Could be the lube job. I personally don’t trust prelubed switches. A lighter coat or thinner lube probably would have done the switches some good, although glorious switches aren’t that great to begin with. If you want a heavy tactile switch the Boba U4t’s are great. For linear the Gateron Oil Kings are nice and have a pretty good factory lube job if you don’t want to bother doing it yourself.

This is a problem with the switch plate, not the switches or keycaps. The tolerance on the cutouts needs to be a bit tighter, and it'll hold them in place better. Some modifications to the source svg that was used to cut it should do the trick.

I use switched USB hubs, and an HDMI switch, as kind of a reverse KVM, with my setup.

A traditional KVM will hook one set of controls/monitor to multiple computers.
I need the opposite.

I have one computer which serves two separate rooms, with the cables punched through the wall.
Connected to that computer I have three monitors (one in one room, two in the other), two keyboards, three mice, multiple controllers, cables for Rocksmith, driving controls, headsets, etc...

I am able to turn all of those things on/off with switches in each room, so I'm not having things connected that I don't need at that moment.

I bought this with the full intent to use it, but eventually got it and thought that the grey-ish color scheme was a bit too similar to the GMK Dracula that I also had. Ended up selling it so that I could get Botanical keycaps to go with an all-white board to diversify my portfolio a bit.

Hope the person I sold it to made good use of those caps!
