You are honestly one of the greatest KZbinrs ever. Even though you don’t have flashy editing, a regular upload schedule, or fancy cinematic footage, somehow you keep me engaged at every second of the video. You are funny, creative, and have a great personality. Thank you so much for these videos. Keep it up; you will certainly get at least a million subs.

[@halfportion5764]

Please, glarses, never stop uploading. Your videos are all bangers!!!

[@DamnZodiak]

If you're only looking for the keycaps, just get one of the early G81s. They use the Cherry MY switches, which use MX-style stems so the keycaps are exactly the same, yet the boards are much cheaper. The older ones (the ones without the win keys mostly) also use PBT double-shot or dye-subbed keycaps, which are entirely resistant to yellowing. I'm currently typing this on a set of 40+-year-old cherry keycaps that literally look like they're brand new when cleaned. According to the older Cherry catalogs, they made a lot of ABS keycaps, but I've looked at a lot (and I mean a lot) of vintage Cherry boards and so far, I haven't been able to find a single one with ABS keycaps, at least in Germany. As far as using Retr0Brite (or just plain Hydrogen Peroxide, I don't get why anyone would buy the more expensive stuff. It's literally the same thing), most people recommend using a UV lamp, as it's much faster and gives you more even results than relying on sunlight.

About two weeks ago I found your channel. Two weeks ago I didn’t even know you could custom build keyboards. And then in that one Q&A I see that you got introduced into keyboards by Osu which was pretty cool And then you do a video with squashy This was a really cool fun set of videos you three made! Also I really like how squashy made his keyboard case out of wood, that was pretty neat. I can personally see how his keyboard won but the journey you went on for yours was equally as interesting. Kinda sad for you that you couldn’t make the switches you wanted as that would’ve made for a really cool result, but fun video nonetheless and I guess we can all learn from your mistakes here HAHAHA Keep it up bro love the content!
