As an ECE graduate and planning to create my own mechanical keyboard by 3d Printing plastic bottle filaments for my recycled themed MKB, this is what I'm following for my PCB except, I did designed mine from scratch using copper clad. You should be proud of yourself for this.
The editing is sick good luck on the channel
Anybody who knows anything about coding, electrical components (SMD soldering) and keyboards understands this is baller af...
My only experience is soldering JST connectors on faulty USB C daughterboards and coding a bunch of elementary Java programs but I do own more than 30 keyboards. I've built a few of them and also made custom Poron sheets of different thickness using my laser cutter for those I made and some factory made. THIS is next level though.
this is the most beautiful thing ive ever seen have my children
love what your doing showing the real work behind it all, ima go watch other videos now best of luck with the case and exams if thats still going on
Im so glad I live in Shenzhen. That's why there are so many incubators and startups here
This wasn't what I was looking for but I'm glad I stumbled upon this video. Love the humor and editing.
same here🤣
Nice vid mate, editing & vibe is immaculate, keep it up, subbed
I absolutely love this video and style. Now I need to find half the memes you posted so I can shamelessly reuse them somehow.
This shit was straight comedy bro 😂
I think you can make keycaps from resin. The silicone molds sounded pricey but it might be worth looking into
That's true. But I think my focus on the project as a whole was more about hand's on engineering rather than making something 100% from scratch, so it didn't make sense to spend some money making dozens of identical pieces from a mold I didn't design
good job great video im defintly gonna make my own keyboard from scratch now this looks fun
Awesome, I have zero knowledge on the microchip parts, and plan to build a custom pcb myself. You really motivate me through this sick editing vid
can't wait for the case!!
2012 TH-cam intros were bonkers, bring it back
I loved every part of this video. Keep it up.
This single video was more entertaining for me than any other videos I have watched in the past week ? Month ? Or maybe an year ? idk Awesome content ! 🗿
god damn the skill issue joke got me 10/10
Thanks, you saved me from hours of despair and depression.
this is the kind of video i love!
this is sick, very interesting
Banger video, I need part 2
5:12 As a programmer, I share your pain.
This guy’s sheer dedication is fucking wild🎉
2:18 SAN HOLO 🔥🎉 I enjoy this style of editing. The only keyboard video like it
the editing is quite sick actually
this video is cracked (literally)
wow u really deserve more subscribers!
nice video man
Perfect video
amazing video
I'm doing the same thing, but now waiting until you've done it so that you can make all the mistakes so that I don't have to! :D
Kevin... Good video!
hey kevin hyd?? so, for you to flash your firmware to your custom pcb, did you flash it from your usbc port?? or you use a custom pins to flash it onto the pcb??
I'm doing good, thanks for asking. I flashed from the USB C port using QMK Toolbox
hey, you do awesome stuff, could you teach us how to make the case please?
Thoroughly enjoyed the memes. But this also let me know that ... I am most likely too lazy to do this. Maybe. One day. maybe.
Now, make one with a trackpoint
cool.
Beauuuuuuutiful
Ngl, I really enjoyed this video! Well I am more noob than u , would you release/teach us how u did it ?
I am about to start the same trip… Build a split from scratch…
Screen'n'bake them SMDs!
subbed🤩🔥💪✌️🎉
1:16 its why im here,,,
Rip Manson
Atelier, so much potential, not enough plot.
Edit: Got it. Buy a PCB from Owl Labs/QWERTYKEYS and build my case around that.
why not take it to the next level and make a keyboard with the pointing stick and extra keyboard buttons. that would be more impressive
Still waiting for part 2
good video.🗿 but when is "next time when you make the case you guess"?
