I have a das keyboard (not the current gen, but the one right before it). The rubber feet on the left side, though not visibly worn, are really not providing any friction. The left side will just slip so easily while the right side stays firmly in place.

The entire surface of the rubber on the left side feels rather smooth. Any idea what's up and how I can fix it? Not sure where to get replacement feet for the das if necessary.

Clean them and clean the table.

Been cleaning the rubber feet to no avail, table is clean and besides it's like this on every table I use. Tbh I can feel almost no resistance on the left if i try to slide it.

Hmm I'm starting to think that my keyboard is unbalanced somehow with the riser things in use. If I lay it flat on the table then it sticks as it should. Not sure what I can do about that though -_-

So ghetto but maybe necessary I guess. Turns out most of the left side rubber foot isn't even touching the table....(when risers in use)

My keyboard has two rubber feet on each side. The second set is for when those risers that give you problems are in use. Perhaps you can rip off the rubber feet of your keyboard and glue them to a better position that works with the risers in the back up.

I think you can buy those 3M pads (sticky on one side and rubber on the other). You can cut them and place them over the keyboard "feet" are

hold your keyboard by the ends and give it a gentle twist in the appropriate direction (i.e. right hand twsit upper right, left hand twist lower left. or left hand twist upper left, right hand twist lower right)

Hope that makes sense. My quick fire felt unlevel before. It was just the ABS back cover that was a little warped.

The feet will accumulate dust and become slipper on a surface. just wipe down.

Nah it literally doesn't even touch the surface for whatever reason. So I just gotta get some 3m rubber thingies. Using some paper atm to prevent it from sliding.

This is what I have to do with my Filco occasionally, definitely give it a shot.

That is actually amazing. Did you remove the rubbet feet so the shelf liner would be level?

dont know how it is with the das but my noppoo keyboard is pretty level already with the rubber feet so i didn't see much point in removing them.

Do this. Walmart, Target, even the dollar store has some non-slip pads and stuff that can easily sit under your keyboard. I use them all around the house for certain applications as well.
