With the date of the sale for these rapidly approaching, I thought I'd compile my full thoughts into a review. See the link below to read it.

Don't quite understand the broken in stems part. So when broken in the stem wobbled a fair amount. But then you filmed em and somehow that reduced stem wobble. That's not how films work. They reduce housing wobble, but not stem wobble.

The way I see it, stem wobble = housing wobble. My logic is probably incorrect, but just bear with me.

The switches "broke in" and got smoother, the same way novelkeys creams do. Hope that answers your questions

Could be wrong but I'm guessing housing wobble compounded the stem wobble, hence, after adding films, stem wobble appeared reduced.

Ah. Ok. Yeah. That makes more sense. I mean bad stem wobble is a concern. If it's only average with bad house wobble, I'm ok with filming.

There is virtually no wobble after filming, and the sound definitely improves :thumb:

Well darn. Sounds like your basic Durock switch.  It’s fine.  I like
Them a lot.  Just unfortunate that you have to film them.

Well, $6 for a regular durock is a bit over the top.

Is it $6 per switch or per 10 switches?

Per 10.

They cost $.55 at durock if you buy a small quantity, if you buy more than 10000 you get them for $.4 ea without even haggling, though I hear you can get the price down below that.

And if you cut durock out and buy directly from JWK, you'd probably get a better price still.

Might go with 3203 instead of 205g0 for these since it looks to be like they're pretty smooth stock.

Lol better off buying Durocks at this price if you have to film them for them to even be decent.

I thought this wasn't produced by JWK?

Right in the OP:

"These are NOT ordinary JWK linears; HHHH worked with JWK and modified existing molds to his specification."

*sigh* These aren't durock switches. Anyhow, the sale starts tomorrow so you'll finally have a chance to try them and formulate opinions.

The group buy thread is pending approval right now, and I will link it when it is approved. Thanks everyone!  :D
