like it

[honest sparrow]

It used to look like this:

Tribute to my counter strike fade knife

Now the yellow looks greenish

[stark osprey]

Pretty creative, I like that!

[honest sparrow]

That is on rapid mode

This was typing

[sour blade]

That link made me think you made an "Imgur" themed keybaord lmaooo

[sour blade]

"Wow this guy must really like using Imgur"

he made a imgur themed board !

[honest sparrow]

XDdddddd

If they pay me i’ll do it

[honest sparrow]

I like it too but you have to put some stuff under

And do a cable to route the rgb power

https://i.imgur.com/KNjyxkf_d.webp?maxwidth=1520&fidelity=grand

[honest sparrow]

The guy is using durocks, it should sound like shit xD

[sour blade]

LED strip wtf

This is some crazy addition

[honest sparrow]

@stark osprey so, how the friction pad works? You dont use screws?

[sour blade]

To since u guys r talking about friction fit pad, does it fit the Tofu well? Or will it be too loose with tofu

[honest sparrow]

I really like fiddling with things, but im concerned about how it sounds with all that stuffed and wondering if it will get hot

[sour blade]

Cuz im assuming its designed for wootings cases

[sacred elm]

not 100% fade anymore

[honest sparrow]

I need it for tofu

[sour blade]

true wooting heating up a bit with that

[honest sparrow]

And the tutorial on wootings yt says it does work but risky to damage because the keeb is not grounded

[stark osprey]

Yes no screws, install is pretty easy, just gotta remove the sandwich pad first from pcb : https://youtu.be/NvMwijZU-L0?si=2BLD6T5sR5YkopcK&t=386

[honest sparrow]

So if you flip the keyboard the pcb actually falls from the case?

[stark osprey]

No friction holds it in place.

[honest sparrow]

Im getting it

But, man Im ordering on monday a 80he with the new ttcs rgb

[stark osprey]

Did you solder the leds to the wooting pcb?

[honest sparrow]

🫰🫰💶💶💸

[sour blade]

Is grounding rly that big of an issue or is it just corporate "overing their bases"

Covering *

[sacred elm]

@stark osprey did you finish lubing poms?

[honest sparrow]

No, i didnt do it. The leds are not soldered, they are just attached with the led glue, you see 2 cables that power the leds and the small board with wifi to control it. Some guy on reddit did it and postes the tutorial

[honest sparrow]

This is mine with solely pcbs rgb

[sour blade]

Wait isnt it good that the PCB is insulated from the case if i have massive static discharge im more likely going to touch the case, than conduct eletricity by touching my plastic keycaps

If u know electrical engineering plz lmk if im wrong

[honest sparrow]

I dont think plastic conducts electricity

[stark osprey]

Yep yep typing on them right now, just letting them break in. Feels good though , definitely liking it!

[honest sparrow]

Arent they prelubed?

Ttc poms? The new ones?

[stark osprey]

There's barely any lube out of the box, like towards the bottom of the springs in mine, I did complete relube of housing, stem, and springs.

[sacred elm]

No, they have only 3 drops of lube at the bottom

thats it

[honest sparrow]

Wtf

[sacred elm]

Yea, you need to hand lube them 100%

[honest sparrow]

I would enjoy that

I opened my lekkers yesterday, and they had more lube that I thought

[visual ore]

The three lubes dots represents the three hours you will spent actually lubing the TTCs

[tawdry tree]

If the mod sticks against the PCB and isn’t touching the case at all, I don’t see how it would affect sound so I think you’re good. It’s a cool mod if you get it working.

[honest sparrow]

How often you need to re lube switches? Like once a year?

[visual ore]

Never?

I mean you could do a touch up if you feel like the lube is gone

[sour blade]

my jades starting sounding terrible after a year, maybe cause i tried to save 3 bucks on aliexpress

had to relube

[honest sparrow]

Not sure if its worth it, I need to try the friction pad and see how it looks 👀

But still im concerned that the leds and small board could generate heat in there

[tawdry tree]

Just watercool you’re 60HE while your at it

no half work cmon now

[honest sparrow]

My akkos creamy yellow felt like that after a year

[honest sparrow]

Bro, dont make me spend more money xDd

I mean, the tofu acrylics is named something like frost

It should be cooling that mofo

[sour blade]

real engineering

[tawdry tree]

trueee 😂

[honest sparrow]

