WEBVTT 00:00:02.040 --> 00:00:08.880 we're back with another desk building video this time we're looking at the 00:00:05.880 --> 00:00:11.760 chop value revive XL which is a desk 00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:15.240 made from you guessed it chopsticks oh 00:00:12.980 --> 00:00:19.440 hopefully the desk is built from better Chopsticks than this 00:00:17.480 --> 00:00:23.699 you know I always kind of wonder what happened when I recycled my Chopsticks 00:00:21.840 --> 00:00:28.740 and uh now I know so apparently chop value has recycled over 90 million 00:00:26.340 --> 00:00:33.540 Chopsticks and they work with over 1500 Partners so that's pretty cool I like 00:00:30.779 --> 00:00:37.800 sustainability whoa signatures thank you for giving 00:00:35.700 --> 00:00:41.100 thousands of Chopsticks a second life oh that's really cool I will say already 00:00:39.480 --> 00:00:45.180 with the unboxing experience that I appreciate that they haven't added in a 00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:48.840 bunch of like useless Plastics I mean it'd be kind of weird if they did that 00:00:46.500 --> 00:00:53.760 based on what they're trying to do but I'm glad that they didn't so oh 00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:57.719 got a little packet here it says the world's most sustainable gaming desk 00:00:56.219 --> 00:01:03.660 apparently chop value has been around since 2016 I believe and I know they 00:01:01.559 --> 00:01:07.380 have a partnership with fnatic I've been told that this is a special version that 00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:15.439 they did for us whoa this is sick there's my Chopstick from 00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:15.439 Edo Sushi in Chilliwack British Columbia 00:01:18.680 --> 00:01:23.939 you know that sounds hearty 00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:28.200 that sounds sustainable so they actually did some custom engraving on this they 00:01:25.619 --> 00:01:33.600 got the ShortCircuit logo number zero zero seven triple 07 out of a thousand 00:01:30.659 --> 00:01:37.380 apparently this desk is made out of nine thousand five hundred Chopsticks I 00:01:36.119 --> 00:01:42.119 really like the aesthetic so far sustainability aside I like the look of 00:01:39.659 --> 00:01:46.320 the desk with kind of the natural uh Chopstick look let's move this over to 00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:51.240 the side here and get cracking on the rest of the stuff well 00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:54.680 lots of pictures which I like it's a little daunting when I first look at it 00:01:53.100 --> 00:01:58.799 but that's okay holy crap that's heavy these are not 00:01:57.180 --> 00:02:03.240 made out of Chopsticks believe it or not should I be assembling this on top of 00:02:00.960 --> 00:02:07.920 the desk face probably not but here we are oh perfect they have everything 00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:09.119 sectioned out clearly labeled which is 00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:15.480 really nice I poked a hole in one of these we need 00:02:11.819 --> 00:02:17.700 12 a screws we only have nine the bag 00:02:15.480 --> 00:02:21.060 was punctured we checked the box and we're unable to find the three missing 00:02:19.020 --> 00:02:25.080 screws that we have so we're gonna have to just uh get a little bit creative 00:02:23.220 --> 00:02:30.480 here this is gonna be really difficult to build with nine screws I wonder what 00:02:26.819 --> 00:02:33.200 they ate with the Chopsticks yo appeal 00:02:30.480 --> 00:02:33.200 get ready 00:02:35.760 --> 00:02:42.140 can we celebrate step three being complete whoa 00:02:39.540 --> 00:02:46.260 let's go seven more steps 00:02:44.640 --> 00:02:49.980 you know why I do these desk videos from the chair videos it's good exercise I 00:02:48.360 --> 00:02:54.720 just you know I'm building building things to improve the world to have 00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:56.940 people sit more and be productive at 00:02:54.720 --> 00:03:00.319 their desk guys what are their feet made out of so 00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:04.980 it feels like plastic attach rubber pad and install the 00:03:02.819 --> 00:03:08.459 tabletop okay what rubber pad apparently these are 00:03:07.260 --> 00:03:13.620 supposed to go on the bottom of this just have to use the Allen key to like poke the rubber gasket here to fit 00:03:11.700 --> 00:03:17.280 through it kind of a pain in the butt but I also understand why they would 00:03:15.060 --> 00:03:20.940 want this if it's directly connected to the wood I just wish the rubber gaskets 00:03:19.379 --> 00:03:25.739 went in a little bit easier instead of me having to use the allocate to like bend them to get them the inserts but 00:03:24.540 --> 00:03:31.200 that's okay what I recommend you have two people to build this maybe 00:03:29.099 --> 00:03:35.040 it might be easier for these next set of screws we are going to need our handy 00:03:33.239 --> 00:03:42.840 dandy LTT Store screwdriver so it's six screws on either 00:03:37.860 --> 00:03:46.019 side this is good step seven connect all 00:03:42.840 --> 00:03:48.780 cables to the control box peel 00:03:46.019 --> 00:03:52.799 the much less graceful peel oh my God worst peel of the Year confirmed am I 00:03:51.360 --> 