good decision
how much layers of tape does the wooting 80he have on it already? is it just one?
oh you mean for the sound test nvm
and the wobble is soooo much better than og jades 
i still have 70 jades from when i accidentally ordered them instead of the pros
i should like
do something with them
sprinkle them onto the sidewalk maybe
still need to get pom plate to replace my steel plate tho
really going for pom?
what you not like about the steel?
its quite loud but its starting to grow on me....
with the ti's, its like a loud poppy clack and im kinda really liking it
could get cf plate and fully embrace it....
idk if ur were talking abt my soundtest
yeee i got it in like a week, maybe even less?
but this isnt a 80he
but i only had pc before so idk how steel or pom would compare
might try and record a sound test with the ti's
Nah in general
my setup for sound tests is slightly scuffed, less so than it used to be though
but man the loud poppy clack grows on me the more i type......
@sacred elm i love you for sending me the keybay link
oh yeah idk
what are the specs on the sound test anyway it sounds good
ngl personally i dont like it
but its an mx build
not he
(its my sis kb)
oh
One thing I am noticing about the astrolinks is that the railing that guides the stem in the bottom housing, has a slight inward curve which causes some friction. just finished lubing them so they're fine for now, but I foresee them reverting after some of the lube breaks in.
keys aren't getting stuck or anything so it's nothing like the jade maxes
im just now realizing how much worse og jades were for stem wobble, damn ive been missing out
but yea, idk if it's by design
this shits so stable
what're you using now @marsh saffron
ti he
hell ya
they feel and sound so good
agreed, what plate are you on?
steel rn
but im gonna change that eventually
cant decide what plate material i wanna swap to yet though
i didn't like em on my PC plate, but the fr4 plate did wonders
all of this subjective of course
cf, fr4, or pom
cf >
they seem nice but i like black knights more, just in what I've heard on yt, when I get mine imma see
ill have to see how the loud poppy clack grows on me over the next bit to decide
alu betterest
betterbestieiest
in terms of loudness, cf would be louder than fr4, while fr4 is louder than pom. correct?
yeah
@marsh saffron fwiw in my personal exp the owlabs sounded too quiet and dull in my POM plate
how would alu compare to these 3?
and PC
for me it was very marginal going from pc to cf, it made more of a difference in stiffness than sound
in between cf and fr4
at first i was wanting this but man idk, the loudness is kinda growing on me
and personally my fav
hmmmm
if its within ur budget/time i'd say just try it out!
- i can get alu plate from toronto keyb man iirc so that'd save on import fees
i am broke lol
oh lol
not gonna give u financial advice but i hope you find a medium that allows you to experiment
gonna see how the loudness grows on me and decide in a month or two probably
im just jobless rn
once i get another job ill experiment
ur still using the steel plate from prebuilt 60he?
are you US based?
i had black pc, but went back to steel because its white yeah
canada
ooo i c
i might rebuild with my pc plate just to see if i like them quieter
can help me decide between pom/ fr4, alu, or cf
oh yeah imo alu is like steel but simply better
but the sound they making rn on steel is kinda hot
i really think the volume when swapping plates is marginal and it's more down to your case and foam
if alu is between fr4 and cf i may go with that yeah
because cf would be loud asf prob
- i can get alu plate locally
yeah i use tofu redux w tofu foam + pcb sandwich foam
yeah to me fr4 sounds a lil thin and dead
gummy oring mount but still traymount case so it prob doesnt do too much
and cf is bright but doesnt sound as natural as alu
natural?
idk cf just doesnt sound as good to me as alu most of the time
yeah that's fine
it varies bc i'm pretty sure the resin in the actual weave is what's most important
oh damn, nice. I guess US shipped first, havenāt heard of anyone else who got them already
yeah and remember
lekker v1 > jade pros
i'm not remembering that
i think ur just not accepting the hard truth
hard propaganda
idk, i have the same configuration, but when i switched from PC to fr4, the volume and timbre of the sound did change pretty significantly
v2 implies v1 had a problem. there's no jade pro v2. checkmate.
same config as in all the foams and stuff are the same, but the plate was swapped
interesting
we could also just have varying anecdotal evidence though
so not ruling your statement out
i swapped polycarbonate to cf and the profile slightly changed, less so than the stiffness
definitely didn't like the slight softness of the pc
i remember getting a stock 60he+ and pressing on it for the first time
felt like i was pressing into a sponge
i liked that feeling at first, but i now enjoy rigidity accompanied by the volume increase
so lekker v2 is also better than jade pro
no longer a pc plate enjoyer
pro is for the cool kids. nothing called pro has ever been bad.
ever heard of the superlight 1/2
plus jade is a cool gem. it's not coal pro. iron pro. JADE pro.
hope u get yours soon!
