[thorn zealot]

ig im not usin my hhkb rn

[cyan lark]

I did for a few weeks until it gave me wrist pain and I sold it

[polar girder]

We know

[thorn zealot]

its plugged in but im not typin on it rn

[polar girder]

Yeah you just like staring at it and taking pictures

Like every other HHKB owner

[thorn zealot]

How u know

[polar girder]

Pretending they’re at peace typing on it

[polar girder]

5th time I’ve seen these pictures is how I know

You had that keyboard for like a week?

lol ok sorry hating on HHKB not you

[cyan lark]

That case is purty

[thorn zealot]

yes and i cant stop typin on it

cuz after goin from he to mx

im doin 30min monkeytype sessions

[polar girder]

lol yeah exactly

Just admiring it

Using it aesthetically

[thorn zealot]

yes my fingers admire it

[polar girder]

Bro can’t even crouch jump

Psh

[thorn zealot]

💀

[polar girder]

lol it’s fine

[thorn zealot]

my fingers and ears admire it

[polar girder]

Just cuz it’s not for me doesn’t mean it can’t be for someone

I like HHKB aesthetically

I could never own one tho

[thorn zealot]

thats why i keep my venom in my desk drawer whenever i need to play any game

i cant imagine tryin to crouch where the caps lock key would be instead of the corner

[cyan lark]

This is the one thing I took from my time with HHKB. Changed it on all KBs going forward. It is the way.

[thorn zealot]

i have a essay due tmr

time to test new ctrl spot

[tropic urchin]

Well that’s certainly a keyboard

[polar girder]

Spitting

[thorn zealot]

its the perfect set for u

greg

[tropic urchin]

How do you see my lazurite builds and think of mustard brown 😭

[thorn zealot]

u dont see the vision

[tropic urchin]

I’d rather go full WOB/BOW

And I hate simplicity

[polar girder]

Sponge Bob square brain looking ahhhhh

[tropic urchin]

He’s not wrong 😭

White top looks like mold

SpongeBob going moldy ahh

[thorn zealot]

fine heres another option

[polar girder]

Bro downgraded

[tropic urchin]

Just give me handarbeit 😭

I’d rather have bird food keycaps than that shii

[thorn zealot]

fine here

[tropic urchin]

These keycaps have infinitely more aura than your fast food caps

[sweet oak]

they should make a keycap set based off

the classic

[tropic urchin]

Where have I seen this before

Core memory was just unlocked

[thorn zealot]

can u tell ur brethrens to quit spyin on me

i wasnt goin to steal tuans gmk chill

[sweet oak]

[thorn zealot]

now im cookin

[stray tiger]

I've got half of these at least if you ever want to see em

[uneven cradle]

I have 1 of them

[stray tiger]

Retro wave may still be available on Novelkeys for the next hour unless it just ended 17min ago

Was in the GMK Extras sale they listed on Friday

[thorn zealot]

i think that limited extras run ended

[stray tiger]

Yeah 10pm est so 18min ago

[thorn zealot]

not like i wouldve got any after my mom spent $300 on my acc 🥀

[thorn zealot]

do u have a kb case thats like a rose gold type of color

[stray tiger]

I've got this one

[thorn zealot]

yeah like that

cuz a kb im lookin at has that type of color

and i want to try gmk for the first time on it

[stray tiger]

It's called Clay but it's kind of gold'ish

[thorn zealot]

thats good enough

my list is just some sets i thought would look decent with that rose gold type case color

[stray tiger]

Almost anything would look good on it but my favorite on gold is GMK Sloth, however KKB has some great sets like Alhambra and Machinist

[thorn zealot]

alr thanks

now ima need to lock in on essay

[cyan lark]

Better yet, keebmat

I'd rock that all day

[astral birch]

Anyone got any case recommendations for 80he?

[thorn zealot]

btw for the new ctrl key what finger do u use to press

[cyan lark]

Left pinky

[thorn zealot]

alr thats what im doin too

ig it just makes it so that i dont have to reach my pinky down lower to do ctrl + actions

[cyan lark]

Exactly. I used control all day, rarely use caps lock. Puts the more frequently used key right within reach.

[thorn zealot]

its the same reason for usin split bksp

shortens distance ur pinky needs to travel

[cyan lark]

Yeah I'd like to try it someday

[thorn zealot]

ever since i got used to it now i keep pressing \ on my school laptop

[jade prairie]

have peripheralphiles gotten to the level of audiophiles

[glacial wind]

That’s how it’s always been

[steel ibex]

The case Wooting sells is also good

https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/s/tIKC4Halc4

[chilly mural]

I cop

[fluid ravine]

real tb

[chilly mural]

100he should be like this.

[uneven cradle]

[paper bloom]

If wooting does the 65HE

Yes yes

[languid pine]

0_o

Thats everything but the module now

[median fog]

who would charging work though - you should be able to connect all of them together and charge with 1 cable right - but also probably wireless charging is ideal for this for all these attached parts.

but what's really the point of separating F row at all - it just never gets in the way etc. and is always useful to have dedicated (also makes kb heavier, harder to accidentally move).
this is still a very standard layout though - we need to gradually try to standardize more ergo and more useful standard layouts - Wooting should lead the way on this ideally, after all the HE products are performance improvements are done - focus on layout improvements.

[dire delta]

Ayo can I match different HE switches on the 80HE?

[glacial wind]

most of them yeah, just not any that change magnet location or have crazy magnetic flux values

[fallen pecan]

Phylina pink lightning pro

[glacial wind]

hrm what makes it pro

longer spring maybe?

the +- seems the same so no change in magnet

[tropic urchin]

Bink

W sakura patent

[glacial wind]

seems same mats too but i guess the pc is now transparent pc

[tropic urchin]

I might try them out if they make the rounds to milktooth

Man probably getting some nice traffic bump

[cyan lark]

Why come?

[tropic urchin]

Free way to skirt tariffs since his prices are usually MSRP

For US anyway

Fluxies are listed there same with owlabs

[little glen]

Recently learned about the existence of self lubricating plastics, how realistic is it to use those for switches/have they been used in the past?