00:03:56.159 missing something so just skips over installing the 00:03:54.659 --> 00:04:01.019 control box connect all cables and control box that's cool how do I connect the control box to the table the 00:03:59.040 --> 00:04:04.319 picture's also wrong but then this says m2s on the other side okay so this is 00:04:02.760 --> 00:04:07.920 just wrong straight up but that's okay it's not it's a very small thing it's 00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:14.640 just uh I don't want to do this wrong you know what screw do I use for this 00:04:12.540 --> 00:04:19.380 where does this screw into I don't see any pilot holes anywhere am I blind I've 00:04:17.100 --> 00:04:24.419 got two screws that I thought were extra screws both different sizes right 00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:28.740 going in mention it cracked the whole thing chop 00:04:26.580 --> 00:04:32.759 value I'm so sorry for defacing your desk but uh you left me no choice I 00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:35.660 don't know if this is gonna work we might need a command strip 00:04:36.120 --> 00:04:43.759 now I'm even more confused let's clip into something 00:04:40.979 --> 00:04:43.759 there's no 00:04:44.100 --> 00:04:48.740 what that's where I put a disclaimer do not try this at home 00:04:50.300 --> 00:04:54.900 one last problem that I see which is 00:04:53.340 --> 00:05:00.180 this cable doesn't reach to the control box this cable doesn't reach the control 00:04:56.820 --> 00:05:01.560 box they only gave me one extension holy 00:05:00.180 --> 00:05:03.979 sh boys oh 00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:13.979 okay I'm even more Angry than I was I 00:05:10.620 --> 00:05:15.800 found it it mounts right here it slides 00:05:13.979 --> 00:05:20.940 in obviously unfortunately it just didn't say that so 00:05:18.840 --> 00:05:25.680 I didn't know and the way it's wired makes no sense it doesn't match I'm so 00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:31.800 mad at this it's time to flip this thing over help time to flip this desk right 00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:36.120 after we tell you about our spots X split xsplit is a

Linus for 69 off your subscription nice 00:06:06.660 --> 00:06:12.840 first thing we immediately noticed once we did the sponsor read here and flip 00:06:10.259 --> 00:06:18.720 this thing over is how badly this got scratched makes sense because we were we 00:06:15.979 --> 00:06:21.960 I was trampling all over it while we're building it but that kind of sucks 00:06:19.740 --> 00:06:26.880 because I got scratch this so sorry about that the rest of the desk space is 00:06:25.080 --> 00:06:30.720 pretty good A little bit of Schmutz from the floor a few little scratches 00:06:29.340 --> 00:06:34.860 actually if you could come check this out I definitely scratch that's it right 00:06:32.580 --> 00:06:40.740 where they did the engraving it's uh supposed to be harder than maple but not 00:06:37.979 --> 00:06:44.039 harder than my weight on the hard floor well we just plug this thing in we're 00:06:43.020 --> 00:06:50.639 going to try controlling it with the Effie desk controller that we've got here and up we go 00:06:48.660 --> 00:06:56.220 foreign oh no 00:06:54.419 --> 00:07:00.360 before plugging in the table make sure there's no object above or beneath the 00:06:58.259 --> 00:07:03.600 desk within its range of movement as it may result in physical damage I hope 00:07:01.919 --> 00:07:06.600 that doesn't mean me when I laid on the desk briefly there please press the down 00:07:05.220 --> 00:07:12.240 button and hold for 10 to 15 seconds until the table stutters and beeps one 00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:13.740 moment please it's quiet which is nice 00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:17.100 A lot quieter than the dust that I have at home you can change the controller to 00:07:15.539 --> 00:07:21.539 read centimeters to inches which is really nice if Hot appears on the 00:07:19.080 --> 00:07:24.300 display please unplug and replug and let it cool off for a couple minutes before 00:07:23.099 --> 00:07:28.979 proceeding I have to worry about my desk getting hot you've got four slots for memory 00:07:27.419 --> 00:07:33.240 it's very simple you just get to your adjusted height click M and then pick on 00:07:31.500 --> 00:07:36.479 whatever profile that you want you can adjust it 00:07:35.340 --> 00:07:41.220 you know adjust it down or up or whatever and I click on it again once and then it'll adjust up back up to the 00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:46.080 height chop values website says the weight limit for the desk is 165 pounds 00:07:43.500 --> 00:07:51.660 I'm exactly 163 pounds let's go am I going up let's go to the 00:07:49.440 --> 00:07:55.199 moon so all of the components while the instructions are really annoying all the 00:07:52.979 --> 00:07:57.900 components felt very premium I will say I'm a little disappointed in the 00:07:56.280 --> 00:08:02.039 tabletop but again I don't know if they didn't say it was supposed to be the most durable thing but they said more 00:08:00.180 --> 00:08:06.000 durable than maple I don't know how durable Maple is but it got scratched up 00:08:04.199 --> 00:08:09.479 by the floor so if you're building one of these desks I suggest laying down a 00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:13.199 