Hey rockstars,
So I'm really intrigued by dirty-dome-swapping and I'm thinking about swapping out the domes in my FC660C with 55g domes, using a new RF as a donor - and I've got a couple of questions:
1. What resources would you recommend to help guide me through this fun exercise? I've dug around and found these:
- White Fire Dragon's FC660C teardown video:
what a beauty this is! Awesome video thanks WFD should prove very helpful. Any gotchas I should look out for while dismantling this? My main concern at the moment is the top half of the plastic case. That looks pretty flims-dogg and held on with tabs rather than screws. Additionally, check out the 5s after this bit right here...
t=894 it's
arousing.
- Khaangaaroo's RF "Topre Dome Swapping" thread as found here:
http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=37248 and the corresponding lovely photos
http://www.khangfixesit.com/2012/11/topre-keyboard-dome-swapping.html - Have also got in touch with Khaang directly too as he seems to be well versed in such a mod.
- Ekw808's HHKB 55g-S modding thread:
http://65.111.241.205/index.php?topic=40185.0 Another gem
Any other helpful ones anyone can point me towards? muchos gracias amigos!
2. Would anyone be interested in me writing up a report/how-to on this mod? I'd take pics as I go and regurgitate as much of it in as much detail as I can into a thread. Will probably do this to some extent anyway, but if there's some really interested souls out there I'll put in a bit more effort.
If anyone has any other tips (even if it's just 'don't break anything') please feel free to chuck em up. The more educated I go into this mod the better I think
Thanks in advance for any info,
Cheers!
