Full of tricks - my first GH60 keyboard assembly summary

Everyone is worthy friends, everyone, ah, the new semester is coming, so happy (it is strange) ... before a holiday through a brand of crowdfunding, into a cherry blue mechanical keyboard, is the following goods, placed in the bedroom There is also little chance of playing games, typing, and usually staying in the office, only going back at noon and night.

The first contact with the blue axis keyboard can not be stopped at all, naturally when typing, even if not open the computer always want to press a few times on the keyboard, experience the pleasure brought about by the kind of mechanical structure. However, when playing a game, it always feels awkward. The first is because there is a sense of passage. When the character is operated, there is no finger press to instantly feel the handy feeling of the character. The simple point is that the trigger is not straightforward, and the second is The triggering pressure of the green shaft is very light, and it is always careful to use it, but it does not dare to press hard. However, everyone knows the game, and there are keyboards.

After using it for more than a month, I eventually chose to hang out on the free fish and gave it to other people. After that, I've been looking for the next goal, and then the GH60 has entered my eyes, small and exquisite, self assembly, these two points are very attractive to me, but the disadvantage is that there is no keypad and independent arrow keys, I play the game is The arrow keys to move, so it is necessary. Although the general GH60 can use some keys in the lower right corner as a direction key in some way, such as brushing a special arrangement or using a combination of keys, I always feel that it is inconvenient.

One day, when strolling around, I stumbled upon a GH60 PCB board. The biggest feature of this board is that it can support independent arrow keys. It does not conflict with and overlap with the functions of other keys. As a result, I am at the Taobao shop introduced by the seller. Found a PCB board.


When I bought it, I started to buy it. The sellers welded the components on the PCB except the SMD lamp. As long as they added the axis, I couldn't make sure that my art was only two or three millimeters long. resistance. Order before the holiday, into the exchange group, until the end of my holiday is finally shipped, let the students help me to take it, to the school that night can not wait to get it out of the box. Let's put some open-box drawings first, because basically all work is done in the evening, and I don't even think how to take pictures.

Tearing the courier wrapper, an ordinary paper box, the owner also told us to broadcast the paper folding box.

Open the box, there are two things. The red nature is the protagonist circuit board. The XD60 is marked on the board. This board is named after the author's own name. It is placed in an anti-static bag. The other one is the mysterious spree sent by the group leader because I am the first one. A group of group purchases, so some small gifts were sent, and the owner said that everyone's are different...

First open the gift bag, a keycap with a keyboard cat logo, a few metal stickers, a bag of melon seed ... The capsule-like thing is a ballpoint pen, a dead big fish PCB board (seemingly can be made into a separate direction The key circuit board), several patch led lights, is used to light the logo on the PCB.

There is a piece of paper...

The following is the main appearance: this time the group purchase is a red gold plate, the ordinary is a green PCB, can not tell what exactly is different, may be good material? Anyway, this look is more comfortable, high-end foreign gas.

It can be seen that the bottom two rows of holes in the PCB are very complex and the purpose is to be compatible with more different arrangements. Of course, too many holes will cause unstable installation of the shaft, especially those who do not use the positioning plate, such as me.

In addition, I also bought quite a few necessary parts. I didn't take pictures one by one. Let me introduce it:

The new G-axis, 55 red +15 green, the green axis seems to be the heaviest axis of the G-axis facade, mainly used in the big key position, rebound better; white plastic shell, buy the cheapest kind, because Not very concerned about the bottom light, so the transparent shell is not necessary (mainly poor), and I prefer the full height of the shell, that is, the type of shaft will not be exposed after the keycap; a transparent satellite Axis, keeping consistent with the G-axis transparent shell; 200 hot-swappable lamp holders, the installation process is really unacceptable death, no way, their own installation x, squatting also Bahrain; several personality light keycap, Mainly the ESC and the arrow keys, personality key cap is really expensive, meat hurts not; a LINDY installed x data line, the original intention is to install x, and feel the helix is ​​better to take care of, but come back to find is not very It's easy to use; a wooden wrist rest can't be used when you are accustomed to it; at last there's a felt keyboard pack, and it's also convenient to get somewhere else.

Your Highness Miku!

White plastic shells, feel work can also, basically no glitches, more rounded appearance.

Posted the metal stickers, and four foot stickers have to paste themselves.

There is also a set of 104 keyless caps. There are many reasons to buy no time, one is the arrangement of the wonderful, there are some keycaps need additional supplementation, just can be replaced with a keyless area without a key, for example, the O key of the keypad area is used as the left 2x length shift The second is that I am a person with some obsessive-compulsive disorder, or need a set of key caps that are all engraved with words, or all of them are no moments, how to see how the two kinds of mix up are awkward, if all are words, each key is on The best word is to keep the same with the key position, for example, to get a 0 key on the shift position is not good, there is an extra buy is really expensive. Of course, if you have money, you can ignore it. For example, Valentine's Day for a vegetable dish looks like 165 keycaps. Basically all the allocations are available, but the set of keycaps is more expensive than my entire keyboard, and my heart is definitely rejected.

