[little glen]

honestly this plate idea

i am thinking about it

if i can get some extra gaskets

[tropic urchin]

Don’t hate it @robust siren

I like the alternating look more I think but idk if your set allows that

[little glen]

are you using foam or empty

[robust siren]

good enouf

[robust siren]

alternating look?

[little glen]

the sojus look good

[robust siren]

uhh i dont think i have white tab

[tropic urchin]

How my vella is, blue back space, white / and then blue enter then white down

I tend to gravitate towards that look

[robust siren]

no white tab

[pliant tinsel]

It feels like a curse already, i got my first pbtfans set and now i have the need to get another one sometime

[fluid ravine]

I have awaken

[pliant tinsel]

Just fell in love with iron dolch💔

[little glen]

welcome to the club (but for me its gmk)

[pliant tinsel]

Heard gmk is peak

But pricy

[little glen]

thockle?

[pliant tinsel]

[little glen]

idk how to make thock uncle work

[little glen]

worth it

i have 6 sets rn

[fluid ravine]

Thunckle

[tropic urchin]

It only gets worse once you find a keeper

[pliant tinsel]

OH DAMN

[robust siren]

hey thocky

[fluid ravine]

Have you seen the new scratchy HMX

[fluid ravine]

Thats so fking hot

Permission to yoink

[tropic urchin]

If you’re reading this it’s too late

[fluid ravine]

ANOTHER ONE? WHERE

[robust siren]

which version
normal or clear novelties

[cloud crane]

https://unikeyboards.com/products/hmx-lanikai-linear-switch-factory-lubed-10pcs

[pliant tinsel]

Guys is it normal so like basically sometimes the actuation point keeps like showing that its getting pressed down, is it because of the ufo switches?

[pliant tinsel]

Its mostly with stab keys

[cloud crane]

Unlubed version after CNY

[fluid ravine]

Personally I always go with normal

But clear gives it some uniqueness

[fluid ravine]

Ooo

[robust siren]

can confirm: it is a trap

damn @calm pulsar for showing me these damn soju keycaps

[pliant tinsel]

I mean, they look nice

[cloud crane]

@cloud crane do you like mx2a scratch sounds?

[sturdy rock]

Yo gore for the knight stabilizers I don’t need to use the washers cause that’s for the 1.2 mm pcs right

[cloud crane]

When I feel like it yea

[fluid ravine]

Lmao

[robust siren]

[tropic urchin]

When it was so bad blud refuses to recognize it happened ooop

[robust siren]

what happened

[tropic urchin]

The denial of the valorant stream

[little glen]

I need that carbon nanotube plate

[robust siren]

what stream
whos the streamer

[tropic urchin]

When there was 15 ppl watching your stream in Wooting discord

Democracy prevails

3v1

[robust siren]

there was 2 watching me gamble on forza horizon 5

[cloud crane]

Did you get Er si g M , E s g Y u.

[robust siren]

[tropic urchin]

Bro just got ransom noted

[cloud crane]

Nah niche meme

[lyric nimbus]

dude i really wanna throw a pic of my cat onto my 2he

how the fuck do i make him look good...

[cloud crane]

https://youtu.be/c1yTLrVcehg
Or do something like this cat board

[crystal rose]

i designed a strap

what do you guys think?

[lyric nimbus]

embedded the creature onto my wooting

[fluid ravine]

the creature

is too cute

[fluid ravine]

though i must say this part is kinda weird

i like the idea though

[tulip rapids]

so thats his arm

and the other stuff is him trying to get the pattern in

of his cat

but youre right it could be done better

[fluid ravine]

i can see that but the separation makes the porportion looks weird

[tulip rapids]

@lyric nimbus maybe just focus on his arms being folded without the pattern and see how that looks

[fluid ravine]

is this going to be in copper as well?

[lyric nimbus]

brass

[fluid ravine]

gotchaaa
what color is the case going to be

[lyric nimbus]

black, made out of PC

[fluid ravine]

transparent or solid black?

[lyric nimbus]

transparent

i think if ur going PC u gotta make it translucent to some degree

[young viper]

I think so too

Make it out of solid tungsten next😈

[lyric nimbus]

sigh

[young viper]

Do it

[lyric nimbus]

its probably not very good manners if i decided to actually do it

[young viper]

I tried to see how much it'd take to make a single lekker tikken switch and it was like 2 grand

[lyric nimbus]

if its a human reviewing it

[robust siren]

do forged damascus titanium

would be a pita to mill

[fluid ravine]

@cloud crane made a scuffed s0ound test of my Game 1989

[cloud crane]

Sounds nice 😍

[fluid ravine]

i gotta step up my mx game icl

i wanted to use milky yelows but i already soldered them onto another pcb

[cloud crane]

Get HMX Yogurt S when they release
With Keygeek PA or HMX Ash for spacebar

[robust siren]

i should do kois all foamed up with abs keycaps

[cloud crane]

No do CF plate foamless

🗣️ 🔥

[fluid ravine]

I was gonna ask u that

[robust siren]

do i go back to 6.25 spacebar then

[cloud crane]

If you want

[cloud crane]

👀

[fluid ravine]

I like yogurt

[cloud crane]

Based 🗣️ 🔥

[robust siren]

thats the only cf plate i have

[cloud crane]

Then sure, 7u based but CF plate even more 🤤

[fluid ravine]

So far I've like Blue cheese, Sunset Gleam, Mx2a, nixies, milky yellows, yogurt

I need more

[cloud crane]

Join unikeys discord 👀

So many switches 🤤

[fluid ravine]

Can u DM me it

[cloud crane]

Sure

[amber dagger]

how well are lekker l45 v2 factory lubed?

