Build Info

This is one of the earlier Gummy O-Ring Gasket Keyboard back in 2020. This keyboard has a two-piece case to “sandwich” the plate in-between, which is different from the majority of one-piece friction fit Gummy O-Ring boards nowadays. The O-Ring is also quite tight, squeezing into the Plate-PCB assembly. It is a very comfortable typing experience, as with other Gummy O-Ring Gasket Mount Keyboards I have tried, and this is quickly becoming one of my favorite mounting style. It provides a bouncy and softened typing feel while having a higher pitch pop sound profile, unlike the softened and muted sound profile from Poron Gasket Mount. The Gummy O-Ring Mount also gives a hint of metallic resonance of the case in a good way, not to be confused with case ping, that adds character to the board.
