Title: I "diy'd" a switch
Post by: samsv2 on Tue, 03 August 2021, 20:54:39

So, recently I had ordered akko rose red switches and some gateron yellows to fiddle around with, as Im still in the process of learning this wacky world of keyboards.

So I thought hey, I have some extra switches, so why not frankenstein some of these switches.

_{... to be honest, its just a stem swap ...}

The V key is the stem swap

The A key is a Gateron Yellow

The F key is an Akko Rose Red

There is a whole subreddit called switchmodders for this.
