Everybody always doesn’t mention the part about the springs getting tangled, I was so confused the first time I bag lubed, thank you for mentioning that, beginners need to hear so they don’t learn the hard way.
You can make cherry profile keycaps work with north facing switches by hole punching semi thick paper and evenly pushing it down the stem hole of the keycaps. The paper will act as a spacer giving the keycaps enough room to press without the interference issues. The paper can easily be removed aswell with needle tweezers. This simple technique literally saved my build, now I can use high quality keycaps and still get great sound out of them.
@@HipyoTech the interference issue is caused by like less than a millimeter of space, after putting the spacers there isn’t a noticeable increase in overall height. It %100 works for me, and I haven’t seen anyone else do this method. Easily the most simple and easy mod for such a huge issue in this community. I used a leather hole puncher for a smaller hole, but I just assume most people have a hole puncher and not a leather hole puncher.
I really enjoy the Idobao videos because I want to get into the hobby, and it seems like a nice affordable option :D I like how you said having north facing LEDs isn't an end all for the board, and suggested other options than Cherry for it :)
Great overview and camerawork as always. I love my Cherry short bois, but my new favorite profile is MT3 - nice and tall like these. When I do want to use the Cherry caps, though - I might just go for a switch that won't interfere with them, like any of Kailh's Box Silent switches, Archon's Art Box versions, or the upcoming Box Creams. A few other switches have housings that will clear, but they are less obvious and I've yet to make a list.
Great video man. I hope to build my first keyboard soon once I get some free time. I’ve been using a Razer Blackwidow for a few years now because at the time I didn’t even know there was such a thing as a keyboarding community or anything lol.
OMG the sound after lubing is music to my ears. I JUST got into mechanical keyboards after having to choose a keyboard and mouse for a desktop i have. My biggest regret is not doing more research before just buying any old keyboard. I had no idea how huge the hobby was, or how amazing the boards can sound. Mine in comparison sounds, well, like the $50 I paid for it lol. Not hot swapable, no true RGB, just set rainbow colour... and the stabilizers.... ouch. But being low income, this is as good as its going to get for a long while. I simply cannot justify buying a new, much more expensive board because it sounds and feels better lol. Though i do wish. Anyways i enjoyed the video :)
I saw that "stem holder"... That's like the refillable pencil I have somewhere in one of my drawers. I could use that for this purpose too. Here it was common in the 1980-90's.
If anyone is buying this keyboard they should use non cherry profile keycaps like the Drop Skylight sets that are good quality for shine through keycaps.
CHALLENGE: Take 1 shot for every time the word "Lube" is mentioned. Great video, as a newer entry to the custom keyboard builder club this was very informative. I am still in the very early stages of piecing together a kb, trying to settle on form (full/88/61) first as I am all over the place as far as use goes.
Those lube line though Looked like you were about to snort the bahjeesus out of them!!! lol I may try this keeb and compare it with Drop alt High Profile Good vid!
This sound so beautiful and the keycaps looks pretty 💞 and I wanna ask is these keycaps good for typing like a 9 hour typing? Thanks..im newbee to this world thanks
Have you seen the classic anime Fist of the North Facing LED? It’s about the heroic tale of Kenswitcho as he maneuvers the post-apocalyptic world as the heir of the Hokuto Switchken school of martial arts. He can defeat an enemy by hitting several of their hidden pressure points and listening for hollowness. He was really famous for saying “Omae wa mou, shindeiru,” which translates to “you are objectively wrong.” It’s a pretty cool show, you should check it out.
Do you might know when I can get one of those keyboards? 😊 I don’t care about north or south facing LED’s, as I am not going to use them anyway. I just want to get my first kinda custom keyboard and like the simple look and form factor. At first I wanted to get the id80 but this id67 form factor seems more convenient to me. Please excuse any spelling mistakes as English is not my first language. Keep up the great work, your videos really helped me deciding on what I want! Cheers! 😊
In a review of the Boba U4T's I saw that the travel on them is a bit shorter due to the long pole that they have, so they stop a bit sooner. In theory, you could use those switches (if you don't mind tactile) to circumvent the interfering.
first time lubing my switches a few hours ago. i was lubing my stock gateron red switches that came with my keychron k4 for 5 hours ish, lubed more or less 100 switch
I love the color scheme of those keycaps. but the profile I'm not sure about. it is growing on me but I don't think I'm entirely ready to put them on my keyboard just yet. I would like that set in the OEM profile.
there is a foam (which I am not sure if you already have it) that goes between the pcb and the case it used to be available on their website but now you can only find it on their aliexpress shop
Have a question, I have a razor 60 with the red optical lin switches and I like the feel. I also have a glourious 60%. For the glorious what would you recommend between gateron and thr kails, and which would feel like the red razor lin in the mini? Or any other switch you would recommend for bc I am new to this.
i just have a question, Im getting the Kemove 61 snow fox and I was wondering, if i switched out the keycaps, can I just get any double shot keycap, or do have to get specific ones for the keyboard
@@HipyoTech wish there was a better photo online. Ordered this for my MGA Alice that I'm going to mod heavily. Might need to pick up the MA 9009 to have less blue modifier keys to match the build.

