WASD O-rings
« on: Tue, 13 November 2012, 19:25:41 »
I just ordered a sampler kit from them and I was wondering if those rings will work on BS and Alps switches too, or are they made specifically for MX switches?

I have tried O-rings on both Alps and buckling springs, and neither worked.

But maybe someone else could succeed where I failed!

PS - I also tried it with orthodontic rubber bands from my daughter's braces, which are even smaller and thinner than most commercial O-rings, and they were still too much.

They're the most effective for mx, but do have a slight effect for ALPS. It's a bit of a stretch to get the over the stems of ALPS switches though. I can't comment on BS switches.

I'm actually surprised no one else tried O-rings on ALPS. But then again, the ALPS market is extremely small.

If you like the o-rings, I have a 104 set that came with my WASD. I don't use them anymore so you can have them if I can borrow your Realforce (if you do buy it) for a week ^___^
