Post by: acidtrip69 on Fri, 31 January 2014, 15:33:09

Hello i just got in a KeyCool 84 and it has a wobbly spacebar i was able to make it a bit better and not as wobbly, but will like it to be as stable as my ducky 9008 pro g2 it has cherry stabs on both sides but the KeyCool 84 only as theses weird things you add to space bar to make it stable. I want to fix this.

It sounds like it has Costar stabilizers.  They do tend to feel different.  What do you mean by wobbly?  Do you mean a bit of rattle? If the white stabilizer inserts are a bit loose in the spacebar, use a bit of Teflon tape or very stretched clear cellophane wrap that you use for sandwiches over them before putting them into the spacebar.  Make sure the long ends face away from you when inserting (pointing toward the far side of the keyboard.). Also lubricate the wire ends that are inserted into the stabilizer inserts.
