Building my very first custom mechanical keyboard!

Ғылым және технология

Thank you for watching my video!
There's a few things that I don't like about how this board turned out, but overall I'm very happy with my first build!
EDIT: I forgot to film it but I did lube the stabs with the same 205g0 and some dielectric grease.
Switches: Gateron Ink Black
Lube: Krytox 205g0
PCB: DZ60
Stabs: Zeal PC gold plated screw in
Plate: KBDfans full bronze
Case: KBDfans Tofu 60%
Keycaps: MAXKEY SA Miami Nights
I went with Gateron ink blacks because I really like linear's for gaming, and I like heavier switches, but I'll probably end up building another board in the future with some Box Navies at some point cause I luv me them clickies.

    Overlubed switches, been there man. Learn to love them because it’s pretty annoying to clean. Nice build though! Looks awesome.

    What do u mean exactly with overlubed switches what do hate about it? Is it the inconsistency? And where does he make a mistake from your perspective while lubing acording to your opionion.

    @@jenkmeier2406 Overlubed switches tend to feel mushy. The Tealios V2s are already *very* smooth when stock so a much lighter application of lube would've been better and sounded better too. By using too much lube the keypresses won't feel as sharp and responsive. The return would also feel sluggish and slow. It's very subtle but it's definitely noticeable.

    But the benefit is you get a slightly more dampened sound. Lol not worth though I overlubed my first tactiles

    8:11 I just wanna know if you clean up the flux before installing them. If you have not, please do yourself a favor with isopropyl alcohol so that the flux won't eat into your board when it gets old. Cheers

    That solder was really thick!. If you use one that is much thinner in diameter, its harder to over do it

    I see those solder balls, thats gonna be heckin bad to desolder once you decide to change switches, idk if you put foam in the bottom to have a muted sound or not?, but i saw the bandaid mod though, with electric tape? nice!
