Bought the Optimum x Wooting collab instantly, first mechanical keyboard, moved from years of membranes school lenovo shitter. Keyboard matches 95% to my pc case that's amazing.

ohh the only thing id say is to upgrade ur mousepad brother
even if u dont wanna pay alot, just get a bigger mousepad that can compliment ur aim
id obviously suggest getting a high quality mousepad since they arent even expensive compared to any usual mousepad (talking abt artisan ofc)
artisan is quality, not usual btw ^
fluid wedge
yeah I am gonna do that, moved to new house. the older big logi black mousepad and the lg c2 still there (need to replace both so yeah )
fluid wedge
yeah yeah I know this mousepad shite ahahah I dont like using it either but you work with what you have
fluid wedge
tho problem is that mousepads from abroad cost a shit ton in shipping
marsh ermine
getting 2 artisans here next week so thats gonna be fun
fluid wedge
even if their main price is good then you get slapped with 100$ shipment
marsh ermine
tho problem is that mousepads from abroad cost a shit ton in shipping
with artisan you can get 2 mousepads for the shipping price of 1
fluid wedge
artisan doesnt ship my country rn
marsh ermine
i paid 100$ total for 2 artisans in their biggest size
fluid wedge
cause war and stuff
marsh ermine
aw that sucks man

btw i just wanted to lyk that ur F key is in the wrong spot
its supposed to be moved one to the left, if thats intentional i apologize
fluid wedge
its supposed to be moved one to the left, if thats intentional i apologize
yeah yeah you right, I fixed it, now 2 spaces betwen notches ahaha F. I misclicked alot with it in the wrong spot ahaha. placing the keycaps was the most nightmare thing about building this keyboard by far didnt know which keycap went to which row. took a long time and I think some keycaps rn are still in the wrong place but lazy rn to fix it
marsh ermine
yeah yeah you right, I fixed it, now 2 spaces betwen notches ahaha F. I misclick...
😠im glad u got it sorted out
is there no like "hints" at the bottom of the keycaps either?
if not that kinda sucks, wish they'd put an arrow or something to show which way is the right way up
fluid wedge
nah nothing outside an Optimum small logo on the space
the right way up is the easiest to do cause I match the angles with the space key which with the Optimum symbol is easy to tell of course
but yeah different heights for the different rows per the cherry layout, very hard to figure out which keycaps goes where
marsh ermine
thats understandable.
didnt your keycaps come sealed in the "right way" tho?
like when you opened the keycap set wasnt everything how it shouldve been on your keyboard?
fluid wedge
Maybe it did, but I messed them thinking everything is the same ahaha
Basically big F
marsh ermine
LMAO
honestly i wouldve probably done the same if i didnt know of your issue right now
fluid wedge
Yeah didn't know rhat cherry is a specific order to keys across rows
And they look exactly the same in the box
Only thr top row is unique enough to recognize cause it's taller
marsh ermine
best you could do is take a look at the cherry profile from the side (a picture of it on your desired monitor) and then from there see what 'looks right' on your keyboard and what also feels right
fluid wedge
Thats what I tried
marsh ermine
Only thr top row is unique enough to recognize cause it's taller
bottom row should be unique enough too because theyre bigger keycaps
fluid wedge
Tried to literally take a keycap and match it on the screen

Thsts for sure not talking about legends

LMFAO

Still was difficult, then tried to order 5 keycaps in the order showed online then match each keycap to the 5 also difficult. Needed to kneel on floor to get a side view

what if you took your keyboard up to your eye and like "aligned" it to spot the difference
does that make sense at all?
fluid wedge
Yeah I'd di that with final result and a few were off
Tho was tired two days ago to fix
marsh ermine
ah okay
fluid wedge
Still tired to do it now ahahha. Would do it later
marsh ermine
take the ones out which are off (on every row) and from there mix and match until you get it right
i understand how frustrating this entire thing is, i personally wouldnt be able to use the keyboard properly without the keys being in their right positions (rows)
fluid wedge
Yeah it's fine now cause most are in the correct place
