Love your videos! Keep it up!
Finally, a laptop proportionate to Evan
big laptop for big boi
Het is zo cool dat ze ook hebben geantwoord!
It’s so large that there’s even bonus kitty lounging space behind the keyboard without getting in the way of Serious Gaming™️
@@EvanAndKatelyn bet his big boi in more ways then one ....
oh wait not that type of channel
This is obviously an incredibly practical investment. Now they can stream anywhere and not have to sacrifice screen size.
Next logical step is to make sure this can go underwater. 🙃
I can just imagine someone driving to a coffee shop with a forklift carrying this behemoth of a laptop. Then slowly struggling to get it through the door where they are eventually able to shimmy it onto a table. They open it and start clicking away happily
Then suddenly, the table collapses, coffee is everywhere, chaos ensues!!! 💻
So they move to the couch and put the laptop on the coffee table since it's lower.
You'll need a coffee cup of the same proportions as well
@@AverageGamerGirI Yeah, maybe, but - that thing seems a _bit_ bigger than the average coffee table 😁... (And I don't really remember their coffee table, so - it may yet fit on said table 😄...)
@@CoPoint coffee tables can be three to five-ish feet long and coffee tables are are very so they should be fine
Now you need to make a giant backpack for it to go into, bonus: Katelyn could also fit in it and go for a ride 😂
999.99 for a monster laptop man that is a deal of a laptop even today🤣🤣🤣
@@SaraMorgan-ym6ue It's 3 installments of $999.99, which means it's $2999.97. Still, that's the same price- or cheaper- than certain Alienware gaming laptops, sooooo....
And Katelyn has to wear a backpack for the Supervisor 🤣
BACKPACK-CEPTION
katelyn struggling to stretch her feet under the huge laptop to prevent them from going to sleep is hillarious😂😂😂
You gonna break the big TV because you keep struggling to carry. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
My first thought was 'it can't be called a laptop if it doesn't fit on your lap' so the video ending with Katelyn having the laptop on her whole laps was just perfection! I love it!
I just now realized that thats why its called a laptop...
This actually makes it better than 99.975% of other laptops, because those other laptops all come with a warning, "Do not use on soft surfaces." ;)
you guys should totally make custom keycaps for that massive keyboard!
Oh my gosh…. Yeeeeeessssss!
Then a laptop bag!
Yes!!! That would be excellent!!
Ok but can we discuss that evan did not get 100% keyboard for this build? Imagine having a laptop this big with no keypad. 🤣😭
I was hoping they would make a gigant custom keyboard.
YT recommended you guys to me yesterday. I'm full time solo parent of a 10 year old. Thank you for giving us more content to consume!!! Legit love you guys already lol :)
love from Canada!
xoxo
wow congrats
no child, but I enjoy family friendly content so they're definitely great c:
The amount of sponsors you two have is crazy
How these two are not doing professional commercials, is beyond me. They're amazing at it
They are one of the few content creators whose ads I actually watch and look forward to. I also appreciate the bar at the bottom to let you know how long the ad is. I wish those a forward through did that. Lol
@@jedijenru YES! The entertaining sponsorships and the bar, I don’t mind at all because of that as well. I’ve noticed a few other content creators on UA-cam doing the same thing but not nearly enough of them do 😢
They're clearly too busy building giant laptops
They ARE doing professional commercials.
Thank you!! We try to make the ads/commercials entertaining
Evan's dejected trip back to the hardware store is a vibe. It's also me, every time I do any DIY project. At LEAST one trip back to the store. 😂
i love how he abandoned the shopping trolley in the middle of the plywood aisle too :D
Only once? Ha ha, me more like 5....
Came to the comments for that moment. Too real.
If you haven't made at least 3 trips, are you really a DIYer? I mean, less than three trips, you might as well call yourself a professional.
Using extruded aluminium on all four sides and then replace the plywood with aluminium sheats with some structural supports to hold the equipment inside would probably reduce the weight of the whole thing. You could then remove the back and some of the structural metal inside the screen housing would also help a lot. It would even let you reduce the thickness of the lid. You also missed out on having the logo on the back being backlit. You should also add a safteystrap for the screen so it doesn't fall down and maybe some fold out legs under it. A fun project anyhow.
This turned out soooo cool! Very creative, and lots of credit for the technical parts of building a computer and power sources to work - I feel like you don't highlight that stuff as much, but it is so impressive! Well done!
