Started with the Stock Wooting foam in the Aluminum GH60 case. It sounded okay, but there was still a lot of room left in the case, which caused some case ping. Personally had to change it out for something that fills more space in the GH60.
Here is a sound comparison between the Magnetic Jades and Lekker switches:
To start the silicone mold, I covered all holes in the GH60 case with masking tape, including standoffs. Stirred the silicone with a plastic fork, in a solo cup, for a little over 6 minutes. Left it to cure overnight for about 12 hours. I ended up going through with an exacto knife, to remove some extra material around the standoffs. So, it doesn't look as perfect as it was, when it finished curing but it sounds every bit of what I was hoping for.
It is quite hefty now too.
I got the idea for the silicone mold from this video on YouTube: How to Make a Tofu 60 Silicone Dampener | Serendipity
Tachyon mode seems to be working fine with this cable. I run my keyboard brightness pretty low at 8% though. You could probably run it a lot higher, I just prefer to run it low, so I can see the white pcb plate.
I upgraded to the Gateron Magnetic Jade switches. Previously used hand lubed Lekker Switches with 50g springs From Wooting. The actuation force on the Magnetic Jades feel great. They also have a shorter travel distance which is awesome, especially while counter strafing in CS2, leaving less room for error.
I went with both the Switch Lube Set and Toolkit from Wooting. Both worked great, no complaints.
Not exactly sure how long it took but I have a good estimate... My phone died right after I started, so I pulled out some vinyl records to listen to. Made it through a little over 4-5 albums before I was done, so you can probably estimate the time.

Really happy with this case for $80 and it adds a lot of weight to the keyboard.
If you plan on burger mounting with this case, get something like these...

Love this set, the extra red accent color really makes these caps stand out
Current photos on this site show YDMK Katakana Key caps on the edges which are a slight different shade of black compaired to the PBTFans keycaps. See the Sound Test for and updated look at the keyboard!

Still have some of the cases and keycaps I considered for my build saved to my bookmarks bar. So I figured I could put them below, just in case anyone needs some more inspiration for their build!
Note: I do not own any of these parts, so I will not be able to comment on their quality. Just thought someone might enjoy extra part ideas, especially with how often some parts go out of stock
Thanks to GewaltofRiwia, Ostrich, Over Heaven and Pink! from the Wooting Discord, for answering questions while I worked on this keyboard and/or build breakdown