I spent like 80€ or so on stabs in less than a week xD

Just to find out that the durocks are trash, the tx ap are wonderful but they dont quite fit

And now the sw knights adventure

[sour blade]

tx ap are hard to work with but can pay off

[honest sparrow]

Backspace is stucked

[sour blade]

Try messing around with wire position

most of the time the wire is not centered

[honest sparrow]

Well, not all the time

[sour blade]

Ive been a TX ap grinder for a few years now

I used to grind down my PC plates with a hobby jnife

But u dont need to do that rly

Try and move the wire around left and right

[honest sparrow]

From behind? Like pcb side?

[sour blade]

Ill take some time to draw it, ill get back to you in a bit

[honest sparrow]

It is warped right?

[sour blade]

you can tell where its binding when building the board

[honest sparrow]

No problem! Thanks

[tawdry tree]

Steel plate :(

[harsh dove]

Says they arrived in my country

[sacred elm]

duhuk

[fluid ravine]

Eta?

I swear leggera better release by the time they get here

[sour blade]

ok

here is my updated guide for tx ap + wooting

[visual ore]

Honestly seems like a lot of work

[sour blade]

depends if you think its worth it

i really wanted zero compromise zero wobble

because ofcourse i have nothing to do other than to look closely at my keyboard on a nice saturday evening to see if my enter key is wobbling slightly

[visual ore]

xD

I kind of get it

Had to make a wedge today for a stabs I notice that was popping up.

[night atlas]

anyone know how to unbend stabwires that are "bowed"

it's warped in a manner where i don't need to untwist it, but flatten it instead

i assume a hammer and a flat surface should work right lol

[visual ore]

I feel you need a opposite curve tbh

Flat surface ain't enough

[night atlas]

damn

thats annoyin

alll this for a stab to just unbend

[visual ore]

You need to go past flat so that when you release pressure it springs back to straight

[night atlas]

yea good point

[tawdry tree]

this is great

[tropic urchin]

@tawdry tree I just looked at the other set for the person behind Selene and it was $89 for Base and novelties 😳

oh pls pls pls

[honest sparrow]

Broooo!!! I thought you were drawing it on a paper without much effort

Thanks buddy! I appreciate that! You are the goat!

[silver nest]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVInBOLSqoM

this sounds better than most wooting builds

[steel ibex]

does akko sell HE switches?

[honest sparrow]

I think they do, mine ar akko he

I cant find it anymore on their web

[quasi hinge]

How is the mouse going

Loving those omrons?

[tropic urchin]

I liked em before, but I am now a belieber in beastx

the metallic ping is kinda sick

[tropic urchin]

It has the ease of movement of the viper v3 pro at -16g and has the best click time of any mouse ive tried while also being magnesium

IDK how it gets better im gonna keep it a buck 50

side holes also arent even that bad either

[quasi hinge]

Yeah that is my other question sides or no sides, im willing to wait for the aides but maybe no sides is nicer

And omron over the black dot of course?

[quasi hinge]

Im really considering it

[tropic urchin]

I kinda like holes bc it forces my hand to grip it in a certain way

Solid side should also be good at +5g prob in added weight

[quasi hinge]

That was my thought also

[tropic urchin]

It feels like your gripping a flat skeleton

[quasi hinge]

But not sure if feels weird

[tropic urchin]

Slightly weird but not a deal breaker

I don’t notice it

[quasi hinge]

Looking back if you could, would you get full sides?

[quasi hinge]

I think +2

[tropic urchin]

Honestly for me I don’t feel a large difference

I have solid sides on my Stormbreaker

With the vertical slits I don’t feel it

[marsh saffron]

Beastx supremacy

[quasi hinge]

Im at the page trying to decide before I click buy lol

[marsh saffron]

I'm gonna go solid sides when I order the pro

[quasi hinge]

Thats what im thinking

[marsh saffron]

I change my grip a lot and would benefit from the solid sides

However I do still like how the slits feel on my mini

[tropic urchin]

Yeah I do feel like this mouse is the first to equal the speed of the 80HE at full power

[quasi hinge]

Never used sides like that…

[tropic urchin]

VV3 was good but this is like crackhead speed

[quasi hinge]

Shucks haha

[quasi hinge]

Wow! And battery is good?

