Recommended Build from our friends at Mech.land
We recommend the following build adjustments for a slightly louder, but much crisper sounding and more bouncy / flexy typing experience:
No plate standoffs except the two next to the knob
No PORON foam under the PCB
No PORON foam on the bottom case. You can use a little bit of polyfill if you'd like a slightly deeper sound.
No PORON stabilizer pad under the included stabilizers.
205g0 in the stabilizer housings and stems and XHT-BDZ on the stabilizer wires.
Lubed and filmed long pole linear switches (like Durock POM Linear, WS Onion, Penyu, Graphite Gold etc.) at the stabilizer keys, or at least the spacebar