Not exactly enjoying the feel if i'mma be real lol
at least compared to my owlabs
yo i just bought a 80he module and wanna know if anyone knows some good keycaps for the keyboard
āHMX will save us!ā
you can hear and feel the friction, post-lubing too
god the more i type the more i love the sound of the tee hees
unikey is edging me with my ti he delivery status

They are so so so nice
og jades š«”
W my build it's like a loud poppy clack, and I'm falling in love with it
did u see my "creamy thock" build
u are hyping this a lot, imma need a sound test
nah
ill try and record one after i smoke
enjoy da smoke fam
no promises on it being a good sound test though my setup is NOT good for them
it sounds bad
beggars can't be choosers so i won't complain
i mean mid
what was the build
its my sis' aula a75
i dont need to say what switches
how about the factory lubing? same? imma buy those herz now š®
@sacred elm
can kinda hear my little brothers in the background
tofu redux, steel plate, pbtfans xray
need to quiet down my spacebar a tad for my liking, but the rest of the keys sound great
they are higher pitched and a tad louder than my jades (jades were hand lubed i didnt touch my ti's)
fireee
It's great. Same as the TI's
would you still recommend bag lubing springs?
I'm happy as is
Any suggest mod for the he 80? Also need keycap rcm for the white case ( pref blue/white/ pink)
No suggested mods as it's usually great the way it comes. Mods are if you want to change something. As for keycaps in that color choice, look up GMK Bento
@kind helm dont give up hope yet
Looks like someone might be starting to capitulateā¦
its over
If this is true, watch the whole Chinese nation pour resources into end to end chip production like their own manhattan project, then undercut intel and amd
Which they are doing already if what I read is correct
All Iāve learnt from current us gov is all of them are incompetent and seem to have no idea what any policies will actually do until it ruins something
Complete flip flop
then they backtrack later when it turns out their entire plan was dumb lol
Even if they backtrack what did his actions show the rest of the world and to the us as a custodian / trading partner, IMO, damage has been done and cannot be reversed. Id be surprised if we didnt enter a new normal
Itās a bit concerning that their secretary of education doesnāt know what AI is and called it A-1 in her interview
some things that people in power in US say are so ridiculous that I'm starting to think they just keep people entertained intentionally
Fr4 is tightest for fluxies, interesting development š¹
heumm
ttc pom's or owlab ti
i like the sound of owlab's tho
but pom might be the way
whoever made this,
u're 100% payed by ttc
Dont forget this jewel
as in they are tight in the plate?
Nah, they were meming back and forth between POMs and Fluxes

nah mate, flux are better
u get a feature where the legs are flying
They have better stability allegedly
"ah i wonder what switches i should get!"
The ever present shafie: "fluxes best."
But ironically the POM snakes have better Flux lol
since when, u buy a $2 switch and get a awesome feature
he got payed by ws for sure
raeds clear
HAHAHHAHAHA
nah mate, gateron milky yellow clears everything 
the OG mech switch
the king of budget switch
Honestly got a set needing some film and lube
until i have to relube 240+ switches
Gateron Yellows
They're the cheap switch to get tbh
the best plan ive come up with should be getting custom gateron hes and make them neon marker yellow in order to be banned from all storefronts for your tastes
why gateron not making milky yellow for HE š¦
it will be a good switch
or maybe oil kings HE
rather than f sakura's
i should work at gateron
and make good colorways
bring back different weight spring = different stem colors
yellow = light, black = heavy
red = medium
bruh, i should make my own switches huh

Iāve found from the plates Iāve tested (alu, fr4, cf, pc briefly) that fr4 has least wobble from my feel test and overall feels more firm
it will not be even close to their MX counterparts, only the name
ye, it's okay
they should make it "mech colorway"
at least bring the colors back, i miss old mech switches
ah ic, well it more depends on the tolerances of the plates and not material itself
plates of the same material from diff manufacturers can be different in this aspect
yepp
so u can't say it's the materials, it's more of the plate tolerance
full matte black HE switch
THAT'S LOVELY TO HAVE
like nowadays, switches colors are purple, beige, etc.
