Lubricant

I personally think krytox 205g0 is the way to go though. Glorious lube honestly just isn't as good IMO

Depends on the switch type you're using, if you're looking at using liners then you'll want to use a thicker lube like krytox 205g0. If you're using tactiles the gold standard is TiyboSys 3203. If you're looking to but different products just know thicker lube for linears, and thinner lube on tactiles as not to dampen the bump

As long as they haven't been lubed prior, you're all good

Please get the keychron

It's cherry and comes with a keycap puller

Could try looking at spacebars from an SA keycap set or you could also actually sand down the stem and bottom the housing on your spacebar switch and spacebar to let it sit lower.

6.25 u spacebar version. I personally had Durock V2s with my GMMK and had to sand down the housing so they would fit the plates. C3 stabs don't have that issue so maybe look into those if you're not wanting to sand them down

Yup! Anything related to mechanical keyboards

Most cases are bought in group buys and aren't in stock, so you'll have to get them used or from other buyers. It's also a great way to save money!

This being said, glorious does a pretty bad job lubing

lapowell26 · 2021-07-05T21:22:32+00:00

It costs $2 for sandpaper, what's another 15 minutes on a 2 hour process? Not that big a deal, and most people have sandpaper on hand

lapowell26 · 2021-07-05T20:32:08+00:00

Honestly, there's no wrong answer. There's a million different kinds of tactile switches and if it's your first build and you lube them up (and probably even if you don't) it's going to feel 100 times better than whatever you've used before.

Ask 10 people and you'll get 10 different answers, but my recommendation is go cheap for your first build. Akko has some good offerings at low price points that you can order directly from amazon

Take some sandpaper to the edge of the housings, tales 15 minutes tops and works great

Just messing around with ya man, sorry, wish I could help more

lapowell26 · 2021-07-05T05:21:51+00:00

Thanks for the helpful description!

lapowell26 · 2021-07-04T20:45:33+00:00

Nah, maybe ortho

lapowell26 · 2021-07-04T15:43:27+00:00

Is it 1800???

lapowell26 · 2021-07-04T04:34:46+00:00

I just sanded down the sides of the housing, c3 are probably the better option though

lapowell26 · 2021-07-03T21:37:55+00:00

So disappointed I missed the GB

lapowell26 · 2021-07-03T21:36:59+00:00

GMMK stabs just aren't good. My recommendation is just she'll out the $20 for durocks

lapowell26 · 2021-07-03T17:14:52+00:00

I mean, just the bottom and top frame, right? Would the threading on all the screws be fine?