I mean still good?

[tropic urchin]

I don’t think you can go wrong with either but solid sides are available start of March

[tropic urchin]

I fully charged it so still seeing how it does at 4k

[quasi hinge]

Yeah I can pre order, dont mind waiting

[tropic urchin]

Came 3/4s

A lot don’t like the side holes but atleast for beastx verticals I don’t think it matters so that’s good in my book

[quasi hinge]

But I like the idea of side slits as my hands sweat and sometimes I feel my grip sliding…

And cant find any reviews

[tropic urchin]

New release

Which is why I copped

New sensor and shii

[quasi hinge]

Like sno, I have a gut feel about your recommendation

I trust it somehow haha

But I was researching the switches and for fps, seems like omron is the way to go

Just the side slits im debating

[tropic urchin]

What I will say is some of the best (and worst) decisions I’ve made have been on the fly yolos and this one was one of the good ones

I feel like an ADHD streamer with both

[thorn zealot]

Cuz it’s mx

[stark osprey]

I think that's the same sensor in Viper V2pro/ VMSE, the PAW 3950

[chilly mural]

Is the mouse really good?

[tropic urchin]

The clicks are brilliant

On Tiger ice skates and soft raiden it’s like flying everywhere

[chilly mural]

very noice

[quasi hinge]

Ty

[cyan lark]

Now give us the worst ones 😈

[tropic urchin]

for the keyboard space jade maxes are a fast and easy one

[tropic urchin]

Rog Azoth also comes to mind

[quasi hinge]

You bought that? Haha

[chilly mural]

The $500 one?

[quasi hinge]

Right there with you

[tropic urchin]

Non extreme

Moonlight

$200 one

[chilly mural]

okay, that's not too bad

[quasi hinge]

Ahhh okay, yeah not too bad

The 500$ is one of the biggest grifts Ive seen in a while lmao

You could have a fully modded wooting for that price and change lol

[tropic urchin]

I did enjoy the sound of the NX snow switches but performance was gross

[chilly mural]

Modded Zinc case Wooting with TTC POM. Can add on $100 keycaps

[tropic urchin]

@chilly mural @quasi hinge the really one big thing that I have noticed is that with other mice, I literally left click to shoot and I die before it shoots, the clicks are so quick that I dont feel the same issue remotely as much

it has almost negative play its so crisp

also my first magnesium mouse and I really enjoy the feel of it over traditional plastic

[quasi hinge]

Yeah the magnesium with cuts, lighter optical clicks makes me want to finally move away from my modded gpx1 (huano blue pink dot & tiger skates)

Plus I can go to 2k polling (& beyooond!)

[steel hemlock]

Lube/greased and clipped stabs (no other mods)

Before/after

Now I just gotta get a Pom switch

[sacred elm]

[tropic urchin]

That’s a pretty space bar 👀

[visual ore]

Jesus the stabilizers were bad

[glass comet]

does the plate foam that comes with the 60he module even make a difference in sound

[steel hemlock]

I know :,)

[steel hemlock]

Over having none? Id say yes

[glass comet]

lol i just changed it from poron to silicone and literally nothing changed

[haughty ingot]

for a spam heavy, movement based game, is continuous rapid trigger a good setting? trying to figure out it's ideal use case

[sacred elm]

doesnt matter if your actuation is lower than 0.5mm

but you can have it on, wont hurt

[haughty ingot]

oh that's interesting. ok so no obvious drawbacks? i'll test it

ty for the input

[sacred elm]

Yea if your actuation is low, you wont notice the difference

[haughty ingot]

kk good to know

i do seem to be double pressing my spacebar when typing lol - i'll have to get used to the sens or increase actuation point

[sacred elm]

Increase actuation and rapid trigger for spacebar

[noble mason]

it's probably subtle

silicone tends to have a muted clack while poron tends to be thockier im pretty sure

[fluid ravine]

Note : "The silicone pad gives a more muted experience of the sound profile by lowering more mid frequencies and creates shorter, snappier sounds. The foam pad mutes more of the higher frequencies creating more emphasis on 'thock'."- Wooting

"Although poron should mute higher frequencies, silicone lowers the mid frequencies which could mean that if the switch is neutral or low pitched then it should stay low pitched but more quiet vice versa with high frequency i presume which is why its more muted"- The Thackson