i miss the old mech switches color
Made of pom
nah we need new stuff
if you gonna hand lube then sure go for poms
actually i never recommend them lol
not gonna recommend 200$ switches, even if they are good
Sorry I have been busy - also love the pc koalakorn 
the fluxes? yeah
Shafie is being ironic with the posts, but 100% thereās people that are going to read it and think he really loves them lol
In jokes donāt really translate that well to new folks passing through
he does love them though, or else how would someone cope with spending 200 on switchesš¹
The legs breaking off is a big concern. I'll be curious if others experience the same.
Yeah the legs thing is not great, especially for the price
im not even joking lol, i just post the meme with them and thats it
if we're talking about the legs breaking off the owlabs.. yea most of mine have broken off lol
the plastic is so soft
If it was a random person who never mods I wouldnāt put much thought into it, but because it was cam who isnāt new to modding itās a bit scuffed if heās breaking legs
Seems like quite a serious design flaw if you canāt remove them without breaking some
thought it was me at first, but after trying different strengths + switch pullers, i realized it was the material of the switch itself
never ever happened w/any of my other switches
i'd been thru like 10+ sets, w/many reinstallations too
Talking about the fluxes. I've had no issues with the TI's
thats awk lol
are they easy to pull
damn maybe my batch is just very soft?
is it okay to buy the frog mini leggera T?
i could bend the legs with my bare hands, not using a lot of strength either
legs dont really matter
do we have a sound test of fluxes
this is pom plate tho
soundtests pls
i'll try record rn
because i'm not seeing myself to use gummy for now, and i have a lot spare of gh60 cases that i can use...
it's not possible for me to cut the type c port of my venom rn
it has this high pitched noise cause of what i presume to be a audio thing i'm fucking up
gonna give it one more shot
what switches did he use?
wuque flux
ty
Switch stuff can be finicky to record because type of mic and distance can completely change the sound lol
I had a ton of legs broken on raws, didnt matter in the end to be honest, since I used alu and fr4, but yeah feels kinda bad to lose material on a $2 switch
yea i had it before, but i got a new audio interface that i didn't tinker with as far as OBS goes
unforch
Yeah I feel if itās a .50 cent switch I wouldnāt feel too bad if one or two break
But if my $2 switches break Iād be sad knowing every 2 switches is a bubble tea
s
@distant crag
not the best recording lol
doesn't sound anything like how i hear it irl
hopefully you can kinda make out the sound
deeper sound compared to the tee hees?
yea, but a lot more plasticy?
i wouldn't consider it "thocky" by any means
to me, in my configuration, they sound like skyline everglides
sounds like ice cubes in a glass cup being swirled lol
yea on the top-out
that's the best way i can put it
once i get this recording down w/my new audio set up, i'll hopefully deliver a better recording
each broken switch leg is one tapioca ball
personally like the sound and feel of the owlabs on it, but i'm forcing myself to use these for at least a week since they literally just came in the mail today lol
fr4 plate, poron plate foam, poron case foam, tofu 60 acrylic
I see. I think i'll pass on the astrolinks. I was hoping they're gonna be new best since it is HMX hehe
if u were wondering
gotcha
i feel it, i'm just looking for new sounds at this point lol, they're all functionally the same to me. i'm fine as long as i don't regress to jades and raws lol
raws felt good for like a week
then they felt ticky and wobbly
owlabs prob my fav so far
@distant crag where are u located? maybe i could send u some spares of my astrolinks
š¤
that's nice of you. but im from PH. looking right now for a deeper sounding switch, my wife is getting annoyed by the 'clack' of my owlabs š¤£
aw shit
which plate do you use
Who are top 5-10 switch masters here?
