Hi all! For the sound test portions of the switch, I understand that it may be very difficult to pick up differences (now that I'm watching on my phone). Firstly, headphones will help. Additionally, for each switch, you WILL hear the standard sounds of a switch going down, and returning back to top - you want to pick out the little differences - essentially "listening between the lines". Remember, if it sounds weird to YOU, that's good enough to put aside

Very helpful Video. It left me wondering why you are swapping the springs of your switches. Is it just because you prefer the weight over the stock ones, or is there an additional advantage? You mentioned tolerance. Are tolerances usually worse on stock springs, or are there manufacturers that are known for being worse than others. Maybe it could make for a good topic for a seperate video if there is more to it.

@Strider1Wilco 4 месяца назад

Weight preferences. What your fingers enjoy trying on. Tolerances. What threshold within a certain weight you want variance in. ±5 or even ±15 on budget switches. Ping. You can just bag lube with 105 and a few generous drops. In the end you get something that feels consistent to type on, no noise, and with tight tolerances that gives you an extremely satisfying experience.

Incredibly useful video Simon, thank you so much❤️

@Havsabas 6 месяцев назад

If you were doing this with stock cherry switches (with the hilariously noisy springs) would you still cherry pick pre spring-swap?

@Blacksimon 6 месяцев назад

Sure, just as long as you always compare to another cherry switch the whole time Cherry picking doesn't need to be perfect, just good enough

Hi Simon, before I do the cherry pick switches, do I need to clean all the pre lube from them or just leave it be ?

@bluehornet 6 месяцев назад

I have a few switches on my board that feel off, wish i had spent the time to go through them first.

@Casper0123 6 месяцев назад

I am currently using Vertex v1. I decided to cherry pick them after seein g your videos. I saw you mentioned about tx springs in other video. even though they are not mx cherries still worth spring swap with them?

@Blacksimon 6 месяцев назад

For sure, since v1s are factory lubed, I don't even bother cherry picking them, I just swap the springs and they're good to go

@md.imamulislam7 6 месяцев назад

Wouldn't it make more sense to spring swap before cherry-picking switches?

@hucklejoko4838 6 месяцев назад

I have the same question

@Blacksimon 6 месяцев назад

If it helps/makes it easier, absolutely, go for it I generally don't bother as I'd open them up to lube later, making a lot more work for me vs a quick 30 minute cherry picking session

@md.imamulislam7 6 месяцев назад

@@Blacksimon Makes sense. I usually spring swap, use the switches for 4-5 months to break them in, and then lube them, so spring swapping before cherry picking probably makes more sense to my workflow than yours.
