Any of you guys got an HHKB (or any Topre I guess)? If so have you done any of the "make it a bit quieter" fuckery shown here - unrealkeyboards.com/pages/topre-modification-guide I realise that both are unlikely, but it's worth a try eh. Just wondering if it's worth the effort, and cost, before I do it YerDa Zabam fucked around with this message at 23:21 on Nov 25, 2023 |

handoferis posted:Most of the stuff on that page is okay but whatever you do, do not lube the PCB - the guy who posted that invented this nonsense and it just causes the springs to get caught in the lube and twang a bunch in a way that you can 100% feel. I wasn't able to fix this without cleaning all the lube off the PCB and every spring individually. It's not worth it. Yeah, I took one look at the PCB basting and thought "lmao, nope" Thanks for the info on the guy being a piece of poo poo, I'll get the stuff elsewhere.

I've seen covers for keyboards on etsy in the past. Just basic clear acrylic, but they came in all sorts of sizes/percentages.

I'm not a programmer or anything close, but I've not managed to gel with my HHKB, and it has been more that 6 months now. People may think I got it just because it looked cool, and had a funny name. They'd be right. Haha, I almost forgot that I bought it with blank keys (looks the coolest) with visions of "just" learning to touch type. While on a weird layout. Aged 55. And not really doing all that much actual typing day to day. lmao. I did eventually get some printed keys (some black, some white, orange space bar, it looks rad actually) but I think I'm going to sell it all and get a 75% something or other. Oh, it has the worst bluetooth sync "system" I have ever encountered. It's just plugged in by usb now as it is such an arcane mystery made only worse by the vague and baffling manual.

mariooncrack posted:They sell lube in syringes. You should be able to take the keycap off and use the syringe to lube up the stabilizer in the future. If you happen to have a syringe like this sitting around and anyone asks what on earth it is for, just saying "lube" does nothing to straighten their frown. TBH, trying to explain that it is for your keyboard will only help a little

They look like my perfect keyboard, so nice, but on top of the already high price I'd get hosed by 20% import duty too. Maybe for Christmas

First time I've seen the C64 "inspired" one. Pretty cool really, just s bit big for me sadly. If it's from Amazon, just buy it and see if you like it, they're easy as gently caress to return

I ended up just using a piece of wood. Luckily I noticed that the piece from a broken cupboard door was about the right size, but I guess you could get someone cut to size if you wanted. Blu-tac under the keyboard, and a bit of "custom cut" mouse mat, so it looks pretty janky, but it works perfectly

Here's a pic of my previously mentioned "lap plank". As promised, it looks like poo poo, but it works perfectly, and is a lot cheaper than anything I saw on the market. I like the looks of my HHKB, especially as I have 2 sets of caps so I can mix n match, but I've not really warmed to it otherwise. Gonna sell it soon and get, idk, something else.
