You know how you said you didn't want to make up bored with all these restoration videos? well, I don't know about everyone else, but I am absolutely LOVING these videos. PLEASE keep making more restoration videos :D
The ones he showed are SMK 2nd generation tactile switches, however in the M0116 he didn't show, it most likely had Alps SKCM Orange in it. shame we didn't get to see the good ones..
the 65th shadow got his wrist cut by the 63th shadow because 65th didn't let 63's sis play on 65's xbox. 65 says that this is unfair and cut 63's dick off as revenge. 64 is clueless as to what is happening.
Great video! I grew up around Apple IIs and after delivering hundreds of newspapers, mowing dozens of lawns, and asking for money for two Christmases and birthdays, finally bought a brand new Apple IIGS. Your restored keyboard and mouse looked like the ones that I took fresh out of the box all those years ago. Beautiful work! Keep up the memerizing content. :-)
I’d love to see you do a video on the mechanical key switches Alps electric produced, and all of the other various mechanical switches found in these vintage keyboards like the Dell AT101.
your daughter seems like she would make good apprentice to you in restoring old computers and keyboards. i would love to see her make more appearances in your videos.
I really love the Raspberry pi, and when the Raspberry Pi 2 and A+ came out... I think it's safe to say I was excited. I can't wait for the next episode!
Watching you retrobrighting stuff is darn near orgasmic >.> its so satisfying seeing all that yellow staining go away leaving clean white plastic behind.
Awesome i love these restoration videos, keep it up! Also make sure you get a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, the new one, as it has a much faster CPU and twice the ram of the previous Pi.
Keyboards have actually gotten much worse now. Pretty much all keyboards today use terrible membrane switches, while these old keyboards all use proper, clicky mechanical switches which last for a lifetime. Delicious!
thanks man! your method is AWESOME! Im restoring an amiga 1200 right now and I was stumped on how to use the hair salon peroxide on the keys. Any idea if i can leave it under a black light? would that work? (The sun is down right now)
john m - Well the most important thing is that apparently the video signal is compatible with DVI or HDMI. So all that is needed is to cut the wires and create a custom adapter to the HDMI port on the Raspberry Pi. The one reason I keep thinking about NOT doing the G4 though is that the Raspberry Pi is technically slower than the G4 already in there. So I've been thinking of maybe putting an Intel NUC inside of there or something.
The iBookGuy The raspberry pi has more MODERN hardware, though, and a lot more support for applications like web browsers, games, etc. compared to OS X 10.5, which is veeerrrrrry old.
I have that EXACT Apple mouse and it went under about the same treatment! I got it for 75 cents, a good deal, but it was filthy! Alcohol and some Peroxide + the sun sure gave it a nicer look.
The iBookGuy You should make a video on how to clean the Apple Pro Keyboards as well. I can't seem to get the keyboard separated from the bottom tray on mine and there's a lot of debris under it.
Restart this series, at least as either a joke or as information and a bit of a "Keyboards through the years" kind of thing where you collect each type of keyboard ever made and restore them
What if you submerged the keys in the correct orientation, and then used a clear piece of plastic to submerge them and the clear plastic. Or you could use tape or blue tack to stick the keys to the bottom of the container, and then fill it. It would take less peroxide and they wouldn't float. Although, I'm not sure if blue tack would dissolve or not.
"I don't want to bore you with a hundred keyboard restorations..." Bore me! Bore me! For God's sake, bore me!
That's what I hear from my parents' bedroom every night. Are they....cleaning keyboards?

The 64th Shadow What happened to the 65th shadow
the 65th shadow got his wrist cut by the 63th shadow because 65th didn't let 63's sis play on 65's xbox. 65 says that this is unfair and cut 63's dick off as revenge. 64 is clueless as to what is happening.

