Title: [WTB][US]Cherry PCB Mount Stabilizer Set
Post by: RavenII on Fri, 20 March 2015, 14:41:25

Hello all, I was looking to see if any one had a set of PCB mount stabs available. I'd get them from Gon, but that shipping....ugh. Anyhow. Any help/direction is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

What are you calling one set? Like how many keys do you need to stabilize and what size keys?

I'm assuming 1x 6.25 and 6x 2.0

Yup, exactly as fknraiden said. Actually it's for a 60% so a 6.25 and 5x 2.0...

What's the 5th one for? I thought you only needed 1 6.25 and 4 2 for shift, shift, enter, and backspace.

Ohhh, right. I keep thinking caps needs it too.

I've got the 2x but not sure about the wire for 6.25x

I've got a set from one of these keyboards: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=69863.0

The 6.25x spacebar stab wire is one of the bent type though. Not sure if that matters.

Is there a reason why one wouldn't want to use a bent bar? I'm using a nerd 60 with Gons plate also...

Looks like using PCB mount stabs with a plate and bent wire causes issues. https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=60789.330

If you're using them without a plate I'm guessing it will be fine as they came off of a PCB mounted board without a plate.

Might have more luck in a few weeks when the stab GB finishes shipping

Ah, yes, that would suck. Thanks anyhow.

I might wait it out. I know IMSTO sells them, but I'm not sure about the quality.

Ever find out if you had the 6.25x wire?