[noble mason]

ah i was right then

[fluid ravine]

TLDR: Silicone lowers mid frequencies and Poron mutes high frequencies

there

I stumbled upon it by accident earlier yesterday 😳

[kind helm]

me like this one more than the black one ngl

give me some color in my life

[tropic urchin]

You get it

Og cosmos didn’t have enough sparkly and legends were practically invisible

Purple and teal to create midnight purple with clear legends is 🫢

Novelties also kinda cool

[kind helm]

with a purple or blue salvation

Mmm...

new gateron he switches

[harsh dove]

They're not really new tbf, they're just Jade Gaming Recolors

[untold wigeon]

oh

damn

[sacred elm]

L switches

[quasi hinge]

New from Lameron!

[sour blade]

venom 6.25u restock

[tawdry tree]

Surelyyyy.. I doubt it’ll be around $85 for base.

[tawdry tree]

I don’t think separately but their Glares are good, quite stable. They come with the MonsGeek (Akko) boards.

[tawdry tree]

Why Sticky Rice V2s rather than V1s or some other open bottoms? V2s may be a deeper clack when hand lubed but still on the high end.

[tawdry tree]

Lateron, Lameron and Gatekeeperon, we gotta keep these in forever.

[noble mason]

i had open bottom switches as the stock ones that came with the board i hated the sound and feel of the hollow bottom

[steel ibex]

My friend claims he bought Akko HE switches for his 80he

[tawdry tree]

Did you try the Skylines or Master/Magnetos?

Those are closed bottom and also on the deeper end.

Still clack.

[noble mason]

i listened to sound tests for those and the sticky rices sounded deeper

[tawdry tree]

Interesting, Akko has a couple magnetic switches but only the latest “Glares” would be somewhat worth it.

If you can find them for a good price that is.

[tawdry tree]

In hand, Sticky Rices are quite a bit louder. A bit less so than Raws but still.

[sacred elm]

are people still buying sticky rices

[tawdry tree]

I haven’t tried hand lubing them though.

[tawdry tree]

They’re not bad.

Also the only switches you can use plateless for HE.

[noble mason]

i mean i dont mind them louder just as long as they have a deeper sound

[sacred elm]

Worse option than at least 6 switches

[tawdry tree]

Louder and higher pitched.*

[tawdry tree]

Have you tried them?

[sacred elm]

No, I am only trying good switches box stem which has worse wobble than normal switches are trash sorry

[harsh dove]

I actually wanted to try Sticky Rices with the clip in feet to do plateless like Tirade but I don't recall if he ever tried it

[noble mason]

the sticky rices arent very wobbly imo

i have them and i tried out the rice puddings from my cousin

rice puddings have more wobble than the sticky rices

[sacred elm]

now compare to raws

[tawdry tree]

It’s not an opinion, they’re more stable than Raws.

[tawdry tree]

I only know of Josh that did a plateless build with them

[harsh dove]

Did it work out?

[tawdry tree]

it was loud af though

[harsh dove]

Oh lol

[tawdry tree]

yeah

lemme see if I can find

[noble mason]

i dont have the raws and im sure they're good but the stem wobble on the sticky rices arent bad by any means

[harsh dove]

I love the description on Milktooth for them lol

[glacial wind]

you guys are talking about different things. He's not saying it's bad, just that it's bad in comparison to good box stems

they're very mediocre stability for a box stem and beaten by basically all of the more popular box stems and some non box stems

[tawdry tree]

#🔧│keyboard_modding message oh yeah and this crazy shit lmao

drilling holes in sticky rices

casual switch torture

😭

[harsh dove]

I think I remember that

Yeah I don't remember them being great

[tawdry tree]

@kind helm where is your sound test of the plateless build you did?

[tawdry tree]

they are pretty up there and initial wobble ain’t that bad either.

[noble mason]

whatre some good box stems that arent the TTC switches

[sacred elm]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/984799440072220692/1325503162039275541/image.png?ex=67bbf744&is=67baa5c4&hm=43e3732f45e64a4ce0d98e056b020a749dfcbda3e0199c7399c0b76860ee46bb&

[noble mason]

eh well either way im pretty happy with these

[tawdry tree]

In hand, the pitch of the Sticky Rices is quite a bit higher. Not sure how well the phone mic picks it up though.