[sly palm]

[fallow fractal]

hi what do we think about the ramune60?

[cloud crane]

Ramune cool case

Sadly GB is over

Can wait for extras tho

[fallow fractal]

is there any way to get it

I want one

[cloud crane]

Yes, extras

Needa wait tho

Until everything gets manufactured and shipped out

[fallow fractal]

I see

[cloud crane]

Best to join Geon server to receive updates so you can be pinged if there's extras

[fallow fractal]

Can I get the inv

[cloud crane]

Sure

Sent

[amber dagger]

i’m looking at the agar mini as a fun project with the most thockiest thock of all thock

but i don’t know much about how to do that, if anyone has any tips to start i’d appreciate them

[amber dagger]

keygeek y2?

[cloud crane]

Y2 do be thock

[lyric nimbus]

once im done with the build

i might get deep clacks

[fluid ravine]

ooo agar mini

what plaet you're gonna use

this oughta be a fun lil build

i agree Keygeek y2 would go well

prob use both case and plate foam

ixpe sheet if you want to raise the mids slightly

[thorn zealot]

Get the pc plate, some deep switch like the y2s u said, and use all the foam it comes with

Or wtv plastic plate u can get it with

[cloud crane]

pp plate slaps

[fluid ravine]

PP plate bebber

even though there isn't a PP plate for agar mini lol

[cloud crane]

Just get one cut

[fluid ravine]

u rite

anything for PP

[cloud crane]

😛

[stoic ocean]

Wth is that

[fluid ravine]

what the hell

wait wtf

im looking at the stabs now im even more weirded out

[stoic ocean]

It has special switches that fit into holes, so the sound level might be better, and the PCB also serves as a circuit board.

[fluid ravine]

when the pcb stands for printed circuit board

now im even more confused on how it works

as a matter of fact i dont even want to know

it's a weird layout as well

like the arrow keys are all misaligned, there's split right shift and all that bs

[cloud crane]

If it ain't H60 I ain't buying

Also Duality TKL files are open source 👀

[fluid ravine]

day 6 of waiting for keebmat restock

[cloud crane]

Thank god I can just buy taobao mats

[bronze flare]

keytok nova or ufo switches or the wuque flux switches?\

[crimson sky]

you will never guess what the "CB" in PCB are

[fringe quarry]

smh my head

[cloud crane]

[amber dagger]

so far what i had come up with is: agar mini, pc plate, y2s, keebtape. i’ll use all foam included

[little glen]

What are you planning with those

[amber dagger]

a lil 40% build

[little glen]

Pc plate wouldnt be my first choice

[amber dagger]

why not

[cloud crane]

Pc plate is fine tbh, at least for mx

[amber dagger]

it is mx

[cloud crane]

Just try first

Ye

If don't like can always get another plate

[wicked vault]

anyway to get the software to not have rbg activated on space bar?

[fringe quarry]

same as every other key?

[glossy pagoda]

You can turn the LED to black color

[wicked vault]

It only gives option to turn rgb lighting of whole keyboard down and not individual keys

[wicked vault]

Ok thanks I’ll try it

[humble surge]

new cable iz here

[chilly mural]

Doesn't look too dissimilar to high end audio cable

[fallow fractal]

Was it worth it

[humble surge]

Yeah, pretty cheap and very nice, can do 8k no problem aswell.

Was gonna go with Xray, but this was like 1/4-th and longer, so more reasonable.

[austere creek]

i assume it has a hub chip in the usb-a end

[scarlet laurel]

can you turn the rgb off

[humble surge]

Don't think so, no.
But when i was browsing, i recall XVX selling non-rgb ones that are just as "fancy"

[humble surge]

Yes it does, when the cable itself was connected, it did make a connection sound already.

Or atleast some sort of IC

[austere creek]

i mean it has to have one otherwise having 2 usb-c ends makes no sense

[humble surge]

Yeah

[austere creek]

unless theyd be 1 charge only and 1 data

[humble surge]

I think it's the former, and it supports two device connections for 8k, so both must be data capable.

[gentle lava]

Does anyone know if the Zoom64 case kit supports the original Wooting 60HE V1 with only plate-mount stabs?

[humble surge]

More kalih

[glacial wind]

you would be swapping to their plate but yeah it should fit

you'd need new stabs though as I don't think theirs is plate mount

[gentle lava]

The stabs they have in the kit you mean? That won't be a problem, as I can just use my current plate-mount stabs

[glacial wind]

no i mean as in their plate is likely screw in and not fit for your current plate mount stabs

so you'd need to both swap the plate in your current wooting and also install new screw in stabilizers

[gentle lava]

But in that case it won't support the original HE60 - if I understand you correctly - as that one only supports plate-mount stabs iirc

[glacial wind]

oh yours is the og og not the +?

