Some people say Gaterons are smooth Cherries... Not true. Nixies are smooth Cherries.Redmaus wrote: ↑People say they are as smooth as it gets right?
Well, there you go. As I said I only had a single switch to try. Maybe that one was a bit old and dusty?photekq wrote: ↑I'm sure there is some variation in the smoothness of Nixdorfs, but the ones I've owned have definitely been the smoothest switches I've ever tried.

I'll contact him and ask if he's up for a deal, or if he even has more.Muirium wrote: ↑Oh, I see, now that The Great Alps Rush is underway, it's raining Nixies?

It's all pure chance IMO. I'll do a teardown thread of this Nixdorf soon.