[kind helm]

GONE

[tawdry tree]

Odd, I don’t think V1’s wobble is any different from V2’s either. They look on par or slightly better than Gamings to me.

[kind helm]

idk maybe you can search up my mental breakdown in this chat

[tawdry tree]

DELETED?!

[kind helm]

should still be in the chat somewhere, but i deleted the file

[noble mason]

i asked someone about the sound and feel difference between the neo lavenders and the sticky rices and i was told that the sticky rices were quite a bit deeper so that's why i picked them

even if they are louder i dont really mind that

[kind helm]

i can try with v1 at some point

actually i have my wooting lying around somewhere i can do v1 if you wanna hear it, but v2 i ruined them 😦

[glacial wind]

they lose to pretty much all the current popular ones unfortunately when measured

[tawdry tree]

Neo Lavenders aren’t worth it anymore considering we have Skylines and Master/Magnetos now but I’d definitely give them a try if you’re chancing a deeper clack.

[sacred elm]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/984799440072220692/1316792058219991111/image.png?ex=67bbea6b&is=67ba98eb&hm=3c888344b80e9e50fcb5493a0a5d97ab09439bb6afa5f7f07d6015c0594c7c6f&

[tawdry tree]

Time for a josh investigation.

[glacial wind]

all the recent jade pro/gamings, ttc kom/uranus, raw etc all came out more stable than sticky rice

[tawdry tree]

I wonder why

[glacial wind]

they're not awful, but in comparison to any stable recent switches they're pretty meh

[tawdry tree]

Maybe they look more stable than they are at the bottom or something

[glacial wind]

honestly if a few youtubers didn't make videos saying 'these are the thock kings' or whatever, i think no one would have paid attention to them since they're just another mid range switch

[tawdry tree]

Going through pulling all of them out again is torture man, wouldn’t wanna put you through that. 😂

[noble mason]

i hate mikeytypes titles lol

they're so misleading

[tawdry tree]

You said what now?

😭

[glacial wind]

it's just entry level youtuber issue. You get into the headspace of 'I need this title to clickbait or no one will watch' when the real solution is just make better content that's actually engaging

[hard wraith]

Wait the ruby sounds pretty good

I got like 4 switches to test

[sacred elm]

Yea they sound like jade pros

[tawdry tree]

No different than Jade Pros though no?

[hard wraith]

I forgot how jade pro sounds like

Wait

[tawdry tree]

It’s as close to a recolor as can be.

[hard wraith]

Oh right

Yeah it sounds the same

I’m trippin

Whatever the green one is called sounds ass tho

[tawdry tree]

Jade Gaming recolor..

[glacial wind]

yeah none of the gateron gamings sound all that nice. They're stable but sound box chattery

[noble mason]

arent those the dragon switches or whatever

[tawdry tree]

Yeah

[hard wraith]

Why are geon raw so hard to pull out omg

Is it my plate or what

[noble mason]

what plate you got

[tawdry tree]

Switch design.

[hard wraith]

Pp plate

[noble mason]

damn it's the switches then

[tawdry tree]

Don’t pull from the diffuser side.

[noble mason]

pp should be pretty easy to pull out

[sacred elm]

Pull from south first

[hard wraith]

Yeah all of the switches I’m testing is really easy to pull out

[sacred elm]

Lekker v2s, raws and other hejin switches are pretty hard to pull

[tawdry tree]

Just bad switch design.

[noble mason]

i mean the tighter they are the more stable they are

[tawdry tree]

Nah it’s not about tightness even, just the side hooks and latches.

Tightness comes from the “lines(?)” on the bottom housing.

idk what the word for them is

[sacred elm]

No

[noble mason]

oki

[hard wraith]

I broke like 3 of the switches clips on my raws…

[tawdry tree]

Those.

[sacred elm]

3 is rookie number

[tawdry tree]

I did pretty much all

Same goes for the V1s though.

[sacred elm]

I broke like 20 in total after I pulled them two times on my 80he

Never using them again

[tawdry tree]

They’re easier to pull after the latches are slightly bent/broken.

[hard wraith]

I pulled out 4 of em…

[glacial wind]

need good switch remover. never broken any raw he here even though they are harder to remove on wooting plate

[tawdry tree]

It’s not really broken, and IDK how you can pull them without

it just happens

Switch design

I don’t think any switch puller can push the latch in far enough to “disengage” the little hooks.

