In this video I build the KBDcraft Adam keyboard, also known as the LEGO keyboard (The community calls it Lego but it is not real Lego bricks and not affiliated with LEGO in any way).
This just might be the BEST budget keyboard in 2023, but... there's a catch.

@musicbyshadofox Год назад

I'm so glad to hear that good things are being said about this keeb even from someone who doesn't like building lego. I can guarantee that this keeb is a lot better in the more recent version! It's also got a few new separately bought accessories, such as a corkwood mat and wristwrests. The only problems I experienced were the instruction booklet, and my adam does have a bit of a bowing issue. Other than that, I've actually built a bit of an incline, so it's a little more comfortable to type on. Tape mod, and I threw a part of the pcb packaging in the case for a bit of extra sound dampening. For my very first mechanical keyboard, I love this keyboard to death.

@Pbergloff Год назад

I found your videos the other week and have been watching them each night mesmerized by how you make keyboards sound. I’ve always liked the idea of building keyboards but never delved deeper (I’m using a stock EVGA Z15 which is.. tolerable). I just bought a Zoom75 kit with the screen, some Wuque switches, and GMK Zen Pond keycaps. Very excited for when it all comes, and I can’t wait to start building!!! Thanks for all the helpful vids!

IT IS NOT Knockoff the System to build in the Lego style has long lost it's patent and Lego didn't even invent it themselves! It's just a different Brand. You wouldn't call Mega Construx a Lego Knockoff would you or they couldn't operate while infringing on anything.

Hello Hipyo Tech, I have a beginner question. So, I “started” my keyboard hobby about 8 months ago (I say, “started” bc I really want a keyboard but I’m to broke to buy it but its ok bc I’m getting there and saving up. Almost bought a keyboard. Jeez why are they so expensive) but I still have no answer on the question: How do you know what type (plate mount or screw in stabs) of stabs work for your keyboard? And Hipyo if you would answer that question, it would be greatly appreciated and I need to know. I love watching your vids and its what got me into the hobby and have run out of vids to watch so I will continue to watch every single vid that comes out immediately. Thank you so much Hipyo!😅😢

@AleksiJoensuu 10 месяцев назад

Hey if it helps at all, when I was a kid, we just had plastic bags or boxes full of someone else's hand-me-down Lego. No sets, no instructions, no pictures, just a bag'o'stuff and whatever you felt like making. Didn't even know there WERE sets and instructions until I saw them in a magazine or something. So yeah, you don't HAVE to play with Legos with a tedious instruction set, instead you can just go straight for the "LOOK HOW TALL I CAN BUILD THIS TOWER - Oh..." experience.

It's amazing just how far Mechanical Keyboards have come in terms of cost and OOB experience. Used to be you'd spend $200+ for a basic backlight-less Cherry official board from Das Keyboard that was pretty meh by today's standards but better than the domes we were all otherwise used to, so you had to spend another $200 on bits and bobs to muzzle it nice, and hours of soldering if you didn't like the stock Cherry switch options. Now you can get $100 boards that are flat-out better out of the box, there's only maybe $120 in parts generally worth upgrading to (less if you started with something already upper-tier like the Keynovo, or one of Akko's boards), and install it all in just over an hour (or less if you went custom from the start).
