  but...
context: Relatable, I've been meaning to clean up the accumulated mess on my desk but thus far I've been distracted by trying to tune the spacebar stab on one of my boards, switching another from linear to tactile switches, shopping around for an Alice layout kit, spring swapping some switches and etc. >
  
  Process:
  
  
  Ultrasonic cleaned old keycaps (30 min)
  
  
  Wipe down plastic casing
  
  
  Desoldered the MX Brown switches (~2 hrs)
  
  
  Lubed plate stabs 
  
  
  Lubed Box Royal (~3 hrs)
  
  
  Soldering switches
  
  
  Materials:
  
  
  Box Royals: got it on sale for about $25
  
  
  Mecha set from AliExpress fro about $27
  
  
  The board feels like a million bucks right now compared to before 🤩 
  
  
  Wife doesn't seemed to understand what and why but kids seem to love the new colors. >
  
  Gives me strong Tokyo cyberpunk vibes with that colour scheme. Love it! >
  
  I agree I also like how it looks in the dark. That spacebar sold me on the set. >
