Title: Where does one buy MX Clears, (switches only)?
Post by: KuhnTang on Tue, 25 December 2012, 01:53:18: I want to buy some MX Clears, and the springs to make either (Panda clears) or (Ergo clears). I tried searching briefly, but my search didn't yield any results.

On a side note, does anyone have experience with either of these? Are they hard to make? I like the Browns, probably my favorite switch right now, but I would like just a little bit more of a bump.

Thanks

2) you swap the springs in it with your brown/blue/red springs OR
2) you buy another pcb-mounted board with brown/blue/red switches, take the stems from your mx clear board and put them in instead of brown/blue/red stems.

They feel like heavy blues, without the click. They don't feel like browns.