The hooks bend and break off nearly every time.

[harsh dove]

I find the Wuque Puller to work better on RAWs than my TX Puller but they are still a struggle and I've tried them on multiple plates

Just in my personal experience out of all the switches I've tried, they are the hardest to remove

[hard wraith]

Idk magnetic switches are the hardest type of switch to pull out already and the raws are even harder to pull out

[harsh dove]

Switches like the Jade Pros, Lekkers, TTCs and Raeds all come out super easy for me with the TX Puller

Very little effort required

RAWs are like going to the Gym

Lots of effort required

[sacred elm]

raws are worst to pull, then lekkers

and other hejin switches

[hard wraith]

V1 or V2s? V1 ain’t that hard

[sacred elm]

v2

v1 arent hejin

[hard wraith]

Yeah I don’t have V2s that’s why

[glacial wind]

all my switch pullers are wuque pullers so that's probably why i didn't have issues lol

[sacred elm]

I need to get that puller

[harsh dove]

Yeah it works better on RAWs than the TX for me

[sacred elm]

probably will order next week with wuque wob keycaps

[harsh dove]

TX Puller grabs the diffuser too much

[sacred elm]

there will be sale on those keycaps

[harsh dove]

and you just end up ripping the diffuser out and breaking the clips

[sacred elm]

if anybody wants

[harsh dove]

TX Puller works great on everything else tho

just struggles with RAWs

[hard wraith]

That’s exactly what I did, and I’m like fuck it I ain’t pulling more out

[glacial wind]

i just have a bunch of wuque pullers because it's always preorder bonus for half their stuff lol

[hard wraith]

I only need 4 to test other switch so it really ain’t a problem

[tawdry tree]

I don’t even touch the diffuser when puller Raws, there’s nothing to hold on to for the puller.

[harsh dove]

Have to touch the diffuser when your clips are broken lol

[scarlet kindle]

Chat why doesn’t wooting sell lube syringes? It’s mostly impossible to get em where I live unless I wanna import em and pay a hefty import tax

[tawdry tree]

You can’t disengage any latch really on the old Gaterons and Hejin, just terrible switch design.

[glacial wind]

you can't buy syringe off aliexpress?

[harsh dove]

Idk I'm not tryna shit on RAWs but they are the hardest to pull for me and I've tried like 15+ different HE switches and multiple plates with different pullers

[hard wraith]

I think it’s in the banned list or something

[sacred elm]

Just get 205g0 and fill some random syringe with it

[noble mason]

i dont think you need syringes no? ig it just makes it where you dont have to take out the stabs but that's better than spending more money

[tawdry tree]

TTC does it well with the hooks being on the freaking latch itself rather than below the latch.

[harsh dove]

Yeah TTCs come out like butter

super easy

[hard wraith]

Yeah, no idea why other just don’t do this

[harsh dove]

TX puller doesn't' struggle with those even with their diffuser design

[tawdry tree]

Raws have both hooks on the side and hooks below the latch that a puller can’t disengage.

[glacial wind]

ttc honestly the best designed switch from the ones i've used

the click on open and close is so satisfying

[tawdry tree]

I blame Gateron still though, Hejin copied them. 😭

[tawdry tree]

Yeah more thought went into them.

[sacred elm]

pulling jades, jade pros was easy

lekker v1s too

I only had issues with hejin switches

[tawdry tree]

Jade Pros are better designed than Jades

slightly

all of them have the side hooks which is unnecessary af

[steel ibex]

He bought his entire keyboard a year ago around July

[sacred elm]

Yea but jades were still very easy to pull

[tawdry tree]

Eh

I wouldn’t say so, you couldn’t really use the light window as too much force on it bends it.

With the V1s and Jades.

[hard wraith]

Jades are pretty easy no?

[tawdry tree]

TTCs are easy.

Jade Pros easier.

Jade Ruby as easy as TTC

prob easier

actually

[sacred elm]

Yeah, idk. Lekker v1s, regular jades, jade pros were very easy to pull on both 60he and 80he for me

[tawdry tree]

Sticky Rices are max difficulty 😭

pulling the top housing off before the bottom housing comes out 💀

[harsh dove]

I remember doing this lol

I have a few switches with bent light windows

[tawdry tree]

Yeah

Outemus had even weaker windows

[tawdry tree]

[sacred elm]

???

