วีดีโอ

thanks as always oak! I actually really like inks on alu/stiffer plates like cf a lot too and honestly haven't thought about doing anything for 500 subs LOL if you have any cool ideas feel free to lmk

lemme make a list in order rn of most to least liked for all the 60s ive tried/owned, so currently in my opinion from most favorite to least: Nue, VP, Korn/drop in o--ring, KC 1/60, Fukuro, Ladybird, Midway60, and the Martingale being my least fav. its super close with the Kibou Fukuro since they're both top mount 60s but Fukuro edges it out for me just on looks alone. Ladybird looks more no frills but sounds a bit fuller than the Fukuro tho imo

​@@chenyz great write up, seems our preferences line up lol. Plateless/half plate supremacy with o-ring second.

make tkl with numpad instead of nav cluster meta (I don't even use numpad)

happytonio

its okay bro you made it up for it big time with the current banger boards you own

thanks as always dude! yeah way happier with the natural sound that I was able to get out of this build. also I’m usually not a flipped spacebar fan too but in regular orientation I get a weird ticking so I’m sucking it up and using it flipped LOL

I got the unc sleeves on 😭

topre so yum

literally dude! you don't even feel that much of the stiffness so it makes sense to me how some custom topre builds just run brass plates

i second this

bossibly

the best type of silence

fav part of the topre experience fr

dome be nice asf

when i have more money maybe (i love you)

appreciate it brotha

honestly no you really don't need to leaf shroud if anything I've been moving away from doing it. the mod does completely get rid of leaf tick in browns and other tactiles but the tactility of the switch gets reduced and the modded switches that are used the most basically become linear and I can feel/notice the inconsistencies. I've gone back to only lubing the back of the leaves

bro how are you so fast the video hasn’t even been posted yet

yoooo! from what I've heard the Wooting is solid for gaming if you can take full advantage of the HE technology I don't really have full knowledge of how to tho on the technical side. sorry to hear about your discord too, you can re-add mine @ chenyz

vp so good its up there with my goat 60s

maybe this is why the keyboard moves to a new spot on my desk every night without me touching it, its the SUS bottom oml

bro is in the throws of topre LOL whenever you do come around to mx, new vp plate will be hella fun to try out

@@chenyz how'd you know lmao, only been using my fc660 and orion v2.5.

natural progression of the hobby goes towards topre haha im starting to get it too since im borrowing my friends sho s60 rn and im enjoying it a ton

@@chenyz waiting for my pendulum to swing back and to enjoy cherry browns again lol. Got too many boards with them. I do want to touch the high end of topre, but alas, need funds

it is indeed sir you kinda cooked on this one

appreciate you cheny. you among others who took the chance on me will be eternally appreciated!

gotchu homie appreciate all your work and effort for making a board ive been throughly happy with

tyyy

wait til I pull out the mx blues on brass build

hits so much more different than the other builds I’ve ran

yessirrrr this one’s probably coming with me to the next meetup

go for it dude, I absolutely love the combo any and every time I run it on a board

no problem thanks for the kind comment!

thanks homie

thanks man! yeah so I got the PC plate cut by Hype Keyboards and he modified the file so that the spacebar switch actually has contact with the plate and the switch isn't just floating / sitting plateless. I can probably ask him for the modified plate file if you want it as well just lmk!

@@chenyz it would be so great if I could get the adjusted plate file. I have been dabble with millmaxing the pcb, and now realized the same thing with the spacebar switch. I love cf plates and am planning to get one and test a bunch of switch out to see what would be best. However, it is a bit wonky with the spacebar switch being plateless tho.

I hear you dude, my PCB for the Fukuro is millmaxed as well. with the stock plates you can pretty much only use a cherry switch in the spacebar since its its one of the only switches that's snug in the PCB without plate support lol. I unfortunately don't have the adjusted file myself, but I asked Tom from Hype Keyboards who did the modifications if he still has the plate file and he said he does! super nice guy who's been cutting my plates for the past couple years highly recommend him. Here's a link to his Discord so you can hit him up for the file or get a plate cut: discord.gg/GsvmbCTguW

@@chenyz it's so crazy that utube have not showed me the notif again... just a quick update, I cut a cf plate myself with tons of flex cuts (inspired by the thong cf plate from kbdfans), implemented the plateless spacebar design from the kohaku plate, popped in some browns with nk cream top, and it does sound loud, bassy and better than the original plate design thinking of having another flex plate cut like this, but still have not determined the material yet, any suggestions?

awesome build man CF slaps for sure! I have a CD player myself too but haven’t gotten around to filing any tests with it. If you want something similar to CF I think your best bets are either alu or FR4

def can't go wrong with either for both boards

I really liked how this config sounded at first but after re-listening a bunch it just sounds a bit thin to me that’s all. I have a way better config that I’ve been loving way more coming up

​@@chenyz ah interesting, will look out for it. Have you heard the news? Fukuro R2 is happening (sometime)

@ I did see that! Some of the colors looking awesome like that dark green. I might pickup some extras for my unit

​​@@chenyz I want a green HHKB unit of that so bad 😂 would have a home for my GMK Taiga finally. That or just a generic DCS set

it'd be a perfect fit for the board and I am indeed a jimcuh simp but ehh I've been happy enough with JTK FC living on the board

it do be creamy

mr foamz

one of my fav long poles after being lubed and filmed

I thankfully did not experience any cracking from the clears, but those stories are probably true. My set of GMK Demon Sword is pretty loose after being used a lot which is the only reason I used the ergo clears with it. The ergo clear stems do have bumps/small nubs on them to keep keycaps mounted on securely and were still hard to remove afterwards. If you have a Geon trimmer, I'd highly recommend to trim them before using them with GMK, I took a risk and got lucky that nothing cracked.

I just might

gotta satiate the spending addiction lmao

I bought them off a friend, but I don't think it was the unlubed variant like how Geon offers dry MX2A blacks. there was a bit of factory lube/oil on the stems that I wiped off before applying my own lube

indeed it is

@@chenyz What is your exact position on the globe. I will be on my way shortly.

thanks! YT algorithm works in mysterious ways lol

sure 10 robux or the v bucks equivalent of that
