Lubed Tactile Switches and Side-printed Key-caps

This was the first and simplest of all the modifications I’ve made to any keyboard. Essentially it was a full keyboard with south-facing LEDs and side-printed key-caps. Nothing particularly fancy, however its case was modified to improve rigidity and its sound signature while the tactile switches were de-soldered and lubricated – along with the key-stabilizers -, resulting in a far quieter, more solid and better sounding keyboard.
