Title: [WTB] Gold MX Springs 55g, 62g, 65g and 67g
Post by: skcheng on Tue, 25 February 2014, 12:26:13

Looking for the elusive gold Korean springs in any weight.   Please let me know if you have any for sale, or if you have any leads to where I might find some. 

Thx,

skc

Thanks, I just PM'ed Sprit.   Hoping for some locally available gold goodness.   Want to build the wifey a clear top, gold stickered, gold sprung MX clear board.

Pretty sure you won't see the gold springs or any springs with transparent switch covers.  The stems are fairly tall, and the springs will be obscured from view.

You're right........the springs won't be visible.   Still want some to try out.   Those that own them claim great things about gold sprung switches  ;-)

You CAN see the spring, but if you put an led in the switch you wont. But I am sure when they are mounted on the keyboard it will be very hard to see the springs anyway.

It'll be even harder to see the spring once I have a nice thick PBT cap on there   ;D :D

Once I start tweaking, I like to go for maximum tweakage.   I somehow got it into my head that clears with gold springs and clear caps will look cool on the Ergo Dox.   Just need to get an Ergo Dox...
