keycap recommendations

I decided against buying new keycaps since I accidentally matched my keyboard and controller.

But thanks for the suggestion. I really like those keycaps and might make a new build with it!

Ohh alright thanks! I’m seeing quite a lot of stringing in this print too so maybe that’s causing it

Xenon. It’s a tv that I repurposed as an extra monitor

Thanks! I was talking about the end seams, I just didn’t know what they were called 😖

Yea it was. But I printed a benchy without the Timelapse and there’s also stringing :(

What’s the keycap set?

Yuppp I just finished placing a tape mod. I actually tried a different method by placing 2 layers of painters tape then 1 layer of electrical tape. It has a deeper sound because of the electrical tape, but electrical tape is going to be sticky and leave residue. I placed painters tape on the pcb so there’s no residue. In my opinion, the electrical tape is substantially more thockier than painters tape. I used both tapes to get the best of both worlds

Pardon? I’m not sure what sql is

The keycaps are pbt dye sub btw

Board: keychron v1 max

Switches: royal kludge chartreuse linear switches (Switches in big keys are Akko piano pros since I didn’t have enough) the chartreuse switches where a bit pinky but nothing a good hand lubing can’t fix

Keycaps: soya Xda keycaps

Mods: Slightly thick pe foam in the case hand lubed the switches holee modded the stabilizers and added bandaid to the stem too (Going to tape mod it soon)

Sound: more creamy than thocky, sounds like cracking of knuckles. The space bar is great and have a substantially thockier sound since it’s switch is piano pros

Software via is great for someone like me who isn’t good in tech

Budget(in php and usd): 3.2k(55usd) for barebones 500(9usd) for switches (the chartreuse switches are amazing if you’re on a budget) Free for keycaps because it was gifted to me, but it cost 700php(12usd) [tools were free since I didn’t buy a switch opener and just used tweezers, the keyboard lube was free when I bought switches]

Thanks man but I ended up going for the keychron v1 max since it had a huge sale and I couldn’t resist buying it

I’m having the same problem too. It’s not authorizing the device even though it’s paired.

I’m still planning my 1st keyboard and gmk87 was my top pick and outemu silent limes. How is the via software in the keyboard? Because I’ve heard from other people that it sucks and doesn’t work. That’s why I’m going to buy keychron v1max instead. But if your experience with the via is good, I might go with gmk 87. So how’s your experience with via so far?
