lol underrated comment

"why does this guy own 15 desks?? What a weirdo!"

How? He's basically homeless now. :p

Leave on the sun light and they'll be like how the... but it's night right now!

"Why is this table so fucking heavy? What kind of wood is that?! I'm not carrying it"

😂😂😂😂😂😂for real

yea i mean this guys is actually amazing in my eyes, his ingenuity is mind boggling

the gap filler thing actually made me say holy f*ck out loud

i missed that part at first so thank you for calling it out so I could go back

i still don't understand how it works. he only spent like 2 seconds talking about it

I think the desk is water proof since there are no visible cuts, but I could be wrong

@@superkhangfn8593 with that spring loaded piece of wood at the back of the screen, it's unlikely to be water proof

"on the inside" quite literally

It actually makes no sense to ne

not just impressive, extremely satisfying too!

so simple, yet extremely effective!

if I had to guess it would be that he used a router bit set that has bit profiles that are inverted shapes to one another, so he cut a groove out of it using one bit, then used the matching bit to cut the peice that fits inside.

@@cristianruske2875 sure it doesn't to you

It’s been that way for a while! DIY Perks desks are always better than LTTs

There was no competition lol.

And let's not forget the water cooled computer.

LTT had a completely different goal. Though the second cooling system in this video is way better than LTT's.

LTT can't compete with this anymore, their volume requirements to keep up with YT algo has lowered quality.

ngl he used eco friendly wood veneers here

That was a genius simple and elegant solution !

It's just an optical illusion powered by selective & careful camera angles.

The initial images he showed in the video looked so sleek, I was very intrigued. And then after he starts building it's this massive chonky thing, and I was very confused. Then he showed the amazing edges and I was very impressed.

Yesss

indicates integral integrity inclusivity inspiring irresistible infectiousness imao. 🎬🎬🎬

🤦🏽

There could be half of the coolers, with smaller fans, but then the noise..

Half size nactua fans?

they do. He is not running out of ideas. in terms of what he can build or will build next, I can't even imagine it.

I was actually wondering if he would consider working with some kind of fabrication shop to build custom blank desks. If he did this to scale I imagine it would sell a few units. Not a ton but enough maybe to justify some cost/time cutting measures. He's made plenty of stuff that I imagine would sell in enough volume to come out of full custom pricing into merely "very high end" pricing

The hidden monitor + input device setup is amazingly cool. Would also be cool to have a button built into the lift so it can tell the computer to go to sleep when closed. Personally though, I'd use a low-power mini PC instead of putting so much work into a massive heat exhaust system.

He literally could've used some springs and a latch to make it open with a press of a button

@@thioga1you literally could post a video on your own channel of you doing a better job. We wait in anticipation.

its legit crazy to think about DIY perks making such high quality stuff alone while LTT legit has an army and half of their stuff gives out garage DIY vibes

DIY Perks's dad is a wonderful craftsman, absolute GOAT on a build team!

@@martinfletcher9699 That's just their style I guess.

@@martinfletcher9699 With their whole team of engineers, LTT could even build a desk even thinner and more impressive than this, but it would take months if not over a year, which I’m sure this did too, so it simply wouldn’t be practical if you’re not going to sell it in large quantities.

@@martinfletcher9699 Linus & Co. are just too immature, impatient, and irresponsible to be able to pull off something even *close* to this. They are fun to watch, but *_bloddy_* frustrating at the same time.

its so perfect!

We love our KZfaq engineers who if they don’t have a public sighting every 2 weeks we have to assume they died to high voltage, don’t put disrespect on their names

You are fricking right A self made craftman engineer is better than any of those paper engineer

I can name a few youtubers that gained my respect over the year👍​@@skydivenext

I like the erratic style of some youtuber engineers. But sometimes it's nice seeing an actually sensible and functional product in the end. Stuff Made Here has similar high quality projects, although they are on the less sensible side xD.

@@z0bi_ cuz only genius do it like that most of the engineer on youtube are engineer by paper but not actual engineer just going doing stuff they like at absolute lazyness but stuff made here and diy perks are craftman engineer that do it by actually caring about their final product

Ha, I was also thinking that Linus would be watching and thinking he couldn't get the same finish. This is awesome!

Yeah definitely agree there. At least it's not veneer this time so he has the option to sand any scratches out lmao

magnet w/ computer is also kinda risky

@@eeeee11235eh not really. Unless you have a super strong magnet you aren’t breaking anything. Even a strong neodymium magnet from amazon wont break anything. Trust me Ive literally tested it on my phone and pc.

@@eeeee11235 Wait, do you not know how electronics work? There's no hard drives, so there's no issue. Nothing else is severely affected by the magnet

@@eeeee11235 false with modern pcs. Only hard drives interact magnetically.

I couldn't agree more. it makes for a more authentic feel :)

well, now make a hidden room, behind a library that opens with a voice activated spell :D

​@@ivovass195Could use more foam bricks as well

Thanks!!

yeah but some of the hot air will rise into the fans again so the blowing effect would get reduced.

