@@justgio6516 Id say the hard part is acquiring all the extra shit he put into to the keyboard, it's not even a mod at this point lmao. Man made a whole new keyboard.
this is my comfort video, it lets me forget about everything for a bit. I've tried all these mods, they're all great. the bobapolias look great, overall super clean sound. probably my most rewatched video. I would fall asleep on this video if it was a bed. I would listen to it like a podcast if i was in a new country, feeling alone. i would sit with it at a park and feed ducks with it. this video feels like sitting on a lakeside hammock, watching the sunset. like soft rain on a window, without any worries. this video is hot chocolate and a fireplace to me.
The pennies for added weight is so big brained, I might actually have to try that on my rk61 pro! In fact this whole modding video is so creative, its really pushing keyboard modding boundaries I love it :D
A lot of your modding strategies seemed unorthodox but they worked out perfectly and by the end I could tell that you knew what you were doing. Never thought I would be saying this but, I want that rk61!
I had this Keyboard last year. It's a pretty amazing for modding even though the one I received wasn't hot swappable. One downside to it though is the ON/OFF switch at the bottom. Any case mods that raise the PCB will make the switch difficult to use. I wish it was in the side instead.
Just got Newmen GM610 and saw your video. I opened it up and realized that dimes were the only thing I could fit in the bottom, with a layer of gorilla tape. The grooves in the bottom of the case fit the width of the tape and dimes perfectly. I think I counted over 12 dollars worth of dimes in there haha. At least I know where they are! This thing turned out so great!!! The weight is absolutely amazing, and it feels like a high end board now. Thanks for the video and I'll keep you updated on how it is!
i love how just one of either keycaps or switches costs more than the entire original keyboard. lel but, man, the transformation is nothing less than magical.
Nothing's cheap about the RK61 except the price itself! I got mine 2 weeks ago and even stock it feels SO good just by changing the caps to an original set of NIPPON WAVE. Mine even came very well pre-lubed and with basically no rattle on the spacebar - I'm impressed with the stabilizers RK uses. Awesome board overall, I'd consider it even at 80-90 USD price.
The pennies is a perfect way for me to get rid of my spare pennies, since canada banned them years ago and the rusty ol’ things sit in my drawers collecting dust for years now, i might do this.
great video I really enjoyed it (but just a tip try speaking with more expression) aside from that the end result was amazing! I love ur videos keep up the amazing work bro!
v solid video for budget/plastic boards. with ergo keebs especially it can be hard to find a nice case even if youre willing to shell out the money for one. pennies + foam + tape like shown in this video completely changed the sound signature of my iris for like no cost, would really recommend 👍
Your desk is so pretty and this keyboard is so insanely modded, I love it. Where would you go for those keyboard rubber bands? I love my new little mechanical keyboard but it'd be fun to mess with all the same. :3

2) those blue switches were violence to my ears
absolutely true
I now know what you mean by the blue switches being violence. My ears feel numb.
the spacebar especially was fucking abhorrent

Although would be careful since the pennies are conductive, I assume the tape u put is enough to mask it
yeah, I haven't had any issues with it so far
Use dynamat or noico sound deadener instead. It's adhesive and has a similar weight effect.

The PCB doesn't sit higher on the keyboard because you used a gummy o-ring to mount it, it sits higher up because you layered pennies and a thick piece of foam in the case.

Could you theoretically, gummy o ring mount any cheap keyboard if you remove the stand offs and file down the cable hole, like the gk61 kit?
there's a possibility it could work with the gk61 as well, but for some keyboards like the tm680 it won't work because it has a weirder mounting style
Alr thanks
@@flurples does the seperate plate interfere or no. and is it only for tray mounts?

Did I understand correctly that you made one switch out of 3 switches ?

This is really amazing!!!! I wish the switches were still flush in the case, other than that I like the sounds.
