This feels like a product from the future. I'm shocked it didn't take them years longer to start releasing modding-friendly versions of their keyboards

I love how wooting is showing they are listening to the community! They’re trying to bring the best products out for gaming while not totally disgusting the custom enthusiasts

Wooting showing actual interest in the community and taking in feedback. Love to see it, great vid as always bro 🔥

**UPDATE** The og Tofu60 has been discontinued, there is a new Tofu60 Redux shipping in Sept. Its a great case for the Wooting and you can check out the video on it here - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oLKYorpmt5iVj5s.html

Your explaination style is one of the best on youtube or anywhere. You say what needs to be said, directly with no extra words and warn about what matters.

The Lekker switches don't need to be swapped to south facing to avoid interference. Gateron has added a new fillet to their new molds (ever since the Oil Kings I think) which avoids north facing interference with Cherry profile keycaps, which the Lekker has. Just a heads up if you happen to see this.

Late to comment but I just received my board and I have some recommendations for those who follow this guide. 1. Absolutely relube the stabilizers on this board, they seem like they are lubed well but they are not... I took mine apart to see how well they were lubed, and they had lube just in the wrong locations or there just wasn't enough. I recommend following Taehatypes video on lubing stabs! 2. CLIP the stabs they are not preclipped. 3.I went ahead and used a silicone mix to help with the sound of the board and it came out fantastic! You could also go with a foam mod kit from StupidFish they make a kit for a lot of cases and the Tofu 60 is one of them. 4. I also swapped my springs for the lighter 50gm springs, and I can say it may not be worth it the slightly heavier springs are just fine however if you like a lighter feel than go for it. All that said after following this guide and doing the above mods I can say my board sounds and feels soooooo much better. Give it a try and come back to tell me how your boards sound!

Its incredible to me the amount of thought these guys put into this board. With how accessible the tofu is in general, this board ends up being more than good enough for the average gamer/gaming keyboard user. Sure the enthusiasts may harp on things like the steel plate and stiffness but to the everyday consumer, a tofu and some lube can send their typing and gaming experience to the moon, and that is so fucking cool. Also love that you walked through specifically how to mod this as well - I can also see this being a great guide for modding and making improvements for ANY gaming board, not even just this one. Awesome vid man, you can really tell that you care to get consumers the best experience possible and we love to see that.

Im only halfway through the video and it’s already the most informative video I’ve watched about keyboards, it showed me an amazing foam for keyboards, perfect set to deal with switches, and a line syringe. Thank you man I love this video.

It's like you read my mind with the Tofu case! In my eyes it helps the Wooting go from a gamer specialty board to something I'd want to use everyday for WFH AND game with. Keep up the awesome work Brian!

New here, but the fact that I'm seeing good Wooting content from someone in a cool Roland shirt makes me glad to be alive. Gotta appreciate the algorithm, +sub

A keyboard that looks nice, and that has a super performance in gaming! This definitely caught up my attention, great job Wooting!

ive been thinking of getting this board, now im def getting it. I like how you can customize the case (going for a tofu 60 case), and being able to lube the switch without losing the ability to change the actuation point. Might go for the 100% tho, Thanks for this awesome content

started to mod mine today I really loves what Wooting is doing here taking all the feedback they can to cater to its customers been loving my board and the modding is going quite well all we need is mouse company with Wootings work ethics life would be complete

Been rocking mine for about a month. Well worth the wait. Done some mods. Great company.

If you wrap the tape mod up along the sides of the PCB and plate (filling the gap between the two), you can get a clean sound and depending on layers even forgo case foam. I recommend some wheel balancing weights in the battery cavity of the Tofu case, tape mod as described and maybe a small bit of polyfill if needed.

i for one appreciate the last statement in this video and acknowledging the suggestion of the content. didn’t have to do that, but it’s a nice earnest addition.