[cyan lark]

I'm guessing he has stock built up? BTW I looked late last night and no aurora, but outside my home is surrounded by trees so I couldn't see the horizon T_T

[snow yarrow]

Yes, they advertise pom as self lubricating

Let me tell you tho, I aint noticing any of that self lubrication

[glacial wind]

the self lubricating stuff is a bunch of nonsense iirc

[cyan lark]

Gotta touch the button just right for self lubrication

[glacial wind]

there was basically some study or something about the self lubricating value of a specific type of pom that was actually self lubricating iirc, then all the keyboard manus just started claiming their pom switches were self lubricating even if it wasn't

[little glen]

So they assume their pom is the same as some pom with x additive

When they dont use that

[glacial wind]

it's been ages since i deep dived into that but that's what I roughly recall when this topic came up in mech keyboard space ages ago

the bottom line was it is actually a smoother plastic regardless, but that doesn't mean it doesn't need or benefit from lube, so the marketing for it talking like it doesn't need lube is all a bit silly

[glacial wind]

Shafie an hour late

So is it really just transparent and a 20mm spring?

[ripe nova]

another one??

[trail bane]

Shafie are u Estonian?

Or did you work in Estonian intelligence?

[sacred elm]

Huh, no

[snow yarrow]

Thats exactly what someone that works in estonian intelligence would say........

[tropic urchin]

He does the EU time and currency at the end (25$) so I have my suspicions

Definitely undercover

[sacred elm]

@tropic urchin yea I give up, my beastx is unusable on glasspad 🥀

[tropic urchin]

Yeah it’s too small isn’t it

[sacred elm]

No

I mean the uneven base

It feels so bad

[spiral elm]

Where can i buy 110 pack of TTC KOM POM switches?

[sacred elm]

Are you NA?

[spiral elm]

yes

I've found a few sites but I don't know if they're legit/reliable or not.

[sacred elm]

milktooth

[tropic urchin]

Yeah I recommend milktooth

If you don’t wanna pay a lot of tariffs, I’ve been shopping milktooth more and more, they have decent prices

Ships from CA and you’ll get the OG POMs and if you want the white Wooting collab you’ll need to order off Wooting directly

I think they still have a 20% off deal on POMs iirc

[spiral elm]

what's the difference between The magneto's and POM magneto's

[tropic urchin]

The RGB version vs POM version is that what you’re asking?

[spiral elm]

Magneto

POM magneto

[tropic urchin]

Yeah those are the RGB ones

They’re not fully POM, but have a translucent top housing for RGB

[spiral elm]

RGB Magneto

[tropic urchin]

I think this was their original mold, it’s slightly less stable than POM, but POM is the more recent switch from their lineup

I’d just go for POM and if RGB is very important the RGB one

[spiral elm]

Diving down the rabbit hole of keyboards is like diving down the rabbit hole of headphones, I HATE IT.

[tropic urchin]

Wait until you go down keycaps

It’s very easy to get lost

[spiral elm]

I am a blasphemer, i wanna try typewriter style keycaps, but i can't find any good ones

[tropic urchin]

That’s how I was with shine through keycaps and I just settled for GMK ones

There’s nothing ‘good’ for super niche sets which was upsetting

[past hinge]

Should I get Owlab ti he or Gateron jade pro switches, I mainly play fps games, am a little deaf and can’t hear the sound of switches while playing so I don’t really care about the sound they make which one feels better and is better for fps

[tropic urchin]

Owlab

POM will be better stability overall, but TIs are great for the price. Jade pros are outdated and have been overtaken at this point

I went from Jade pros to POM and I was disgusted at how wobbly Jade pros were

[past hinge]

Thanks I appreciate it don’t know much about switches and it sound like owlab are better should I get 50gf or 40gf?

[tropic urchin]

I’m using 42.5g springs from geon with mine atm and I got 50g to experiment. I think lighter springs can be nice for fps, but it’ll be a personal preference thing

My recommendation would be if you don’t know and don’t mind spring swapping I’d pick up 42.5g geon pingless and see which you like more

That way you’ll know and won’t have something you don’t want

[marsh saffron]

Not for me

I seen xrays and knew I was set

[tropic urchin]

Rare case

I had 5 months waiting for my 80HE to lose myself

🥀

[marsh saffron]

Need to get a photo of my new mouse w my keyboard

[tropic urchin]

@past hinge https://divinikey.com/products/geon-pingless-he-compatible-springs

[past hinge]

Thank you 🙏

[tropic urchin]

You’ll need a switch opener too, but that should be all you need

[chilly mural]

just go with gmk, ez

[chilly mural]

wish gateron innovate more and take feedback

[tropic urchin]

Asking for too much chief

[chilly mural]

😭

wish every company is like wooting

[cyan lark]

OG POMs are still so beautiful 🌹

[wide turtle]

Anyone tried ultem plate for 80he?

Does it really sound good compare to alu or fr4?

[granite garden]

what foam is good to buy ? for the keyboard

[sacred elm]

The one it comes with or polyfill

[low linden]

Hey, are the Klippe T Stabs an Plate compatible with wooting? The compatibility list says that only the case is compatible with the wooting 60he but I dont see why the plate and stabs wouldn't fit, but maybe im wrong lol

[glacial wind]

The 60he plus is screw in stab compatible but it’s not compatible with all screw in stabs

And plates for he boards are typically different to non he boards even in the same format

[robust ether]

not sure is this is the right chat but i was curious if i wanted some higher quality key caps that dont feel cheaply made and also pink what would be a good place to go to or a material to look for

for my wooting 80

[glacial wind]

Maybe look at some of the osume keycaps if you’re after a comfy pastel vibe

[robust ether]

alright but what type of material would i go for so it doesnt just feel like cheap plastic?

[glacial wind]

Usually cheap feeling is because they’re cheaply reverse dyesub printed keycaps that fade or you feel the cheap dyesub

as long as it’s not that and nice thick keycaps then they shouldn’t feel cheap

[robust ether]

i know this might be annoying but do you have any links to the osume ones so i know what to look for?

[glacial wind]

They have their own website

[robust ether]

oh okay

[glacial wind]

https://osume.com/en-kr/collections/all-keycaps

[robust ether]

im doing this because i was gonna get the a75 master for drunkdeer but ive heard some negative things about drunkdeer today which kinda sketched me away especially at that price

[glacial wind]

That’s just one of many brands of course - but they’re a very popular brand with the comfy pastel side of the hobby

[robust ether]

ah i see

how well does the led come through?

[glacial wind]

Yeah their discord has been on a bit of a meltdown last couple weeks due to the constant firmware issues

[robust ether]

yea so i thought ill try mod the wooting to feel better instead

might try buy a metal case for my wooting 80 not sure if thats doable

[glacial wind]

Led just shines underneath like any other standard keycap

[robust ether]

do you any good brands that are more transparent?

[glacial wind]

You mean shine through?

[robust ether]

i want the led to shine through

yea

[glacial wind]

That’s very rare if you want that

You’d be mostly looking at cheap gamery brands

[robust ether]

oh i see

[glacial wind]

I can’t say I’d recommend any of them really

[robust ether]

is there a good brand that has a little more shine?

