Gonna pin this for now - YOU GUYS!! Thank you so much for 300 subs. That is insane and it feels like such a short amount of time since I started. This is super encouraging to keep going, and trust me, I plan to! Got a lot of videos in the works. Don't be a stranger :)
i love this video i heard you were going to do a mod video on this but i was wondering i have been wanting to see a "ultimate guide to mod your keyboard" type video to showcase all the mods like not just 1 or 2 or "the best mod" show wire balancing and foam mod tape mod holee mod ect like a top tear mod video i would make this video but do not have the time or skill to make it good and that's what i love about your channel when i saw your video i thought u had at least 25k subs u are very underrated and your content looks very professional keep up the good work.
Awesome!! Yeah i got mine to work. The video is taking so long because i keep adding new mods like a force breaker and tape mod (initially left that one out but it sounds do good so i ended up going it). So now i need to add that tot the video, haha. Hopefully I can have it out soon.
tbh after holee modded the stabs it sounds alot better than expected, only lubing sounded horrible but after holee modding it was actually somewhat decent, i thought holee mod was overated but it was really good, really recommend
You should! The r3 is still in stock at kbdfans and will also be coming in and out of stock at other vendors as they get shipments in. I highly recommend it.
2:11 i also just built my board and even though i didnt have any lubing experience i still got some durock v2s and lubed them because i knew that these were really bad
Yes. Just make sure that you use enough where the stab wire sits inside the housing so it eliminates the rattle. I use dielectric grease there since it's thicker and seems to work better in my experience. But 205g0 will work! (holee mod in addition to the krytox would be best though)
I actually built mine right around December. I purchased mine as a 2nd hand ( I was too late to get in the gb) redid all stabs, switched them out with some durock v2s smokeys. I cleaned it all. With switches, I went with some C3 Tangies. Could've done a better job on the C3s but I still got the right amount of thocc. Remove the foam below the pcb and switched to a thicker (denser) foam. I don't know why but the foam below the pcb included made my 67LR3 key chatter. Overall, I really really love it so much.
i just got the board but i wanted a board in my native language so I went with iso.... now my keycaps got delayed and I have a half naked board, still love it tho. currently using some old harvested caps of my shitty 30 buck first ever keeb. it works but they really aren't any good lol. definitely excited for the modding video. keep up the good work ❤️
Interesting! It could be that i use a black deskmat or the lighting scenario/camera settings, though. But I feel like its a really dark grey color in person.
@@coleydotmp4 Oooh so I was kinda right I picked up mine in solid black lol. Also I'm glad to see that wasn't crazy or just shit at tuning stabs when I noticed that these develop rattle super fast
Hey! I got the initial stock when the R3 dropped on Black Friday. The preorder means you'd be paying upfront and when they get it back in stock, you would get one. I'm not sure when they'll be back in stock, hopefully not too long though since it's one of their most popular boards.
@@coleydotmp4 ty im saving up my money to make a $200 custom keyboard and i was wondering if the pre-order for the PCB was different that the regular $119 one so thx for the reply and by any chance do u know if it will come pre built?
@@CrisPBacon_YT Looks like the preorder board ships in march - i'd assume the non preorder means it would ship now. The board doesnt come prebuilt - but if you follow the build guide, it's quite easy.
hay, Selina here, Officcial little guy inspection: Neat gesture addition, NOTED, 10/10, keep up the good work, sir. even though I'm not a keyboard nerd, listening to your voice and the thong thock thock tochy ton ton, it's a good kind of asmr to have in the back, love your work!
Hold your second layer key and the controls are across the QWERTY (Layer + Q will turn it on and off). If you need help finding the layers and mapping the keys, download the VIA software!
Good question. I don't have personal experience with the Bakeneko 60 or 65 (almost bought one last night but ultimately passed due to having other boards in mind), but depending on what you prefer, the bakeneko is probably better. You're paying for a cool mounting style, better flex, and better material (if you prefer metal cases). Downsides though - you cant use screw in stabs, and it also has a clackier sound profile. I don't know if it's possible to get the bakeneko to sound as deep as a stock KBD67lite. you definitely would need some case foam. I don't feel like either board is inferior, but neither is a bad choice. Two really great options, comes down to preference and if you had any price requirements. Hope that helps.
@@coleydotmp4 would you know how to get some case foam if I did go for the bakeneko. I am currently planning to use the cow switches from infinity keys
@@jefferychew9137 I would grab some Noico ( i use this www.amazon.com/Noico-Deadening-Automotive-Insulation-Dampening/dp/B07QY1X35P?pd_rd_w=U9QLi&pf_rd_p=ee521540-07c2-4687-9605-13c98e32ab2c&pf_rd_r=CHNKP16SVVX5Z2RG2D7S&pd_rd_r=58332cbd-209d-44a8-82e3-08abcc1fda1d&pd_rd_wg=fLiX6&pd_rd_i=B07QY1X35P&psc=1&ref_=pd_bap_d_rp_1_i) Might be too thick though, so to be safe you could buy some PE foam (or if you had any extra laying around)
Nice demo! ASA sounds great for the price. In my opinion, the stabilizer pads are kind of nice for silent builds that already have a cushioned bottom-out, but not as much for regular switches. The actual stabilizers that came with this kit, however, are mid. Just going to swap them out :/ Looking forward to the mods.
That's a great perspective I hadn't considered - I have yet to build a silent board (im too obsessed with how these keebs sound to even dare haha). Thank you!
I love that you asked! There's boards like the GAS67 that are a fantastic value, some new akko boards that have also been amazing. if you like TKLs, the tiger80 is better board overall than this one. But i guess in terms of thockiest, deepest sounding board, this one probably still wins.
@@coleydotmp4 Thanks for the reply! I'll wait until black friday to choose my first keyboard kit. I searched for gas67 but unfortunately it is not available on aliexpress (site where I buy all my orders) and the tiger80 is very expensive against kbd67 I'll look for some akko boards, but for now kbd67's "thocky" sound has me in love

