Do I Need to Lube My Keyboard Switches?
Figure 1: Sometime around here is a good time to ask that question... If you’re new to the mechanical keyboard hobby, I have no doubt that planning your first keyboard build is a bit of a daunting task. To be entirely honest with you, it’s only a tiny bit less daunting for your second or even third keyboard builds should you stay around a little while longer. You’ve got the keyboard itself to worry about, stabilizers, keycaps, and even switches on top of all of the intangible marks you want your dream keyboard to hit. Switches are especially daunting right out of the gate as there’s just so many options out there to pick from – each with their own unique specifications, manufacturers, and more. Yet, in spite of all of these differences between switches, time and time again I find people always asking about lubing switches as one of their chief concerns when it comes to picking some up.

So I totally missed the drop because the insufficient payment notification which went straight to my junk mail so I wasn't able to pay for my K-Type in time.
I have been waiting for about a year to receive this keyboard and need it for research purposes since I am a Computer Science Student doing research in human-computer interaction and was hoping to receive this keyboard by December since my paper is due before Christmas. The K-Type is perfect because it provides multiple programmable function layers as well as lights (this could help with conditions such as dyslexia and other disorders)
I'm looking for the K-Type with Halo True Switches just so you guys know.
I know this is a long shot, but I was wondering if anybody was willing to sell their K-Type to me for a higher price or do a trade of one of the keyboards/computer stuff I have:
1.) DAS Keyboard 4 - Cherry MX Brown 2.) WASD Code Full Size - Cherry MX Clear 3.) Happy Hacking Professional 2 type S - Topre 45 gram 4.) Realforce 87U - Topre 55 gram 5.) Filco Majestouch Minila - Cherry MX Brown
Every keyboard comes with a Chiton case and a wrist rest except for the DAS Keyboard 4
If any of you are able to help me out with this (you don't like the keyboard) PLEASE LET ME KNOW, I would really appreciate it since I don't think I can wait any longer!
Thanks!