[glacial wind]

No it’s only shine through or not through

There’s no middle ground

[robust ether]

so im better of going for no shine through

[glacial wind]

But your led are still very bright even with non shine through

The only difference is the letters are carved out in shine through

[robust ether]

oh is that it

is there any other brands you have i could compare osume to

to look at colours and things

i wanna make sure im getting the colour as nice as possible to what i want

[glacial wind]

There’s tons of brands. Osume is one, keykobo, wuque studio, pbtfans, gmk

Just to name a few

[robust ether]

i was gonna look for a glossy one

a bit like the a75 master

but im not sure if more pastel would look nicer

not sure if a more pastel colour would look better

[glacial wind]

Oh you want fully see through keycaps?

You can find those but honestly they don’t feel very nice

[robust ether]

oh thats good to know

[glacial wind]

They’re usually made from a different pc plastic to be made transparent

[robust ether]

since im pretty sensory so thats good for me

[glacial wind]

It looks cool but a lot of people don’t like the feel of them

[robust ether]

how do i know if the key caps will fit

or do all keycaps fit all kbs

[glacial wind]

Generally any will fit. It’s called cherry mx format

[robust ether]

oh thats why i kept seeing cherry mx red

[glacial wind]

You can ask here to be sure but almost all keycaps outside of a few weird gamer brands like Logitech will fit

[robust ether]

im thinking combine these with special designed ones on these

(might look for a better quality keycap for the designed ones but i think might be nice

was gonna go pink but this blue is really nice

[glacial wind]

Yeah osume has really nice pastel sets. They basically cornered the market for that vibe

[robust ether]

if i send the link of the second picture can you check the quality of them? or would the picture of the amazon page be enough to tell

just wanna make sure before i buy

[glacial wind]

Those are cheap printed keycaps most likely

They’re just clones resold on Amazon

[robust ether]

ah i see

is there any good brands specifically if i wanted a design for the side keys

[glacial wind]

Those shops buy from aliexpress and resell on Amazon for double

Honestly that’s tricky because combining sets is tough for matching colors exactly

[robust ether]

im not to bothered if colours match exact

just need to be similar enough

[glacial wind]

And those special keys get sold usually in artisan sets which is expensive

[robust ether]

exspensive like above $100?

[glacial wind]

Per key yeah

Like $50 per key isn’t odd for artisan designs

[robust ether]

oh i see

how do i make sure it comes with the 80%

layout

[glacial wind]

Look at base set and it shows all the keys included there

[robust ether]

so this is fine?

[glacial wind]

Yeah

[robust ether]

alright

how hard would it be to swap the bottom for the kb

like the base

[glacial wind]

You’ll notice some novelty keys btw

[robust ether]

if i wanted a heavier one

[glacial wind]

Which may be what you’re after

[robust ether]

that works

[glacial wind]

Like some of those osume sets have novelty key sets like this https://osume.com/en-kr/products/dusk-twilight-kit

Designed to be paired with the base set

[robust ether]

dam

might grab that with the blue

lowkey

maybe this one?

[glacial wind]

They usually have a novelty set for every base set they sell so you can look around and see what you like yeah

[stray tiger]

I became an Osume fan just in the last few months and have now purchased 3 sets of them.

[robust ether]

dam

this is my first time customizing lmao

[glacial wind]

Their stuff is great honestly. Comes packaged really nicely too

[robust ether]

do you know how hard it would be to swap the plastic case of the wooting

wooting 80

im thinking of getting a metal case for it

[stray tiger]

Very easy and there are videos online step by step

[robust ether]

alright

is there any good companys

to look for

[little glen]

join the gt80 club

😎

[robust ether]

if i wanted a blue metal case

[robust ether]

whats gt?

[little glen]

https://kbdfans.com/products/gt-80-case

no blue unfortunately

[robust ether]

ah

i kinda want a blue one

to match the key caps

[little glen]

silver is always good

[robust ether]

silver+ pastel blue?

[stray tiger]

I love colored cases but as someone with way too many keyboards, it's never a bad idea to go black, white/silver, gray, beige/cream and then use keycaps to change the look. That way your board will always match your desk setup

[little glen]

silver always works, white would be alright or the pink may actually work with blue

[robust ether]

whats the daugher bored?

[little glen]

if you already have a plastic case you do not need this

[robust ether]

i have the default wooting 80

[stray tiger]

it would be if you only had the module and not the full keyboard already

Youre good then

[robust ether]

alright thanks for the help guys

[little glen]

hey thockfather how do i satisfy the craving for building a board

i dont have anything to build with atm 😭

[stray tiger]

Rebuild another board and go for a completely new sound

[little glen]

i might get a neo65cu (ive been saying this for months now)

maybe something to put my gmk mictlan or bingsu or sloth (when that comes) on

[little glen]

maybe i'll pick up another oring for the leggera and swap back to fr4 plate

[stray tiger]

Bingsu looks great on gold cases Ive noticed.

If I coulds have converted the Neo60cu to HE, I'd have picked one up

[little glen]

yeah

the case looks rlly good

[stray tiger]

For sure! Been trying to find another Derivative in another color but havent had a single hit

[little glen]

maybe i should just focus on getting a pcb for my salvation

tho i kinda want to save that case for 60he v2

[cyan lark]

I was thinking of putting a v2 in mine as well ❤️

Still so glad we got in on the salv RNG deal. Love that thing.

[little glen]

yeah

insane deal

[stray tiger]

MX or HE?

[little glen]

unfortunately we cant just give someone a default recommendation for 60he case anymore since that deal is gone now

[cyan lark]

Ooh, speaking of great deals my Tiger Lite + Benom just shipped!

[little glen]

i was looking for mx for a while but finding compatible pcb with iso support (and stepped caps/7u space if possible) turned out to be surprisingly difficult

[stray tiger]

Oh I thought you were in the US. ISO ewwww

[little glen]

especially since i dont have a soldering iron and dont really plan on getting one

[little glen]

still not in the US

otherwise i would have offered to buy some of your stuff

[stray tiger]

I keep getting you and phish confused lol

Most of my stuff is gone now man. Only thing left is a case that no one has picked up yet and I can only think it's because no one even knows what it is since only like 20 were made. It would probably help if I added photos but I was hoping someone would do some research on their own and snag a sweet ass deal lol

People too lazy nowadays!