[gentle lava]

Yea, the non-plus model

[glacial wind]

ah yeah their plates are all screw in. Unfortunately i don't have an og 60he anymore so i can't check but if it doesn't have the holes then it won't fit

[split night]

How do y’all wipe down metal case

[gentle lava]

I'll check, but iirc it doesn't have any holes on the PCB for pcb-mount stabs

[split night]

moist towel or alcohol

[glossy pagoda]

60HE non-plus does not have compatibility for screw in stabilizers

[gentle lava]

Thanks at least for the answer, saves me a whole lot of hassle

[glacial wind]

yeah there we go. Can't swap to their plate then

[split night]

Any mods I can do with the wooting80? Have white zinc case

Haven’t touched it in 2 years it’s just been stock

[sacred elm]

Switches #🪛│modding_faq message

[static tree]

Any recommended plate for the 80he modding kit? I know nothing of anything but would be interested in making the 80he sound softer on the white zinc case, would the play be the foam & fr4 or something else? https://torontokeyboardman.ca/products/wooting-v2-modding-kit

[sacred elm]

If you like softer sound then keep the stock PC plate

FR4 won't make it any softer, it's stiffer and louder plate

[static tree]

Oh sweet, would the foam be worth picking up?

[split night]

I have UR ice magnetic ultra coming in

[sacred elm]

There's enough foam in 80HE, so probably not

[visual sundial]

ice ultras are so good 💋

[crimson sky]

ice ultras💀

[old aurora]

guys my a key feels weird how to fix

like it feels muffled

[regal patio]

Did you lube the switch yourself?

What switch is it

[tropic urchin]

If you recently lubed it, your magnet could have lube on it

[quasi hinge]

Only place to get them?

[humble surge]

No, but Chinese New Year is about to start, so you will need to wait til mid to late march to order

[quasi hinge]

No rush, can wait

[tropic urchin]

Cant*

[chilly mural]

10 moar days

[humble surge]

More like 7, but even if you can order a set now, it won't arrive, will just get stationed somewhere.

[quasi hinge]

https://klipy.com/gifs/chinese-fortune-9

[humble surge]

https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=989371549074 heres the link if you wanna save it for later

[quasi hinge]

Cant order from taobao

[humble surge]

https://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=985078762754 (or this, which has Silver/Pink variants, but prices are slightly higher here and you can't choose a bigger pieces number)

Ahh okay then you have to wait for official site

[little glen]

you can get em on aliexpress too

[quasi hinge]

How can you order from taobao? Its all in mandarin

[humble surge]

SuperBuy

[quasi hinge]

Silver version too?

[humble surge]

No, aliexpress is extremely overpriced, you will get shafted

[little glen]

ah i didnt know they had a silver version now

[quasi hinge]

Neither did I

[quasi hinge]

Cant find them on superbuy

[humble surge]

You don't find them, you paste links

I strongly recommend reading and getting familiar with the site if you never used it before, before you order in the future.

[quasi hinge]

When I paste the link, I dont see the silver/pink variants

Only dat purp stuff

[humble surge]

What do you see?

[humble surge]

Bottom link

[lyric nimbus]

what

ws flux are all 35gf?

[quasi hinge]

Bingo!

[humble surge]

🙂‍↕️

[little glen]

another ai generated question list has hit the discord server

[tropic urchin]

35g initial, 50 is bottom out or something to that effect

[lyric nimbus]

huh ok

so is it similar to owlabs ti he in force

[tropic urchin]

Their spring is a little wider than most but they’re of the same 50g bottom out switch class

[quasi hinge]

Ty good sir

[humble surge]

No problemo

[fallen pecan]

oh yeah latest price list for fluxies, ocean whispers at the bottom

The 11 yuan one is the convention only limited edition

Clackiest flux by far

[humble surge]

Do you have the ocean whispers link?
I might get a sample the end of next month along with the greens and a few newly released switches.

[humble surge]

Thank you!

[little glen]

i kinda wanna try ocean whispers sometime

[quasi hinge]

Anyone get the silver ones yet?

[humble surge]

Not here, i was gonna, but ran out of time

I'm ordering some end of March

[quasi hinge]

Is that when they will ship out or personal timeline?

[humble surge]

Chinese New Year bro

China shuts down for the remainder of February

[quasi hinge]

Ahhhh

So if I put in my order now it will just sit

[humble surge]

and then when they resume working in the factories, it needs another few weeks to get back to proper production

[paper bloom]

Happy chinese new year

[quasi hinge]

They have some available right now, I can buy 9 boxes of 10 for my 80he

[humble surge]

Probably, i wouldn't risk it past today, only 5 more business days left

Up to you, might arrive to warehouse, might not

You won't get it either way

[fallen pecan]

too late now, try after the 24th

[quasi hinge]

Worst thing is that my shipment is on hold and I need to wait

And superbuy seems fairly simple, just create an account and boom

[humble surge]

24th will be too early, it will be congested and backordered for weeks, thats why i said mid March is more realistic

It's fairly simple, but you better learn all the details, so you don't surprise yourself.
I have at the start.

[quasi hinge]

Anything I should watch out for?

