Yeah you guys are right gazzeW & hbherionbob are the same people or at the very least he is definitely one of the people who make gazzeW go if that’s a business name. The gazzeW PCB I got was just bought off a r/mm user that lives in PA, not from anyone claiming to be/be from gazzeW.
I found some pieces of milky acrylic I had put away in some drawer and saw an opportunity to upgrade my RoMac macropad a bit. Using a Dremel I cut, carved and drilled the acrylic to fit as a middle layer and enhance the underglow RGB strip I had already added. Learned a lot in doing this and will definitely do an upgraded Mark II version when I’m exchanging the ProMicro for a Proton C.
Finally built my E6.5 & am now typing on my first true custom!
Specs:
Holy Pandas (MD) with Halo Clear stem & 70g TX springs.
Switches lubed with Tribosys 3203, springs lubed with TX’s synthetic paraffin oil.
GMK screw in stabilizers, clipped, & lubed with Krytox GPL205 G0.
MK ultra 65% plate foam.
Gasket mounted.
So far so good, this thing is a beast! Loving the feel of the gasket mount, it definitely makes for a much quieter typing experience vs top mounting the plate. Surprisingly though it’s not as cushioned or flexy as I thought it would be from the gasket mount. Although the fact I went with a brass full plate probably accounts for that. All in all I’m in love with this board, the only complaint I can level against it is that it still hasn’t gotten the promised VIA support. Still it’s simple enough to program it through the QMK configurator & QMK Toolbox, so no real points off there. Given the quality of the finished product & smoothness of the GB I wouldn’t hesitate to jump on another one of Exclusive’s boards in the future!
