Stupid question but Novatouch sliders is mx converter?
1
Novatouch was a Coolermaster keyboard with topre mx sliders. It's not available anymore and the Novatouch sliders seem to be the best topre mx sliders, therefore the after market prices are pretty high.
It's not a converter though, the topre sliders are completly replaced with Novatouch sliders.

Alright I will keep an eye out for that one ^^

The best solution currently. Especially for spacebar.

I haven't touched the spacebar yet, any mods necessary to use the Novatouch slider? Did you switch the stabilizers with the Novatouch stabilizers as well?
1
Yes. Remove the old stabilizers and install novatouch's mx stabilizer, but use the old 6u wire instead. nothing more.

That spacebar look pretty warped to me?
I tried flipping the spacebar when I got my first HHKB. That stopped pretty quickly though...

I use space-Fn with Karabiner on mac (mocking the minila layout), a flipping spacebar feels better.

what sliders did you use?
1
The easiest way, Novatouch.

I am now back with a HHKB and Novatouch sliders, and was thinking of getting the same set as I am in love with these!
However I see that you have an o-ring to the right? Why is that?
1
A little noise for the enter key， not as good as left shift. Try to fix it, but failed. I tried 4 sliders from a novatouch, all failed. Maybe I should mod my hybrid type-s .....

Yeah I have the same and are scared as shit of destroying it haha

looking good! Been searching everywhere to find this set but its all sold out.