Im shipping to SEA, not US

[humble surge]

Choosing good packaging and the proper shipping lines

like i said, read and make sure it's something for you

[quasi hinge]

Oh wut

[quasi hinge]

Will do, thanks for the heads up

[quasi hinge]

Any consensus on factory lubing?

[humble surge]

Not UFOs

[quasi hinge]

for the UFO switches

[humble surge]

BUt they also don't need any in my opinion

[quasi hinge]

And ive been told you cant lube them or its really hard

[humble surge]

However if you must, there is a way to open them, just requires 2 tools and more work, someone had the link a few days ago on a video.

[quasi hinge]

The tool comes with it from the US site

[humble surge]

Thats just a switch puller

[tropic urchin]

Best way to describe it, is you’re going to fuck up the switches in the process. Shafie tried and broke his puller and scuffed 5 switches trying. It’s not worth the hassle

[sacred elm]

Not worth it, you'll damage switches and hands

They're good stock

[quasi hinge]

That is reassuring

[quasi hinge]

Since the home team is in

Any friction issues?

[humble surge]

But yeah i agree, they don't need any lube

[sacred elm]

No, they just feel tight because they are tight They're noticeably smoother after a week or two

[humble surge]

Friction issues? no, i can't say i had any. Very smooth from the start.

[quasi hinge]

Okay great

Now... silver or purp... hmmmmm

And the magnets are great?

[humble surge]

Yeah

Maybe silvers, if you want a slightly brighter RGB

[quasi hinge]

Silver matches my build

[humble surge]

I'm going with them partly for that reason, since my new case will be light build, so all light will be better reflected, so seemed like the proper choice.

[fallen pecan]

theyre selling heist switch packs plus stickers for 60 yuan lol

[humble surge]

Why now.... i needed some of those

[little glen]

a full set of purple tikkens

[humble surge]

I just need like 2-3 each

Better late than never

REAL

[left depot]

euhm wtf?

[chilly mural]

hmm, kinda want

[little glen]

probably a reseller that bought lots during the founders campaign

to get stock early

[fallen pecan]

they're board builders so they buy 500s at a time

[left depot]

im pretty sure someone couldnt have ordered that many keyboards like that to get so many

[little glen]

chinese custom keyboard community is crazy to me

[humble surge]

fr

and manus too

XVX alone, since i discovered them, i'm shocked how much they produce, and very diverse and innovative stuff

[little glen]

i mean i would know but to me it really looks like they just preordered lots, especially since i think founders rewards werent restricted to one per order this time around

[split night]

led faces north right

[humble surge]

On 80HE i know from experience it does

[left depot]

yes

besides the lil silly ISO enter key

[humble surge]

Rotated left 90*

[left depot]

it comes with a lil switch install slip as well fyi

[robust siren]

@fluid ravine notice anything different?

[split night]

tyty

[split night]

been a longggg time

LOL

[left depot]

wa?

or are you talking about yourself ;p?

[split night]

yeah

like i dont have any original packaging

[little glen]

do i spot a fitting plate

[left depot]

ah I see hehehe

[little glen]

what the helly

[split night]

unfort i only have this keeb

with the chipping white paint

LOLL

[tropic urchin]

It’s not silver I can’t see what it is

[left depot]

the white zinc?

[split night]

yup

[little glen]

my gt80 has fading ano

[left depot]

you can still send CS an email

[robust siren]

well the word "fit" is kinda of a streach

[left depot]

for warranty

my white v1 zinc is still looking clean~

[robust siren]

i can only screw in 2 standoffs on the plate itself

[little glen]

it makes it so the module doesnt fall out of the case

[robust siren]

i did install all the other stnadoffs off the pcb

now i can finally use kois on cf

holy clack

[robust siren]

theres no silver gt60 cf plate

also 6.25u spacebar is so much easier to tune

[split night]

Took 500 years

[little glen]

cant wait to strip all the switches on my board 2 times next week

[broken notch]

<@&1098943457654997093>

[little glen]

[tropic urchin]

crunch time

[broken notch]

1st

[humble surge]

It's quite relaxing, i think i will do it every month

Also cleaning it in the process

[little glen]

who gets the crunch

[tropic urchin]

or just buy it already tuned

[sweet oak]

https://tenor.com/view/crunch-gif-25354633

[robust siren]

what if kois had a white recolor

[humble surge]

Just need that mahagony brush now and it will be even more thorough

[tropic urchin]

beastx pro and kazemi glass pad

[regal patio]

My jade pro's have that

[regal patio]

Then they would be called cod

[robust siren]

@tropic urchin is it fine if i only screwed the plate to the pcb with 2 screws?

i did screw the standoffs to the pcb to support the plate from the bottom

[tropic urchin]

you're asking the wrong cat

[regal patio]

Not koi

[tropic urchin]

only 2 screws seems wild to me

[robust siren]

theyre the only ones that fit lmao

or well had the holes in the correct location

everything else was off

[tropic urchin]

im only an 80HE modder subject matter expert

and part time venom noob

[robust siren]

[tropic urchin]

@sacred elm or Arc/Thockson is your 60% subject matter experts

[robust siren]

ohhhhh backspace does NOT sound normal

but maybe its cause i havent used cf in so long

also i had to modify the foam pad quite a lot

im currently using rakka with the led pcb so no case foam

sounds alright

maybe ill swap off ledpcb in a few days to try out with case foam

[quasi hinge]

@humble surge @sacred elm any issues with the UFOs on any keys?

