Thank you very much! Already ordered some gateron milky clears and I will try to lube them with your method.

homemade = I used cooking oil + tooth pick to apply.
(Not suggested by the pros here, but it has held up)
In the future, I will use real lube, but I wanted results that day!
Oddly, it improved those cheap stock reds so much.
Order diff switch type tactile/linear and then decide what you like the most. Unless you already know.

Nice! You mentioned homemade lube, how did you make it? Or did I understand wrong?

I put in Durock Ti tactile in mine and I love it. I didn't even lube. I left my number keys cheap stock reds but lubed with homemade lube and they work well. I'm going to replace the spring with a slow spring with more initial pressure needed to activate. I couldn't type on the cheap reds that came with the board. It felt like pressing on air. If i ever try better linear switched in the future I will use a slow spring with heavier onset.

I’m not trying to be rude but wouldn’t that screen your referring to be “behind” the controller?

I really wanted to join that GB but I couldn’t wait til April / June as I’m a child and need immediate gratification. I’m really excited to see how it all turns out though!

I found it on Xianyu, and it was dirt cheap. The seller even included some other stems.
That being said, there wasn't any brand mentioned on the Xianyu listing. Some people did mention that they might be "LCET" stems, but I can't confirm that myself.
I did find something similar on AliExpress once, but I don't know if they're the same.
In any case, they're pretty decent stems imo. They're pretty smooth, and very satisfying to use. Only downside being that they have more wobble than usual.
Overall, a pretty awesome upgrade over stock brown stems, and they sound great in Cherry housings too!

Nice! Bought some MT3 Apollos that should be here mid Jan. The razer keycaps are fun though. Not the best quality, but fun.

Thanks! I purchased it directly from the YMDKey website, shipping was 4 days via FedEx (I live in Southeast Asia and they ship from China)

It’s actually not that hard to use. It has around 7 layers of which you usually only use 3 or 4 when you are using ä, ö, ü. Only down side is you are restricted in typing speed since typing too fast can activate certain combos or change layers. You are basically stuck around 25-30 wpm (from my experience)

I recently finished my GMMK Pro.
- GMMK Pro barebones black
- Polycarbonate Plate
- Durock V2 lubed with Kryotox 205g0 (original stabs were so overlubed that I had to manually pulled it up to "bounce"
- Gateron Oil Kings
- Honey and Milk keycap set from Amazon
Really happy how it turned out soundwise and appealwise

I know you all love layers & can use them for your stuff, but I'd love to see someone who does productivity work like docs & coding try to not bash their brains against the wall using one of these.

very nice! I like the black plate with this keycap set. My brother also had these keycaps on a QMMK pro and I really liked how they felt together.