cloth to protect it and then just try to limit the amount of work that you're doing on top of it so it doesn't scratch 00:08:11.699 --> 00:08:18.180 how much do you think a desk like this would cost how much would you pay for something like this without 00:08:16.020 --> 00:08:22.680 knowing a ton about it I don't know like a grand like a grand okay how much is 00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:27.660 this desk 1300 us can't you get these legs 00:08:25.099 --> 00:08:31.259 150 200 bucks I mean we could probably check that we 00:08:29.160 --> 00:08:36.719 could probably confirm that but yeah you can get Vivo legs for like 300 Canadian 00:08:34.380 --> 00:08:40.320 dollars and I think for my butcher block top 00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:46.140 I paid like 100 bucks 00:08:42.959 --> 00:08:48.540 um it looks really cool I like the look 00:08:46.140 --> 00:08:54.000 harder than maple is just another way of saying that you covered it in glue 00:08:51.120 --> 00:08:57.779 though like that's because Chopsticks are not made of maple I started this 00:08:55.560 --> 00:09:00.360 video by breaking a chopstick there's some Chopsticks over there for 00:08:58.920 --> 00:09:03.839 demonstration yeah but you could break a maple Chopstick too so that's not really 00:09:02.220 --> 00:09:08.339 impressive I mean most people could I don't know if you could break follow me 00:09:06.680 --> 00:09:11.300 come on I don't know you've seen the Q2 sales 00:09:10.200 --> 00:09:13.760 figures yet 00:09:13.760 --> 00:09:20.040 unbelievable this video is filled with bangers it's a 00:09:18.060 --> 00:09:25.080 good cause it looks cool yeah it looks really cool right I want to like it hair 00:09:23.100 --> 00:09:30.600 bear how about that I want to like it there's your title 00:09:27.680 --> 00:09:35.220 whoa okay hold on we got issues it's hot I broke it I blame Linus Linus comes in 00:09:33.420 --> 00:09:39.240 he breaks everything so what the instructions said is to let it cool down 00:09:37.140 --> 00:09:41.880 I'm glad it says this rather than like setting people's houses on fire like 00:09:40.560 --> 00:09:47.940 whatever was reported the secret lab desk I appreciate it along with the desk 00:09:45.839 --> 00:09:52.440 we've got a few accessories which are extra on top of the price of paying for 00:09:49.680 --> 00:09:57.480 the desk itself we've got chop value coasters we've got chop value 00:09:54.540 --> 00:10:00.660 accessories and then I do still need to put on the cable tray the cable tray is 00:09:59.040 --> 00:10:04.680 included with the desk so let's start with that it's a little baggy here is 00:10:02.640 --> 00:10:08.580 this just more screws why would they what 00:10:06.540 --> 00:10:11.820 I mean this is cute but all the other ones came in a plastic bag and then this 00:10:10.080 --> 00:10:17.660 one that's what those two pilot holes were for brother 00:10:13.800 --> 00:10:17.660 it makes more sense now 00:10:17.700 --> 00:10:26.339 time to dig into the accessories that shop value sent to us oh 00:10:22.800 --> 00:10:28.620 chop value coasters per coaster is 75 00:10:26.339 --> 00:10:33.720 recycled Chopsticks each coaster set is 22 US Dollars only thing I don't like 00:10:30.779 --> 00:10:36.300 about them is they do not stick at all I wish there was some sort of feat I don't 00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:40.700 know how they'd be able to make that sustainably with chopsticks 00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:47.399 um but it just slides everywhere headset stand 00:10:43.980 --> 00:10:49.380 this is pretty cool nice and sturdy 87 00:10:47.399 --> 00:10:56.339 recycled Chopsticks my guess is that this would cost 00:10:51.360 --> 00:10:57.899 30 US Dollars 29.99 38 US dollars okay I 00:10:56.339 --> 00:11:01.140 actually am taking them is this a wrist dress just like Christmas 00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:08.820 I actually didn't know what all the accessories were before filming this video wrist rest 287 Chopsticks again I 00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:12.320 wish there were feet I can already tell this is going to slide around like mad 00:11:12.660 --> 00:11:19.740 overall I really love what shop value is trying to do it's obvious that they care 00:11:17.459 --> 00:11:23.760 a lot about sustainability and they put a lot of work into creating these 00:11:21.779 --> 00:11:27.180 desktops if you go to shopvalue.com you can actually watch a video it goes over 00:11:25.260 --> 00:11:30.420 kind of their whole process and for this desk that we have here it was actually 00:11:28.620 --> 00:11:34.620 manufactured and packed locally here in Vancouver Canada that's really cool I 00:11:32.339 --> 00:11:38.459 love the accessories like Lina said I really want to love this desk uh the 00:11:36.600 --> 00:11:41.220 price point a little high for me but again if you care about sustainability 00:11:40.019 --> 00:11:45.360 it's something that you're interested in you should definitely check it out link below thank you very much for watching 00:11:44.339 --> 00:11:51.360 if you want to check out some of the other videos that I've done on desk you can check out the secret lab Magnus Pro 00:11:49.680 --> 00:11:57.260 that me and Dennis did it was kind of a chaotic video but cool desk really cool 00:11:53.339 --> 00:11:57.260 gamer desk or any of my chair videos