Someone on reddit complained about their backspace and enter key

[humble surge]

nope

mine were fine

[quasi hinge]

Okay great, thanks again

[agile helm]

guys any idea why my spacebar produces differnet pitches of feedback?

non split 60hev2

[sacred elm]

Not optimal

[robust siren]

well yeah

[sacred elm]

different pitch compared to what? other keys? spacebar will always sound different due to its size

[trail bane]

Yo chat, are we making split pom cu plate?

[broken notch]

Zero issues on AnSI for me

Nor on my split spacebar

[split night]

I don’t remember swapping switches and keycaps taking me an hour 30 in the old days ☹️

[agile helm]

i use the non split spacebar and pressing on the left sounds different than on the right

[misty sapphire]

Im not in any other keyboard communities so im just gonna ask here. Wanna make a more portable board for my 2 diff jobs so I gotta carry it a lot. Anyone know of a similar 60% with a split spacebar like the 60he v2?

[ionic breach]

cant think of any that does not require you to soldier honestly

[misty sapphire]

solder as in some wires? i draw the lines at chips onto a pcb

a cap or resistor i can do

[ionic breach]

all the switches

[misty sapphire]

its within my skillset but not something i really want to do

god i want a split spacebar 80he

[humble surge]

also
Knobs when
GMK Selene when

[misty sapphire]

id unironically buy a new one the day it gets announced.

[humble surge]

I'm doing just that aswell.

[misty sapphire]

arent knobs coming this year?

[humble surge]

🤷‍♂️

[misty sapphire]

i got a streamdeck+ for all my knobby needs

[crystal rose]

anyone know how i can get a custom strap made with my own design? I tried looking up places to get them made with zero luck

[misty sapphire]

aliexpress / etsy maybe?

[crystal rose]

i tried but they are like only allowing text and stuff and not like full custom

[misty sapphire]

could try messaging those custom text ones if they are willing to do a fully custom one. just be ready for it to be expensiveee

[crystal rose]

like, i tried messaging a service and they said it would be $375 🥀😭

like bro wtf

[misty sapphire]

yeah makes sense

i tried to get a heatsink made for a project and i got qouted a couple thousand multiple times

found a chinese factory on alibaba to make it for me for 175 USD

[crystal rose]

the strap probably takes like $4 to make 😭

Maybe less

[misty sapphire]

custom design has to be made. thats time, hourly wage. has to be put into machine and made

thats time the machine isnt making other things

id expect minal 100-200 USD on the cheapest places

[humble surge]

Or just knit one yourself (or however the process is called)

[crystal rose]

but like i have the full design

[misty sapphire]

could always find a nice granny to make one for you ig

[humble surge]

Real

[crystal rose]

if only i wasnt broke

[misty sapphire]

job

[crystal rose]

if only i could get one

[humble surge]

I'm broke for this month aswell (with a job), dw :D

[misty sapphire]

so am i (i have 2)

[humble surge]

🙂‍↕️

[misty sapphire]

here you can work in a supermarket stocking shelves from 14 and up.

but i still want a 60hev2 split spacebar ngl

[humble surge]

But i designed that sort of that way, due to CNY i ordered some things earlier and spent a large sum

Although i did get fcked on my January paycheck too

[crystal rose]

if only i have a way to get to the supermarket and i dont have any time for anything

[misty sapphire]

everyone here has a bike + evening shifts. if theres a will there is a way. but it wont be fun and sacrificing all your nights for a shitty poor wage is not fun

[humble surge]

Just ended 5 nights, only the last day i actually managed to sleep after :D

[crystal rose]

If only i was everyone

[misty sapphire]

i work monday till saturday now. but sometimes i can get half a saturday off

thankfully no more evening shifts

[humble surge]

I have 6 days 2-3 times a month now

Changed from a 6+2 format to regular 3 shift rotation, but mandatory saturdays in addition

So less time home and less pay

[crystal rose]

Like im just tryna get a $5 strap 😭, i fucking hate Tariffs

[untold wigeon]

guys can please someone help me with a costum keyboard

im looking for a good 80% case alu

[misty sapphire]

monday till thursday im on my new internship im required to do for my diploma from 08:00 till 16:30 and at friday/saturday im working my old job

[regal patio]

Maybe your stabs are ticking?

[regal patio]

For the wooting 80he you mean?

[untold wigeon]

i want to build my oewn keyboar

[regal patio]

If yes than there is the kbdfans gt80

[untold wigeon]

and i need a good 80% case

[regal patio]

MX or HE

[crystal rose]

gt porche 911?

[regal patio]

I regret clicking on your profile now xd

You have vencord RPC thing

And probably if I click the watch button I will get sent to a rickroll

[crystal rose]

how do i turn it off 😭

[untold wigeon]

yes

[regal patio]

I bet

[regal patio]

Than there is the gt80

[untold wigeon]

iprobably use the wooting 80 he plate

[regal patio]

Great case

[crystal rose]

itbis a rickroll

[regal patio]

Ye knew it

I also have a RPC like that lol

When I'm on pc

[untold wigeon]

is there a more minimalistic case? like it looks good but there are details which i dont like

the golden thing at the left top

[misty sapphire]

the clip for a strap is removable

[regal patio]

Cant you remove it?

