Title: Filco to Ergo Clears
Post by: MKB on Sat, 30 July 2011, 01:36:35

When upgrading a Filco tenkeyless to ergo-clears.  Which switches would you start with if you could pick any switch?  Would you switch all of the keys or just some?  What would you do for the spacebar?  If you left some untouched which color would you pick to go with the ergo-clears?

I don't think it matters, but if you are looking to buy a board with the express purpose in mind of doing ergos, I would assume you should order browns so you have the springs.

I went for a harder switch for the spacebar, since I tend to hit the spacebar pretty hard. In my case, I put in a MX grey switch

What would you do for the spacebar?

Gray stem + standard clear spring (more or less a standard clear switch).