Well, it would be great if he would make his project files (CAD etc..) available like e.g. GreatScott does it on every single one.

Then you have not seen AppliedScience 😅

Mark Rober is good as well

I get the sentiment, but tech KZfaqrs are not more qualified to do advanced engineering projects. Not to mention the loose definition of "tech KZfaqr" since this guy is a KZfaqr that creates most his content around tech.

If you've seen the video about modding the Canon R5, I highly recommend it. This should clear any doubts that "this guy" actually _is_ a tech youtuber :).

Not sure I agree to the sponsor fitting the video 😆 This was like watching a lambourghini being built and by the end the mechanic asks you if you'd like to buy a kia picanto w/o climate control

⁠@@rpals5412Huh? How? The legs are literally a part of the desk and they‘re way more advanced than any regular legs? He specifically mentioned that they can be combined with any desktop of your choosing. In your example it‘s like advertising the tires you used on your lamborghini after showing how perfectly it performed on a race track. Same as here, you can use those tires on a cheaper car or a super sports car. If this doesn‘t fit the video then Idk what sponsorships he should take at all.

@@rpals5412 Well then you're never going to be pleased. I've seen two flexispot sponsors. This one, and one for StyroPyro. They know how to pick their sponsors to showcase their desks well.

I wouldn't even allow any drinks in the same room as this bad boy.

Surely he has to have waterproofed the compartments or something. If not yeah no drinks allowed within 30 feet.

maybe if you have a silicone/any kind of water resistant mat on the desk, it could protect it from any possible liquids.

@@nathanw5431considering he didn’t show that? No

I honestly think it's a fire hazard considering how he's electrifying copper tape to power the fans. The adhesion on that stuff is absolutely terrible and due to the nature of PC gaming having sudden loads + being mounted on brass that's rapidly heated & cooled makes it a disaster in waiting. The changes he did at the end is also going to result in restricted air flow since the output is so close to the wall and a fan snagging hazard for toes beneath the desk, not to mention the powerful magnet constantly being grinded an inch away from sensitive electronics.

​@@Coecoo add the oled burn in and you have a certain disaster. If the electric/electronic parts don't blow up or start a fire, the expensive oled will get a serious case of burn in. I would give the inner parts more room to breathe, and possidly have an upward facing exhaust at the back, and definitely add a switch to turn off the monitor when the lid is down.

@@Coecoothe fans are blowing away from the user

@@snjert8406 Pushed up right against the wall? I don't think so.

@@Coecoo I mean, the motor hubs with the stickers are facing the inward side of the table. So, if they function like any computer fan, they're blowing away from the table.

It would probably cost as much lmao

i wouldn't pay corpa hacks a dime for this. diy or pay the guy. no corpo zone!

@@xe8905 worth it

anyone but corsair they are super expensive, he could have went with different fans and saved a lot!

Why corsair? The only thing from them are the fans lol

Yeah but he was actually building viable pc to use himself not just project to show off

@@Raderade1-pt3om and it's likely the build he's using for editing, as it contains massive amount of NVMe SSD storage, even tho he could probably build an invisible and completely silent NAS server with insane compute power and storage, maybe with a server CPU, like the most powerful AMD EPYC (9654P) that has 96 cores and 192 threads, which alone can be tricky to cool down with it's 360W default TDP, then all the drives, which requires some cooling as well sure, a NAS server does not require a GPU, so it might not require a massive cooling solution like the desktop PC, but some airflow for the drives and a good enough cooler for the CPU, that's all he would need, and if it's running a local VPN with port forwarding for it to work, he could essentially connect to it with everything he owns for "unlimited" private cloud storage (it's easy to setup and use Nextcloud and OpenVPN, which are 2 good services for selfhosting)

I get what you're saying but they would. Like heating and cooling are some of the biggest concerns with any pc build and pretty much all of them do discuss it. Benchmarking and temperature results are major components of the pc crowd.

Great build, but the cooling mechanism makes no sense. A 480mm radiator is like £90. How much cheaper was it to order 40 of those, weld them together with solder and the copper piping for it all and the extra like 6 fans that are about £30 each. And if it were cheaper, it stil ldoesn't seem worth it for the poorer performance. Nor does it justify it given the £2000 GPU, £500 CPU and £500 of steel, £2000 monitor etc etc.

@@user-ds8rj2vc4v Yeah 90 for normal radiator. But radiators like that from old servers are basicly free. Ofc price is without work and soldering things. You compared price for radiator against price of costs of those cpu coolers + work + solder things + fans. What he said in video and compared was cost of 40x cpu coolers vs radiator. I bet if you build ur own PC you dont compare pre-built system cost against your hardware with ur assembling worktime - 20€ /hr...