The next step is to assemble it. There is nothing to say, thinking that there is no positioning plate, so the axles that are bought are all five-legged shafts. I thought that places with a lot of holes would be unstable. Later I discovered that it was okay and I could basically guarantee five feet. The four feet can be fixed in the hole, in addition to the two legs of the hot-swappable lamp base, which are strong enough.

First on the front of the lamp, I fixed the shaft first and then on the lamp, it is really recommended that the first lamp and then fixed axis, installed hands are quickly wasted. I am still somewhat arrogant. I installed all the lights and tested them. If I plugged into a computer, how did it shine? Later, it was found that the lamp was installed in reverse... I didn't quite understand what the board was like because I was using the positive and negative lamps above the shaft, but it seemed that there was a positive and negative electrode on the circuit board. It's the reverse... Fortunately, it's hot pluggable. If it's soldered directly, I guess it's crashing on the spot.

I really want to skip this step of brush assignment, because I was totally ignorant before this, under the guidance of the gods, and then I explored for a period of time, and finally brushed out the allocation, all others have written a script , I just step by brush into it, so skip, skip, just put a distribution diagram is good, this distribution is also one of the author's more recommended one of the distribution, full-featured and relatively good key cap.

The logo and caps lights I also installed together, the group owners sent a few yellow patch lights, just used in the logo and caps, but the caps will only light one at the same time, axis lights, the lights do not shine, The effect I want is to open the capital letters. The two lights are on together, the capital letters are off, and only the axis light is on. It seems that I have to consult the Great God.

It turned out that the two horizontal resistors in the white box were replaced by vertical ones. The author has already reserved different options.

After the change, the caps' axis light and side light can work independently and achieve the effect I wanted before.

On the back of the patch can be put on the place ... purely for fun.

Put yy in the shell first, put a few individual keycaps first.

After that, all the keycaps are on. Buying white no moment is to come back and dye yourself. The last time you made a message to rewrite the keyboard, many people said that the color is not good,


In fact, I also feel a bit too glamorous, so this time thinking about casually dye a few pure and not artificial, mainly lazy, so it only stained the big key position, the main color is yellow and green.

Boil the space bar... Boil half and dye the two-color spaces.


The space was lost, because there was no clear distinction between the two ends which is yellow or green, so the green dyed more.

The two-color key caps freshly baked leave the bottom chrysanthemum dry.

After waiting for an afternoon, it finally dried, and all the other keycaps were already installed, and the dyed ones remained.

This is an overall effect, and it's actually better to look at the keyless hat without a moment. It always felt a bit offensive, and it couldn't tell where the problem was. Forget it, the color of his own dye, and he would cry.

Coupled with solid wood wrist rest, the new keyboard is hot, and quickly to play two dnf pressure stunned.

The bedroom lights were turned off at night, the keyboard lights turned on, and there was light, but the brightness of the lights was adjustable, and they also had several kinds of lights. If you need a higher-end lighting effect, this board is also reserved for the socket of the light effect board and the interface of the bottom RGB light strip. However, the current light strip can only use the remote control color, and the function of directly using the keyboard to control the light strip will be introduced later. .

Summary: The new keyboard was born this way. The first time it touched the GH60 and the red axis keyboard, it was a little summary.

advantage:

One: The keyboard is exquisite, the area is few, the desktop is basically difficult to put down the full keyboard, when the previous full keyboard comes out, it must clean up the desktop;

Two: The ability to use, although the key position is small, but the sparrow is small and fully-organized, some commonly used keys on the first layer of the key, the unusual function can be achieved through Fn + specific keys, so this keyboard is fully enough;

Three: The low-cost experience of the legendary steel-free red shaft, this article is to use this keyboard to knock on, the bedroom to a new classmate, the blue shaft of the voice is bound to affect others, the red shaft pressure is lighter, With no steel plate, the sound is introverted and subtle, which is much quieter than the black or green axis that I used before. In addition, because of the small trigger pressure, the long time code is not very tired. In addition, the game was refreshed a lot faster than the green one, and exploded instantly.

Disadvantages:

A: There is no positioning board, so there are some individual shafts are still installed some of the embarrassment, although it does not feel used, but some can still be seen on the keycap, after all, with more than the positioning plate is not good to do. In fact, I did not initially locate the positioning board for two reasons. First, I would like to experience the legendary steel-free red shaft in the end. I think the positioning board will block the cat's head logo, although it is now blocked. But from his own point of view, you can still see half of the cat's head. Meng;

Two: because of obsessive-compulsive disorder (poor) so no key cap, although blind play is not a big problem for me, but in the game when several times to find more distant keys press wrong, in addition Fn key combination also It's harder to find a keyboard than a keyboard with lettering. Fortunately, those keys are very difficult to use for a long time. They are all goods without any encumbrances. No light on the word, what is the difference with salted fish;

Three: There is no small keyboard, no small keyboard, no small keyboard, lose the password is still not used to use the main keyboard area number keys, but I really do not like the full keyboard, so I was considering whether to put a separate small number Pad is good, there are individuals in the group engaged in excellent pad, consider considering ...

Written at the end:

Originally, it was intended to write a share, but when doing things, all kinds of forget to take pictures, I put in the price of the things you like, and this keyboard assembly time is also a day or so, did not leave too many photos, originally thought not Write it, but still think about idleness is idle, share with you the results and happiness.

the above.
