It is actually a mixed of switches that i have extra lying around ...
bottom is using faker panda (nylon)
top is faker green emerald (PE)
stem is akko red (POM)
spring i used back the akko spring (53g i think)

more or less it is a linear switch with not much of tock sweat.gif

also i managed to whip up the alphabets only since it is enough for that portion only

Anyone have experience fabricating custom plates?
I recently request for quote in shopee to fabricate carbon fiber plate for the M3 TKL, the price was RM180 fabricating + RM40 for material cost, total RM220. Aluminum option is RM50 for material cost.

there are some cutters on taobao that offers a much more cheaper service

Very true. Wallet is definitely getting thinner.. lolx
But I did got a different shopee vendor to quote for a Aluminium plate for the M3. They are saying with powder coating, it cost RM42 including everything. I have placed an order for it to try it out.

Speaking about plates, i just receive my forge carbon fiber plate. i'm really liking the sound as they sound so close to aluminium but still has the charateristic of the twill carbon fiber plates

most people commented forged cf plate is mainly for aesthetic. the sound and feel are the same as cf plate.

do you mind sharing information regarding the seller/cutter and the kit that you put this in?
*
i would disagree with you regarding on the "mainly aesthetic". To me while i have made for few boards from 60% to TKL,
they all have different tone compare to CF. My first experience with it was with the nazare, so i went on to make more so i can try on more mounting styles. They all have a different tone to normal cf base on my experience.

er it's not me that said that, e.g., https://www.reddit.com/r/mechmarket/comment...n_fiber_plates/

that's why i'm curious about the kit that you put it in that gives you different sound and feel, since you already compared it to a normal cf plate.

right, different boards produce different sound and feels. however the question is whether forged cf is different from normal cf on the same board.
*
Yes, i tested with one of the more dintinguish board the Typ65.

Config 1 :-
Forge CF
Soldarks
Top Mount

Config2 :-
Normal CF
Soldarks
Top mount

Config3 :-
Forge CF
Soldarks
Gasket Mount (epdm gasket)

Config4 :-
Normal CF
Soldarks
Gasket Mount (epdm gasket)


After testing them with Soldarks, the bottom out sound tend to have more mid tone over the normal CF. The Normal CF sounds muted to me, maybe normal CF ain't my thing. But i think the best explanation is Alu and CF made a baby(Forge CF)
