Hamaji random quick question what monitor u use
Should you so the mod after lubing or before lubing?
@@idonthaveavalidnamename8058 Before lubing the stabs. I tried it on my lubbed stabs, and I had to go through the tedious process of cleaning and drying the stab stems before modding, just like what was shown in this video.
Do you still bandaid mod the pcb?
@@brandoneich2412 if u want if makes the sound more cushioned and less tecky
Instructions unclear: I got something else stuck in my stabilizers
noooo hipyo
ps: did you have to cut it off?
ayo !?
👀😥
Howdee! Hipyo here
he sus tho
I need to Holee mod my sleep schedule
can confirm shoobs needs to holee mod his sleep schedule
Same
Ayo what?
Why not verified? Lol
@@JJBLPRA u need 100k subs
Ngl, it's kinda comforting to know that I'm not the only one struggling with stab rattle
dude it sucks when people don’t acknowledge it because it makes it look so annoyingly easy. it’s hard but it gets easier!
I don’t know how many times I have tuned my stabs to get it right.
@@hamajineo "it’s hard but it gets easier!" thats what she said
I've literally spent every night for an entire week trying to tune a set of stabs with little success. They are the most infuriating things, yet when I watch some famous streamers do stabs they often just chuck some 205g0 on the wires and it sounds perfect, no special mods or anything. I've never experienced it that easy in the 2 years I've been doing keyboards... :/
@@Zamm1n I'm fairly certain that sometimes they just make it seem like they got the stabs done up 100% percent perfect. The holee mod does make a huge difference tho. If you haven't tried it, you really need to give it a go.
I just built a tofu 60 with holee modded stabs, and by far its one of the best sounding setups I've done so far.
be warned: holle modding zeal stabs can result in a very mushy break in period due to the reduced space in the stem compared to durock v2s. To accelerate the break in process, I recommend extra time to be spent flattening the bandaid to the stem, and also pre-soaking it with whatever lubricant you are using on the wires (of course, with the bandaid already installed... or else the adhesive won't work)
using electrical tape instead of band aids might help with the mushiness :)
The mod gives me such a mushy bottom out that I really hate... How long is the break-in period on average?
BEEEEEEEEEEEE WARNEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD:D
thanks for the advice!
"Well boys we did it, rattle is no more"
there are no replies
There is one

@@kenji6615 do u mean “lol”
Medical tape works as well and can be less wasteful than bandaids !
My mind is blown right now, I've wasted so many bandaids!
I made the same discovery! I just happened to see some medical tape in the dollar store and realized it was the exact same material. It saves SO much time and money to just buy it that way.
In my experience it's too thin but maybe it was just the tape I used
Have you tried heat shrink around the wires?
@@the_womp_and_only9062 i haven't ,but isint heat shrink rubbery and would that make it scratchier?
holee hell I’ve been waiting for this
*punny drum sound affect*
ba dum tss
its called a rimshot I think
@@augustbrandow9989 yeah it is
*effect
What?
Pro tip: Cut the band-aid before removing the plastic covering the glue :-)
actual legend, thanks!
Holee this is a nice vid. Well explained & camera work is on point- smashed it as always bro
i tried this on my first keyboard i ever build and never was quiet happy with, but now it is actually good to press the spacebar instead of trying to hit that one sport where it sounded alright. and it was much faster than I expected. great mod
Thank you very much for doing this video on the holee mod. I thought my boards sounded decent before. But after trying it out on all the stabs for 2 of my hotswap boards (NK65 EE and a 60% alu case), my boards sound SO MUCH better! I never knew my boards could make such sounds before, its like unlocking the potential that I never knew existed out of these boards.
The holee mod removes that annoying metallic ticking sound that is produced when the metal stab wire hits the stabiliser stem when we push down on the key.
I had thought my quality everglide screw in stabs didn't produce any ticking sound. But upon closer sound comparison with my holee modded stabs. I DID notice a subtle ticking with the screw in stabs that I never really paid attention to before. After holee modding all my everglide screw in stabs, it resulted in the stab keys having a much more muted, more homogeneous sound profile as compared to the other normal keys. When I do a typing test, the entire keyboard sounds smoother, as I can't tell the difference in sound when I press on a spacebar, a shift key or a normal key. The typing sounds and experience has become so much more satisfying, that I'm buying desoldering tools to desolder all my other boards to holee mod all the stabs moving forward.
Holee Modded my stabs for the first time using your video and it was hands down the easiest to follow out of other stab how-to’s I’ve watched. The clear, simple instructions and up close footage was super useful. Thanks for the video!
Great video!
For my very loose wire, I needed to also dampened the side to side play inside the housing. So instead of putting the tape inside the housing itself, I wrapped 1 layer of duct tape around each end of the wire, being careful to keep it only 1 layer thick so I can insert the wire back into the housing.
