Reply to comment by Tweetydabirdie in Mill-Max Hotswap sockets - what the youtube guides don't tell you by OfTheStrange

What sockets would fit the board better? I had no idea.

Yeah your third point makes sense. I killed about 3 switches using the same MX Browns, but luckily the rest installed just fine.

I did my best to research before buying parts, but the hobby is already overwhelming when starting for the first time so I'm not surprised I bought the wrong parts.

Mill max have an online guide to selecting the correct part no for the size hole and stem. It should give you a better fit.

Cool! Having trouble finding that but I'll keep looking. I'm only seeing the 3 main sockets they sell which seem to have no difference in the head size of the socket