💀 💀 💀 💀

[tawdry tree]

that’s without a fucking plate, with a plate they just don’t come out at all.

😭

definition of locked in

[harsh dove]

How do you guys think lube will be on Duhuks?

[sacred elm]

same as raws?

[tawdry tree]

Better than on Raws, I doubt there will be any stickiness when initially pressing them cause of the stem design.

the top out stickiness on Raws that feels kinda like friction but is actually because of lube..*

[harsh dove]

Yeah, I notice you and Turing have said that about RAWs being sticky, I personally haven’t noticed that, but I also hand lubed my RAWs after using them stock for about a month give or take

[sacred elm]

I noticed that too, when you rest your fingers on raws you can feel the stickiness

It gets better after some time of use tho

[glacial wind]

That’s the holiness of the raws sucking out the evil inside of you

a cleansing

As you use it more you have less to cleanse

[sacred elm]

I stopped using them in a week

They are benched

[chilly mural]

Misleading title genuinely makes me doesn't want to watch their vid anymore

[tawdry tree]

Yeah, it’s not really noticeable during regular use at all. If you’re pressing slowly it can be noticeable but just wiping the lube off of the top of the rails and top housing resolved it completely.

[quasi hinge]

Now we swim in POM 🙏

[quasi hinge]

I didnt notice it that much until is was pointed out then I couldn't stop noticing it

[quasi hinge]

I would notice it ever so slightly when kneeling and crawling in game and was making small or slow moves around. Then Pom became my salvation

[fluid ravine]

These clips piss me tf off at times ngl

Esp on RAWS

[lilac edge]

Anyone know why the shift stays a little bit longer down?

I tried replacing the switch

[tawdry tree]

If stabs and plate are stock, it might be because of those pads.

[tawdry tree]

Yeah it ain’t great. Raw HE V2s when?

👀

[dapper kernel]

Any new amazing switches or it’s still geon raws and jades meta?

[sacred elm]

ttc pom

[calm pulsar]

they should have called it ttc pog

[sacred elm]

[dapper kernel]

But ttc lube seems so bad

[sacred elm]

lube

[glacial wind]

it's a positive, because you get hours of fun k drama watching time

[dapper kernel]

I guess i can still wait not going to lube it myself

[sacred elm]

ttc switches bring you closer to god

[dapper kernel]

I can wait for god

[sacred elm]

What do you have now

[dapper kernel]

Jades wobble ass shit but too lazy to swap it

[sacred elm]

ah, then just get raws or jade pros

[tall rain]

am i weird for preferring newly lubed switches compared to heavily used switches that have been lubed but the lube falls off over use i guess? especially with games where i tap the same keys repetitively such as osu feel like the lube is gone or sumn

[dapper kernel]

lube just get spread out more evenly and becomes thinner, dont really "go away" unless its like years of usage

so just re-lube it if u dislike the feeling

[quasi hinge]

Ttc poms have basically no wobble

Worth lubing, these could be end game for some people for a while, including me

[dapper kernel]

i swore to myself to never lube again, not really a fan of lubing switches. will wait for them to improve on their factory lube, knowing its china proly wont take too long either

[chilly mural]

geon raw and ttc pom sounds soo similar on Wooting's soundtest

On PCR ABS at least

[quasi hinge]

Ttc pom vs raw on CF plate in zinc (w/ some milling on the case)

[chilly mural]

mmm, the first one sounds nice.

[tall rain]

the sound will vary on a keyboard if the switches are far apart, if they are next to each other on the keyboard that would be a fair comparison

not saying they arent next to each other but just asking for clarification

[quasi hinge]

Pom sir

[chilly mural]

Fuwee, the POM, the material that help produce that sound. Soo majestic

[tall rain]

that's fair, pom sounds a lot better imo

[quasi hinge]

However it is a carbon fiber plate

[chilly mural]

imagine ttc POM, on POM keycaps, with POM plate

[quasi hinge]

Do they make pom plates for the 80he?

I like the firmness for gaming though personally

[chilly mural]

On Keyboard FUn Store it has one, but only for plate mounted stab

[quasi hinge]

I saw someone the other day said they were going to make a custom pom plate for the 80he with a special company but that is bespoke

[chilly mural]

mmm