Beautifully explained Hamaji! Very clear and well done
Hamaji, thank you so much for doing this tutorial. I tried doing this several months ago going off of just written instructions and failed miserably - so I gave up because I got frustrated. But, I decided to revisit the mod and found your video... now I cannot stop pressing my beautiful spacebar! I had a tick on the right side of my space bar, even after lubing and straightening out my stab wires. You've earned a sub from me, hands down!
Thanks for the awesome tutorial. Just followed this last night and can already hear a big improvement in my stabs!
I'm definitely trying this, awesome video!
For anyone who's trying this mod and felt like giving up because it's taking so long. Push through the pain!!!
I'm new to lubing and this mod took my over an hour and a half to complete but it was so worth it!
good advice even outside the keyboard hobby
i pushed through it for the first time and OH MY LAWD. IT SOUNDS SO GOOD????????????????????????
no, no it isn't worth it. squishy feeling and sounds barely better. Using dielectric grease is much better.
finally a high quality holee mod vid
Wow! thank you for the excellent tutorial! I just did the Holee Mod on my NK65 and you have helped me endgame my keyboard even further. Thank you! I didn't think i'd be able to get rid of that damn rattle.
thank u this really helped me it took me like 20 mins because its so hard to fit the band aid in the hole but at the end the holee mod actually solved the problem
This is my first time doing a holee mod and only your video is a guide for me. After some time that really drained my patience, finally the rattle on my spacebar was gone. I am very happy with the result. Thank you very much :)
dang, this was crispy video .. loved the clarity, to the point, the detail and of course the Holee mod .. cheers ..
this is literally what I was looking for thank you hamaji
Thank you so much for this video I did this yesterday and my Durock V2 stabs are SO nice now :) totally worth it and I kinda even got the hang of it after the 2nd stabilizer :)
Man, I was waiting for a good guide for too long. Thank you!
I've been waiting for this one! Can't wait to try it. Thanks for the tutorial!! :)
Note: The holee mod only helps with the rattle from the stem and wire. If your wires aren't balanced, your stabilizers will rattle.
Very clear instructions and images and no rambling which helps in my comprehension.
Thanks. Subbed.
Thank you. Great video quality makes it very easy to see what's happening.
Dude, thank you so much. Currently redubbing the stabs on the GMMK PRO and it's my first time modding a keyboard more that switches and sound deadening. This helped me so much!
I bought a set of the glorious stabs, and am now considering modding the stock stabs first, to see the difference (and as practice). Thanks for the tut!
Your camera work is so excellent. This video is so professional. I love your channel! Great job!
I have been waiting for this for so long
I just did it, and i'm in love. My spacebar stabilizers are better than lubed ones. Thank god hamaji posted this. My gk61 is better than usual.
Thanks for the great guide. I'm currently building my first keyboard and this helped a lot! Also, nice camera work. Hard to get clear shots with such small subject matter.
Nice and thorough tutorial! Defs gonna use in on my next build :)
Tip: go through the stem with you tweezers and apply it on the top of the tweezers, it will be much easier for you to get the band aid inside of the stem by pulling it! Pushing is a bit inconvenient
You're a mad genius!
thanks for the tup man
This finally made my drop ctrl nice to use! Thank you!
Thank you so much. My space bar was driving me nuts, I had to keep taking the stab out over and over because it would sound find after a test, then an hour later it would start to rattle again. This really helped me overcome this tragic hurdle :)
Just did this for the first time after 6 months of a rattling spacebar. It actually works very well. Thank you for this very clever mod.
Thank you so much. This changed my keyboard. The sound before and after is completely different, its like its not even my own keyboard. Thank you. Thank you so much!
I just did the holee mod on my ticking space bar. Holy cow what a difference! Possible the most annoying mod I have ever done for my keyboard but so worth it. Thank you Hamaji!
this was beyond helpful thank you
This saved my sanity. I have been in an endless cycle of relubing my stabs, having them sound good for about two weeks, and then suddenly becoming rattlecity
Sound test was so relaxing I nearly fell asleep 😂 you should do a similar video to lubing switches, that would be super useful
i had a headache with my spacebar rattling on the left side. thank you for this tutorial. it is fixed now
thank you so much, this was the first time in 3 months i was able to actually get my spacebar to not rattle
thank you so much! very much needed this :D
Nice video. Really helped me out. Keep them coming 👍👍
Hi Hamaji,
I spend days using dielectric grease, krytox, super lube, bandages etc on my Womier k68 65% board. There was always a tiny rattle, and then I saw this video and it worked. I was really impressed and I just wanna thank you for this great mod!!! Youre the best.
Very cool!
Tip for the holle mod: insert the bandaid the other way and catch it with the tweezers on the other end, and pull.
this worked a lot better for me. obviously it depends on your tweezers size.