[little glen]

bet there was some nice stuff in there

whats the last thing if i may ask

just curious

[stray tiger]

Sentraq HP Case with Brass Insert (weighs like 1.8lbs)

Its like a smaller Fjell basically

[little glen]

im ngl i google that and cant find anything

https://tenor.com/view/baby-girl-middle-finger-mood-screw-you-leave-me-alone-gif-10174031

[cyan lark]

Been a long while since I've used a traditional TKL layout. I don't really miss it, I barely use that nav cluster at all.

If I could find a good use for a megaknob I might put one in there when that comes out

Honestly don't know what I'm gonna do with this board. It's the first fairly superfluous one I picked up, just couldn't ignore that price I guess.

Foot keyboard?

[tawdry tree]

https://www.163.com/dy/article/K15CLLHO0519QIKK.html 👀

[stray tiger]

You gotta get a bit creative but it's out there. Here was the old page https://web.archive.org/web/20190512182315/https://sentraq.com/collections/parts/products/60-aluminum-high-profile-case?variant=13046722428951

Even on the old site it only shows the blue version. Mine is the Gunmetal (gray) version

[chilly mural]

naisu, hopefully the firmware is good

[tawdry tree]

surely

I think it’s a switch

at least from the article it seems to be

but doubt it’d be compatible with woot

[kindred lagoon]

Whee, finally finished that batch of frankenswitches. Some of it is already on the board (+ the FR4 plate)

[tawdry tree]

considering huano’s prev mag switches

[stray tiger]

RAWHuks?

[chilly mural]

talking about patents, I wonder if woot patented the HE knob. Good chance they dont and just relying on other manu's skill issue to not being able to do it well.

[kindred lagoon]

hell yea

[tawdry tree]

actually nvm, forgot their recent one.

[tawdry tree]

if it can do what they say it can, for sure.

the small one

big one not that interesting I think

[stray tiger]

I think Wooting should put 0.001 under all of their switch pictures since people apparently dont know anything

[tawdry tree]

or not that mechanically impressive rather

[chilly mural]

yeah, but still nice for it to exist since it allows the idea that 4 keys on 80he can still do a fuck ton.

[late kiln]

I’m following https://youtu.be/trONM_2ENNw but at 3:04 my stablisers don’t have screws to connect to board

[chilly mural]

like a track ball!

[tawdry tree]

those are plate mounted stabilizers, you install the plate first, then the stabs and then your switches.

[stray tiger]

Do they have a clip?

[late kiln]

Yes

[tawdry tree]

can you send a pic?

[stray tiger]

Ignore the screw in part and just clip it in

Yeah or let us know which ones you have

[tawdry tree]

can be either plate mounts or clip ins

[late kiln]

I’m using pre built 60he+ and I had to press down clips on the white frame

[tawdry tree]

the big knob prob is more accurate

[tawdry tree]

plate mounts then.

[chilly mural]

1/400 assuming 0.01mm, or even 1/4000 for 0.001mm. 1/40 if wooting wanna be safe since it's 0.1mm. For big one, I imagine 1/2000 could be possible.

I can imagine chinese manu that does knob gonna do 0.0001mm for 1/40000+

[cyan lark]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ip641WmY4pA The megaknob we deserve

[tawdry tree]

I fully expected the small knob to be like that, in the sense that it has stops at the beginning and end. when you twist beyond that, it’d act as if you were turning it continuously.

I wouldn’t think that’s harder to implement than continuous but maybe

[late kiln]

I’m clueless on how to put the stabilisers on despite removing them. Can you tell me how to?

[tawdry tree]

did you install the plate already?

[late kiln]

Still separate pieces

Do I need them together?

[tawdry tree]

yeah

screw the plate on forst, then install the stabs and then the switches

[thorn zealot]

I wish I had a blue name

[tawdry tree]

if you want to use the foam between the plate and PCB, you need to put that in between as well

before you screw the plate on

[stray tiger]

Just need to snag that 80HE then!

[thorn zealot]

Yeah prolly not

Tbh I don’t think I need a kb bigger than 60

[late kiln]

This?

[tawdry tree]

nope, that’s the case foam

[late kiln]

Came with the case

The one that came with module on 60he+?

[tawdry tree]

in the bag where the PET sheet was in, there should be plate foam as well

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1379380823689662464/1379381141005406268/image.png?ex=6840084b&is=683eb6cb&hm=b8ad3b88439f7c9840ccc638a473cec860e16007b9e820b2d64148747e492030&

[late kiln]

Oh

[tawdry tree]

yes 👍

now you can screw the standoffs to the plate if you haven’t already

[languid pine]

I am terrible at taking photos but hear ya go, the keys might look sinked i to the case and thats because its purely just the cf plate, switches and foams underneath as i am waiting for the v2

[sacred elm]

Looks great

[chilly mural]

Enjoy your keyboard!

Oh, it's empty

[languid pine]

[chilly mural]

Enjoy looking at your case!

[languid pine]

for at minimum 4+months

[sweet oak]

Crunch maxing

[robust ether]

are the red switches the same as the wooting ones but recoloured or different ones

[languid pine]

they are gateron jade rubys

[little glen]

i think those are a recolor of jade pros

[sacred elm]

slightly improved jade pros

better factory lube and a bit tighter

[stray tiger]

I applaud you for not going Evil Dolche, BoW/WoB, Redline or Snail

Kap generations just clicked with me lol, also the way they are made is interesting

[trail bane]

Xd

[languid pine]

Purely for asmr purposes

That is true peer to peer

[uneven cradle]

Hey those are all sets I own

[stray tiger]

Just means you cant get a black OW60!

[uneven cradle]

It's alright my bank account says I can't get one of those

Although f1-65 could have the right timing for a new keyboard

One box on wedge please

[chilly mural]

if compatible with venom 65, do it with raeds

[uneven cradle]

I think that would be considered a crime

[tidal frigate]

I can understand, using venom and best switches on market. But 65% it is too far

[upbeat sorrel]

hmm

makes me wonder if the venom60 will work with my Unikorn

[robust ether]

will a metal case for the wooting make it alot louder even if with the quieter wooting 80?

[stray tiger]

Yes it will

[uneven cradle]

Works with the Wooting 60HE so pretty sure it would also work with venom60

[upbeat sorrel]

Have to look into it then

The JST connector might just be the issue

But I’ll look into it

[tawdry tree]

someone made the 60HE work with it?

[reef oar]

[uneven cradle]

https://www.reddit.com/r/WootingKB/comments/1agh48h/singa_unikorn_x_wooting_60he/

Couple people from memory

Little iffy on the fit

[robust ether]

I love how this looks

[languid pine]

my one concern with it right now is how easily on the ow60 the switch moves

[uneven cradle]

I think Rivion has a venom Unikorn also

[upbeat sorrel]

https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/1gu6i15/singakbd_unikorn_r22_hall_effect/

saw this as well when I looked it up, its prob better for me to buy the venom PCB tbh

[tawdry tree]

forgot there was a non db version

r1 is gh60 usbc and r2 is centered?

