Title: Wanted: Cherry MX Green and Grey switches
Post by: shawn o on Tue, 01 May 2012, 20:38:22
Hi, hoping to find at least two each of Cherry MX green and grey switches.

Anyone have a couple they can sell me? Need em for a project I'm trying to wrap up!

I know the DIY method but want the correct stem colors.

Thanks, Shawn

What is the DIY method? These coil springs are stiffer than black, are they not?

Yeah, the grey have stiffer spring for sure, not 100% sure about the green though. Real green and ghetto green feel same to me.

Yes, I was referring to the "Ghetto Green" DIY. Not sure how to make a DIY grey switch. Spring seems much longer than every other switch I have.

Oh I thought they both used the gray spring. Nevermind.