Recently finished my kbd67 lite and I have to say it blew my expectations, especially for my first keeb
It's amazing for a first keeb! :) heck it ain't my first but ill be daily driving this one for a while i think
Great video, another quality keeb UA-camr to watch is always appreciated :)

Thanks SOOO much Aaron for the compliments and the suggestions. This is a great video idea, might have to take you up on it!
I actually bought the d65 gaskets but never found a way to actually implement them!
I would be highly interested to see what you’ve done

Nice coverage of the KBD67 Lite. I think I'm going to have a go at R4 if/when they do one.
You should! The r3 is still in stock at kbdfans and will also be coming in and out of stock at other vendors as they get shipments in. I highly recommend it.
Love this. Can’t wait till I get to build mine! Waiting for parts still. Very excited for you mods video 😁
2:11 i also just built my board and even though i didnt have any lubing experience i still got some durock v2s and lubed them because i knew that these were really bad
I just built my second custom build with this kit and with more experience and it is AMAZING. I love it so much.

1:51 that scared me😂 because suddenly there was a voice behind me
Subbed! this was great quality and very informative. Outstanding sounding KBD...the Purple is teasing at me to buy...
Great review! Just got this board in to review as well, glad I found your channel! Super good content quality :)
I just bought this keyboard cus of your vid. great vid btw, and the keyboard will be good
It's a fantastic board. Do you know which switches you're going to buy?
would you say it's possible to only use krytox 205g0 on the stabs? (that they sound okay)
Yes. Just make sure that you use enough where the stab wire sits inside the housing so it eliminates the rattle. I use dielectric grease there since it's thicker and seems to work better in my experience. But 205g0 will work! (holee mod in addition to the krytox would be best though)

did you pre-order the pcb or keyboard?