[tawdry tree]

does it move by tilting it?😬

[languid pine]

yes

[tawdry tree]

interesting

mine did as well

I still didn’t really get a concrete answer if it was within OW’s qc or not

but support said to return it for a replacement

🤷‍♂️

[languid pine]

i can get it to stay locked in the stiff position

[tawdry tree]

do the modes work properly with your unit?

when mine was set to stiff, it was still bouncy on one side

[languid pine]

its free moving when there is no load on the mechanism though

[tawdry tree]

no load as in?

[tidal frigate]

Did you get replacement?

[tawdry tree]

still waiting on it

how’s yours?

[tidal frigate]

I will double check it tommorow

Because i did quick check only

@tawdry tree should i do it in gloves

[tawdry tree]

lmao

[tidal frigate]

Well i didnt take protective layer on back

[tawdry tree]

I didn’t wanna get fingerprints all over it right away

gloves are nice

😃👍

[tidal frigate]

So if mine broken what picks should i give them

@languid pine how about u?

[languid pine]

just recorded it, it seems to have equal flex when in locked mode

[tidal frigate]

Can u post

[tawdry tree]

equal flex as in the same on both sides or as in the same in both modes?

💀

[languid pine]

same on both sides

[tawdry tree]

ah, good

[languid pine]

Oops

[tidal frigate]

Post it on yt

Or do not record it in 4k

[languid pine]

i can size it down

[tidal frigate]

@tawdry tree

@languid pine why it looks unbalanced

[tawdry tree]

that’s so odd. so it’s no longer tactile when you tilt it on its side..

[tidal frigate]

Wait.. i might have same issue as him too

[marble sierra]

I find that the slider on mine gets jammed in the middle, then gets really hard to push either way. Then have to use a good amount of force to unjam it to move either way, flexes nicely when open and is stiff when it's suppose to be. The movement at the front is different on both sides and unequal with flex. More stiff on the front left and flexes more on the front right when I push down

[languid pine]

probably just the camera

[tidal frigate]

Wait mine is also hard to push

[tawdry tree]

[marble sierra]

Like does it get jammed inbetween both functions 🤣

[tawdry tree]

what happens when it’s in between both?

[stray tiger]

Being tough to push can be normal behavior. Dont forget he doesnt have a PCB in his right now

[tawdry tree]

is it still bouncy or something?

[languid pine]

only when i put pressure down on the top half

[marble sierra]

I just done it and it's stiff when it's stuck

[languid pine]

and that, no pcb

[tawdry tree]

implo built his fully afaik

[stray tiger]

Yeah thats what Ive experienced

[marble sierra]

Yeah this was my first full build from scratch

[stray tiger]

With Aligners just free moving up and down, thats not normal

[marble sierra]

Including stab and switch lubing

[tidal frigate]

Your Slider also gets locked in 1mm space between bottom for stiff and top? Like you have gap if mode is turned on

[tawdry tree]

it’s odd that it varies so much though

[marble sierra]

Yeah just feels awful to wanna ever swap between both modes

[tawdry tree]

aaron’s seems to move freely as well when tilted on its side (rather than front/back)

[tidal frigate]

Do you have also gap on top or bottom if slider is fully in?

[robust ether]

https://kbdfans.com/products/gt-80-case?variant=42879942099083 if i get a case like this one how would i tell if the rubber feet at the back of the kb will work

the detachable ones from the wooting 80he

[languid pine]

they dont

[robust ether]

would that be rare to find in a case

[tawdry tree]

the typing angle isn’t adjustable with the case if that’s your question

[tawdry tree]

a bit, yeah

[languid pine]

it is a comfortable angle though

[marble sierra]

I don't understand, able to show me a video of what you mean?

[robust ether]

can you show the side if thats possible?

like the side view

[robust ether]

ohh

not to bad

a bit like my old drunkdeer a75

[uneven cradle]

Adjustable typing angle is pretty rare outside of those OEM plastic feet flippy things

[tidal frigate]

Do you have space when slider is fully in blue area?

Took aligner photo

[robust ether]

oh i see

[tidal frigate]

But it is enough

[marble sierra]

No when it's open or closed there is 0 gap at all

I wonder if they even tested the cases before packing, how can there be so many different issues with the same product with such a price too

[tawdry tree]

your has a gap? mine did when the slider is down but it seemed to be because of that tape that’s in there.

[tawdry tree]

people speak highly of OW so maybe someone was sleeping when doing the qc

or maybe it’s within their standards

[languid pine]

ok so, with the case empty you can see the things moving right

one of my screws was loose

[marble sierra]

On the slider mechanism?

[languid pine]

yeah

[marble sierra]

Like how have they missed that 🤣

Might have to check mine

[tawdry tree]

does that change how easy it slides?

I only saw the screws in the corners

the ones in the rubber thingy

[tidal frigate]

I have no tape tho

[languid pine]

may be placebo but it may be slightly better

[tawdry tree]

that stick out when you press it down

[languid pine]

it looks like the actual plate is slightly tweaked

[tawdry tree]

🤔

[tidal frigate]

@tawdry tree mine has like gap on top and bottom depends on mode

And it is extremly hard to push in

[tawdry tree]

can’t push it so it’s fully closed?

ah

well

😃👍

[marble sierra]

but mine goes all the way on both sides

[marble sierra]

but gets jammed xD

[tidal frigate]

But propably slider is fucked like yours

[tawdry tree]

oh wtf

[tawdry tree]

it moves a lot further on one side

[languid pine]

Left side will go stop to stop whereas the right one gets to 75%

[tawdry tree]

hmm

but no difference in bounce/stiffness from side to side?