This video has all the classic hallmarks of a good E&K video. Things being not level & Katelyn reluctantly accepting it, Evan being too happy about his 3D-printed sockets, Katelyn being mad at Evan for messing up the CNC-ing, being embarrassed for doing a project outdoors late at night... what else? 😆
- rt, rt, dddd, rt
- various statements proving that it's "not that type of channel"
- the appurroval of the Supurrvisor
@@EvanAndKatelyn WHERE IS JOOB
I feel Evans “it’s fineeeeeee” just as much as I feel Katelyns “I’m not pleased” 😅😂 I love your videos guys ! Thank you for the entertainment ❤
Inside you there are two wolves; one is “It’s fiiiine 😅”, the other is “I’m not pleased. 😐”
@@darkstar2874 hahaha so true 😂
JUST LIKE ME
this is what a relationship is, woking together not competing.
Brillian idea and realization! ))) A lot of fun to watch. Thank you!
Evan and Katelyn started with useful DIY projects in the home, then slowly transitioned to the most ridiculous impractical you should never DIY projects… and we were all like “yeah, this checks out” and kept watching. 😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
Loll
@Avery Nelson exactly the same here.
Go big or go home I always say!
Y'all have to host a stream from the computer after this. That would be hilarious
haha technically we could do it!
I'd like to see that.
@@EvanAndKatelyn You really should! A lot of us would like to see it, and it's probably the easiest request your fan base has ever given.
@@EvanAndKatelyn one thing you guys forgot, is a webcam built in at the top above the monitor.
@@EvanAndKatelyn stream from the park :D
Would be funny to see one of you try and use this in a Starbucks or university library setting.
Can we take a moment to talk about how amazing this is. I feel like alot of people see DIY and think 'oh cute little crafts', meanwhile Evan and Katelyn are building a literal 100lb functional computer 😮
You know its a good day when evan and katelyn upload
Especially when it's a Giant Laptop
what a perfect day especially cuz its a snow day for my bus area
I came to the comments to say this 😂🔥🤙
@@Sparklemuffinpeacockspidersame! you must live in my area then
@@pixelstar234 do you live in canada?
A quote that really resonated with me this episode was Evan talking about 3d printing the brackets for the electronics. "Was there an simpler way to do this? Maybe, but this makes me happy."
Sometimes we can lose sight of the making process with ideas of 'ease' and 'efficiency'! Even with something as 'silly' as a giant laptop, remembering and/or intentionally doing things in a way that makes you happy instead of the most efficient way I think is a part of what makes creating and making interesting and fun. So what if there's an easier way to do it. It makes you happy, then do it!
That looked like it was a lot of fun to make! Well done!
*The cutest couple ever, idk how they figure out how to do all these crazy projects yet awesome job guys!*
You should register this absolute beauty to guinness record, it would be absolute blast!
yesss
Absolutely, I was looking for a comment like this
The way you've managed to make a video that is essentially "what if thing was big?" so delightful is amazing. Love you guys.
They could team up with the Make It Big team at Buzzfeed Tasty!
Normall I skip through the sponsor stuff, but you guys are just too funny that I HAD to watch it.😊
This is amazing! I would’ve wanted to see more reactions from strangers watching you use it.
Could you imagine if you guys brought this to a library and started researching things on it? I wonder what people would think 😂 This is such a cool build! The joob on the back is the PURRFECT touch! (Excuse the cheesy cat pun lol)
Or to a cafe and do some work ^^
@@DominusFeles haha true! Anywhere really. I’d just like to see this brought in public and people’s confused reactions lol.
Or to school
I was thinking they should take it through airport security
I thought train, but... *No.* 😂
I'd love to see Evan and Katelyn collab with Martina and Hansi (Nerdforge). It's happy energy all over! 😅
OH. MY. GOD. YES! That would be perfect!
That would be amazing
OOOOOOHHHHHH YES YES YES YES!!!!!!!!
IT WOULD BE EVERYTHING I EVER NEEDED OMGGGGGGGgg
Resin time, resin time,.. SKERA BARGERA!!!
This is the kind of stuff that makes the world a better place imho. Just a cool neuro-spicy couple doing everything my little kid heart could want to do with big money. ❤
Guys this video was a joy to watch all those 20mins! Thank you for your existence !!
Evan's laughter is one of pure joy and also of pure pain.
So ture though lol
I completely agree.
evan: "its fine"
katelyn quietly: "no its not"
even: "its fine"
3rd remake of the laptop: "its fine"
@@fitybux4664 😆yeah
Time stamp?
Edit: Found it! 11:50
@@Onyxisonfire Thank you
I wanna see the reactions of people when you bring it out to the public like the library or at school.
I think there probably is a market for something like this as a foldaway all in one computer and desk combination.
Like an old sewing machine?