@@nonamenosurname8516 nobody gives away so much copper for free, you are looking at 20-30 bucks per heatsink with most sellers.

yes but it's a DIY channel, a flat sceen and a gpu cant be custom buildt, a refrigeration system can be made and it's also cheap.

@@nonamenosurname8516 Even if they were £1 per server cooler, the cost of the copper piping alone would close the gap. That's ignoring the £200 of fans he attach. So he went for a more expensive solution, that was worse in performance, heavier and takes up more space while also making more noise. So no, ignore the time spent (even if it has value) and the way he didn't wouldn't have been cheaper. While also being worse in literally every metric.

a lapdesk, a desklap ?

deskfold

And close all your tabs

You could probably trick windows into treating it like a laptop lid

Microcontroller, reed switch, small magnet, have that emulate a keyboard and emit the Sleep key code when the lid is closed, compared to the rest of the build it would be an extremely easy piece to put together. That is, of course, assuming the power button hooked to the motherboard isn’t able to be tapped into; if it was, you could just repurpose that connection and handle it with a GPIO connection.

@@jake360flip how can someone be so real

Him and his Dad have the same fashion sense and can share clothes, which is nice.

I mean, he had to put everything together to test it out because that's probably when the actual air flow restriction hit. Sure, glueing the wood could have been put for later, but looks like the wood never came in the way of disassembly.

and that's something he can fix for the next generation 🔥

I think that's why he mentions it's an " ENDGAME" build a few times. I mean really where do you go after this?

Watch basically homeless no wires build sponsored by flexispot an insane amount of coding to get it to work

Not going to lie, it's a nice uppy downy desk. You could sell lots of these and feed the starving millions.

​@@travisash8180Unfortunately, you couldn't. This would be an absolute disaster to manufacture at scale. It would be a minor miracle if you could sell these for less than 10K even if you were producing thousands of them.

I hope everyone likes this comment so he sees it. Great ideas.

The LED’s are right where they belong, not on the build.

think of all the FRAMES he's losing from not having RGB!

how are you going to put a coil if the frame is made of aluminum?

​@@gonsanbo In between. The wood cover and aluminium. Or to make another cut into aluminium.

nah wish he'd upload more tbh

Came here to say exactly this. Clever and inoffensive advertising.

Thought this too. Only time I've never fast forwarded through a sponsor ad.

Look for iSponsorBlock it auto skips in-video ads for you automatically

Blacktail Studios also did a sponsored spot recently, and that desk turned out beautifully, too.

Agree. Also I've got one of their desk mechanisms (had it for 3 years now) and it works really well, would recommend.

Most of the raw materials are relatively inexpensive. Swapping the PC components for mid or low end components would make this much more affordable. You’d still have to be an engineering genius like Matt to get that hidden monitor hatch setup, though :P

Yeah i also noticed that this lad does love his brass 😹

@@rzkrdn8650 the same as cooling systems, I think there is no a single project that he made without adding a fancy cooling system XD

I wish you could go down to your Best Buy and grab the newest Desk with Invisible Monitor & KB&M Compartment like any every day product. It's just so practical. Saves so much space.

Yea, would end up costing 10k+, but if i was rich i would totally buy one. Its literally the dream setup for anybody.

“Desk PC Cases” have been an idea for a while but they’ve failed to capture market share.

​@@JC-Alan are some of them like this? Most of the ones I've seen have been "gamer" focused with rgb and a glass top that shows everything. Basically the opposite of this.

@@htsunmiku TBH, no, most are gamer focused like you said, but that's not what prevents them from gaining market share. It's that they are an absolute pain in the ass to move. And people move a lot.

Yea... you could totally reproduce this diy with an engineering degree, an endless budget and a wood working father. Totally doable for the average person.

looks like someone doesnt have a father, a engineering degree AND the budget; which isnt even that hard to lower since hes using ultra high specs...

@@celsonjunior9376 Looks like someone wasn't paying attention during English lessons It's "AN" Engineering degree!

Yeah those other “DI-WHYyyyyyyyy” videos are definitely ruining the acronym

@@Lamster66 It's OR not AND too. ;)

Agree. I'm sure he only showed this one bigger issue and simply didn't talk about many other smaller issues he had to work around. If you watch the youtuber stuff-made-here you will see much more approaches that didn't work. So don't be disapointed when doing DIY, failiure is normal!

Hidden button underneath the desk lol

Maybe if the button was flush in the wood, but even then, a strong magnet is way cooler. Essentially a key that you have to know about. You can find a button relatively easily....

that can be done easily. just put some dc motor with big ratio gears on the sliding rail and hidden button somewhere and donediggitydeal

Man still fucking insane even when u realise the amount of effort

If this was ever on sale i would buy it no matter the cost!

Wish he integrated the flexible capability somehow too. Or did a triple.monitor setup

Honestly for practical application it is just easier and cheaper to have a Laptop instead of a desktop PC. It is portable, can be used anywhere (also as a Television replacement) and stored out of sight if not in use.