Sno
Cam
Marble father
Arcwyn
Anyone else im missing?
mj
Lol
alu plate w/ silicon sandwich
try softer plate
what y'all think
alu is loud
PC plate has been hella quiet for me w/owlabs
who
I think heās screwed regardless unless he moves to quiet switches
gateron orange ks20s if u want it to sound like a membrane keyboard lmfao
your bestie! lol
š
do not take this suggestion seriously btw they sound like shit but they are quiet
Wife/gf etc do not care if the sound is a fraction deeper clack etc. they just want quiet lol
I fell off tbf, havent used any of the recent good ones, ti he, lumia herz or fluxes
my duhuks are on sale rn though
If heās getting the spouse aggro only real solution is probably getting some true silent switches
yea was boutta say deeper=/=quieter
will try to find softer plate for now. but I really like the typing feel of owlabs. my wife just dont want 'clacky' kb sound. she's pissed when i replaced my jade pros lol
What if sheās testing you
She wants to see if youāll stand up to her. Install carbon fiber plate and ttc poms
thats what you didš
Thatās why I have such a great spousal relationship
the carbon fiber plate was the trick
she liked this more 𤣠Akko MOD007B HE with akko cream yellows lol
used it for a day. then disposed it.
Couples therapists HATE this man! SAVE your relationship with this SIMPLE TRICK....
Hrm @ionic breach this guy is trying to convince me to pay $150 more to buy his camera with the kit lens included. Iām pretty sure itās the same lens as yours
my lens better
Thatās true. Your 24-70 gm ii lens is much superior

Donāt worry, I also saw the 16mm f1.8 g lens is back in stock today too. So youāll be covered for the wide focal length as well
gajillion won to get better pictures

worth it
jokes aside, it is, I actually want to invest in a proper, at least somewhat decent camera
cause webcam/iphone recordings of me playing guitar for YT look so ass
just keep in mind that raeds clear
facts
we ball
I think I need a spacer or something
alright, definitely less physical wobble than poms and cleaner sound
louder than poms
I like this, but price is poop
with poms you physically feel stem movement left to right, you dont feel that with fluxes
Do we need the daughter board?
not if you have the wooting one since if you only bought the pcb of the 80he it does not come with the daughter board
Itās very worth to buy the $10 plastic case add when you buy the module honestly
Since it comes with both the daughter board and a cable
How can I imrpove the sound of my woothing 60he to make it sound more like thockier
honestly not a ton of highly recommended things specifically for thock. That sound profile is a bit hard to get in HE keyboards, but there are things you can do/swap to get a more clear, pleasing sound if that's your goal
would there be a great difference if i were to remove the sticker thing on the back of the 80he and actually tape modded it?
it's kind of a side grade. Just changes the sound a bit but whether you prefer it or not is going to be a question mark
i don't like tape mod for some switches, makes them sound worse, but it's just your preference for what type of sound you want
Not rlly apart from the high frequencies depends on the switch
Do anyone of you (in germany) have the KDBFans GT-80?
So worth it?
i pulled one and it was enough for me š legs were fine tho
Flux roulette
can anybody send me a link on a sound diffenece between the owlabs ti he and poms or flux?
There isnāt one for those specific in one test
and what plate
I think they can sound different depending on the plate too
anything really aslong as everthing else is the same just purely the difference between the two switches
drunkdeer switch
mmm, wonder how much it'll be
or it'll be exclusive to their board
the red one is about 10 rmb each

soo many clack
hrm is it a good or bad sign if the other trades for a person selling a high end camera are all sexy kpop pillow cases and cards
Raeds better
as long as latter is clean I guess
anybody have a gt-80 here? could i reuse the case foam of the 80he on the gt-80?
yes, you can use stock 80he foam in gt80
you could always cut the foam if you need
foam is just foam, you can use it however you want as long as there is room for it
yea you can cut it and it will be ok
where can I sell a mech kb? /r/mechmarket is no-go
Youāre from the EU right?
might be some local fb keyboard groups
Thereās a Discord specifically for the EU.
mechmarket has a Discord as well if Reddit is an issue.
Iād send it to you but you have me blocked for whatever reason. 
š
Or thereās an issue with Disc**


Aligner be catching beef with everybody
shitās falling in my hands atp
lmao
To give you credit, the switch that will make you deaf is FR4 fluxies hehe
Varedis i got my tee hees
#š§ākeyboard_modding message
Its so loud in all the right ways
Return of the RAWs type shii
im using typewriter rn
I think I'm gonna get alu plate for them
You get your fluxes or not yet?
yes
I can hear my flux thru my IEMs lmao
Nice
Thatās how you know itās good
letās see how much u fw it in a couple weeks when youāre deaf
šÆšÆ
nah its fine, i used poms before
fluxes are a bit louder
going from louder to loudest is insane
What??
loud maxxing
wobble maxxing
Imagine FR4 being louder than CF with fluxies
š„š„
Wilted flamingo type shii
not using that shii anymore
Is mark sending flower NSFW material
gonna post this instead smh
Is this the leak you promised Shafie
canāt say Iām surprised
āMy plant love lifeā new free game you can play on wootility courtesy of Mark
Relative to the rest of that flower scene, the gif I posted was extremely SWF 
Idk mark, the way it was going..
