How To Lube and Properly Tune Stabilizers - 2022

Here is how I mod my stabilizers. I get asked this a lot of my streams and honestly, I figured why not just record this so I can link this video instead of having to re-explain it every time. I hope you enjoy it. Please remember this video is only covering lubing and installing, some stabs like cherry clip-ins, you'll need to clip the bottom legs of the stem, this video does not cover that nor assembling the stabilizer.

For anyone who is wondering about this vs other mods, I prefer this method but other mods are fine and you should never feel bad using other mods! But I really do think you should be wire balancing.

Also if you want a written guide on how to build a keyboard, I have one now: https://www.alexotos.com/how-to-build...
