    memes aside.. you might be onto something with the bubble wrap mod..
    I imagine lower-end keyboard vendors could ship boards with lesser-quality packing materials/anti-static foam. Then ship the boards with foam cutting templates that the customer uses to shape that packing foam into pcb dampening shape!
    Higher end boards would likely still use higher end foam materials, sorbothane, etc.
    Just a thought!

    • @mal2ksc
      @mal2ksc Před 2 lety

      If they're going to do that, I think it would be easier to print the cutout directions and shapes directly on the bubblewrap, and in a repeating pattern so you're guaranteed at least one good set no matter how the print happens to align with your particular piece of packing.

    Yay! I love keyboard town. What a chill place.
    So hey - I think you're doing a great job soldering with that fine-point iron, but that fine point might be making things a little more difficult than they need to be when it comes to anything larger than an SMD component. Use what works for you, of course - but I might suggest giving one of the flat-head solder tips a try? At least when it comes to switches, my flathead tip transfers a lot more heat to the pad more quickly than my fine-point one. (It looks a bit like a slightly chonky screwdriver end.)

    The cutout on the plate that you said was for cost saving would actually probably ADD cost to the manufacturing.
    It's a piece of milled aluminum which means it's carved out of a solid block.
    So they have to mill out that section which wastes material, takes longer to manufacture and adds wear to the milling tool.
    Even if they recycled the shavings from milling out that tiny area, the gain would be so insignificant that there's basically no reason to at all.
    I mean, I don't know why else it would be milled out like that, but I can't imagine it's for cost savings.

    I just got this and I'm new to the custom scene and was wondering if someone can give steps on how to get this numpad to work? I got the switches and keycaps on, plug in and none of the keys registers to my pc~

    I have a Tofu65 with Tada68 PCB, Kailh Jade with Navy mods and Ice Caps SA, I bought a ducky pocket, took out the blues and put Kailh switches, lubed the stab and put matching Ice Caps on it.
