Reply to comment by thisshiteverytime in I got some silent switches so I can Waka at work by btgrant76

In general, that should work just fine. The RK61 uses MX switches and the Durock Shrimp are also MX. The big question is whether the RK61 is a hot-swap board. If it is then, it's a simple matter of removing the current switches & swapping in new ones. If it's not a hot-swap board, you'd need to desolder the old & solder the new.

As soldering goes, removing & adding new switches is pretty straight-forward.

Pretty sure all the Royal Kludge boards are hot-swappable, don't quote me. Should be just fine removing the switches and replacing with preferable ones for sure.

Most are nowadays, yes. With the exception of their ‘standard orthodox’ tkl and full size offerings. They seem to be more focused on compact.