[languid pine]

No

If i clixk it into position it will go all the way

[tidal frigate]

Wonder how many qc issues there is

[marble sierra]

I will check mine tomorrow

Too busy in Marvel Rivals right now haha

[tawdry tree]

weird

[tidal frigate]

So i might have screw loose

[languid pine]

i dont think its that

[tawdry tree]

https://tenor.com/view/gravewalker-nuncamorto-coringando-dafoe-willem-dafoe-gif-18185510239881759990

[languid pine]

without knowing how the mechanism fully works my words are purely speculation

[languid pine]

https://tenor.com/view/hit-on-the-head-emoji-bat-gif-15059031914441491340

[tidal frigate]

Well it is time to take apart keyboard

To fix mechanism

[languid pine]

perhaps not

[tawdry tree]

not really informative on how it works

at least not to me

looks like there might be a screw in the center as well

maybe if that’s too tight it causes the slider to require a lot of force

or maybe it’s just for alignment

[tidal frigate]

There is zfrontier presentation about ow60

But it is in chinnese

[tawdry tree]

yeah I saw

calder spoke there too

[tidal frigate]

https://youtu.be/8qaXbMemVxw?si=QxCugvRsr0oQLVpQ

This one

[tawdry tree]

I get how it works somewhat but idfk what causes the tactility of the slider

[tidal frigate]

Well lets dowland video and trow it into ai

To translate

@tawdry tree because they definetly explain it

BUT IT IS IN CHINNESE

[tawdry tree]

you can see the animation

I don’t think they explain the tactility

[tidal frigate]

Well mechanism of moving case is basicly held by two screws

@tawdry tree shy calder speaking mandarin

[tawdry tree]

yeah

[tidal frigate]

Well do you have time to translate entire panel

With ai obviously

[tawdry tree]

whats like a good cheap alu case

for the wooting

on aliexpress

[gloomy quarry]

https://a.co/d/e5EYY0e I JUST bought this one, got it transfered over into it yesterday and it's alright. Nice feeling sort of gritty coating, "okay" sound, definitely a "good for the price" sounding case. A bit of a pain to gasket mod, but doable for sure. I'd say for $40 its a decent swap if you're interested in keeping the strap on the board like I was

[valid shell]

ty

[gloomy quarry]

My pleasure 🙂 and as a bonus through Amazon, if you decide you don't like it, free returns 😁

[valid shell]

oh ok

nice

ty

[gloomy quarry]

OH and if you do pick that case up, when I installed the board into it I was able to reuse the foam that came with the wooting, but there was like an extra piece glued onto the top of it I had to remove so the USB would line up properly

[steel ibex]

Guys any danger to buying used mechanical switches?

Cuz I’m not into paying 80$ for them when I can get them for 40

Same with cases

[tulip rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/gotosleep-or-iwill-putyou-tosleep-happygilmore-gif-19955735

[valid shell]

ty for all the help

[ripe nova]

which switches are you looking for?

[glacial wind]

i don't want to alarm you @sacred elm but wandrd is launching v4 of their backpack next week https://www.youtube.com/shorts/KI07AHV3HkE

[steel ibex]

Akko rosewoods or oil kings prob

[untold wigeon]

pesante

±3.1kg

multi mount capability

[chilly mural]

soo heavy

[untold wigeon]

after build maybe 3.4-3.6?

[uneven cradle]

That's a thicc boi

[ripe tulip]

so who's the top dog of the magnetic swtich?

[untold wigeon]

expensive : ws
cheap : owti

[ripe tulip]

flux?

[glacial wind]

let's not recommend that until they fix all their issues there with the flux

[untold wigeon]

[untold wigeon]

no one will pay for $2/switch as well

[glacial wind]

well beyond the $2 problem they have a ton of qc issues and recent test came out with them not winning on stability either it seems

[uneven cradle]

Tee hees are still the recommendation from me right now

[untold wigeon]

imagine $160 for the whole 80he

[glacial wind]

they got beaten by the entire ttc lineup for magnet stability

[untold wigeon]

no way, $2 per switch and can't even have a good performance wise

[untold wigeon]

yasss

relube them and they will sound a bit deeper

[glacial wind]

which is not a good look for a $2 a switch that claims to be costing $2 for new stable design lol

[untold wigeon]

L for WS

[glacial wind]

i'm curious to see these phylina lightnings feel when I get them next week

people say they're just current gen of tight switches but with box stem

[untold wigeon]

it's not box, it's dust proof stem

[glacial wind]

they need to figure out their translation too because half the people have them listed as phylina lightning and other half phylina thunderflash

[glossy pagoda]

Thunderflash and Lightning, very very frightening

[sacred elm]

You forgot thunderbolt

[glacial wind]

you don't have time for this shafie, you need to set your alarm for the wandrd prvke v4 bag launch

a good camera lens deserves a good bag

[glacial wind]

eyejokers computex video is up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_C7LsW2egJ0

[chilly mural]

I mean, you can kinda pay somebody to lube pom/kom and it'll be king.

[untold wigeon]

idk why, but the pom / kom still have the plastic sound which is not for everyone

the safe choice (all rounder) might be owti, but performance wise kom pom

[chilly mural]

cute

[glacial wind]

lol calder got scared about leaking theswitch selector I see

[ripe nova]

WHOLE 9 days just to ship.. (I got that for one set (30 pcs) of the phylina lightnings, the other one already shipped

[glacial wind]

oh actually the youtube comments bring up a good point

they need to either add a low shipping fee option or have geon carry the wooting knobs (or ship from hk maybe?) as well, because koreans going to get killed by shipping if it's EU warehouse as it currently is

[sacred elm]

👀

[glacial wind]

the minimum for wooting eu to korea shipping is so high that it's going to massively inflate price of the knob if there's no alternative

[uneven cradle]

I mean they have a relationship with Geon already and he's selling the 60HE and 80HE now?

Can't remember what he was stocking

[glacial wind]

yeah right now he stocks the prebuilts basically

said maybe modules in future depending on stock

would be nice if it extended to the knobs too when it comes out

[uneven cradle]

If the demand is there I'm sure something could be worked out

But I know low priced items have been a bit of logistical issue

[glossy pagoda]

This is something we're looking at, particularly for Korea and a few other nations

[glacial wind]

oo nice

[chilly mural]

Yeah, hopefully you can at least work out something for South East Asia folk, maybe put it on a SG/MY reseller since shipping there to my place is like 10x less than from EU.

[paper bison]

Possibly a stupid question but i’m being told different things by people and google but what orientation should the switch be for an ISO enter key?

[glossy pagoda]

Window to the left

[paper bison]

Thanks

[glossy pagoda]

Calder: We're going to demo the knob.
Simon: No.

https://tenor.com/view/u-wot-m8-gif-20998179

[tropic urchin]

Simon promotion noice

[ionic breach]

[untold wigeon]

but the knob is looking great

can’t wait to put my hands on it

it will be my fidget toy for sure

[wide turtle]

Owlabs here are cheap in PH. $40

[thorn zealot]

No way those cost 80

[glacial wind]

you're lucky 2.6mm wasn't an option on that poll @sacred elm

i would have voted for 2.6mm, ugly blue, no lube, mx stem

[uneven cradle]

F1-65 looking pretty hot 🔥

[sacred elm]

2.6mm travel😭

[wide turtle]

Bro shf what plate mount you use on your fluxes?