**THE FOLLOWING IS FROM WOOTING BUT KZfaq KEEPS DELETING THIS COMMENT** "This is an amazing overview for modding and beyond what we could think or show ourselves. On behalf of the Wooting community and ourselves: big thanks. The burger mount is a good suggestion! Some useful information for anybody looking to mod their 60HE: The Wooting 60HE 2D/3D design files, we publish everything on our GitHub: github.com/WootingKb/wooting-design/tree/main/wooting-60he Public list of 60% cases verified by us or the community (updated over time, not limited to): wooting-technologies.notion.site/de7a52e2b5a941258a17e448b0c9d9b0?v=5ec0b31c59db4a51b8a86a1288249e9f Concerning swappable switch plates, we are looking into them. We are most concerned about the integrity of the Analog signal, but it should be possible! If you attempt a custom plate yourself, there's been a few on the Wooting community that have done it successfully. You'll need to match the PCB screws with the custom plate (creating holes) and use spacers to attach them."

Such an amazing video really well done you’re just surpassing your self in each video and keep getting better and better keep it up man so much love and support stay up!.

6:34 Zipfit damp 7:10 Wooting damp This is just for me to compare which sound I like better Wooting damp sounds deeper

11:20 LOOK AT HIM HE KNOWS HOW SMOOTH THE ADD WAS YOOOO MAN THAT WAS AMAZING😂✨

The diligence you put into this video is insane. Wow, thank you

I've watched videos of yours here and there when I'm searching for a specific video, but after watching this one, I subscribed. The information provided is perfect for those of us who are excited and waiting to receive our 60HE's and want more information in anticipation of having our hands on it. That, plus the footage showing you gaming has a nice little highlight & the segue into the sponsored segment was perfect. I look forward to keeping up with your content.

FINALLY got to actually use some of the info in this video! I've been waiting for so long to get my wooting and then had to wait even longer to case swap it and mod it. I'm mostly typiung this comment because I love the way this board sounds now and its so much better than before I modded it. Thanks!!!!!

knew I had to watch this vid as soon as the notification came up

Just went ahead and sent a pre-order through their site. Have been wanting an upgrade from my Anne Pro 2 for the last 3 years now, so much so that I've been debating making a custom board but this video convinced me otherwise. Can't wait to see what it's like in person. Exceptional video as always 👍

Thank you so much for experimenting for me so I don't have to. Mine comes in a couple of weeks and Im so excited, but didnt want to have to deal with experimenting over and over until I found what I like. I think I know exactly what Im going to do now. Thanks, king

mine arrived today, so far I really love it! And thanks to Mr Badseed my desk has this kbd, a schiit stack and a pair of DT1990 Pro's, all purchased with confidence. Many thanks 🙂

Ive been using a screw driver then using the prongs on the top part of the switch to open them up for a while. This way works better than most switch openers out there in my experience

Good morning it’s 9Am here and I shall watch this epic mod.

pre ordered mine yesterday. your review sold me. can't wait to try that rapid trigger setting.

For those wanting RGB + Cherry keycaps, Wooting has updated the Lekker switches to use the newer top housing mold that doesn't interfere with Cherry R3 keycaps. So north facing doesn't have interference anymore!

I watch this guys videos like five times and every-time I find little nuances that I didn’t see the first time. Almost like watching a movie 😂😂😂

Wooting is such a God send. They set out to make the objectively best gaming keyboard out there and did their damnest to make is customizable so everyone can have the best experience possible. They easily became my favorite gaming company the second I heard of them.

You can prevent scratching the paint if you pull the switch up straight instead of rocking the puller back and forth when pulling the switch out. It's harder and the switch comes out more violently but nothing bad is going to happen. If you have a sturdy hand and pull without holding back you'll get them out faster and better this way.

I have been seeing this keybaord pop up a lot in 2023, and I feel the strap is a must imo, it is more the feeling of if a friend comes over or you walk into a LAN, that strap catches eyes and puts fear in the air, as they know- they know you have an advantage on movement and rapid keystrokes! haha but thats just me, I like little gimics like that, but I can see the pros of modding, and really making a sleeper keyboard ;)

I wish they would make a TKL version of this.

If you want a nicer case try and get hold of one of a Mekanisk Fjell or Klippe. They have the same mounting points as a Tofu but sound and look much better. Also its a shame the PCB and plate sounded so crappy in the Salvation because they board does sound really good normally. Some of the more flexible plate materials might work if you used some plate foam.

I may be weird but I actually prefer this board with just lubed stabs and the stock case. That’s what sounds the best imo.

