I built a keyboard BLINDFOLDED...

mechanical keyboard blindfolded why because i'm stubborn and petty roll the footage a friend of mine hits me up he says glasses i want to build a custom keyboard how hard is it to which i said bro building a keyboard is incredibly easy to which he said huh really which i said found at this point i could build a keyboard with my eyes closed to which he said wow you should just do that i'll do it look at how smug he is do you think he'd think he bested me i can't have that so i made up my single goal to prove to him that i could do it by building a keyboard blindfold yeah it sounds so stupid when i say out all right first thing stabilizers most people mod their stabilizers by cracking them open applying some lubricant to reduce rattle and increase smoothness okay this is a this is a 2u right now there's the spacebar [Music] no that that feels like you're actually chatting okay now i need my lube there should be the small one is 205 and the big one is x8 okay open up two or five right side right side yep [Music] yep you got your brush it feels like i'm learning to walk oh this is so weird am i am i getting closer to putting it in down down okay can you try to like rub it off on the rim like feel it no no oh no no are you okay i don't even know if i'm gonna get the right orientation here the stabilizers have to be reassembled a certain way the side of the insert with two holes faces the open side of the housing not the side with one hole you can't mess this up freezer what does this one have two holes in it i'm just here you don't have to shout i think so yeah sort of yeah what kind of hole two holes instead of like a hole in like a blocked off thing oh yeah no it's a hole in a blocked off and the maybe can i hold it i dropped it oh you dropped it into the container dude no you're joking no it's fully looped now oh no i didn't let's go yo this feels wild okay fraser can we get back to our two holes one holes i don't know how you're gonna lose the wire i then coated the edges of the wires of lubricant oh i know exactly how i'm gonna leave the wire what's this oh put it into the bottom hole and snap it into place okay now would i get it in the bottom hole is the question oh a a left left left left left left left left [Music] no way it looks like it all right special time right right right right right right right yep okay phrase it oh again two holes one hole what is what does two holes one hole mean [Music] what do you mean what does two holes one hole mean my hands feel disgusting okay bro i'm not doing any more stabs i can't see it but i know the bromette looks good but do you know what also looks good guys smashing the like button and subscribing guys according to youtube statistics that i can't see because i'm blind 44 of you guys probably aren't subscribed i'm trying to get to 5 billion subscribers so i can feel the diodes on here so i know this is that way around these particular stabilizers clip in to the pcb no screws needed but you have to get them in the right place that feels like i got it no you put it into a switch i know what you can do okay so using your left hand feel the edge of the board until you feel from the right of the board when you feel a small bump where the bump stops that's the middle of the stabilizer below the number row there's like a flexi cut that they've made in the pcb it goes through the pcb do you feel it yeah so on the right side of the end of that that is where the first stabilizer hole is yeah that exactly that dead-on uh to the right a bit more right right right come on he's [Music] now came the time to snap my individual key switches into a plate this would support them and align them not like that thing we did before the thing i need to get here right this is escape isn't it this is the right orientation yeah glasses can you explain to us which switches are you using today i am using the tifu novelty kareemi's [Music] wait do you not loot the stitches nah these are these only before cheetah are you looped before so you're cheating now no oh my god i didn't know you were such a kid roll the footage roll the footage of me trying to lose switches with my eyes closed don't stab yourself don't stab yourself don't stab yourself i can't tell you if the pins are straight or not that's all you bro are the pins poking out of the pcb what are the pins when you attach the plate to the pcb you have to make sure that the switch pins these things go straight through the holes on the pcb and don't get bent in the process something doesn't feel right here this isn't going slightly something isn't going in your right hand side isn't it okay something is not flush here because it's not sitting you know what i'm just gonna oh that did not look good just duct tape it like your camera right now we have a world record piece for glasses ow now he's just stabbing himself [Music] was going well until no way no way one of the stabilizer inserts popped out and i couldn't put it back in oh no oh no no don't leave the room give my fall down at the time i thought this would be the worst part of the build but i was incredibly wrong it just oh you gotta watch this because the next thing on the list was okay guys do you know what time it is it was time to solder the switches to the pcb this involves guiding solar wire into a small hole whilst heating up your switch pin and pad with a 350 degree soldering iron 300 i don't know what it is in fahrenheit like 730 for you american folk but it's hot it's very hot if the soldering iron touched my skin consider it cooked consider it burned i was about to wear a portable oven aimed at my fingers blindfolded who's ideal for this video this is so stupid oh oh it's going down all right this is the part where we gonna like censor half the table disclaimer clarissa's does not promote soldering blind this is done by professionals in a contained environment with professionals watching he has medical oh i'm so scared okay can i can i can i have a can i have a do-over if i can do like one row then i can go back later after the video is done and do the rest i would have said if you could do four i would be surprised if you do one i'm going to stay as far away from it [Music] i am terrified okay we're doing we're doing one switch i'm my heart my heart is my heart is beating bro whose idea what is my safety good what do you mean where's your safety gear well i'm gonna accidentally fling forward okay fraser you can turn it on now that's the top pin right now i can't feel the wire in my fingers i can't i actually can't use my gloves for this initially i wore these heatproof gloves to protect myself but i just couldn't feel the wire and the soldering iron in my hand so i had to go in bear get down you're starting iron down down down down you're off you're off down down down you're off you're off you're off the board too low to low you are two switches down two right to the right right right okay up up up okay but your wire is cranking off okay you gotta go up a bit you're gonna bundle the pin [Music] okay you got a bit you got a bit on it you got a bit on it did i really yeah you did your wire needs to go up a bit your iron is good you're watching oh it's touching it's touching it you smell do you smell the cancer fume wire up wire up yes yes okay okay okay wait is that odd is that it i think that's it i think that's it yo i think you got a head okay one more left a bit up up up up yes okay okay that's it that's it your wire is too high go lower is that it uh no no it's not it is not uh iron down iron left iron left yeah yeah yeah yeah okay okay keep keep iron locked okay lock higher yo okay your wire is too far gone you have to drag it back or up or up you're done you're done you're done i think you're done you're done you're done thought putting on keycaps would be easy you know i can feel how big they are and what not but uh my guides had a different plan yeah that that's definitely zed nice okay yup that's it this is c he got c on as well dude his luck is crazy wait how are you getting this dude they're all right i think he's shooting dude it's completely wrong okay this is backspace it's not dude that's enter this is backspace it has to be backspace you're crazy that is backspace no guys glass is editing if this is backspace unfriend himachi new on twitter [Music] [Music] we have parallel stabilizers put them on our pcb slapped on our plate pull in our switches it took an hour but we soldered completely one switch put our keycaps on flawlessly now it's time am i even looking at the camera i don't know at this point okay so we're screwing this thing now all right so i just will do stack mount screw screws lower lower down lower down no other way other way 180 degrees i know vertical vertical yes flip it horizontally oh yes oh look at that okay okay and then [Music] this has to be the finishing touches basically no no it's not wait is it oh yeah you're right sorry seriously oh yeah now it's upside down right now it's upside down all right now it's upside down again wait no it's direct and if i'm not mistaken all we have to do is put on the feet oh guys the last foot glasses glasses okay for the sake of content can you slap it on okay guys i could take my blindfold off three two one go i think he's putting his blindfold back on i want to see the feet so it turns out i can't build a keyboard blindfolded um and my friend was actually completely justified in his smugness um i'm gonna train though [Music] oh i got backstreet you guys you you emoji eyes are really important but if i could get even remotely close to doing some of this stuff with no eyes you could probably build a keyboard with your eyes also