[chilly mural]

my kind of travel

[sacred elm]

do you mean stabilizers?

stock

[paper bison]

Clueless but what is the purpose of these? Came with the tofu redux and they’re just listed as “foam pads” on the site, my thought was they sit on the outcrop inside the edge of the case between the case and PCB

[ionic breach]

Custom cable arrived, gs cookies arrived, picked up my pc

good day

[wide turtle]

Oh. I tried the flux on fr4. Gonna wait for aluminum and ultem plate mount to test the sounds

[sacred elm]

ah plate, I like fluxes on soft plate like pc, didnt like on fr4 and cf

they are so loud on stiff plates

[polar girder]

Correct

[paper bison]

I forgot to put them in and already screwed everything in

[polar girder]

lol all good

[marble sierra]

These look kinda clean tbh

[tidal frigate]

I have seen this design somewhere

[marble sierra]

🤣 This one doesn't have the switch to get jammed

[tidal frigate]

Well you are definetly correct

[fluid ravine]

@stray tiger i got black snail alpha l9

@thorn zealot alright stay away now, this board finna be complete

[tropic urchin]

He’s in the woods, he can’t hear you

[chilly mural]

owlab at home

[polar girder]

It’s not the owlab?

So confused lol

[tawdry tree]

Calder wanted him to try the knob but simon looked worried af LOL

[chilly mural]

im also confused, I think it's the OW60 clone? Looks like one. Could also be what Owlab made as another version.

[tawdry tree]

clone

[polar girder]

Ah

[marble sierra]

Yeah it's called "LX60V2"

Was on Taobao as been browsing 🤣

[glacial wind]

oh shit you can use these new discord orb things to buy profile decorations

@sacred elm you know what you need to do. The copium profile add on is calling

or cat girl ears

[sacred elm]

[tropic urchin]

FFXIV gateway just started ggs

@sacred elm

[glacial wind]

hrm what to spend my 4100 orbs on

[tropic urchin]

Where do you find these orbs

[ripe tulip]

ws flux is good?

[glacial wind]

good feel but a lot of qc issues

[tropic urchin]

Price is dogshit, and have some QC issues (too strong magnets/not sturdy legs), but I haven’t had any issues on my Wooting board with them. If you’re a Saudi oil baron I’d get them, but you’ll get a better deal on owlabs

[glacial wind]

don't forget the springs too seem to not be fully demagnetized

[sacred elm]

Didnt know we were oil barons

[glacial wind]

that's how you guys bought them

1 oil field per set of flux

[sacred elm]

🤣

[glacial wind]

so the oil barons is past tense. You traded it all for 90 flux

[tropic urchin]

Even with all the reported QC issues I’ve had a flawless time with them

[sacred elm]

Yeah, others should copy the bottom housing design

[tropic urchin]

If someone took the design and made them better I’d 1,000% buy them

[sacred elm]

That ring on the bottom housing is so clutch

[glacial wind]

i think if they can do something similar like bottom housing, but use whatever voodoo magic ttc does to get the good magnets then that's pretty nice

[tropic urchin]

I had poms on benom for 2 hrs and I had to take them out

[glacial wind]

and maybe also make the legs just a little thicker lol

[tropic urchin]

Fluxies have taken my soul

[tropic urchin]

Unironically I’ve broken more owlab clips than flux legs (no fluxie legs damaged)

[glacial wind]

did you do a full swap out of flux yet

i've been telling shafie he needs to do that, but without removing plate first

[sacred elm]

nah huh

[glacial wind]

how can he know the quality of his flux if he doesn't limit test them

[tropic urchin]

I’ve done like 60-80% like that recently

I’ve gotten lazy recently and started to do that

Between swapping between 80HE and benom

3-4 owlab clips broken and 0 flux legs

[glacial wind]

see shafie

varedis now has a strong batch of flux

this could be you

[sacred elm]

Seems like I have weak batch beastx too 🥀

[tropic urchin]

Kazemi surface goated

[sacred elm]

Its not about surface, just my beastx copy is unlucky I guess

[tropic urchin]

W surface

[sacred elm]

Hana clears

[tropic urchin]

Clearly not if I can use Beastx on it 🤓

[thorn zealot]

I have mango opps around my house

I think this is called house arrest or some

[sacred elm]

You clearly have lucky beastx copy

[untold wigeon]

ngl mine too

[sacred elm]

It is my beastx because I moved dots from it to viper v3 and everything is smooth now

Cooked base

[untold wigeon]

the clicks are so mushy & and side buttons are bad

the base is also cooked

[tropic urchin]

VV3 clicks are so bad in comparison to my pro 💀

[sacred elm]

apparently beastx uneven base is very common

[untold wigeon]

true

[sacred elm]

Its noticeable on glasspad, was fine when I used raiden

[untold wigeon]

and my 80he is also a defect now

[untold wigeon]

ngl, i prefer vv2 pro switches

[sacred elm]

hope my x2 crazylight is perfect 🙏

[untold wigeon]

ngl..
since i use both keeb,
i’m planning to sell my benom and keep the 80he

[untold wigeon]

wishing for x2h cl

ngl i need the hump

my endgame mouse rn is the x2h mini v2

[cloud pivot]

yea it helps with BO stability right

[untold wigeon]

even if it has a bad qc and mushy clicks (but i swapped it with vv2 pro clicks)

[sacred elm]

also with the sound

no spring ping or anything

[cloud pivot]

?!

thats nuts

too bad everything else about it is yuck

[sacred elm]

It secures spring and lube

I still have 0 spring ping

[fluid ravine]

I lowkey wanna like trade or make money out of my fluxes icl

Idk what to do with them

[sacred elm]

Get 60he v2 and build it with fluxes

😃 👍

[fluid ravine]

Ermmm

[cloud pivot]

you are going to have a tuff time reselling them

even the vendors themselves are struggling to sell them

[sacred elm]

sex

[fluid ravine]

Love this mouse sm

[sacred elm]

Do you have it? 😳

[fluid ravine]

Yes!!

[sacred elm]

I ordered it yesterday

[south flicker]

Whats dis

[sacred elm]

Pulsar X2 Crazylight

[glacial wind]

I can help. If you pay me $20 I’ll take the flux from you

[south flicker]

Ah nice, is it good? And how much does it weigh?