Its just edging
oh
they made a new discord pack for your shafie
you can even get it with a profile border
i feel you need to buy this to fully commit to the joke
Just 7000 Ws and it's yours 

maybe you have a skill issue
Cop
i may need to buy one of these nameplate banner things though
those actually seem kind of nice
get this too
They only take a dollar off for paying for nitro
Discord greedy as hell now
looks nice
Well my nitro is cheap
Iād cop cityscape dayum
wait until discord sells cases and keys to open limited edition nameplates
valve is really innovative
does anyone know where to get decent dampening desk kb mats in the uk to fit 60%/60he? i can only find glorious 65% size pad
keebmat
isnāt that only usa based?
oh it has to be sold within the uk as well? I believe keebmat is china but they ship worldwide
if it's UK only specifically then that will be hard
ah gotcha! iām cool with waiting i guess
oh i didn't even realize keebmat made a mat specifically for 80he lol
huh š³
yeah they're quite a nice option for a cheap keyboard mat
your voice matters
Worth it?
Whatās the sound profile 
I have one for my office keeb
keebmat used to hang out in there for a while
full PA12 housing 
Got some silent lynx HE to try out since I want a silent switch. Tldr is they seem to work fine in my 80he, are pretty silent, but are overpriced glorious slop so ymmv.
Idk if you still cared for this discussion, but during my studies I found references pointing to European equipment for some studies
These would be the equivalent of what we have here but for the EU/UK (if youāve ever seen these or are curious) for the pumps we were talking about: https://vygon.co.uk/product/vascular-access/elastomeric-pumps/accufuser/
the description also mentions out patient usage similar or exactly like how I was talking about it.
(sorry if this is off topic)
What switches are those
mx blue clones
an old glorious keyboard from 2022
Those are wild bois
Soo nostalgic, my first mech keyboard also have cheap blue clone
Holy thock
the best switches fr
Idk why my mind defaults to this, but they sound like you got Frosted Flakes in there š
My first mech was a 2014 razer blackwidow, has the all so silent green switches

rattling stabs with blue clones is the best combo fr
nice build
Morning slackers
when i started gaming on pc in 2021 i had some cheap logitech mouse keyboard combo
then like a year later my brother broke them while raging on Fortnite so after some recommendations by a friend i bought some āgoodā peripherals (glorious model o and this keyboard)
the spacebar sounds like stepping on leaves repeatedly but 10x worse and metallic and it hurts the ear to listen to
Morning marble pops š¹
I read 2021 as 2012
mmm
nahh

Imagine gaming in 2012

Hello people, my first time buying a keyboard that I can mod and had some silly questions would this be the right place to ask them
Magic Mouse ā> Logitech mx master
yes
No
Jk yes

Ask away Mr bird 
Varedis our resident joker
why my magic mouse broke i got some cheap dollar store brand mouse š„š„
Probably similar quality
Someoneās gotta troll in place of *J

The joker role is now my mantle to carry until someone else takes it hehe
Ok mouse pad enjoyers, suggest a slow/control glass pad. Ive been told they exist and I think Im done with cloth for a while.
idk tbh im enjoying mousepad endgame currently
could get a sp004 tho
Not a glass pad connoisseur but Hana is a good starting spot (might be a little faster than youāre used to but itās marketed as a control glass pad)
i'll be paying attention to this. I am too tired of cloth
It does have āØart⨠on it
So i bought the geon raw hes for my 80he I really love the sound of them, also the less stem wobble is a big plus, now I was thinking of making the voice creamy
I did some research and found tape mod can make the sound pop make it a little deep basically what enthusiasts call the thocky sound which I kinda want since the geons have a little high pitch so it can act as a low pass filter and then to suppress the noise a little so its more creamy I was thinking of putting Siless or what they call the automotive dampening foam
Would you guys see this working and making it a little creamy?
