Ergo Clears. More likely to end up going 55g rather than 62g.

Ahem.

Minimum is 55g I think. 62G still fine. If you lubed it feels like browns.

Any size you want, from 24 all the way to 108 (104?) keys.

Can even have a pseudo- Quickfire TK by getting the Lightsaver v2. Like me. Endgame keyboard.

Said many times. Lightsaver is best. Can get TK number of keys, and only slightly bigger than a TKL. Personally, my endgame keyboard.

Heh... the infamous halfway key. I believe it is misaligned stabilizer stems coming from the molding process in PBT. That and the weight (!) of the fully PBT cap making it hard for the spring in the keycap to bounce back. Obvious solutions would be to:

1. Use a thin o-ring (not optimal)
2. Use a small round spring. The mod is in my archive in reddit. Reply then I'll show you how it looks like. Basically, just bigger than your switch size and long enough to reach the keycap.
3. Change the spring in the switch. This one have to do some de-soldering.
4. Remount the stabs.
5. Send SP an email and ask for replacement.

p/s; The reason I'm sure it's the PBT is because the Taihao set doesn't have this problem. I'll be keeping this set on.

Partially true. PBT spacebars tend to warp a bit.

Looks like a custom 60% with blockers for HHKB layout. Estimate would be around 2k?

Yup. Slight warping on the PBT process. Confirm will happen with Cherry stab keyboards.

Custom?

Cherry stabs + thick PBT spacebar = disaster mostly for me.

So far, almost all needed some form of modding.

No go for 77 keys. I basically need my function rows (MMO and work needs those), so I won't be doing myself any favours if I cut those off.

Confirm costar stabs no have this problem, but my cheapo costar keyboard will squeak unless I lube the mofo like I'm planning to go... nvm this is a SFW forum.

Desolder only needs 5 minutes of your time. No balls do it bring my house next weekend (this weekend not free). I lube and mod your stabs also for RM5 per cluster. I'd do it for free but I don't want you to have wrong ideas, so I must charge. I will do clipping, lubing (high performance lithium automative grease) and pampering for your keyboard.

ALWAYS lube everything. Bloody ghpad taught me my lesson well. Lubed cherry stabs feel divine to press. Even better than costar if you ask me.

Also, what news of le Raindrop? I'm painting everything blue and white in anticipation.

Ya, sorry. Wasn't looking at Dolch, just that my previous experience with SP's DSA profile caps are like that.

Nonetheless;

I use Lithium grease. Normally you can use it for automotive purpose, but I was browsing ACE hardware that day and saw it was going for RM8 for the whole tube instead of RM 20+. You can use it for many things other than lubing, but I like this one because it gives the best performance I've seen so far.

Application is harder because you need to apply some on a cotton bud.

Buy one tube and you'll thank me later when stuff in your house need greasing.

I'm using this. RM 8 because the cover is cracked in ACE hardware. Apply using cotton buds.

It's organic grease, eco safe and non-toxic so it's good for plastic applications too.

My ergodox is here.

In other news; my ergodox is here.

456gt is limited quantity bro...

2k can opt for Orion like 016 said, or Lightsaver.

If you're really up to it, try getting the ergodox also (I think you might wanna source yourself at this point). I might be getting another teensy board later for experimentation once mine is up and running.

Aih... my ergodox left hand project fail to take off... still trying to troubleshoot

Trolololol!

Some people like it, some people don't.

As long as you happily make an informed decision, then I don't care. Still get ridiculed by me though, so YMMV.

Time to go custom.

Or follow me DiY in geekhack.

My left handed ergodox is ready. Just need to learn how to program the firmware to make it understand there is another hand.

I think that with the right tools, you can make your DiY better than commercial product. Commercial products are driven by tolerance, cost savings and mass production so they will lack the customization and the attention to detail that only a handmade product is capable of reaching.

Of course, for me, the process of tinkering with my stuff and seeing how to bring it to the next level is more fun than using it myself, so DiY is the hobby.

Same here. One of my favourite keyboards use rubber dome also.

No la... I not tuhaojin yet...



Might be letting go my "rubber dome" after my ergodox is completed... PM me la is you are even mildly interested.

Using the laft-hander for dota now.

Trying to extend the thing to a full double-hander, but hard to make it at the level I'll be satisfied with.

Here's the picture of the hacked L&R hands... basically they're connect with two RJ45 cables. Both are hard-soldered on. I plan to make some changes to that technique so that I can detach the right hand.

Also waiting for raindrop/granite to arrive. 99% sure will end up with granite on this one.


EDIT: MX clears are great for Dota, although biggest challenge right now is to get used to columnar layout.