@@mirandathepandakitty1630 yeah!
@@johnweems4586 I feel like that’d be great for offices or generally communal computers
"Was there a simpler way to do this? Maybe. But *this* makes me happy." I feel that in my crafty soul
With that frame that has the logo sideways you can make the biggest tablet ever 😊 I also wanted to thank you guys for posting such great, funny, and interesting content. I love watching you and your creativity ❤
Fa real, watching them 2 is the perfect way to get ur day started like a coffee and cigerette lol
I absolutely love the thumbnail. So happy and kyut Katelyn looks
The ultimate gaming laptop could be made like this. A normal sized full featured keyboard + a built in mouse pad, good speakers, a secondary display, a niche for the mouse to rest when the lid is closed, a gaming keypad on the left or right, depending on if you're left or righthanded. It'd be especially nice if it was detachable so it could rest beside you. Maybe a niche with a wireless gamepad that has a charger built in. There's just so much space that could be used to create something amazing. and it'd be more practical if it was built in a fancy briefcase. Such a monster laptop would have a massive battery and could even have hookups for solar panels/an auxiliary battery. It could have attachable legs like backpacking chairs to rest on your lap, whether you're sitting on a sofa, a chair or someone else's lawn.
The laptop makes Evan look short its adorable. That's how you know you truly succeeded in making the worlds biggest laptop.
You guys should submit this for a world record.
Yeah true
It costs like 10,000$ just to get one of those and they're pretty much a sham, I learned recently!
Yup
They wouldn't take it, cause this isn't a laptop,
@Zhuria It's a joke, not a sham. They weren't intending on selling them for real.
I love the finished laptop!
El doblaje es muy bueno, excelente trabajo!
This has to be one of my favourite episodes of the, Evan and Katelyn Make Something Cool But Weird, series.
I'm loving the type "A"nger from Katelyn and Evan's willingness to overlook alignment and general chaos in this build hahaha
excellent
06:45 the best part is that the keyboard you chose uses the "compact" layout.... as if there wasn't room for a number pad or arrow keys lol
Great job. Thank you for the time and effort you took to make this video and share it with us. Greetings from Croatia.
I love this change up from purely epoxy/resin videos. This is such a fun idea :)
These weird tech/DIY builds are my favorite videos of theirs. I love all their more recent algorithm-friendly resin/crafting focused stuff too, but they actually used to do a lot more DIY builds, woodworking, and home reno, and those are still my favorites.
I’ve been following sing 500k, and I’m so happy you guys have come this far!!
thank you!
Your daughter is very smart. So impressive how she takes after you in the tech-savviness.Great family indeed 😊✌❤
we need more videos like this on youtube...happy couples doing stuff..experimenting on technology..some are ridiculous..😂..try something new....refreshing👍good job guys
I've never related to anyone more, than Katelyn trying to take the cap off the spray paint.
hahaha why must it be like that
Oh no, no comments, I'm fixing it lol
@@EvanAndKatelyndo not Break the big TV. 😂😂😂😂😂
Katelyn looks like an adorable fairy playing on a hooman laptop at the end! So cute! And seriously y’all are soo skilled! Hope to be able to do that one day!
Hey guys just watch this video today and it was fun. Keep up that happiness and also spread every where, thanks
You guys put so much time and money into every single video you make, honestly you both just go above and beyond. (But I’m sure the supervisor does most of the hard work 😅)
y’all, this really made my day. i’m in bed right now with fibromyalgia pain, and i was looking for something to take my mind off the pain. THIS right here made me smile so much. you guys are so adorable, hilarious, and so creative, i love it
Heeyy chronic unexplainable pain gang! I've been in and out of the clinic over it this past month. It's nice to know that I'm not alone.
My mum has that. I hope tomorrow is a better day for you :)
You have to lower the inflammation in your body. There is a way. it is no quick fix, but a long term solution. It helped me a lot. You can look up the channel of sten ekberg who explains it better. There are many others like dr jason fung, dr berg, dr cywes, dr hyman, dr ken berry, etc.
Me too 😔 it's not easy, but you're not alone guys. Unfortunately. Though, it can feel like it sometimes.
Love you all **hugs** hope you all have better days ahead.
I can’t stop laughing. This is so unnecessary but I’m also so glad it exists. You guys are amazing
we definitely need a video of you going into public and using this, say, on the bus. or in a crowded coffee shop. and capturing peoples reactions.
Played with resin for the first time today and the entire time I was pouring, your little “resin time” jingle was playing in my head 😂
Katelyn is an amazing editor! Guys she even does captions! And sometimes there’s jokes in it too! Seriously, amazing attention to detail in every video!
