He was just using the bare switches, and the sound was this weird mix of plastic clicks and spring pings. It made me realize I've been chasing the 'perfect' sound for so long that I forgot to just listen to the board itself. Anyone else ever try typing on a bare switch build?
I was lubing some switches for my first 65% build last weekend and knocked over the 205g0, it got all over the PCB and plate. I cleaned it up with isopropyl and a toothbrush, but now a couple keys feel sticky. Has anyone fixed a lube spill without taking every single switch apart again?
I see everyone saying you need a clean, dedicated bench for builds. But last month in Bangkok, I put together a full custom with just a basic toolkit on a wobbly table. The noise from other travelers actually helped me focus, and now I think insisting on perfect silence is overrated. Why do we act like a messy space ruins the fun?
