Title: An Absolute Beginner's Guide to Switches
Post by: ThereminGoat on Tue, 09 June 2020, 16:07:04

Hey all,

This newest article is a bit different than normal. Instead of my typical reviews, I've done a complete one-stop guide to switch and switch internals for new people to the hobby. Trust me, it covers everything a beginner needs in 18 pages, 7000 words, and 24 pictures.

So if you know anyone new to this hobby or are a bit confused yourself, please stop on by and give it a read.

I like it, and I learned a lot about Cherry style switches, but it seems like that's all it's about. I didn't see anything applicable to Alps or buckling spring or anything like that. I suggest to change the wording to "Cherry style switches" or something like that, and a request for one on other types?
