After weeks of searching for kits, most of the good ones are sold out or are super delayed shipping, I nearly pulled the trigger on some that weren't as versatile as this one. Once this one stumbled into my vision, I was surprised that it met nearly every aspect I wanted, and was willing to pay considerably more for just a kit with more limitations before. I bought this one in a heartbeat. I don't plan on doing too much mod work, but the possibilities are clearly there. And the base you get is superb on its own.
This video is truly amazing. This is a master class in keyboard modding. Thank you for the incredibly high quality videos that explain in just a few minutes what would take hundreds or thousands of words in an article of how-to. Keep up the incredibly high content. Absolutely crushing it!
@@vigotogar Yes it does when he is putting this much work into making it perfect. Balancing the wires helps(along with the lubing) eliminate any of the rattle that might happen when keys are pressed.

Aha you changed the name! It's totally up to you. If you want to spray lube, shake well before applying and if you can, pull the switch out first. That would be better for keeping the plate clean.
@@3ildcat okey thank you! No this is just my first account :3 I have a non used keyboard which is, for some, hottswap, so I would use that board for the spray lubing so the plate won't get dirty :D
I recently got into exploring keyboards and switches after getting tired of my keyboards with MX switches. Now I can't stop watching. I am in the search for perfection.
I just got this keyboard today after seeing your video, wow this keyboard feels amazing. I'm still not used to the arrow keys but the brown switches it came with sounds so nice, I don't think I need to lube it. Also the spacebar on mine is perfectly fine, the only button that has a little rumble on mine is the backspace. I have bought quite a few keyboards over the past few days but this one has been by far the best to type on. Not sure if its the switch or the keys. Ughh if only they came out with a 87 key version of this!
I know this is a keyboard build/review channel BUT I can't express how much I would appreciate a video with JUST typing sounds, like, an hour long one or so..
Gonna do this once my K6 arrives, although it looks like it’s gonna be a hot minute. Also, do you always mix the two lubes for the switches, and use a separate lube for the stabs?
I watched it without breathing whooa! What a long journey to get a fancy keyboard sound. I'd like to customize my keyboard someday and i know it won't happen😏 한글 타자 치실 때 묘하게 빠르고 강해지는 거 저만 웃긴가요 역시 빨리빨리 민족ㅋㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋ
@@ryan9818 Not who you were asking, but I also recently just got this keeb. This is my first keyboard, and its a great prebuild for beginners from what I can tell. The factory lubing is pretty good, and the build is sturdy. I plan to replace the keycaps soon because the ones that come with it are a little bit ugly. I don't really have any complaints for this board, so I would definitely recommend it for those who don't want to heft out the price for a custom.

@@ryan9818 Got it yesterday. Mine came with 5pin hotswap instead of 3pin. Works great so far. Software is in beta and buggy. This is only my second mechboard so im not the most xp guy with these keyboards, but i really like it. It is very satisfying to type on compared to all my previos keyboards that is for sure.
I can't wait for my snow fox to come and mod it while using your video as reference!! your other video made me buy one :) also I'ts gonna be my first time modding a keyboard so wish me luck :)
After binge watching a lot of your videos, I've finally decided to get myself a mechanical keyboard! I want to start with the Kemove snowfox for the bluetooth and hot swappable feature which would be a good way for a beginner like me to explore. Like your modded womier video, I hope to mod it with the pom jelly caps and holy panda switches one day! Do you think this is a good start 😊?
I love it! I think I’m going to get this keyboard and do the same things as you did, and I will also add the white pudding keycaps from hyperx. Love your work, keep it up!

블투가 끊긴다면 환경적인 이유로 다른 블투도 끊길 수도 있어서 그부분은 넘어가고, 큰 배터리나 디자인, 핫스왑이 더 맘에 드신다면 괜찮을 것 같습니다. 개인적으로 앤프로1&2 외에는 무선 키보드들 다 별로 안좋아하는데 키무브 만큼은 포장부터 제품퀄까지 생각보다 괜찮았습니다. 무선기능은 앤프로나 키무브나 영상용으로 외에는 잘 안쓰는 기능이라 따로 말씀드릴게 없네요..
greatvid! few questions here ? - is the keyboard too pretty high or is it ergonomic enough to require wrist rest ? - is the layout completely standard ?
I love the intros so much, I don't know who in their right mind would skip them!
@Naoto ;-;
I just want to see his insane typing skills
@Naoto what a psychopath omg

best intros in all of youtube.
The "after" sounds really, really nice.

I do wish he had done a sound test before he modded it.

Omg i've been waiting for this since I just got myself and my brother this keyboard. Thanks so much!! I ordered because of your previous video!
6:10 why didn't you add any foam? you usually do it, is it not needed on the snowfox?
It's just an option so just tried without foam
I was waiting for this video so bad, good video!
Glad you liked it!
Oh :3ildcat lemme ask, is your typing fast among Koreans or is it just us English noobs who are slow?

don't lump me in with the slow typers I type at a consistent speed of 2 wpm