@@aamirm9703 iirc yeah he is
nice sounds after lubing
Thanks for watching!
Ahahhahahahaahhahahahahaha
Can I say... I love you?
wildcat you kinda sus ngl
we’ve got a legend in the chat!
these affordable keeb videos are what keep me alive! makes me happy someone I reviewing ones in a good price range for normal people
Glad to hear it!
Damn Hipyo doing lube lines now. He’s a lube addict
Edit: don’t worry you’ll have some nice desk mats soon
I cant be stopped!!!!
THOSE KEYCAPS LOOK DELICIOUS
Please don’t eat the keycaps
I'm excited to see what you did with this
sounds so good! I can't believe that I actually made it to the premiere, instead of being 7 hours late.
Everybody always doesn’t mention the part about the springs getting tangled, I was so confused the first time I bag lubed, thank you for mentioning that, beginners need to hear so they don’t learn the hard way.
I remember when I thought you just pulled them apart and ruined springs 😭
@@HipyoTech I yeah I messed up one spring once
Sounds great with the mods! I feel the Durock L4s are underrated, and with lube and film, they become pretty amazing!
Right! Everyone hypes up the recolors but forgets the roots!
@@HipyoTech exactly this right here!

I have heard about this but have always been curious if this will effect how the row sits on other boards, I'll have to look into it more

I'm so happy to see that the Blue Cat keycaps perform well! I'm waiting for them and I was afraid I I ordered a flop.
I ordered both black and white sets. DO you know the average delivery time?
@@abdielmata In my case it took 3 weeks which, from China to Italy, is fast.
@@Miss_Wonderful1 thank you!

East Facing LEDs POG
Sounds awesome dude, was a great stream to watch and the end result is woooooooow
Great video man. I hope to build my first keyboard soon once I get some free time. I’ve been using a Razer Blackwidow for a few years now because at the time I didn’t even know there was such a thing as a keyboarding community or anything lol.
Ayy!! Check out my video where I build my friend a Drop Alt! He had a blackwidow as well!
those keycaps look really nice
But,what are they doe
@@wintervolckaert9217 they are blue cat keycaps
Love the quality of your vids man awesome work
Thanks Jeff!!

Earned a new sub. I actually have the Blue ID67 now with lubed NK Creams with Drop Camillos keycaps. Definitely a solid board!
what what? you dont have a million subs? your quality is way too good
loved the stream. Keep up the amazing work, please. I cant get enough of your content
Thanks! Will do!
East Facing LEDs, man! Great video, as always. Can you review the DNA65 keyboard? Looks like a much more beautiful K66.
Music to my ears 🎶

I won't make fun of your desk mat, but can I make fun of your typing accuracy? Good vid, glad I bought one of these boards!
That sounds good!!! Instant favorite right there!!!
Nice woody sound and beautiful shape, well done!
OMFG! The modded version sounds HOT AF. Yes, the spacebar sounds a bit weird but it's ok.
So well done, I have so much to learn LOL.
Thanks so much! Excited to see your future content!
Love the vid! Loving the idobao boards too, I’m sorry that some assholes don’t know what not to type.
Thanks for the support!
Can't wait for the west facing LEDs!

