Squeaky Spacebar Fix?
« on: Sat, 12 May 2018, 01:42:14 »
This is my first post on this forum, but I have lurked for a little while.

I own a Magicforce 68 with Gateron browns. Its a great little keyboard, but since I've had it (purchased new) the spacebar has squeaked. This only happens when I push hard on the left side of the spacebar. I suspect it has something to do with stabilizer. Any suggestions? If all it needs is some lube, is there a specific brand that you all would recommend? Thanks.

Can you take the spacebar off and take a picture? Do you have key puller? Often it's because stabilizers was misaligned not because not lubed, cheapest solution is silicone grease or lithium grease.