hana š
ahh, fellow sp004 enjoyer
it's nice as an everyday mousepad
Keyword
Tape mod
Get a 3rd party case
Hana from glsswrks
Drift sora sp004
Creamy isnt a sound you can replicate long term for HE, if you want more thock you can add a 4-6 layer tape mod (keep in mind 80HE pet film already is a partial tape mod)
Sir I was getting the zinc case itās quite expensive already lol
Gamesense radar
@tropic urchin I see, will keep in mind
I stand by hana or radar or yuki and drift sora
iāve been using glass for a year now and i got so used to it
the only thing that bothers me is that sometimes especially after im gaming for a while my arm get stuck on it tho its better than when i first got it
my arm would get stuck on it after just like 5 minutes of use
Though I will say, look into duhuks (they have a silent top to them and are an improvement over raws)
U and i are literally
Hana enjoyers
Maybe itās up your alley
I legit love my hana too much
Will do sir š«”
you didnt even remember you had it bro š
isnt glass pads fast?
yea
Any thoughts on the Superglide v2?
any suggestions for control mouse pads?
Thats what I thought but a friend of mine told me there are some control ones
new skates acquired
there are balanced glasspads but theyre still faster than most speed cloth pads, you can try this, its very cheap but people really like it
Get yuki aim 2.0 or hana, sp004 glsswtks
Game sense radar wotks
Works*
The radar is better
In the control field
Trust
Type99/Zero pads from artisan but might have trouble with no Canadian etailer
But it also wrks
Is there an option between cloth and glass? Like a hybrid surface that wont get linted/dusted up
Where my Kazemi pad š„
logitech g640 the goat fr first mousepad i got from best buy lol
Glass is mostly ok as it is, a hybrid wld be
Artisan raiden
Or which pad that shf uses
i think artisan had that, it was called shidenkai but they discontinued it
Cuz its glass coated
I tot the raiden was glass coated?
no
Raiden is full cloth
i want to get a zero mid in black
or a raiden
Shidenkai was their glass cloth pad
O i c
But was discontinued due to QC or inconsistencies iirc
Ok maybe Ill just go back to a rough surface cloth pad instead of a smooth surface one for now
Sp004 is rough
Without the arm sleeve
After going to Raiden, rough pads are so hard to use š„
New kazemi pad š„š„š„š„
ty
š„š„
ahh hell no
cat dongle goes hard
try that glasspad i sent earlier
the cat jorkin it like me after seeing the pad
ayoo
nvm, us is cooked
they dont ship there because of tariffs
i dont know about crunch, but i maximized clack
flux moment
which pads have you used or recommend?
Otsu (mid), raiden (mid/soft) for me from artisan
3 2 1 raiden
minecraft on mac with a magic mouse on one if these in 2011 was peak fr
I like faster pads, but I have come to enjoy raiden soft a bunch
Need me a Raiden mid
are you a high sens player or low
Slightly slower than mid, but has a nice texture and control
oh shit
I want fast asf but slightly more control than my glass
i use 800 dpi
iāve used the pulsar superglide v1 the razer strider and the razer atlas tho i returned it because it was a bit too small
Dpi means nothing without knowing in game sens
Shouldnāt matter too much imo
I can play 5000 dpi but still be on 80cm/360
I pair it with obsidian skates which is what Iāve found works best for me
Cm/360 best sens metric
Fast pad with slower skates
Need a Raiden mid with jades
damn i play mostly around 40cm/360 tho i donāt play tac fps
i have tiger ice skates on my mice right now
I used to main 27cm
When I actually had mouse control
rip
Shafie mains Raiden and tigers, too fast for me but he can give you more advice š¹
My aim has sucked since I screwed my wrists and stopped playing kbm
idk if i would want all that speed
what mouse did you have before your beastx
@tulip rapids if you donāt know what you want, Zero is a good starting point
Lamzu Atlantis mini
oh
Still use it but beastx mini is main
people really like artisan key83, its their new pad
ty when i buy some from japan later this year i'll probaby buy a couple of them
not fast, not slow
If your getting multiple try Raiden soft and zero mid/soft
Cop a zero, key83 and raiden and give em a whirl
people still sell glsswrks hana in japan, get me one š„
smh
You wonāt find your perfect pad first try but buying a couple helps
iāve tried everything from the g502 xm1 viper v2 pro and v3 pro deathadder v2 pro and v3 pro gpx 1 and 2 glorious model o model d and now main x2 crazylight
I need to clean the vodka out of my zero
@tulip rapids +1
