im loving the rise of gummy o-ring boards, stuff like the phantom65, bakaneko, and now the ciel are making getting into the keyboard hobby so easy and pretty too
I'm so glad my girlfriend got into the groupbuy for this. I might steal it from her. I have a Bakeneko right now and I love it. I'm pleasantly surprised with the innovations in the hobby over the last year. You don't need to spend $$$$ to get a quality experience these days. Kinda wish I just got into the hobby now, instead of about a decade ago lol.
The Bakeneko is one of my all time favorite boards. Simple yet mighty! Great video! Would you be able to produce a sound test of the Bakeneko with foam under the PCB?
great vid man. I was just wondering if you could try out some different plates and swtiches before the group buy ends. Im looking to pick it up and would greatly appreciate some more sound tests!!
I love your video and review man! May I ask what hardness o-ring you used, the stock 50A? And would you recommend a softer 30A with your typing experience of it?
trying to decide between this one and the other bakeneko on Bredworks right now. The main differences seem to be the inclusion of a brass weight and use of 6061 alu on the Ciel whereas the bredworks one uses 6063 alu and no brass weight. any ideas/suggestions between the 2? I'm told 6063 alu costs more and has less issues with streaking, but your proto seems to have had a good finish
Fantastic video :) liked and subscribed. This keyboard looks like a great deal. I’m looking for a 65% though as I use the arrows A LOT. Do you know if there is something similar in the 65% layout?
Imo it really isn't that hollow lol it's very clack reminds me exactly of the unikorn sure certain mods have slight hollowness but I mean happens with some gummy boards the alphas are perfect
@@nearLucid damn that's crazy my one from cannon keys is not that hollow lol. Same board but without the brass weight so mine should be even further hollow. Yes there is some slight hollowness but every oring mount board I've had has some sort of hollowness in the mods. My e6.5 even the otd356 mini has a little lol. That's just what happens with orign gummy mount boards for some reason but it does help overall with its sound regardless. This board is very clacky to me and not that silent it's got normal volume but I'm used to high end boards that have nice controlled poppy sounds. Volume doesn't bother me though. I will say that probably comes down to not having a weight it probably is slightly louder tbh. I know sometimes big weights in small boards can dampen things slightly. People would think the opposite. But hey just makes me happy I saved money and got the cannonkeys one as my beater/switch test board haha
would you reccomend screw in stabs or clip in stabs for the board? A lot of o-ring gasket mount boards reccomend clip in stabs but you used durock v2's on it, so did you have any issues or problems with the screw in stabs?
The more you take it apart, the looser the ring will get. Once you take it apart a few times, the inner assembly falling out becomes a normal occurrence.
