how to lube switches with toes and feet

calm pulsar

he won't be able to bear lubing with one hand which will speed it up

fluid ravine

All his years of calligraphy training has prepared him for this moment

fluid ravine

#

speaking about lubing, do you guys think cherry mx2a switches need lubing or are they fine from factory?

fluid ravine

anyone have recomendations for purple blue and perhaps grey keycaps

stray tiger
#

With Cherry moving to China I wonder if that will affect the quality of their switches and stabs? Hopefully it only makes them cheaper but I have a feeling other stuff will change as well

tropic urchin

#

because there are good injection molding fabs in china

#

but not all of them are created equal

#

if they get lucky and find a good fab, great. if not, it might take some more time to establish a supply chain.

i am rather surprised that the flex cuts haven't done anything too crazy to this plate. only thing is this board sounds like a fucking lightning bolt cracking wood with how loud it is now

its this build

fluid ravine
#

ah yh

tropic urchin
#

fluxies with white gold FR4 plate

fluid ravine
#

yo boi got shit mewmory

tropic urchin
#

its somehow as stiff as CF and louder than my other FR4 plate

tropic urchin
#

im genuinely baffled

#

it has 0 flex to it despite being FR4

fluid ravine
#

usually flex cut plates make the board sound thinner

fluid ravine
tropic urchin
#

I think the flex cuts are less for the sound and more aesthetic, either that or the flux is so loud that it compensates for that

fluid ravine
#

but if we talking about how curse those cuts are thouggh..........

ok gimme a few mins

tardy obsidian
#

where do i find my profile code in wootility pepe_cry i only see an import button

#

nvm nvm found it

fiery nexus
#

is there such thing as the fastest tactile or clicky switch?

fluid ravine
#

@night atlas @calm pulsar

fiery nexus
#

is there a such thing as hall effect tactile switches or nah

fiery nexus
#

thanks C:

fluid ravine
#

raeds basically? but no

#

theyre like a topre switch

#

if you know what that is

fiery nexus
#

nope searching it up now lol

fluid ravine
stray tiger
fluid ravine
#

plastic plates would go best with them tbh

#

pc as well i should say

fiery nexus
#

oh i see now frog

fluid ravine
#

personally if i were to run fluxes i would prob run them on alphas and have smth else for ther mods

#

the mods with them sound really thin, loud, and ofc plasticky, personal pref per say i like my spacebars strong and fuller or bright and thin

thorn zealot
fiery nexus
#

does anyone have a simple explanation of the difference between tactile and clicky im kinda lost

#

lol

polar girder
#

Same shit

#

But tactile could be more of a feel

#

While clicky is more exaggerated of a feel and sound

fluid ravine
fiery nexus
#

ahh

#

which one has that feeling more idc about sound lol

polar girder
#

Like clicky is tactile but tactile isn’t necessarily clicky

fiery nexus
#

i just never tried one i have only had linears so i wanna try

stray tiger
#

Tactical has a slight bump feel and clickly is a sound that may have a bump but usually just a wire or piece to make it click

fiery nexus
#

alright choosing tactile

#

any recommendations lol

polar girder
#

For HE?

fluid ravine
#

for mx?

polar girder
#

No lol

#

Raeds

#

Kind of

#

lol

fiery nexus
#

but i read on raeds and nah lol

fluid ravine
#

there arent any clicky nor tactile he switch out in the market rn

fiery nexus
#

ahh

fluid ravine
#

none been made

#

only got linears

fiery nexus
#

so like i cant put regular tactiles on my 80he right

#

duhh right lol

polar girder
#

Right lol

fiery nexus
#

i have no idea im noob

#

ahh okay

fluid ravine
#

you're fine

fiery nexus
#

so ima need to get a new keyboard

#

i dont mind ima probably main 80he just wanna try it

#

might use one and return it LMFAO

fluid ravine
#

if thats what you really desire lol

fluid ravine
fiery nexus
#

i was just looking back at when i started keyboard and realized ive only ever used linear

#

before my first linear i had a membrane keyboard which is basically just mushy. never a tactile switch

fluid ravine
#

i lowk like tactiles and linear
tactile not too much of a aggressive bump but noticeable
linear can be either really smooth or have that cherry scratch in it

#

my pref

#

:p

fiery nexus
#

nah i wanna feel like my finger just punched a bag and the bag punched back lol

fluid ravine
#

i hate clickies xd

fiery nexus
#

i might hate it

fluid ravine
fiery nexus
#

but for some reason i wanna feel a response and a bump to push me back up idrk why

#

yh frog

#

my microcenter only got linear keyboards out lol

fluid ravine
#

they have switch/keyboard testers on display for you to try the varities of linear, tactiloe, and clicky switches

fiery nexus
#

ahh

fluid ravine
#

ti get a feeling of what you like

fiery nexus
#

i didnt know that tho

fluid ravine
#

yup lol

fiery nexus
#

lol 50 minute drive to touch a switch noice

fluid ravine
#

LOL

#

GG

fiery nexus
#

ima wait until i need to get something from there LMFAO

fluid ravine
#

lmaooo

#

theres also like switch testers packs online that you could buy to try from

#

again its for mx boards though

fiery nexus
#

yh i dont have any mx boards

fluid ravine
#

ripppp

#

what do you have rn?