Those keycaps certainly aren’t my cup of tea. Great video, Hipyo!
They are very polarizing!
I brought the key caps because of this video. Zero clue what i brought but it looks cute n retro
Those lube line though
Looked like you were about to snort the bahjeesus out of them!!! lol
I may try this keeb and compare it with Drop alt High Profile
Good vid!
That board is full Skeletor I love it.
god that bp comment was golden

The manga is objectively better
I'd love to see some more MA keycaps man
I was expecting those caps to cost like 150 bucks holee
Your content is amazing!!
I recommend XDA keycaps. I am using them in my keychron k6 which has north facing switches. sounds great.
Do you might know when I can get one of those keyboards? 😊

Another banger vid
Never thought of trying that profile of keycaps, might have to cop after that sound test :D
Damn those keycaps are purdy
Those caps are fire 😍
As a professional musician with very dexterous thumbs.... I HIGHLY recommend stem holders, it's not just you LOL.
That mat is a Warrior

You can also use cream stems in durock housings to make a linear version.
Love the fact I bought gmk red samurai for a north facing switch board
first time lubing my switches a few hours ago. i was lubing my stock gateron red switches that came with my keychron k4 for 5 hours ish, lubed more or less 100 switch
and keychron k4 is north facing btw almost every 96% keyboard are
Those keycaps are insane
I’m sold on the keycaps😩😩😍😍
6:00 shots fired
What's the original white keycap?
I love the color scheme of those keycaps. but the profile I'm not sure about. it is growing on me but I don't think I'm entirely ready to put them on my keyboard just yet. I would like that set in the OEM profile.
East facing LEDs!
there is a foam (which I am not sure if you already have it) that goes between the pcb and the case it used to be available on their website but now you can only find it on their aliexpress shop
northfacing led > southfacing
need that shine thru keycaps
this is clean
キーキャップめっちゃかわいい
Nice video man, but which keycaps are these please?
Video Idea: Modify a keyboard so it has East facing LEDs. That could be interesting.
Nice SM7B lol I can recognize it just from the grill
nice video! what typing test did you use?
Have a question, I have a razor 60 with the red optical lin switches and I like the feel. I also have a glourious 60%. For the glorious what would you recommend between gateron and thr kails, and which would feel like the red razor lin in the mini? Or any other switch you would recommend for bc I am new to this.
if i bought this keyboard during the preorder will i get the northfacing or southfacing LEDs ?
thank u idobao guy sensei
Do you know if MA Keycaps fit on the GMMK Pro?
how do we click the f1 f2 f3 buttons on these kinda keyboards???
7:26
The joy when Hipyo gets 69 wpm
I love the way those keycaps look but when I go on their website the keycaps look way more ble but yours are purple?
just woke up to this gem
Good morning
@@HipyoTech tyyyy
I lubed my self with an even layer of krytox 205g0 and I’m the smoothest linear ever
Where can you get this board currently?
It will be on the Idobao website ~April
What keycaps those look fire
they are called MA blue cat
i just have a question, Im getting the Kemove 61 snow fox and I was wondering, if i switched out the keycaps, can I just get any double shot keycap, or do have to get specific ones for the keyboard
Hi,
Can these keycaps be used on rk71?
Looking good...
I'm here to bully the deskmat
what is the product you use for the stem holder, can I have the link
i hope this wouldn’t have esd issues just like what happened to the ID80 V2 (January-Feb batch?)
The space Bar sounds like nothing other than the bottoming out
when the id67 comes out i will just copy this build cause i got nothing better to do
what do you call those round ball keycaps?
where can i buy the 62g springs?
Great video. Thank you. Are the bluecats alpha keys blue or purple. It's kinda hard to tell from a phone.
Kinda a mix of the two tbh
@@HipyoTech wish there was a better photo online. Ordered this for my MGA Alice that I'm going to mod heavily. Might need to pick up the MA 9009 to have less blue modifier keys to match the build.
Man i wish there were more iso options