I dont have that case so i cant confirm

but i think so

You just need a screw driver

[untold wigeon]

or what if i get a 60%?

can i play the most games on a 60?

smth like world of warcraft?

[lyric nimbus]

if u need arrow keys/f row

do not get a 60%

[untold wigeon]

but there is no cool case for80%

thats the problem

[lyric nimbus]

yeah that stinks

u could get like

gt80

[agile helm]

what does that mean

[vocal sapphire]

what is the general consensus on the Wuque Flux vs the Gravastar UFO? price is no object, I prefer lower thocky sounds and I don't mind heavy switches. I wanted to get the AstroLinks but I've seen online that they are considered cheap and outdated. I you think there is a better switch than the ones mentioned please share

[chilly mural]

makes for a nice bee catcher

[quasi hinge]

Ordered the silver Gravatars

They will go well with my Project Gravitaur documentary signed poster. Soon to be released

Still not out tho

[little glen]

Damn got the og poster with old release date?

I have some concert tickets with original venues before they got moved

😎

[quasi hinge]

I think im the more jealous one rn

Wish I could have seen Age of Disclosure in theaters

Wanted to feel the energy

[quasi hinge]

Hope they still offered you the seats etc

I got grandfathered in

It‘s all standing anyway

[quasi hinge]

Legend

[sacred elm]

was it same price?

silver will look nice in your build

but you never see them so whatever :D

[humble surge]

No, that listing is a little bit more expensive

but not terrible

[quasi hinge]

Thank you, I want to stay true to the whole idea and Lazar described the sport model as a 'grey pweter' color

[little glen]

my AE packages better not get stuck at customs

[quasi hinge]

Its why I chose the color for my case so having these more on the silver grey side stays true to the authenticity of the account.

Ive had the og kom poms from the milk store and the magneto's purple is getting old

[humble surge]

Also if anything, the Silver Mist will reflect light better, making it brighter than the purples

[quasi hinge]

When I first saw the purple, my first thought was that I wished they made them in silver/grey.

https://klipy.com/gifs/you-cant-run-from-your-destiny-face-the-truth-1

And since everyone vouched for them, this is my last try lmao

[little glen]

ufo also fits the theme

[quasi hinge]

No doubt

[little glen]

i have the ttc horse switches on the way

and dcf

[quasi hinge]

THANK YOU

🖖

[little glen]

i have one more switch on my list i want to try but its unavailable for me atm :(

[quasi hinge]

What is it?

[little glen]

kailh ice cream HE

[quasi hinge]

Ive been out of the loop since I finished this build

[little glen]

tho i hear that a new wave of interesting switches is coming after CNY

[quasi hinge]

Im back for abit again

[quasi hinge]

Im amazed they still can keep pushing the limits

[vocal sapphire]

where did you find the silver Gravastars ufo for sale?

[little glen]

lots of development is ahead of us

we are like 40 years behind MX

[quasi hinge]

although at some point its diminishing results then its just sound, spring and feel

[quasi hinge]

Super buy

from this link

[glacial wind]

stability on a whole has kind of hit a wall overall

[quasi hinge]

https://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=985078762754

[quasi hinge]

Enter into superbuy

[glacial wind]

like right now ufo are most stable but you literally have to break them in because their housing is too tight lol

[little glen]

cant wait for cool new innovations in sound and feel now that stability has been maxxed

[quasi hinge]

We are there already?

[quasi hinge]

Oh no haha

[vocal sapphire]

do the silver ones show better rgb than the purple? what price did you get them for?

[glacial wind]

basically everything is A top, S bottom is where i think most manu will sit and be happy with stability

[quasi hinge]

I should let a friend borrow them for a while 🤪

[glacial wind]

there's some cool stuff coming up with sound modifications though

[harsh dove]

The switch stability chasing has finally died

[little glen]

i mean if you just keep hitting the keys for a bit it should be fine

[little glen]

we should go back to duhuks fr fr 🐧

[quasi hinge]

So these might feel like the scratchy jade maxes lol

[glacial wind]

like now I think it started with horses, but more brands going to start filling up the spaces inside the switch with extra bits and pieces to alter sound

[fluid ravine]

PUH PUH PUH PLATEEE

[harsh dove]

lol right, I’ve been chillin with tikkens and Owlabs ti

[glacial wind]

i'm curious to see how creative brands get with how they fill in the extra space inside switches

[fluid ravine]

Tokens

[little glen]

someone will make a foam filled switch

mark my words

[quasi hinge]

Yeah I figured, its like a marketers dream lol Its all subjective and they can come up with some hilarious new way to sell a 'new' sound. Plus people always want something new...