#

#

I'll raise it again

honest nacelle
#

ideally, longer springs, loose spring options (for ppl who alr have fluxes), fixed magnet tolerances, properly demag springs (either something was randomly remagnetising springs or the demagnetiser wasn't doing a good enough job consistently)

tropic urchin
#

mine have been pretty good, just waiting on those long boi options for the fast rebound smile

honest nacelle
#

😭

#

yea idk

#

on adc numbers some boards have had blown out flux readings due to an overly strong magnet

#

never really affected performance but was just an irritating issue

#

prevented accurate readings for a lot of things iirc

#

but w/e they said its possible to work on it to prevent that from happening

I've been thinking about buying a Cerakey set for my wooting, should i be worried about my switches actuation force and the weight of the cerakeys? For reference if it's worth anything I'm using 50g RAWs

not a benefit

just diff

sick jackal
#

Oh, okay. I'm looking for keycaps as we speak for my build. My keyboard came in today so I'm trying to find ideas. I was briefly looking at Metallic keycaps from I believe Awekey?

thorn zealot
#

tbh idk why someone would get metal keycaps

sick jackal
#

Well, I was thinking of Longevity, apparently they're thocky, and some of them are about the cost of GMK's.

#

Plus them always being constantly cold would be pretty cool as well.

thorn zealot
#

i mean ig

#

but i heard of some bad tolerance issues with the stems on them

#

if u rly want that "thocky" sound for keycaps, prob get ceramics

sick jackal
#

Gotcha, I'm not to familiar with keycaps and I've been out of the keyboard "game" for several years.

#

So, I'm not entirely sure what to look for atm. I got a case for the 80he, new switches, and I was looking at stabs.

fluid ravine

#

well

honest nacelle
#

i mean i prefer not to use foams

fluid ravine
#

Dr Dave sent me the wrong foams i think with my neo

#

he sent me his bauer lite and salvation foam kit

#

ermmmm

honest nacelle
#

few boards I have use foams but its typically only if the case doesn't sound good without it

fluid ravine
honest nacelle
#

so like my fjell just sounds nice without foams

#

its just dumb heavy

fluid ravine
honest nacelle
#

yea

#

rare instance of me using foams willingly is with my think6.5 r2

fluid ravine
#

otherwise i try to avoid any plate foam or pcb sheets

honest nacelle
#

as my work board I tried to make it quiet

#

its uhh

#

stupid quiet

#

like quieter than hhkb or membrane

#

about on par with real silent switches

#

I actually only have two 65% board left and both are sentimental so I'll probably never sell em.

fluid ravine
#

well i sold everything of my optimum and wooting plates

#

now im onto the new world of HE and revisiting the MX

honest nacelle
fluid ravine
#

gotta love life

honest nacelle
#

still use mx for work but HE is so interesting to me

fluid ravine
honest nacelle
#

😭

fluid ravine
#

CAM as well

honest nacelle
#

yea i think so too

#

I think I'd be back on mx if I wasn't working or so involved in HE

fluid ravine
#

bro dont need HE but he far in too deep with it

stray tiger
#

I made the switch to all HE almost a year ago and haven't looked back. In fact the MX board Alex is building for me next week will likely be the last one I'll own

fluid ravine
#

so it interesting to him

honest nacelle
#

yea

honest nacelle
#

I'm in an awesome place as well where I can directly influence good products

stray tiger
#

But to be fair, they are MX boards that I converted to HE

fluid ravine
#

idk how to go about all this 😭

fluid ravine
#

like even your derirative

stray tiger
# fluid ravine fr????

Just got tired of swapping boards when I wanted to game and the switches are almost close enough to MX that it's pointless

honest nacelle
#

like even the slice75 - thats a surprisingly good board and I can actually enact change or updates

fluid ravine
#

however you spell it

honest nacelle
#

derivative

fluid ravine
#

thx

#

now we wait for venom65he :>

honest nacelle
#

where i had an EC, MX and HE internal build ready to swap in

#

but kind of realised that EC wasn't really it for me

#

and MX and HE served different purposes for me

stray tiger
honest nacelle
#

and I couldn't minmax HE as much as I wanted

stray tiger
fluid ravine
#

i was honestly planning to do venom 60he and mx to swap in and out of my leggera

#

but i think it would be a lot of work and might as well get a seperate mx boar

#

which i did

#

but now where i would i put my second board when im not using it.....

honest nacelle
#

all my mx boards are on stands around my work setup

#

and all my HE stuff is by my gaming computer

#

so I have to traverse 3 flights of stairs if I need to test one at a diff setup

fluid ravine
#

ugh rich life

#

jk

honest nacelle

#

honest nacelle
#

nah my work setup is powered by my surface pro

#

its just 2 screens + surface pro

#

and an old af desk

#

lowk unsustainable for actual work but it worked fine when I was a wee child in hs

fluid ravine
#

ic

honest nacelle
#

yea but now I do remote work and need actual space so I'm in the middle of building a proper office

#

and just have to keep it clean kek

stray tiger
#

@fluid ravine the real advantage of MX is rhe maturity of it that allows so much more customization but I now consider MX boards to be like analog watches or vinyl albums

fluid ravine
#

see all i wish for rn is a house, a room, and a bigger desk

tawdry tree
#

I don’t get the 2 in 1 though, is it even possible for a board to use both at the same time?

#

Or what’s the goal?

I don’t know if that will save the market though because their population decline is so severe that in 20 years things will look really rough. But for now housing pricing is still bout 1 mil for any apartments within Seoul up to 20 mil+

I actually think learning instrument early was good though, even though I hated it and never stuck with it. Good for developing that part of brain that connects to rhythm and timing

venom pcb is 1.6mm

I can’t recall if they even have a 1.2mm option

cause i can just grab them with keycaps and save some money in shipping

both arent recorded with the same gain btw
