Post by: jackcalico on Sun, 27 October 2024, 14:05:02

Which stabs would you recommend for 1.2mm PCB (no shims)?

If we're talking Cherry MX-compatible...

1. Plate-mounted.
2. Screw-in stabs.
...

Are you using a 1.2mm PCB because you need thickness for a thin layer of foam in-between the switch and PCB?

Hard to go wrong with TX stabilizers.  They get my vote.