[little glen]

we need kbdfans roller HE

[little glen]

excited to see how they turn out for me

[glacial wind]

i've gotten used to my bizarro personal rig though

now the weird sound mix doesn't even get noticed

[little glen]

interesting

what is it

[glacial wind]

cf plate + cerakey keycaps + ttc horses

the zero synergy build

[fluid ravine]

50% fiber glass when

[little glen]

interesting

oh yeah sno did you see my idea for a crazy mod on 80he

[glacial wind]

the cerakey legend printing has held up so far at least. No visible wear yet on the legends

[robust siren]

thats right me boy

[little glen]

make a custom plate with tabs where the gasket comes out so you can cut out the big gasket pieces and rest the board on just the silicone blockers

[glacial wind]

although i still notice the misalignments or minor mold differences with cerakeys due to ocd

[little glen]

take out the sandwich entirely

[robust siren]

cf koi soundtest coming soon

[little glen]

mod compatible with any case

[fluid ravine]

[glacial wind]

wouldn't that cause a lot of wobble with the switches

[little glen]

full fiberglass bottom, carbon nanotube stem, forged cf top (idk what im talking about)

[fluid ravine]

[glacial wind]

Every day I notice the uneven gaps between some keys

[little glen]

i dont think so

[glacial wind]

[] has the biggest gap

[fluid ravine]

It's so round

Social distancing brackets damn

The " and enter

They might as well kiss

[little glen]

yeah that spacing is weird

[glacial wind]

i'm still waiting for my ceramic case, then i'll try out the full ceramic set for awhile

[little glen]

clip clop ceramics

horse with ceramic hooves

[glacial wind]

i'm still not sure if i should be worried that the last tracking update for my case was 7 days ago it departed a facility to service provider

[little glen]

that keyboard would be great for smashing glass windows

[glacial wind]

but normally i takes 2 or so weeks for random stuff to come from china so i'll worry about it in another week or two if it still doesn't show up then

[chilly mural]

just hope it arrives to your place before CNY

[glacial wind]

i was tofu 3.0 has such a high typing angle

i would have been maybe interested in trying it out as my main case with a full copper build if it wasn't 9 degrees

[fluid ravine]

Clap switches when

[fluid ravine]

9.??

[little glen]

how much would it take to make a wooting modding channel designed case

[glacial wind]

yeah it's full enthusiast typing angle pilled

[quasi hinge]

cerakey, how are those

[fluid ravine]

Elevate those wrists

[glacial wind]

they're fine, but alignment isn't the best so anyone with ocd will never be satisfied with these keys

[fluid ravine]

[glacial wind]

it does make sound interesting though, but it's definitely not ideal combining it with cf like me

[quasi hinge]

And ?/ is slightly off centered or is that me

[glacial wind]

a lot of keys are very slightly uneven, because even if the stem is aligned, the sides of ceramic don't dry even sometimes

so you kind of just deal with non straight lines all over the set

[quasi hinge]

Fair enough

[glacial wind]

i'm still fighting urge to buy pbtfans virtuoso, that set is so clean

[little glen]

that is pretty damn clean

good thing that there's no purple gmk set i am interested in rn

[chilly mural]

very nice, but doesn't seems to be my kind of keycaps.

[little glen]

i'd be broke

[glacial wind]

only thing is i'm partial to sets that have spacebar profile 1.25u now

and it's kind of hard to find

may buy another set of tutkey game1989 in the purple variant just because it has 1.25u

[little glen]

i do still have the mictlan sets i ordered coming

got the skull profile caps, spacebars and the artisan

[agile helm]

how does stabs tick?

[glacial wind]

yeah mictlan is nice to have even if just the spacebar kit

because you can pair it with other gmk black sets for split lol

throw that in with black snail and you have a true split spacebar set

[little glen]

i mean i have the mictlan base set alr

[glacial wind]

i only care about my split compatibility nowadays lol

[quasi hinge]

Its fantastic

[robust siren]

@fluid ravine i dont like 6.25u spacebar sound

on cf

[quasi hinge]

I tested out my squadmates and its great for the game we play

The key binding combos are amazing

[quasi hinge]

With the 80he, I need to use the bottom row alphabet

Little more awkward

The split is amazing

Hope they do an 80he version

[glacial wind]

every day i pray for a 80he split version

[robust siren]

crap now i wanna swap back to 7u..

[fluid ravine]

spacebar kinda awkward....

[robust siren]

i know

its all foamed up

[fluid ravine]

we dont like foam around here

[fluid ravine]

7u is da weh

u need new stabs

[robust siren]

that means disassembling everything

[fluid ravine]

someone get this mans some knighs v4

[robust siren]

[quasi hinge]

If they do a V2, they should at least try, Id pop that split pcb in a second.

[robust siren]

well fuck

guess im taking apart the keyboard again

[trail bane]

Gosh

[regal patio]

My nova's arrived :)

[trail bane]

I've just removed the Orings from the top mount mounting points on the holy80

Damn, it's sounds good

nothing special about them

Shit

Figured, they said some whole "tuned magnets" blah blah blah blah

[robust siren]

theyre weaker than the og magnets

iirc

@fluid ravine back on 7u spacebar

[fluid ravine]

how is it

[tropic urchin]

@fluid ravine I have new Bella plates in the works

[fluid ravine]

[tropic urchin]

With how wild standard venom is without the plate foam bells and whistles think both would be gud bets for marbly and even with foam prob

[fluid ravine]

oh fug the foam

drop the adds so i can calculate laa

[tropic urchin]

It’s all gud

[fluid ravine]

i forgot

[robust siren]

oh my god

[tropic urchin]

Nah you chillin

[robust siren]

THIS SPACEBAR IS ASSSSSSSSSS

😭

[fluid ravine]

LMAOOOOOOOOO

SKILLLLLLLL ISOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[robust siren]

why is ts always against me

[fluid ravine]

it likes me more

bakka issoo ?

