  • @blazingfire365

    For others I recommend changing the stabilizers. Durock, C3, or Zeal stabs are fine. Depending on the plate, you might need to sand off the durock stabs a bit to make them fit but changing the stabs help a lot in your overall experience. Mind you this is a 75% so you only need 3 2u and 1 6.25u stabs. There's a bunch of guides on youtube to lube and install stabs so I recommend checking it out.

      @@arispokony2944 Haven't tried them so I can't really say. Though someone from the Philippine mech community mentioned that there are issues with some of the switches (also confirmed by the vendor) as some of the top housings are overly tight. If you intend to buy, please make sure to buy a lot of spares just in case it does happen to you.

    One question, how did you configure the RGB light? did u use QMK or the glorious software itself?

    hey i know this video is pretty old, but do you think that these ws1 keycaps will match the new e-white gmmk pro case?

    I copied the exact same build and it's freaking amazing. Only thing is the stabs for the spacebar rattles a little but everything else rocks. My first keyboard build and i love it

      Get the Durock V2 stabs, my GOAT stabs got sticky 3 months in and relubing didn't work either. Got the Durock V2s and they are such a huge upgrade, no rattle whatsoever with the minimal amount of lube

    Great video @Frank. Could you do a comparison between this and the Keychron K2? I know they are in quite different leagues, but I am wondering if the trade-offs from something like the keychron k2 v2 are worth it

    hey i’m gonna build this keyboard like you did! i was wondering when buying key caps from the website, do i have to buy the base package and a different one to get the other black key caps?

    I think the board will look so good with transparent keycaps
