The crisp sound of the mechanical keyboard is pleasant, but it can only be heard when using the keyboard. These small and cheap stress-relieving toys solve this problem.

Playing with the clicking stuff calmed me down—the sound was pleasant, and my hands were moving while focusing on other things. I used to do this with a telescopic pen (in the age when I needed to write my papers) which bothered my classmates.

But now, mechanical keyboards and mechanical shafts bring the same effect. The clicking and sounds made by the mechanical shaft are pleasant, and the different feels and "clicking" of different mechanical shafts add to the satisfaction.

OK, maybe I'm just addicted to collecting anything clicking.

Article 1 But from this perspective, mechanical keyboards also have some disadvantages. First, you can’t just sit there and play with them casually – you can only enjoy the clicking and typing while typing, which means I’m not thinking about how to handle the task, but actually doing it. Usually, if I'm playing with stress relief toys, I'm doing the former.

Second, your keyboard usually has only one type of axes at any given time, so if you want to experience a different feeling, you have to take out another keyboard, or if you only have one, you have to completely replace the axes.

However, while browsing Amazon casually, I found an unlikely but perfect solution.

These little toys are clever. Although I initially thought I could only use the keyboard shaft that was already installed in it, I quickly found that I could take it out and replace it with other shafts without damaging either side. After learning this, I started to do it.

I took out all my shaft body sets, took one of each and replaced the blue shaft body in the toy with them. Now, I have four keychains that feel differently, instead of six keychains that feel the same. Whenever I need a stress relief toy, I take one out and start clicking it, and if it isn't the "feel" I want, I'll try another one.

Every time I get a new set of keycaps, I put one of them in the keychain. If one of the shafts is broken, I can put the broken one in the keychain - because the base itself is a simple cube and you don't need leaves to match to put it in. These gadgets can still make the shafts that you usually throw away or need repairs still work.

Now, I have seven unique mechanical shaft body keychains and as I try new shaft bodies I will have more to add to my collection. I don't even have to guess which toy corresponds to which shaft body, because the base is transparent.

If you want to go a step further, you can even buy a shaft body test sample pack to get a wide variety of new shaft bodies to replace. I might do this soon-who knows, maybe after trying it I'll find a new set of favorite axes.

Price of impulse purchase

What are the best places for these stress relief toys? They are very cheap (in a good way). The highest price is $10 per pack, and you can even pay a $2 or less depending on the color scheme and possible discounts. Even if you don't end up using them, they just sit somewhere in the drawer, you still get the whole set for only a less expensive price than takeaway.

Also, if you are reading this post, you will most likely have one or two other tech geeks in your life, so you can even use these as fun surprise gifts. You can install your own shaft for them or have them customize their own set, but either way, for $10, it's worth the money even if you just play with these little keychains for a few minutes.
