Somehow missed this video!! I’m amazed, I love what you did with the macropad! The brass weight is a great touch, I wish I had the tools to polish metal pieces to a mirror finish (would be so good for another board weight I have). Love the look and I bet the added heftiness to the finished build is super nice (compared to mine which is super light). Although you do make it seem like I took a whole year to ship the parts lol I promise it was a fast gb 😂😂 Also…how did you solder the switches in if you soldered the microcontroller in first?? Was that why the title says a misadventure? Hope that all worked out, I know microcontroller desoldering is terrible
Thank you!! Yeah the brass weight was a last minute addition since I felt like the build needed something more! The switches aren’t actually functioning as of now, since I have been too lazy to buy the mill Max sockets to finish the build, more projects demand my attention!
@@bitdrive7971 good luck! can’t wait to see the upcoming projects you have planned. although you’re going to have a really hard time with the millmax sockets i think, i don’t know how you’re going to get the ones for the center 2 switches in with the promicro controller already soldered in
I know right? I used to have this agreste store one at some point, worst soldering experience ever, heating up a spoon with a lighter would have worked better 😆
Yesss the shorts seem to do well view wise, plus it’s kinda fun making and watching them, just having this high energy package of how a project came to be
Thank you so much! I do try my best :) I’m very pleased with the lighter color of the ash being surrounded by the darker walnut, adds a nice bit of contrast imo
Incredible project, congratulations. I would find it amazing, if the underside of the keys were the golden material you used on the base. Just an opinion from my point of view. I'm modifying a bento project too, but in 3D printing.
dude. i swear i was halfway through this and totally thought you had several million subs. i honestly can't see any way this video could be improved. insanely underrated
Right??! I’m always so let down when scrolling through insta and seeing his posts. They all look amazing and I would buy them all! I guess at least my bank account is happy I can’t 🤣
This is beautiful, i love how it turned out! Asking as a newbie- does removing the spacers from the pcb affect performance at all? Were they intended to help with cooling, or were they in place for other reasons?
Wait so how did you attach this to the psu shroud that is literally what I was looking for an install for because I wonder if this would work on my Thermaltake core p6.
