    I’m about to build my Mode Loop with Wueque Studios Aurora stabs, very excited to see how they are since they looked very promising. Wires clip in from the bottom, comes with teflon strips for holee and o rings for the screws

      I’ve tried using those Aurora stabs. Both sets came with warped wires.

      I’ve tried three sets of TX AP stabs. All had warped spacebar wires.

      I’ve tried Durock stabs. Those wires were also warped.

      I’ve tried GOAT stabs. Warped wires.

      The only stabs that didn’t have warped wires were Staebies and Genuine Cherry Clip-in’s and Cherry Screw-in’s.

      I liked Staebies but Staebies can cause binding. Not sure why the other user who mentioned the tolerance issue got downvoted because that user is right. Staebies can actually cause spacebar stem inserts to blow out for certain types of keycaps, notably MT3. They were manufactured specifically with GMK keycaps in mind (says so on their website).

      Both sets of the Cherry stabs had little to no issues, and the wires were just slightly unbalanced.

        Thanks for the insight! I’ll be sure to wire balance and I’d planned to put leftover gaskets between the PCB and wire anyway