You guys did such a great job on the resin knives a couple years ago, I think you should try to make a medieval sword out of resin. You just blow my mind on how creative you are!!!
oh boy do I have news for you
Ah the amazing opera Flower Song. I love that you included it.
Cutting the logo in the wrong orientation was a genius way to force the display to be mounted non-crooked.
Love to see @LinusTechTips try out a version of this - Would love to see them dive into the electronics aspect even more, maybe come up with a custom battery solution. Seems like a good Alex & Dan project.
This is probably the best video that demonstrates the absolute chaos that is Evan the Engineer and Katelyn the Graphic Designer.
Very awesome, Good work and ideea.
The little feet sticking out of the massive laptop at the end just killed me, so funny.
Yet another addition to their collection, welcome to the family huge laptop
You all did a great job!🤣🤣🤣 I like it!
this is so ridiculous but amazing at the same time. I love the part were Evan is narrating why they had to redo the TV mount and you can her Katelyn suffering in the background.
also, the shot of katelyn laying in front of the laptop makes her look like a kid compared to the size of the laptop. haha
This is totally insane! Lightning in a bottle project, good job E&K! (also, the shot with Katelyn's feet sticking out from under it looks like the laptop fell on the wicked witch of the east 🤣)
That came out so good and the resin was an awesome touch! The only thing I would've done different is use PVC instead of plywood. It'd be a little more expensive, but would save a little weight and might stand up a little better to being banged around, which will inevitably happen if you plan on showing this off to a bunch of people from time to time (or, you know, using it, if that's your thing).
I am most impressed by the hinge.
The cut back to the wood section had me laughing so hard I scared my cats. 😂
The level of chaos in the intro is just a testament to how much more chaotic the whole video is gonna be! Love your vids♥️
Great video! I would love to see a collab between you and Nerdforge.
quedo muy original, me encanta
Now you just need to mount folding legs to the bottom so you can take it and set it up like a camping/ folding table. Maybe reinforce the top cover near the keyboard so that surface is a bit more sturdy.
This is awesome and surreal-looking. I'm glad you proved it's a laptop by actually placing it on Katelyn's lap. 😄
🤣🤣🤣
Love This!
But... especially love Evan's facial expressions as he gets the new plywood.
🤣
We all know who won the "It's Fiiiiine"/"I'm not happy" debate!
This is very creative!!
Even sounded so evil with one of his laughs hehhahahhah 😈🤪😂😂
I love the very Napster inspired logo so much! It’s an adorable take on a classic
Evan and Katelyn should team up with Glarses to make the world's biggest desktop computer set up lol. This was amazing! Great start to my weekend! 😊
Can’t believe I just heard about you. I have NEVER in my life was so invested in a video!
The resin turned out amazing
You should ask Linus from LTT to help you overclock it :P I would LOVE to see you work on a project with Alex from his team. Martina from NerdForge made an incredible PC with them and it was literally one of the best videos I've watched in a long time, many people also shared those feelings :P
Oh gahd please don`t put Alex and Evan in one room. The jankines will explode.
What a joy it is to watch you guys. Like giving my inner child an adults salary to make their weird inventions come true! Lol, I can always count on you for a good laugh
OMG at the end she looks absolutely tiny, I love it
Looks really good. Very cozy. It's not the color sheme I personally goes for. But I like it a lot anyway. 😊
I've always preferred larger laptops, but this is crazy 🤣 nice job.
This is incredible! 😂 Amazing job. I’m glad the supurrvisor approved 🙌
Thanks Julie! Had to get Supurrvisor approval, especially since cats love laptops
This is the biggest laptop I've seen in my life. The video is very relaxing for me. I laughed occasionally, but it was a lot of fun for me. Thank you very much.
Best regards
I've seen bigger.
wow esta genial
Its been getting harder and harder for you guys to top some of your alls older videos and ideas. But you have absolutely done it with this one. I freakin love it, great video and the finished product came out incredible.
I want Linus to collab with Evan and Katelyn for this 😂
Ha, that could have been cool! Would have been great to have some help running the monitor and PC off of DC power instead of converting back and forth. Know it's possible but we just didn't have the time
@@EvanAndKatelyn there's only one choice now: do an LTT collab for a second revision that's 2x of this one
Came here to say exactly this!! Can we tag their channel or team or something to make sure they see this ??
@@EvanAndKatelyn follow up with LTT...2 gamers 1 laptop
❣THIS! 💯
This looks like it would make some absolute bangers of stock photos
you guys feels genuine, cute and awesome.. or wholesome.
