Over extended orange alps click leaf
Posted: 12 Aug 2018, 02:50
Does anyone have a profile shot of an orange alps click leaf? I want to compare it to mine.
I bought an apple m0116 with orange switches and, after finding dead things inside it I decided to clean it up. This was my first time cleaning an alps board. So obviously when I opened up the switches I decided to try to add some tactility (what was I thinking..) and stretched (not sure if that's the right world..) the click leaf to a larger angle. It was definitely more tactile but now it feels weird...I want to push it back to it's original angle but I don't remember what it's supposed to be. I'm sorry for the long text, and thank you in advance!
edit:
I rewatched chyrosan's alps cleaning video and found some tips on the angle for the click leaf (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Mhmb2kBuwQ). The section I used starts around 6:30. I've added a before and after picture of my click leafs below. The one on the left is my overextended one the one on the right is my attempted fix.