Dud i remember watching this channel when it had like 12k, glad you blew up

Just bought the wooting, lube, a tofu 60% and Keycaps for the board today can’t wait for it to come in

Love the content and the professionalism of each video!

one of the things you can do to make a plate work without standoffs is to put a small dab of hot glue on all of the fixing pins in the pcb to keep it all nicely together. It's removable still, but secure!

I really appreciate your vids on this board. They were def the reason I pulled the trigger on the Wooting 60he…I am extremely stoked to get it and will be doing the tofu60 mods being tested around 7:18. Def gained a new sub 🙏🏽🤘🏽

such a good ad segway I actually watched the entire ad.

Love your content man, getting into keyboards and audio was a blast thanks to your vids.

You seriously improved the sound. I'd like to see this keyboard in a 65% with dedicated arrow keys. I'm not waiting and holding my breath for a 65%. I'll buy the 60% and be happy with it in a tofu case with a keycap swap.

Glad I found this video, I just ordered my keyboard. I still don’t know Michael bout modding or lubing so this will help me out when it arrives.

You're really killing it with this video.

I wish they release other keyboard size (TKL for me personally) for the HE series as soon as the pre-orders are shipped.

I been using a Wooting One TKL from the Kickstarter for like 5+ years now, with no issues. My roommates USB port went out on his after a year, but he normally goes thru at least 1 kb per year so not a fault of the Wooting.

Appreciate you showing the burger mount, this is the exact config I wanted to go for. Unlucky that the steel plate limits the sound so much. Really wish wooting would offer fr4 options

I really like the kbd fans board with the wooting dampening.

Extremely well made and informative video. Thanks for the good work!

i was JUST looking at tofu60 cases and stupidfish foams for it. thanks for this video, you the goat!!!

The “Brazzers” gag was priceless.

Man, I am like Wooting more and more. Making gaming keyboards mod friendly is big brain as fuck. For people who don't really care and just want a good performing keyboard out of box, they can just use it stock. For a custom freak like me I have the option of dropping this into another Tray Mount style chassis and doing w.e I want. I really hope they include this design philosophy in their future products!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who cracks open switches with a tight fist! Man up baby! Hahaha. Love the mods bro. Great video as always. 🤜

I love the keyboard stuff. For me, I'm cool with whatever you feel like making.

I actually removed the PCB and the foam pad, and just pushed the switches out without using any tools. That way the plane can stay scuff free.

hey brian! not sure if you'll see this, but i saw a comment earlier that asked about a lower-profile or different case for the wooting pcb and plate other than the tofu60. I thought i'd leave a comment with some alternative choices. the five degree case is also a standard tray mount case but it's shorter and has - wait for it - a five degree typing angle as opposed to seven degrees on the tofu, so it should be good for gaming for long periods of time. it's also made by kbdfans so if someone is planning on getting a tofu case but wants something lower then this could be a good alternative. the blade60 case is another candidate but it only has two standoffs. if you keep the stock plate, though, as i imagine most will, the pcb+plate module *should* be rigid enough to give consistent performance but only time will tell.

Always looking forward to a new Badseed vid :D just started training up for a WFH job, staving off the temptation for a new silent board build 😅for now

As usual great video and coverage for people who want to take make wooting custom. Wooting just need to release their plate file and in no time you can easily get aftermarket plate for this pcb. There are vendors who are willing to make custom fr4 and carbon fibre plate but plate file is needed to get it done.

that spacebar is pristine

I wasn't considering a 60%, but I am now... Love those Grand Prix keycaps, but holy cow, $$$!

I'm following this, and I just bought a lot of the stuff in the video. Thank you for the information. I ended up going with the GMK Yuri R2 keycaps, but everything else is the same

Pls do deathstalker v2 mod I main wooting and upcoming deathstalker tkl

I'm still waiting on my board to come in so this video is preparing me to spend even more money

Wow I’ve never realized Schlatt has been into the keyboard hobby

Exact video I was looking for to kick off my custom build. Thanks, BadSeedTech, liked and subscribed.

Just weighing in. If you have a switch top you don't need an opener. A top is a great free switch opener. Flip the top upside down and push the switch onto it.

Dare say this would sound and feel better with an SMKeyboards case & plate.