Wow. I never noticed how yellow old peripherals really are until I saw restored ones.
You're not boring us! We love all of your videos! Or ... at least I do.
Stefán Daníel The iBookGuy Agreed!
Me too!
More of these restoration videos please.
Yes. Bother us with 20 min or more for good restorations. They are good to watch all the time.
I love how thorough of a job you do, and how systematically you do it. Really good video; I'm glad I subscribed.
You're really good ._. Can you do more restoration project videos?
ThunderBow no
"I don't want to bore you with like 100 different keyboard retoration videos." - The 8-Bit Guy, 3:35
You sir are a savior. I restored my IIGS Keyboard, and it looks like new, 30 years later.
Can't wait for the Raspberry Pi video!
I honestly enjoy viewing restoration on the keyboards and mouse! I would love to see more
If you made a video on every keyboard out there I would watch them all!!! Great work keep it up!!!
You are awesome, please continue making these informative and fact full videos !!!
I am really enjoying these keyboard/computer restoration videos,please keep on making them if you can.
"we started with the mouse. First, it is going to need some Alcohol....".
Me too, mouse. Me too!
Loving these restorations, i find them strangley satisfying
This is probably the 15th time I've watched this video, because this is so satisfying...
I always look forward to your videos. thanks for sharing.
I think it's safe to say the iBook guy has the most original tech content out there. Liked as always!
I honestly really liked these restoration videos. It would be great if you could do more! :)
Thanks for this video, I recently acquired an old ADB mouse and I was trying to do some research on how to clean it.
How dare you not to bore us with hundred keyboard restauration videos! 😅😅 This never gets old.
Your channel is literally about everything I know and love... Fantastic! :)
Oh my gosh - that's so awesome! I would have never believed that this works so well until I saw this video... Awesome!
Even years after I found this channel, I still enjoy all of this channel's videos, old or new
This is so satisfying to watch. I wanna go buy a bunch of old plastic parts and restore them just for the hell of it!
this just makes me so happy. It looks so clean :)
That's why i subscribed. Videos that are like this. Just love them.
I can't wait to see those upcoming videos! Great video by the way. :D
Love these restoration videos!
Like if you want the iBook Guy to make the "OS X Leopard, is it obsolete?" video! :D
2 years ago his name whas the iBook guy, he changed it because he dit more than iBooks
Gleb Zveryansky ass
+poicly I like 8-but guy better
I would love to see you restore more Apple products, heck I'd love to see you restore any computer hardware!!
I love your resoring type of videos
Hey dude, I just want to say your videos are amazing.
I love do you repair old things :)
I could watch you restore keyboards until the day I die
I would love to see more restoration videos!
Please keep doing the restoration stuff. They're very interesting
I’d love to see you do a video on the mechanical key switches Alps electric produced, and all of the other various mechanical switches found in these vintage keyboards like the Dell AT101.
Nice job, looks brand new.
your daughter seems like she would make good apprentice to you in restoring old computers and keyboards. i would love to see her make more appearances in your videos.
I love these keyboard restoration Videos!
Could you make one about the Pro Keyboard and Pro Mouse?
As usual, very interesting video. Thank you very much :)
I really love the Raspberry pi, and when the Raspberry Pi 2 and A+ came out... I think it's safe to say I was excited. I can't wait for the next episode!
The Planet Express shirt alone earns my Like. 👍
I really love these videos! I don't know why.
Watching you retrobrighting stuff is darn near orgasmic >.> its so satisfying seeing all that yellow staining go away leaving clean white plastic behind.
I would have thought restoring keyboards and mice would be the most boring thing to watch but this stuff is exhilarating!
Wow, awesome! Keep up the good work!
Love the videos keep them coming
,wow just like fresh and new out of the box,amezing.
I love you man, never seen such results
I restored my Macintosh Performa keyboard with your video , Big thanks :D , I like it !
I really like your restoration videos, you should do more
these are really interesting and good plz do more!!!
gotta love the old alps switches
Awesome i love these restoration videos, keep it up!
Also make sure you get a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, the new one, as it has a much faster CPU and twice the ram of the previous Pi.
Those switches really looked like they needed a proper cleaning inside. I can only imagine the scratchyness.
Could you do more of these keyboard restoration videos?I find them interesting and fun to watch
WOW! Huge difference!
Hey bit i do thank you because your excellent videos made me a A+ student thanks!
where can i find more videos like these? i already watched the whole playlist... they are really calming
Haha I just restored my blue berry keyboard got inspired from your last week's keyboard restoration.
Why is this so relaxing
Still waiting for that 100 keyboard restoration videos. Time to get you hooked on blue alps.
Love the Planet Express shirt! ❤
please keep making these restoration videos
My favourite keyboard restoration video
This video is so satisfying! :)
I love Alps switches so much.
Those key switches remembers to the Strum switches on Guitar Hero guitars.
I really like the IIgs' style of keys.
Keyboards have actually gotten much worse now. Pretty much all keyboards today use terrible membrane switches, while these old keyboards all use proper, clicky mechanical switches which last for a lifetime. Delicious!
Delicious?
You want to eat the keyboard????
i love these restoration vids make more
Awesome video btw do as much as this as you can I LOVE THEM!! Like +1
Idk why Im watching this but I'm enjoying it
Would this same method work on a imac g3 keyboard and mouse? thanks for all the awesome videos, really enjoying going through them all!
AMAZING!
Do an IBM Model M.
what a nice looking keyboard.
That's marvelous ...
I don't care what's getting restored I just want to watch stuff get restored
I did the same thing with my friend's Apple Macintosh SE. Except without the hydrogen peroxide part.
thanks man! your method is AWESOME! Im restoring an amiga 1200 right now and I was stumped on how to use the hair salon peroxide on the keys. Any idea if i can leave it under a black light? would that work? (The sun is down right now)
How about a raspberry pi in a g4 lamp style mac case
have been considering that as well. And I believe I can re-use the existing LCD inside the iMac G4.
I have heard people doing that the video power input is only 5 volts on it at least thats the rumor

The iBookGuy
I think that it would be even better to leave the G4 hardware alone, max out the RAM, and put the PowerPC port of Debian on it.
I have that EXACT Apple mouse and it went under about the same treatment!
I got it for 75 cents, a good deal, but it was filthy! Alcohol and some Peroxide + the sun sure gave it a nicer look.
I find this very satisfying

congrats on 500k
I want to be bored by hundreds of keyboard restoration videos, i want to!!!!
I love how the video ends abruptly after he says "I'm gonna find something really interesting to put this inside of".
After that he says” I’ll see you next time”
Restart this series, at least as either a joke or as information and a bit of a "Keyboards through the years" kind of thing where you collect each type of keyboard ever made and restore them
I love this dude :D
