Mike is honestly a great guy. Met him for the first time in person at a Florida mini meet a while back and he has been nothing but a helping hand with my trip down the Alps rabbit hole even after destroying his inbox with annoying question after annoying question. <3 u Mike

Have you checked out my group buy for newly manufactured AK-CN2 switches?

Edit : what are these caps ? Is that Alps Winter or however they're called ?


I have! I've considered grabbing some, and still might. The GB ends tomorrow I believe.

Also no the board is kinda Frankenstein'd tbh. So all ...

Few changes to my daily driver, I wish there was a way to reproduce all the various Alps switches of old as I would love to have more custom alps builds in my collection.

@DocNoc: You have discerning taste in keyboard switches! SKCM Brown Alps are indeed interesting (and very heavy).

When I first tried Brown Alps, they were in an IBM 5140 keyboard, where they seemed agreeably tactile but not too heavy. However, I then got a custom 60% with Brown Alps with a ...

Yeah I have looked at most of Haata's graphs, super interesting stuff. Like I said above, I also believe that the tactile switch plate is the main contributor here with regards to switch characteristics, specifically the tactility. That being said, to say the spring plays no role in this would be ...

Yeah I understand that and how the tactility is attributed to the switch plate in brown alps, but I'm curious to see how lighter or heavier springs might effect that tactility.

I have been looking everywhere but can't seem to find any info on people spring swapping the stock spring in either Brown or Orange alps. Can anyone point me in the right direction if I may have missed it, or inform me if you have personal experience?
