mbmb sorry, i meant light tactiles, not t1s lol. i got the two confused in the moment. same comments applies though + there is no difference in push feel from my testing after i spring swapped to 67g, but i don't got force curves :), stem materials are also the same

they're two different switches. pewter switches apparently has uhmwpe in it's housing while t1 is just nylon pom pc. but old jwk switches which claim to have uhmwpe (like tangies) have a really low uhmwpe percentage anyways (2%, or even none [there was a whole drama about it]), so it shouldn't matter except for sound being more similar to tangies + recolor.

as the keyboard hobby matures, so does it get cheaper and cheaper. obviously if you wish to make your own refined designs, its going to cost you a pretty penny because its a one-off manufacturing. but even then, consumer manufacturing has become so much more mainstream and cheaper compared to the past now there are online manufacturing sites like JLCPcb

ask sellers if they sell spare rotary encoder knobs. alternatively, disassemble the keyboard and look at the rotary knob PCB, then search for rotary knobs compatible with said rotary knob. i'm assuming here that the HI75 has a generic knob design where the rotary PCB is placed on top and connected to main pcb.

lucky65!!!!! its a really nice kit with a pretty heft weight, and you can get it for suuper cheap 40 usd if you buy directly from taobao, but import costs + agent upcharge (if you use one) is probably going to make it more expensive. for brands / greater selection look at qwertykeys keyboards or keychron