right now i use a basic razer cloth mousepad thats $40 so im hoping these artisan pads make a huge difference
Oh def
doesnt alcohol ruin the pad
or nah
@tulip rapids you could try the lgg saturn pro
I was using a hyperx $40 pad and just using an otsu was a crazy difference
Its only 40% so probably not
Its definitely got slow spots where I spilt it (half the padš)
I haven't used too too many different mice
Lots of older razer stuff
Gpx 1, Atlantis mini og, 4k, and the full size 4k model, and now beastx mini
Beastx max is next
thank you everyone for your advice i appreciate you all
. Ima go get some breakfast
i spilled my protein shake on my glass pad and just cleaned it with a paper towel šæ
have a good morning
Love cleaning glass pads
glasspad ftw... until you broke it
*drop
Instead of waiting 3 days for it to dry like my zero, it takes 2 seconds with paper towel
nah still going strong for a year
my mic arm broke yesterday and my heavy ass blue yeti fell on and nothing happened
fr
Yall glass pad enthusiasts make me want a kazemi š„š„š„
I use superglide pad
damn
The normal one, not the ugly ass supreme logo wannabe
v1 or v2?
im waiting for snos glasspad with korean models
is the logo red or white
yeah its a v1
His Korean model is a Sony FE 70 200mm F2.8
i want to get a sp004
I'm not buying another glass pad
Really like surface on mine + pointless to waste money on another when this one will outlast my wrists life span
glsswrks polarity clears
im waiting until i scratch or break mine
I need to get better mouse control so I can use glass again
im not even that careful with it honestly i put cups key phone water bottles on it and the surface is still scratch free lol
I take decent care of mine but same
I still put shit on it just gently
And don't move it around
i do wipe it down with windex twice a week
I have ac/fan going a lot so dust gets kicked up over time
moving the mouse on it is like driving a car over a pothole
thatās the only thing i hate about it honestly
Yeah any debris or dust feels like nails on a chalkboard
fr
yeh, now I have a habbit of running my hand across the glasspad to make sure there's almost nothing on it
oh yeah my mouse skates last like a week
@sacred elm iām about to buy this but what is plate mounted stab type? I have like the earliest wooting which I took out from there wooting case and put it in a new case not the 60he+ but just the regular 60he
sucks fr
I've been using my stock beastx skates for months on mine
same
Good skates are too expensive as a Canadian...
Shipping costs are annoying asfš
i use dot skates so its not as bad but when they wear out the glide is so scratchy
Was gonna order obsidians but they would've been 60$ after shipping and import fees
For 40 dotsš
old 60he (nonplus) uses plate mount stabilizers
so this is what I should get
yea
š
would you get carbon fiber or fr4
bro wtf im canadian and i paid 25
Rural Canada
damn
Even ali express is 25$ for shipping on them
Let alone xraypads charging me 45$ for shipping
i live in canadian france
I'm in rural bc
What are the best dots and what place is good to get them?
order from potent gaming
artisans?
xraypad from ali
Xraypads and ghostglides are good
Canadian?
If you use glass or want slow skates get obsidians
yeah
glass or cloth
I'll check them out thanks
What about artisans?
Get both so you have a few options you can play with (what I ended up doing)
do you use glass or cloth pad
what do you mean by stiff š„²
cloth
like typing experience ?
then artisan dots are a good option (although kinda pricey)
kinda depends on what speed you want
Softer plates you can bend in your hand, CF is almost completely rigid and you can feel the softness/stiffness of the plate when you type
what're good skates for tac fps? i'm hearing that something TOO smooth aren't the best since the stopping power isn't their strength
i use a control pad fwiw
and i have a hitscan hyperlight
39g
Obsidians are slow on cloth
if that means anything
Try those
ok lemme look em up, thx mane
ok so fr4
If you find obsidian is too slow, try tiger ice too
Theyāre kind of a hybrid between fast and slow skates
Yeah canāt go wrong with FR4
You want the red ones
Purple is obsidian air and those are slower
im i got some uhmwpe skates with my x2cl and theyre slow af
ok ye i just ordered a white one
Obsidian DIY Mouse Skates ā Universal 0.8mm PTFE Dots with diameter 6.5mm, offer better control and stop. which surface is hard and finely frosted texture, effectively increasing the friction of the surface, especially hardened PTFE increases the braking power of the skates, allowing better control and emergency stop.
