I Should Have Built This Sooner - Bakeneko65 CNC Build
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 авг 2024
- When the opportunity to pick up the Bakeneko65 CNC brought with it a momentary pause. Did I really want a Bakeneko65? I toyed with the idea but never really pulled the trigger because, while the board has a certain target demographic is serves well, I generally didn't see myself as part of the demo. For the past year I've mostly enjoyed the ever popular POM plate, PE foam, and Poron laden sound profile that has engrossed a good bit of the community but recently I've been deviating from that norm. So yeah, I needed a Bakeneko65. Pull up a chair, couch, or cooler and join me on this adventure today, won't you?

Interesting board and glad I finally got one to dig into. I look forward to trying to refine the sound. How would you have built it differently to get a nice deep clack? Let me know in the comments!
Good stuff brother!
Thanks, bro! One day I'll get on your level, lol. 'Preciate ya checking out the vid!
@@punkshoo Fo sho!
wanted to cop a bak60 or 65 before but after watching this I’ll def look forward to buying one in the future! nice build!
Great vid as always, Mr.ShoO!
Thanks for checking it out and for the kind words!
bakeneko is such a good board and its definitely a clack machine for sure, i think it still holds up in late 2022 because there's still not that many options with regards to gummy o ring boards unlike gasket mount
built my bakeneko with green jackets, no weight, and 30a oring and its the right amount of clack for me
Thank you for sharing your experience with your Bakeneko!
Man, clean video as usual! Love it ❤
Would you please consider making a video of your top 3 of each budget niche?
Like top 3 very entry budget board, top 3 medium board, and top 3 premium board!
I had considered doing a 75% round up later this month since that's my main area of expertise. We'll see. Thanks for the suggestion!
I built a cast Bakeneko65 for a gaming buddy of mine. I did it completely foam free, and put Glorious Panda's in it. Overall it sounded really nice, and it was a more involved build process than anything I'd done to that point. I really enjoyed putting it together and he's liking it so far. I'd definitely recommend this board to someone who wanted a unique 65% build!
Awesome, man! Thank you for sharing!
Nice vid
Amazing vid as usual. Nothing to expect but the best, If I may ask what were the 3 keyboards in the intro they look absolutely gorgeous.
Thanks for the love! Those were the Zoo65, Zoom65, and QK65 from top to bottom.
hi big fan
sequence has much better finish and 7u support from the hotswap pcb is always a plus
Very nice.
With the cast Bakeneko60, I like enough polyfill just to fully cover across inside the case when stretched out thinly into a gauze. With that amount, I think it doesn't alter the overall character too much but makes the switches sound louder - my JWICK Blacks also sound deeper for it (nylon) - and pretty much removes excess ping. It doesn't affect the feel. If you don't mind getting a little farther from the original sound, you can add more. I don't know if this would differ with the CNC 65 with the internal weight.
Thanks for the insights! I'll have to consider this when I take another look at the board. Much appreciated!
Are the extras for the cream sodas in stock? I ordered some from keebhut last week and was wondering the time frame that I might get em lol
Extras are pre-order typically. You'll need to check with your specific vendor to determine ship times.
I want to try o-ring mounted board but It's hard to find any in stock options in eu. Sequence and bakeneko really caught my eye but i can't justify paying over 50$ for shipping.
Definitely check out some EU vendors and see what's available. Might also check to see how much shipping is from China direct.
Hi great video! Just curious, is the bakeneko65 CNC still good for thocc sounds instead of clacky? If not, are there any easy mods I can add to make it a little more thoccier?
Sure is! My buddy who sent me the board had a really solid deep sounding build with a POM plate and loaded down with foams. Sounded really good. You should check it out! ruclips.net/video/hLNsOKMM1Xk/видео.html
@@punkshoo ty so much!
Would u reccomend the lube that the lube kit comes with or shoul i get a jrytox 205g0?
The lube in the kit is fine. Just mix it before use.
did you have any issues popping the switches into the plate? I cant seem to get mine to go into the plate flush so often times when I'm typing they pop right out and no matter how hard I push them in they wont snap!!!
I did not. When assembling be sure to pull the plate up to the correct height on the switch. Softer plates can be like that sometimes and need extra help. If you're having a hard time of it you can use a switch pull to grab the slots around the switch you're trying to level and pull up on the plate. Hope this helps!
@@punkshoo thank you for the advice much appreciated!
u shud do a kbd tiger 80 or 80 lite build
I would absolutely love to if they'd be willing to send me one for review. Thanks for the suggestion!

I just built mine this past weekend. I think I went in the wrong direction...I went QK65, TofuJr, Bakeneko65 lol
SUPER easy build and definitely clacky. I would like to get a PC/POM plate (personal preference) but I had purchased an extra foam kit with my TofuJr and took this opportunity to at least pad the bottom of the case with the case foam and slotted PE foam between the PCB and plate. It definitely came out less clacky. I also have some pretty "clacky switches" in there as just an initial build, so I'm anticipating once I get some of my preferred lubed switches in there and maybe swap out the keycaps (currently using DCX), I might get it to be a little bit deeper. Not a lot, but at least not a major clack machine.
Great little board all things considered though and I think it's great for beginners. I just wish that maybe it was... slightly cheaper? We're seeing some of these new budget entry boards around the $100 mark now. At $150, I think this is a little...overpriced. I know I know, the cult following will tear me to pieces, but for like $19-39 more, you could have bought a QK65 or TofuJr during the pre-order/GB runs
Thank you for sharing your experience.
