Man, I'm kind of relieved that I wasn't crazy about using the switch puller as a stab remover because it's still a cross with a tab. The funny thing about this method was that none of the people I talked to knew that you could do it this way; they always used tweezers or their bare hands.
You might've had a decent one to start with, it happens sometimes! I've messed with several and they've all been kinda whack, but you know how it is with mass produced stuff - sometimes they come out well
On this particular kit, the stabilizers are what's called "plate mounted" which means it sits at the plate layer, making it easy to remove. Other keyboards may have stabs that are mounted to the PCB, which would require you to open the board up
you know, i'm not sure...let me ask them and see if they sell these separately I love how they look on their EK68 keyboard, but i agree, the set themselves look nice
So they responded back, and no they don't sell that set individually. They had recommended another purple keycap set but I looked at it and I don't think it'd fit your preference for simplistic lol it's a bit cluttered imo. So sorry!
@@keebtunes It’s okay, thank you for asking, and yeah I’ve been trying to find a similar one but haven’t been able to. Do you recommend any websites for keycaps?
It kind of depends on your style and budget? I typically source for clones if I need keycaps, cause I think high end keycaps are overpriced..temu and AliExpress have some really good sets of you know what to look for. Otherwise, I do like Akko's keycap sets
You can just put them back in the same way that you take them out. Slide the bar and top end of the stabilizers in first, then the bottom end where the tabs are to snap them back in.
And here I was disassembling everytime I wanted to tune my space bar. Big brain move 👌
oh lord I would never do anything to my spacebar stabs if I had to remove everything :D
THANK YOUUU, SAVED MY LIFE FR
YOU'RE SO WELCOME!
Thank you so much for taking my short suggestion I can mod my gmk67 :)
I hope it helps!
Ohhhh my goodness his voice!!! 😍
I think he sounds goofy!

Wow! I'm really glad that I wasn't the only one either lol! It's just so convenient this way!
augh, you are getting popular, hope u remember me
I'm still such an amateur YTuber lol! Your name's too unique to forget! Don't worry :D
why does everyone hate the stabilizers in the gmk, i think they’re pretty nice
You might've had a decent one to start with, it happens sometimes! I've messed with several and they've all been kinda whack, but you know how it is with mass produced stuff - sometimes they come out well
i could’ve used this when modding mine yesterday… i broke one of them and it doesn’t pop into place anymore. still works so it’s alr
Oof, the info never comes at the right time lol! You can find some cheap replacements on Temu if you need them.
Does gmk67 support screw in stabs? i want to put in owlstabs
Yes it does
so so does this mean you can swap out the stabilizers, sorry for dumb question im new to building keyboards
On this particular kit, the stabilizers are what's called "plate mounted" which means it sits at the plate layer, making it easy to remove. Other keyboards may have stabs that are mounted to the PCB, which would require you to open the board up
So it depends on the board
What size are the stabs Ford this keyboard?
Spacebar is 6.25u and the rest are standard 2u
What stabs are you using?
They're the stabs that came with the kit
what are the keycaps called?
Unfortunately the keycap sets aren't sold as a standalone anywhere. Epomaker sells them as part of their prebuilt keyboard, the EK68
YOU CAN DO THAT?!
Yeah it's a nice move 😁
@@keebtunesbeautiful keyboard btw where did you get that color?
@@2heo1987 so this keyboard is based on the GMK67 (same board, PCB, knob) and is called the Epomaker EK68. Check it out on Amazon or on their site!
@@keebtunes oh really? I've got the black gmk and they looked identical appart from the color!
@@2heo1987 yeah it's basically the same! Lol but it comes prebuilt with gat yellow switches and the purple and black colorway
does epomaker sell those keycaps? or do is there anyone else to find them? i really like the simple design to it
you know, i'm not sure...let me ask them and see if they sell these separately I love how they look on their EK68 keyboard, but i agree, the set themselves look nice
@@keebtunes thank you!

This is making me want to switch from screw in to plate mount stabs lmao
I'm not going to to lie, this is mostly the reason why I prefer plate mounted 😂, can quickly correct and change when needed
What is your keycaps ?
These came with the epomaker EK68 board (a prebuilt version of the GMK67)
@@keebtunes thanks
Can it be put back that easily too? 😥
Yus you can put it back the same way that you take it out
Tysm for reply!! ✌️
You're welcome! Good luck!
Oh so thats how you remove the spacebar😂
You can use anything flat and pry it up!
Thats a Epomaker EK68 but still the same as GMK67
Yessir lol I basically consider them all a gmk67
и как их потом обратно засунуть

Yeah I'll remove it the nornal way 😂😮🫨
this way's pretty normal to me (for plate mounted ones anyways)