Best stabilizer mod that I have seen on CZcams
didnt expect this to work so well
Thank you :)
the bandaid mod actually work for my spacebar
Wow amazing tutorial keep it up some of the stuff feel a little off but it’s getting better so I assume it will work all the kinks out with use
7:26 thanks dude! two out of the 4 stabs I holee modded were giving me a clicking/tactile feeling when i’m using linear switches. Was driving me crazy. I added more lube to the back of the stabs and bam the clicking was gone. amazing
wow! I've tried reassembling and relubing the stablizers a ton and nothing would fix the spacebar rattle on one side.. however the Holee mod solves it all!!!!
THANKS SO MUCH Hamaji!
Will post a sound test soon and you can be the judge of that! ;)
Thanks for the great guide! Works very well.
thanks for tet giving this idea and thanks hamaji for spreading it!
OMG thank you so much this made my keyboard so much more thockyyyyy ily vids keep up the good work
You are amazing this will be so helpful for my build I’m hoping to make soon thanks so much
FINALLY A GOOD HOLEE TUTORIAL!!!!
So helpful, thank you!
This mod really helped me out :)
just got some durock screw ins and i did this my spacebar is sounding amazing :D
Guess Who just bought the parts for his first custom keyboard. That's literally perfect timing, thanks Hamaji :D
Cool! What board are you building?
@@pretzel3779 I saw a tofu65 in e white in stock and just had to grab it. Went with Noir Rosé switches, krytox 205g0, (105g0 for the springs), deskeys switch films. I bought all three plates to test what I like best, because P R E F E R E N C E
@@fastlegente3430 tofu65 pingy as shit, beware, after modding its ok
@@benitoswagolini3896 I know, I probably will get myself some of that pre cut foam from stupid fish or something
@@fastlegente3430 i would go with aluminum personally, it sounds and feels the best on the board. i would also o ring mount it and put foam
I just did this mod and holee molee does it make a difference! The crisp sounding squeak/creak is gone! Now my keychron sounds like a $500 mechanical keyboard, Thank you!
Perfect instructions. Thank you.
This is gold, I did not even use lube or fabric band-aid. Just wanted a quick fix for my annoying spacebar. I put 2 layers of thin plastic band-aid on the stems, with no lube. The results are amazing. For just 5 minutes of work this is superb.
i'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE
Using the right bandaid and a good pair of small scissors makes this a lot easier. Also I found it easier to cut the bandaid by peeling the cover off, turning it 90 degrees and putting it back on. That way you can cut the bandaid without the scissors sticking but you can still peel off the cover since it will stick out past the ends of the bandaid.
I have trouble getting the band-aid to actually stick to the stem. Does the brand matter?
dude. this crap just saved me a bunch of time, my holee modded keychron stabs with cheapo dieletric and teflon grease sound better than my screw in durock v2s with krytox 205g0. you earned a sub and im doing this for every single keyboard i touch for now on
Funny thing is that i just finished doing my own holee mod on my cherry stabs like maybe 10 minutes before the video can out
Finally did it. It was time consuming but it was worth. I test it with band aid but it was too mushy so I ended up doing it with medical tape and it was way better!
I really hope the adhesive will stay in place 😬🤞
wow, i just did the clipping stabilizer thing and lube the wire (no the holee yet, cant find my band aid). and the difference really noticeable. big thx mate...
Just did this mod. haven't assembled the keyboard yet. The spacebar is too goddamn satisfying now.
Upgrading from cherry stabs to durock and applying this mod worked wonders!
Nice. Was literally googling for this type of tutorial 2 days ago.
Just tried on my GK61XS, just in case - it worked flawless - a bit tricky at first but even some clipIn stabs are more than okay. THANKS never tried it before ;D
Thank you. My Keychron k2v2 75% board has been amazing... except the space bar rattle. It was the only thing that has prevented the board from being perfect.
when you asked in kb-help i had no idea what holee was. had no idea it would be this good/popular!
Hey, thx for your videos. You really inspired me to build my own custom keyboard :)
Looking forward to doing this mod on the Ikki68 later
Bro your so underrated you just got a sub and a like well done bravo
Simply, Thanks ❤️
Really appreciate the guide
Holy crap thank you! I finally fixed the tick/rattle on my stabs with this.
Great tutorial, well explained thaaank you
Finally, a proper tutorial to do the Holee mod with CLOSE UPS ! I'm so glad i found this !
I HAVE BEEN WAITING ON THIS
Nice i was waiting for this vid
ty for this!! used this for my first keeb ;;
Had the most annoying clicking sound on one side of my spacebar that I couldn't figure out, but this seemed to do the trick! Thanks for the tutorial
found out about this mod from one of your earlier build videos, been using it ever since! quality content!
i also started putting a band aid strip on the bottom part also, a snug fit but i found out that its a longer lasting solution
You don't experience any mushiness or slow response from the stabilizer?
@@speaktobrett none for me at all, i use medical tape
Vid came out earlier then expected. Not complaining
OMG it worked!! Thanks! *tears of joy* LOL
I used this video of yours as a guide, and the mod worked pretty well for me and now I can't stop pressing the spacebar.
omgosh absolutely perfect thankyou.
thanks for this tutorial, really helpful. :)
