So, we received a ton of feedback about
the DIY desk PC project. And ignoring
all the complaints about those ugly legs that look so terrible and they're awful,
there were two main points that I plan to address in this the final final
video. Number one, how on earth are you
guys going to get that monstrosity upstairs and into your office?
And number two, I forget, right? Why is
it that after sitting through three freaking videos and waiting months, I
only get to see like 30 seconds of glam footage? Well, we're going to address
those things today, which I sort of already said.
The Fenix Our is a full-sized, minimalistically designed keyboard
complete with Cherry MX switches and a new white backlit variant. Check it out
at the link below. Okay, can we go through can we go
through the plan? Okay, plan time. So,
first okay, couple key things. We don't want to get any additional scratches. I
am quite certain that none of these marks are from me, but for some reason
there are a whack ton of marks along the edge. Okay, so we don't want any additional scratches. We need to take
the glass off the table. Yeah, the glass is scratched there. It's okay.
Secondhand glass. So, we'll take the glass off, put it
somewhere safe. Okay, so that's step one. Why don't we
actually just start with step one, but we have to be No, we can't scooch
the glass because if we scooch the glass, it will scratch the paint surface
underneath it. So, we have to lift the glass,
which is stuck to the paint a little bit, which I did not anticipate.
I see that. Um, oh, bloody hell.
Well, it's a good thing we got the camera rolling if we're going to have
shenanigans. Now, I got this side. Oh, my fingers. Okay, hold on. Hold on.
Don't lift yet, though, cuz these frames are really fragile.
Okay, how we doing? Oh, wow. These gloves are really slippery. Yes. Be careful.
That makes me nervous. Okay, I got it. Okay.
Oh man, my options were this guy or Dennis.
Well, hey, I can move stuff. That's easy. I just have a bad attitude.
Here, why don't we just put it on this garbage can? Oh, that's a great place for it.
I'm going to grab a measuring tape and I'm going to prove that it isn't centered where you just put it. I can't
find a measuring tape. You're lucky. So, it's funny because this wasn't a
planning thing, but our stairs are actually wider than normal stairs
because we put our server room under them and I needed some extra width. That
could be what ends up saving this project because I'd be lying if I said
that we thought at all about moving it
upstairs. Now, I'm pretty sure that the cutout in
the middle is going to allow us to rotate through the door. Okay, we can
start bringing it down. Okay, are you guys rolling? Cuz if he's going to get
tired and drop it down the stairs, I want you at least to capture it. Okay,
here we go. Oh, dang. This is really
tight. You got to move your hand. Hold on. No, no, we got to move the
There we go. There we go.
That was very, very close.
Okay, now you're first. Oh crap, my
other desk is still in there. What? Okay, just hold on. Let's just Okay.
Okay, my office is finally going to be
actually complete. Also, my computer is
uh still like booted up and stuff. I was not very prepared one moment.
No, we could just Now you have your desk on this side of
the room. Well, I was kind of thinking I might move my desk to that side of the room.
Okay. So, what started out as a simple
swap the desks operation actually has gotten more complicated. Uh Taran, do
you mind grabbing that side? So, we're going to move it over here. Our new
riders are going to be taking up a lot of the space that I would have had
downstairs in the warehouse. So, I'm actually going to move my benchmarking
area here. No, hold on. Miscalculated
the uh UPS positioning.
Ah, man. These things are heavy.
Okay, perfect. Okay, so there's networking
there. This is my new UPS that I still haven't installed.
And then um let's go get the new desk.
One, two, three. H. So, you can see those open holes on the
sides now have these blue furnace
filters. Obviously, blue was not the ideal color, but I have yet to find them
available in white or black. Still working on that. But the idea is that
all the air No, no, not I. I have to sit back there.
The idea is that all the air coming into the case will be filtered. All right,
let's go ahead and scooch it right over to the wall. Wait, where does the air leave the case?
Here down. Oh, so everything gets drawn in here across
and down. But there's filters on the bottom. I guess you don't need them.
Nope. Okay.
Oh, how am I back? I'm good. You got to keep a straight line.
Well, it's hard when it's like that. You just need No, it's easy.
Okay, just keep it straight. Okay, hold on. Hold on. Okay, all the
way in. Okay.
Okay. Oh, we got to get the glass. Yeah,
let's do that.
Okay, you good?
Okay.
Uh, let's just lean it up against that. Okay.
So, first the ultimate in static safe cleaning techniques. Wipe everything
down with a cloth.
Do it again.
I think my hands are good.
Okay. Another key aspect of this is that
your left hand side needs to go in and
slide toward the end first. But hold on. Don't move it. Don't move. Slide without
scratching paint. So,
okay. Is it in as tight as it can be? Okay.
Um Is it not? It's It's supposed to be
able to fit. Yeah. Is it going to it?
Well, that happened. Good.
Okay. Perfect. Is Well, good luck with the uh
SPC. Don't crack glass like you cracked
the Thank you. Last computer you had in here.
Thank you. Leaking mineral oil all over the place. Thank you.
So, I guess this is the part of the video where I reveal the big twist, the
big secret. The reason it's so important to clean all this stuff and have it look
as perfect as possible is this will be
our first video officially shot at 8K
on Red. So, without further ado, enjoy
the glam footage.

destiny in our sights. We've got to

life.
