You can make your own version of this board: kbdfans.com/r?id=i9uofk
I MAKE A CHEAPER VERSION OF THIS HERE: • Recreating My Endgame ...
You can use a merropcb and buy an o ring and drop it in. For the best effect, you would need to dremel off the standoffs. Or.. just use kbdfans standoff covers for a "close enough" effect kbdfans.com/r?id=k4acmq. I think these come standard with tofus now, though.
I stream on Twitch at 6:00 PM PT on Mondays and on KZfaq at 6:00 PM PT on Wednesdays.

Definitely. I can appreciate a high qty Vega cuz it’s a good all around keyboard, but when I want to reach “endgame” and quit buying, I doubt I’d be happy with Walmart brand. I want something unique, rare, and personal. I think most people can understand that. Like a kbd67 lite is a banger value but having a board that is “enough” for you doesn’t necessarily qualify it as a grail board. It needs to be at least KIND OF hard to get. If it were easy, it would be called a purchase - not an endgame.

I'm lucky enough to have never really caught the "endgame" bug. I've found that my favourite thing is finding a bargain and giving a second hand board a new home. For me the idea that this inanimate object has a story, perhaps even several owners, is somehow more special than dropping cash on a limited production board. It's kinda dumb but it's allowed me to save some money at least. :) So now I kind of just observe the hobby from afar. I do sometimes get the itch to build some of the really weird things like the Reviung though.

lmao only keyboard fans could call a board that... 1. Is so poorly stocked and shipped that you have to make special arrangements with your bank and break a sweat trying to refresh a webpage to order 2. Is so shoddily made the first time around that it *yellows* with use 3. Makes you agree to an ugly color you admittedly don't even like because you have to *come to an agreement with another customer just to get your clearly defective and shitty board replaced* 4. Does not come with arrow keys you clearly need 5. Ends up with a sound you call "interesting" 6. Costs $500 for the privilege Endgame. You could not catch me getting past "ZOMG GET IT WITHIN 2 SECONDS OF RELEASE AND THE NON-UGLY COLORS SELL OUT EXTRA *EXTRA* FAST." I would not pay $9 for a sandwich that was sold to me that way let alone pay $500 for a keyboard. If it's not currently in stock, for sale, ready to ship, you are not buying a product you are buying artificial scarcity. Stop normalizing letting *plastic mold* companies treat you this way lmao.

My Certina DS Action Precidrive ended my watch addiction (or at least temporarily, but maybe forever who knows). It's obviously very far from "end-game" in that space, but it absolutely ticks all the boxes for me personally, is a quality "do everything" piece, and isn't obscenely expensive so that I can use it as intended instead of babying it. I just really hope I'll find the same sweetspot with a keyboard somewhat soon, before this stuff takes too much time and money 🤣 It's kindoff a weird phenomenon this, getting addicted to watching reviews, browsing websites, reading about stuff in detail that average people would never think or care about. Becoming an enthusiast. The search is the the hobby in my experience. But it's nice reaching end-game as well.

​@@AndyVNguyen I just think it's laughable for a brand to be charging this much for a product that's supposedly considered "high end" and ends up having defective anodizing or a terrible e coating. I get that you're a fan of the board, but I would be disappointed if that happened to me.

Thank you for for your hard work as a content provider here on KZfaq. This is the first time I have found your channel and this is the first video of yours I have watched. I was researching mechanical tkl and 65% keyboards and this video of yours popped up. I need to say that I have had tremendous difficulty trying to watch your video. Your rate of speech is so incredibly fast I have had tremendous difficulty understanding what your saying especially since you are talking about technical lingo and jargon specific to this niche community. Maybe if I was already familiar with this hobby and the technology and the manufacturers like your subscribers I might be able to piece some of it together, but all I could make out is that you seem to be happy that you got a super rare yellow keyboard that has a gold unicorn symbol stamped on the bottom, why I don't know. Anyway just thought you might be interested to know what a new viewer thought and how blazingly fast you speak.