Man the sound of the board with the dampeninf and tape mod is nice. But I only use TKL and made my glorious board 2 years ago and have no issues thankfully lol

God I've been waiting so much for this!! Grat stuff Bryan! :D Edit: Hope Wooting do listen to the enthusiasts, as PCB Mount Stabs and Alu/FR4 Plates would be a MASSIVE upgrade - and yeah, I would definitely ditch my Bakaneko60 for it. Also, I've seen people modding the PCB into the Blade60 case, and it is indeed a nice alternative (The standoffs are removable and have their own take on the burguer mount).

Honestly I like the way it looks stock way better

Thanks for using GMK Grand Prix. Glad you like the set!

I haven't become a keyboard snob... yet. So at this point, the 60HE is my endgame board. Don't know if I have the time or patience to lube everything though. That seems tedious AF.

cannot wait to get my hands on this board

You did it man! I’ve joined the hype train 😂 I literally bought all the items needed and im going to try out my first custom (well semi custom) built keyboard! Appreciate the video! One question though; if I use the wooting mat mod, can I still use the zip on the inner deeper area of the tofu to cover that part at least with it?

I did a heavy coat of lube, and sat there and pressed everykey a few hundred times and now it’s smooth and thocky a little poppy. Build wooting he+ with aluminaze case pc plate and oem profile keycaps

Coming from someone who had the mind blown by the original cannonkeys bakeneko and has used nothing but bak60 and 65s since, I could 100% deal with the sound of this. I wish someone made a tofu style case with a lower front height/typing angle, as that's a huge factor in gaming for long periods. Overall insane how good it managed to sound for the money though!

gmk grand prix is such an underrated set

No BS guide is so convenient

Damn Brian that actually sounds pretty solid!!

That Roland T is fire.

Great video man.

4:44 BRAZZERS😆🤣😂😝🤪😜🤑(wow didn't expected to get a heart😊) wait a minute where do my heart go?😆

Really like how far you managed to push it. The tripod stickers seem to isolate the switch instead of resonating through the rest of the board. I like that, but it seems like an absolute PITA. I'm personally a huge fan of the meatier bottom out of long pole switches, but that doesn't seem feasible with this magnet design. Also, really can't get over tactiles. Can't stand linears. Love how technically impressive this hardware is and love that Wooting enables you to go custom with it. The USB port placement is a bit unfortunate but you can still get it to work, so it's just a minor issue I guess. Will definitely recommend 60HE to people who are into gaming and linears and try to fix them on some custom stuff later down the line :) EDIT: Can you mount this by wrapping an o-ring around or is there not enough room? That might help the sound because the PCB stops making contact with the tray all together.

that Roland shirt goes crazy.

nice video really appreciate the effort that went into modding it, have you considered maybe installing the pcb in a fjell ? would be even better than a tofu and should theoretically fit

What is that desk mat? I love the cartoon art!

I got sick af from covid and stayed inside for almost 2 months. Soon my beard will be long enough to give me the confidence to start my own youtube channel.

that brazzers logo got me good lol

"Thats not real, don't try that" I almost spit out my coffee 🤣🤣

Never thought I'd see the day badseed would use the word gigachad

If anyone need a different plate option for this keyboard, let me know. I have cut plenty of pom plates for it and can produce more plates in different materials depending on the interest.

Strap in folks, it's another banger video from keyboard daddy. lmao. Great work as always sir! Love these deep dives into serious modding.

Looking forward to more IEM content. I just picked up the sennheiser ie 600s and love them. Be cool to hear your thoughts

I'd buy this in a heartbeat if it had a TKL or at least a 75% version. I simply need my dedicated F row, arrow keys and DEL key. TKL is already small enough horizontally for my FPS tryharding needs, but if people want something smaller from Wooting, I could live with a 75% that has a DEL key and arrows. However, the F row is a must, and the extra vertical height does not matter for mousepad space, so I don't see it potentially hindering sales to comp gamers. I guess Wooting is probably saving a nice amount on each unit, by requiring less switches, keycaps, and a smaller PCB, but still selling the KB at a price which would be normal for even a TKL. I just don't see why they wouldn't make a TKL version otherwise. That from factor is pretty much the mainstream between competitive circles, and I think a lot of players (like me) are not getting this keeb, exactly because it's only a 60%.