I'd have to say early next year, kind of waiting for that start of a semester grace period where I can have free time
@@koovin02 awesome. Here's my subscription
question what did you connect your Molex connection to i can't find anywhere telling me where it needs to be connected to on the chip my chip is the ATmega32U4-A
It's been 6 months dawg. Where's tha daaaamn case?
oh i use kicad:)
could you link the sped up video that you used in the intro for the mechanical keyboard lore
I used this video: th-cam.com/video/1NpNygIrnaQ/w-d-xo.html
You make fun of the past but at the same time use ancient atmega and qmk. Use new rp2040 and kmk. Rp2040 is widely available, costs just $2 and is more powerful. Kmk is much easier to set up and customize.
yo, dude. I was loving it. where the fuck is part 2?
working on it
@@koovin02
still waiting for the case
college exams 😭
Ur video made me laugh lol
hey man, how'd you handle esd and over current protection on your pcb?
I let the unified daughterboard handle it
Saw this literally in hopes i could see if my own esd protection is gud lolazo
i feel bad that you soldered everything yourself, normally I order the MCU seperate and use PCBA through jlc and just leave out the mcu
Excuse me fine sir but case when?
I predict early next year 🙏
make it 2.4 ghz wireless
How much did the pcb boards cost you?? 👀
Also, could you throw in the links please
$58 from JLCPCB. What links do you need?
does anyone have a tutorial on how ti create your own custom matrix.c?
Is there any way to contact you regarding a project !
your funny dude, sub
But brother you didn't link any links to your hardwork in the description to be utilized by us morons expecting to escape the hell you went through ? 🥺
God why are people using ATMega so commonly on these boards tho? there's stm32f0+ and esp32 chips for so cheap! I'd got with an nerf chip for wireless and stm32f0 for the main cheap. They can be so power efficient
Me personally, there's just more documentation which means more work done for me 💀
@@koovin02 oh sorry I hope that comment wasn't rude, reading it again my tone seems rude, I really wanna make a wireless keyboard with an efficient m0 chip
@@ameliabuns4058 no worries, you asked a valid question
@@ameliabuns4058 do u have any documentation on how to do that? Im planning on doing the same
@@svartak2338 you really just gotta learn embed dev and try it I guess? Not really!
berry nike berry like
5:36 XD
Hey man, i had a keybord i bricked with the wrong firmware, and i need to reprogram the pcb would you be able to help me withi this?
Hold down the reset button on the pcb then plug in the pcb. It should wipe the firmware and the pcb should show up on qmk toolbox again, then you can reflash.
@@koovin02 heck ya man love ya
what is the name of the song at the end?
If you mean the meme, th-cam.com/video/p-Z3YrHJ1sU/w-d-xo.html
Hey Kevin, whats the best email to contact you on for a similar project?
I put an email in my about me. Hopefully I'll remember to check it 💀
What is the last song?
DID YOU MAKE THE CASE??
working on it 😩
be patient and wait for another decade. he will eventually finish it
brooo upload
check again : )
can you pls send me th KiCad file i have to do this for school engineering lol
What diodes did you use?
1N4148W-TP
@@koovin02 Thank you so much ❤
Eh hi can u share the code I wanna try to make this too.
If you absolutely have to, here: github.com/FarlandDuck/horsie-65
Just remember there are better examples online and mine might be scuffed. Also the repo is messy since it was mainly for personal use
(is there a github for all of this? I'll love u forever if there is - platonically - unless???)
i think i remember having a private repo for the PCB but if you are talking about the case then that was mostly in fusion teams
@@koovin02 I’m looking for the PCB one at the moment - I don’t know if I’m missing anything at the moment.
@@hackrmomo If you must: github.com/FarlandDuck/horsie-65
please don't use it as a template, there are better keyboard pcb templates out there i assure you i had no idea what i was doing,
also it's kind of a mess. I recommend consulting the keyboard atelier discord server for help if you need it
@@koovin02 will do! I re-referenced the masterzen docs again and sent my pcb in prematurely. Fingers crossed for when it comes in!!
ur memes arent funny, but the horsie picture on the pcb was pretty sick cant lie
😢
i expected a serious video and i wanted to click off but i just couldnt…
Too many useless memes. How old are you? 10?
Can’t watch the video 0 volume level to 100000 and 5min meme for 2 secs video. It’s not funny, it’s actually annoying for such content.
