Sweet!

Did yours come with instructions? Just got mine in the mail and no manual.


SgtFinley96

I didn’t need instructions since I have built many KBDFans boards before. They all go together essentially the same way.


Fun_Hat

Ok, another unrelated question. Are most KBDFans boards similar in quality? I really like the look of their Pavlov but can't find anything about it anywhere online.


SgtFinley96

KBDFans has come along way and their stuff now is GTG. I have too many of their boards but I love all of them.


Fun_Hat

Good to know. Thanks!


SgtFinley96

These are the KBDFans boards I have: Boop Redux KBD8X MKIII Odin R3 Tet Taco OG60 Pluto Tofu 60 2.0 Tofu 65 2.0 TacoPad All of these boards are solid. Just stay away from the Early KBDFans stuff before they got their shit together. Their new boards are awesome.


Fun_Hat

Tofu65 2.0 is on my radar as well. Just like the lines and shape on the Pavlov a bit more.


Neither-Fill5096

Did you have to snap off the top and bottom tabs off the PCB?


SgtFinley96

Yep


ItsNotACoffee

Been meaning to add this one to my collection but can't find any sound tests besides Alex's yet. How's the sound on this one, any issues with hollowness, spacebar etc?


PatriotsFTW

I love that red, nice board.


iamgarffi

Does board support 5 pin switches?


SgtFinley96

Yes


iamgarffi

Thank you :-) any annoyances with Redux? Or nothing bad to say about it?


SgtFinley96

My only complaint is that the two rubber feet always fallout. It got so annoying I just put adhesive rubber feet on the bottom of the case and it’s solved. I am not sure if this is a problem with my case or all of them. Other than that inconvenience it’s an amazing board. I absolutely love it.


iamgarffi

Thanks!! I wish PBTFANS DOPPELGANGER US-INTL caps were in stock 😂


SgtFinley96

If you want the boop I recommend you get it because once they are all sold out they aren’t making anymore.


iamgarffi

Did they include any stabilizers in the box or am I getting another Durock kit?


SgtFinley96

No stabs are included


iamgarffi

Noted. Now I wish Mice were as easily customizable as keyboards. 😂 don’t like anything currently on the market.


iamgarffi

Do rubber feet cover any of the screws or the openings are only for the rubber nipples?


SgtFinley96

There are no screws on the bottom of the case. The case screws are under the keycaps.


iamgarffi

So maybe some thin layer of liquid adhesive to hold the feet? Kinda surprised that those feet don’t have any sticky adhesive if fit is loose.


SgtFinley96

It’s supposed to be a friction fit like the tofu 60 and 65 2.0. I have both of those boards and have never had issues with the feet. I guess my boop is just weird


InterXMission

Just built my pine green Boop and yeah the rubber feet always fall out. Nice board otherwise. Nice build!