[robust siren]

i give up man

it is what it is

[fluid ravine]

send it over

i gotchu

[robust siren]

nuh uh

[fluid ravine]

[robust siren]

how do you fix spacebar top out sound

bottom out isnt bad but top out is horrendous

[tropic urchin]

Gore gotta give up tuning and just buy it pretuned or give it to the expert

[fluid ravine]

i'm the expert

[harsh dove]

We can only hope

[fluid ravine]

we shall manifest

[harsh dove]

7u 80HE would be endgame

Everything else in the bin

[fluid ravine]

insta buy

take my money

hmmm usually i'd say its the switch..

#1399828834706260110 message

[young viper]

My spacebar is evil, for some reason so matter what I do the left and right sounds different

[robust siren]

is it really just like dump the entire stabilizer into lube

im starting to run low on lube

[fluid ravine]

i dont think the lube is fully the problem

honestly i think yikb stabs even dry sounds fine

unless the wire is just f'd up

but the switch can most likely influence both top out and bottom out

[harsh dove]

I barely use any lube on my stabs personally

[fluid ravine]

yea^

[tropic urchin]

Ngl after trying 70a oring, this shiii sturdy

PP plate could be the play with it

[fluid ravine]

like in my neo
i know its a mx board but bare with me
i use the yikb 7u in there with barely any lube cus i ran out but the switch really caries it as a whole

[fluid ravine]

i juant 70a

[robust siren]

theres literally no ticking when i place it flat on my phone

[tropic urchin]

Recommend

[fluid ravine]

[fluid ravine]

im out of opportunity to buy

[tropic urchin]

Debtson?

[fluid ravine]

im either stupid or im just stupid

hmmmm

[humble surge]

🤔

[fluid ravine]

(the alt and menu keys next to 7u spacebar on the right)

maybe im so used to seeing like 65% and actual 7u tkl im tripping

[robust siren]

im lost

[fluid ravine]

oh-

[tropic urchin]

From that lighting angle I do kinda like the full blues now

[fluid ravine]

i do agree but how do we fix this spacebar..

take the foam out

it sounds so dense

[robust siren]

i dont have any 7u wires

[fluid ravine]

[fringe quarry]

stretch the 6.25u

[fluid ravine]

LMAO

idk i swear that foam really makes the bar sounds dense its weirding me out

[tropic urchin]

Imagine not foam maxxing

[fluid ravine]

@tropic urchin did you make this?

[tropic urchin]

I stole someone else’s

I forget where I found it

Why

[fluid ravine]

well sometimes there are cracks that doesnt need to be filled

[fluid ravine]

wondering why they dont use the 1u key next to alt gr

[tropic urchin]

I figured it was just bc there wasn’t any room

[fluid ravine]

shi i wouldve left it alone

[tropic urchin]

The right side really is kinda irrelevant for right alt/control

[fluid ravine]

i wouldve left it empty or use 1u instead of another 1.5u

[robust siren]

i aint gonna lie, idk what changed

[fluid ravine]

it sounds less dense

but yeah i see what you mean

with the whole weird top out thing

do we call pops?

[robust siren]

i dont have any other 7u wire

[tropic urchin]

Don’t worry, Wooting won’t make it anyway

[fluid ravine]

cus i use to have this problem back then and i just gave up and bought new stabs

[robust siren]

i guess i can swap switches

[fluid ravine]

true...

[robust siren]

uhh

dcf?

[fluid ravine]

jus try anything and see

you're using friction pad right @robust siren ?

[robust siren]

no

[fluid ravine]

what u using

[robust siren]

gt-60 silicone gaskets

[fluid ravine]

woa

wait

hollup i need to see the gasket points

[robust siren]

HOLY SHIT

IK WHAT I FORGOT

FUCKING CASE FOAM

[fluid ravine]

LMAO

[fringe quarry]

[fluid ravine]

aw

kbdfans did a good job choosing to not put the gaskets at the spacebar

how nice

[robust siren]

there is one there tho

[fluid ravine]

wtf am i looking at on their page then

[fluid ravine]

oh

OH

i forgot

top mount

nvm

disregard that

anyways

[robust siren]

do i take it out

and yeet it

[fluid ravine]

ye

[robust siren]

[fluid ravine]

i always avoid using gasket points at the spacebar

it messes with how it sounds

all the time

[robust siren]

bru

[fluid ravine]

i do the same in my neo65

[robust siren]

ive been using it since i got the case

[fluid ravine]

i leave it empty

[robust siren]

[fluid ravine]

well try to see if it makes a slight difference

"slight" btw

[robust siren]

i have to unscrew the case to get it out

[fluid ravine]

oh

i need to look into the gt60 a bit more

there's a lot i dont know about it apparently

my ass thought it was a ball catch

or was that the gt80

oh yea it was gt80

[robust siren]

it shouldve been ball catch instead of screws

[fluid ravine]

[robust siren]

gt80

[fluid ravine]

id be damn

[robust siren]

we will be adding all the foam back

okay

[robust siren]

foam maxxing

[fluid ravine]
