@@KeebClack lol thanks for the kind words. They are bad by today’s standards in keyboards. I whipped those renders up in less than 5 minutes trying to not lose the opportunity. I am I no way an expert in rendering, but it got the job done!

[@breezyc4026]

@@plumokin5535the collab we didn’t ask for, but needed

[@SeraphimKnight]

It's honestly comforting that even Taeha takes ~8h for a 65% worth of switches, makes me feel less embarrassed when it takes me 10 for a 75%.

[@TaehaTypes]

I am a slow luber 🥹

[@silentKeys20]

That's about 7 minutes a switch 😅

[@bakeraus]

What's the rush?

[@johnsci911]

I spent half a day for two kinds of switch the first time I build Mode Sonnet + checking if all have similar feel and sound

[@pauvre10m]

it's about 1 hour per 10 switchs for me ;)

[@beaniekeys]

13:53 that smile at the end when he looked at the board says it all! Congrats on the collab!

Weeew killer aesthetic on this custom Bauer. Looks amazing! Great video.

[@johnyjoe2k]

Damn, haven't watched Taeha in years and YT randomly recommends this vid. This is the classic Taeha I used to love, but now in short video format! Please make more like these!

[@Doby-xc1le]

The production quality has sky rocketed since I first starting watching you back in 2019, big props dude, keep up the good work!

[@draxxx_exe]

So glad this came up on my recommended! I love MKBHD and see this as a huge W. Also the attention to detail is insane, when you synced the music up with the first few keys I instantly subscribed. And damn that desk mat 🥵

[@Doby-xc1le]

[@tonyjin1384]

Came out so awesome! MKBHD was one of my first subscriptions on yt and think its so cool that you finally got to build for him

[@awesomesauceusername]

I always see MKBHD's keychron in his videos and I always think that he deserves a nice keeb built by Taeha. Glad it finally happened.

[@ClickyCrisp]

Great to see you again Taeha!

[@TaehaTypes]

Long time no see!

[@thomasphilipmeadows4569]

That intro will never get old. So class.

[@Jackomo2011]

Loved the really clean and aesthetic video. Room for improvement: Clips of the individual for example talking about what he wanted so u could explain what you chose. And in the end some sort of delivery/ live unpacking/ reaction of the new owner would be lovely. Much love, keep it up

[@TaehaTypes]

Thank you for the feedback! Yea I did actually intend to try and deliver the board in person but being across the country and certain circumstances made it a bit hard for me to. Hopefully future videos I can try to incorporate the collabator more!

[@abdou2523]

God this brought back many beautiful memories, still objectively the best intro I’ve seen on KZbin and the sound quality is just spot on !

[@Doby-xc1le]

[@craigmeister1241]

Christ I never knew cherry browns could sound so good. Keyboard looks absolutely clean af as well

[@Budder99]

The whole video was beautiful, well paced, nicely explained, well lit and sounded perfect, but that typing test at the end where you really spent some time typing and let us get a proper feel for the board is the best part for me. Other channels seem to glance over this bit with only a small segment and it's a bummer, I wanna hear someone go ham on it for a moment!

[@TaehaTypes]

Glad you enjoyed it! Actually considered shortening it for the sake of time haha

Cant escape that MX Sand sound and feel.

[@cloosat]

Clean build as always. MKBHD won't regret taking this offer.

[@SmartyPantsDash]

I honestly miss the stream recap because it was more casual and less produced. When watching the streams it felt like I was building the board with you. I like watching those more casual streams while building my boards tbh

[@therightcourt1235]

Frank is really THE man!

[@mikesulit3041]

hot dang that sounded sooooo good!

[@sawyerseth9832]

I’m curious why you chose not to add any mods to this keyboard. Do you have a personal philosophy on this? While the keyboard did sound great I felt that it sounded pretty hollow. Personally I love the deeper sound you can achieve with foam and/or tape.

[@edward.sometimes]

Mods are generally strayed away from for higher end keyboards, as they tend to make all keebs sound the same/very similar, ruining the uniqueness of certain keebs and also the switch sound profile. Tape and foam mods are still great for lower end keyboards. The premium high end keeb community has started to look down on the foamy deep sound (although I still personally love it).

[@sawyerseth9832]

@@edward.sometimes oh that’s really interesting as the keeb creators I watch art still modding very expensive keyboards. And are often criticizing high end customs if they do not come with foam or even tape.

[@Chozo_Ghost]

Nice to have a local Huntsvillian like Omnitype have a hand in this process. Rocket City folk like us know good keebs when we see them!

[@matousczerner6795]

Looks sick. How to control mac without full opt, cmd, ctrl and fn key is a mystery to me though, but i guess that was something that MKBHD agreed on.

[@VicharB]

Kudos for the hard work, which I see you get a kick from as a hobby! I'll just be frank: 1. Don't understand the 60% layout and how people go about without the F-keys. Personally, it should be atleast 75%. 2. Don't like the design concept - too much MKBHD stuff and that too which is inside and at the bottom 3. Really like the keycaps theme 4. Don't like the sound, but that is maybe I am more into thocky, creamy and silent sound tones. BTW, you made it public, but don't see any comments from MKBHD appreciating your efforts here! P.S. Since people will be commenting/asking, mine is more from budget range - Keychron V1 Max modded (sound dampening and anti-vibration materials used in automobiles and sound industries; haven't seen any keeb bloggers using them, with Poron switch pads and stab pads + Durock V2 stabs modded) with $35 dollar PBT Double-Shot Cherry profiles Dark Blue/Black themed set (used in Xinmeng A66 keyboards) after 40% discount, sitting on top of Gateron G Pro 3.0 Yellow switches.

[@shwars576]

Will you upload a video of you giving the keyboard in person?

[@maxmouse3]

This looks absolutely incredible ❤🖤

[@sparkplugbarrens]

Great video and an amazing build! I would have liked to hear a bit more about the design and materials of the case (and the weight).

[@VillafuerteDV13]

Anyone know where those rocks he uses to hold the screws are from? I need those in my life.

[@i-wanna-be-adored]

I dont know what they exactly are but you could get something similar with some rock candle holders

[@Belgaer]

During that Omnitype sponsor plug, Yaeha was looking like he's been using the same Model M for data entry since 1985.

[@ngagehostile]

[@Iamallwaysright1]

Can you do a review and disassembly of the Lofree Flow keyboard?

[@bambangirawan6413]

really nice deskmate...wish it can be buy...

[@egotek]

Curious why you went with gray for the keycaps....seems like black/red would have been on-theme.

[@JorgePowell]

Question: I noticed there isn't space for a command button on the Bauer Lite case - given Marques' requirement for Mac compatibility would this not be a compromise for his needs? I love the board itself, it's probably one of the best looking builds I've seen - just curious if this was a concern during the design process. Loved the video, hope to see more collaborations like this in future!

[@omnitype_official]

Mac is for usable on a WLL layout. We designed the board and all our products on a Mac with this board. You just put Command on Caps Lock, Option next to the space bar and then Control on bottom left. Honestly it’s a more ergonomic layout to have Command on R3 right next to your pinky than on the bottom row.

[@JorgePowell]

@@omnitype_official Good to know - thank you for explaining. Will definitely be picking up one of these for myself! 🙌🏼