okay noted
thanks y'all
whatever's good for cs and val
lol
obsidians will be too slow on control pad
i like the feeling of the stock skates i have on my hitscan hyperlight, which are PTFE iirc
i assume there's diff textures of PTFE?
or are they all p much the same
Iād order both obsidian and tiger ice dots, and then try both and see what you like on your pad that way you donāt try just 1 and not like it
might just do that
it's a shame that they're not reusable
well, hard to stick on after the initial removal
unless u guys got a lil lifehack for that
nahh they aint got nothing on these
they are so shit š
Pro airs is wild
fr
Even trying just obsidian air dots were too slow on Raiden
nah these are the pulsar versions lol
Same color too lol
don't fw me right now š
Truss obsidian + Tiger ices
obsidian pros just made out of glue or sum
if i had control pad id go for xraypad jades or tigerices
yessir will buy em
iāve used red obsidian ls on glass for a while
what FPS do u guys play
R6/tarkov atm
i got the purple ones today
i assume that y'all play fps cause i don't think other types of gamers are into skates like this
or OSU
unironically i think i can see those hardcore pvp minecrafters being into this too
now that i think about it
so my shit from ali i just bought will get cancelled š„²
do any of y'all use glass pads for tac fps?
not yet, maybe in future 
i always hear mixed reviews, but the ones that DO use it for tac fps are usually the movement players
bhoppers in cs, neon mains in val etc
but ill get balanced glasspad
that's what i've noticed at least
not fast
ooo, that sounds appealing
Kazemi š„š„
i just like the idea of glass mosuepads cause of the ease of cleaning
it will be still fast but its fine
are there such a thing as slow/control glass mousepads
that're maybe the same as an artisan or something similar
no clue about control glasspads
being able to close the browser with a masterful flick for those unsavory situation
but there are balanced pads
LOLLL
i foresee some hate, but what do you guys think of the glass ikea mousepad, i just remembered hearing about this a while back https://www.reddit.com/r/MousepadReview/comments/177c8pf/ikea_glass_mousepad/
Yes
I used to when I could aim
muthafugga are you from US
If it's cheap then pog asf
i wish i got into fps more as a kid
was gonna recommend this but nvm
40$ glass pad
Finally fairly priced glass pads????
yea
Not overpriced slabs of glass
apparently its very good
do they got shit without graphics
wallhack sp004 and glsswrks polarity
but theyre more expensive and faster
polarity will be out in may
Damn, my Osume order from last week is just now preparing for shipping
BTW really digging the sound of the TI's on aluminum plate. Glad someone convinced me to try that instead of FR4 yesterday
I think ill pickup an alu plate for mine
It's got a nice mellow clack to it. Not annoying or high pitched
Ti's on steel plate are sounding really nice
But ik it could be better with a diff plate
was saying yesterday how i've been enjoying the sound of Ti HEs on the fr4 plate
These caps are growing on me
need this in my life

Did you guys notice gateron using the phrase "full pom material, self-lubricating properties" for their sakura switch?
Doesnt ttc with their 3 dots of lube say the same shit š¤
I mean, at least we can expect gateron factory lube to be better
I built a wooting a while ago and just got the wooting ttc kom Pom. I a couple but itās impossible to overlube or get the same sound on each. Any advice and where to lube theses switches to make them sound the best
You can buy same kits on ali or taobao
You see those blue notches? I mainly lubed those and the stem walls on those side and bag lubed the springs with super lube and called it a day. You can do a little more and go onto the top housing and give it a little coat, but figure time spent wonāt be worth it
Oh ok thx, I did the bottom cylinder and sides
I guess that was too much
Wonāt the top housing take away the clacky sound?
Nah
Ok
Itāll break in and sound pretty similar to stock after a few days
Thx that helps a lot
Bet thx, I love da clack clack clack
Based clack enjoyer š¹
What case do u have?
Using GT80 currently
I have the plastic but might change some times
Had white zinc before
Which better?
