Title: Looking for Plate-Mounted Cherry stabilizers
Post by: pink_panther on Tue, 15 December 2015, 12:24:12
I'm looking for standard 2x cherry plate-mounted stabilizers, and am astonished to learn that they're rarity on internet. Only place I've found to buy them is  Ortholinear keyboards http://ortholinearkeyboards.com/cherry-stabiliser (http://ortholinearkeyboards.com/cherry-stabiliser), but the shipping cost is too damn high ($30 to Europe). So, could anyone share their sources, or even sell me some of those?

I only like to use PCB mounted stabs, plate mounted stabs can be difficult to find. Do you need plate-mounted stabs or is that your choice? Another option is mechanicalkeyboards.com, you have the buy the wires and clips separate but they have what you need.

Yeah, I need plate-mounted ones. I'm building a custom keyboard, and I'll probably skip the PCB. Are you talking about theese clips? https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=317 (https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=317) Because they look more like costar stabilizer standard