[fluid ravine]

35g

[south flicker]

Dang thats light

[sacred elm]

35g with dot skates

[fluid ravine]

37g with stock skates

[sacred elm]

Yea

[south flicker]

Got my superlight 2 pro yesterday

[fluid ravine]

[glacial wind]

Crazylight is honestly one of best just general recommendations right now I feel

[cloud pivot]

my condolences

[fluid ravine]

Indeed

[sacred elm]

Cant wait to try it out, right now im using viper v3 and it feels like a brick in my hand

[fluid ravine]

Ngl
Id choose x2 cl over Viper v3 pro

[glacial wind]

The shape is neutral enough that I can have any friend use it and they’re not going to feel bad about the shape

And 35g is plenty light enough

[cloud pivot]

been thinking that since the x2v2 myself

[fluid ravine]

Yeh

[tropic urchin]

I tried using it a bit, but I hate it on glass

[fringe quarry]

if only it wasnt that small

[sacred elm]

Same, because of the shape and weight. I also have beastx pro but cant use it on glass, because of uneven base. Super scratchy

[fluid ravine]

Ica

[cloud pivot]

its not that brutally small

[fluid ravine]

Honestly I have no problem of the x2 cl on glass

[cloud pivot]

most importantly it maintains a good enough width for up to medium-large hands to adapt to

[sacred elm]

🔥

[fluid ravine]

It's the smallest and lightest mouse I ever used and yeah it's pretty damn good for me

[sacred elm]

I tried hitscan hyperlight 2 days ago and I liked it in my hand. Crazylight is very similar I think

Will definitely like it

[fringe quarry]

sides a bit different

[fluid ravine]

Yeah they're pretty similar

[fringe quarry]

more straight

[fluid ravine]

Yuh

[cloud pivot]

straight and flat side profile objectively better imo

[fluid ravine]

Guessing I'm not gonna have to sell my Atlantis og v2 pro

Still love that mouse, like it just fits into my hands

Love this vid

maybe except pinky flare

but thats it for me

thumb flares suck

[south flicker]

Why tho

[fluid ravine]

[fringe quarry]

but many mice need you too grip too high imo

[cyan lark]

Why the nitrile gloves :squint:

[fluid ravine]

I hate the potato shape of gpx

[cloud pivot]

too high as in high up the mouse?

or high down the mouse (like trying to fingertip)

[fringe quarry]

like the distance from pad surface to the beginning of the sidewall you can grip is too big

[cloud pivot]

oh you mean laterally

idk i never really noticed that to be a problem

[glacial wind]

Oops we triggered a pc gear talk event

[fringe quarry]

bc of flat bottom and big angled section

[river nova]

Don’t know why I found this funny

[cloud pivot]

good

peripherals are boring anyways

[fluid ravine]

They should've never made that channel

[fringe quarry]

i just like to have my thumb touch the pad while gripping lol

[fringe quarry]

if only there was channel for thaz

[cloud pivot]

im comfy enough with my wrist scraping but yeah thats fair ig

[tidal frigate]

G502 best mouse

[fringe quarry]

superlight best mouse (far from perfect tho)

[cloud pivot]

best mouse of the last millennium

[cloud pivot]

spl is honestly just fine, just that people glaze it too much and logi milks it too much

[fringe quarry]

who glazes it

[cloud pivot]

you would be surprised

[fringe quarry]

whole mouse internet seems to hate it

😭 😭

[sacred elm]

[cloud pivot]

its still worshipped in a few circles

[fringe quarry]

good

[cloud pivot]

anyways i think it set out to accomplish what it wanted perfectly

a positively mediocre product

[fringe quarry]

superlight mini will be peak

[fluid ravine]

@sacred elm brought it with me to my trip
Only used it once in a internet cafe

[sacred elm]

We have same grip 😳

[south flicker]

I noticed that aswell

[fluid ravine]

I cant use fingertip for the life of me

[sacred elm]

Same

[fringe quarry]

maybe i should try a normal x2

[fluid ravine]

Oh and my dumbass used the wrong skates

[cloud pivot]

its only (rightfully) getting more notoriety in recent times because people have realized how lazy logi is being with it

[fringe quarry]

the shape is nice just thin

[fluid ravine]

Like these dot skate thickness are smool

Only good for hard and glasspads

I should've used smth else cus when I was in the internet cafe, my mouse was like sinking or scratching into that shit sorta, I don't even press hard onto my pads.

[sacred elm]

Which dots

Ah those are stock dots

[fluid ravine]

The one that comes with x2 cl

Yeah

It's like obsidian pros I heard

[glacial wind]

I wonder if x2f is 35g too, because pulsar staff member said it was 38g, but that was with huge long flat skates

[fluid ravine]

And yeah they are quite similar to my obsidian reds in terms of speed (idk the difference between the reds and pros cus I never looked into it)

[fluid ravine]

Prob 35-36

[glacial wind]

Maybe same weight as crazylight if both use same skates

[sacred elm]

how is it more than crazylight

[glacial wind]

that’s what I’m wondering

[cloud pivot]

if x2f doesnt cross 30g threshold i consider it mid for a ftip mouse

actually i already hate the shape so

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[sacred elm]

you need to try cyclone dots, they are nice

[fluid ravine]

What they like?

[sacred elm]

Very smooth

And durable

[glacial wind]

That’s some big skates though

[fringe quarry]

wtf

😭

[fluid ravine]

Can I use on glass?

[glacial wind]

I think with dot skates you drop at least 2g

[cloud pivot]

at least they cared enough to smooth out the edges

unlike fm

[sacred elm]

They are recommended for glass yes

[fluid ravine]

Mk

[fringe quarry]

only thing im kinda excited for is the zeromouse blade

[fluid ravine]

Should I buy em while I'm in Asia?

[sacred elm]

Yea, if its in stock

[fluid ravine]

Where to buy

[glacial wind]

if optimum made a zeromouse with longer sides so you’re not forced into his finger length grip I’d be keen to try the optimum mouse

[sacred elm]

no clue where can you get it in asia

I ordered from lethal gaming gear

[fluid ravine]

Oh ain't that in NA?

[sacred elm]

yea

[fluid ravine]

Aight

[fluid ravine]

Should be $4 shipping

[fluid ravine]

Oh hell yeah

[tropic urchin]

+1 for cyclones

[sacred elm]

Cyclones are op, they are smooth, durable and has decent speed

[tropic urchin]

Goated

[fluid ravine]

Alr you got me invested

Sick

Alright I'll keep that in mind

[tropic urchin]

They’re pretty fast compared to obsidian airs

[fluid ravine]

Got some shit I wanna buy

[fringe quarry]

artisan dots (for cloth)

[fluid ravine]

Yeah I got the Air pros
Pretty controlled I'd say

[cloud pivot]

artisan dots on artisan pad
