That's the problem with 3d printed stuff. It makes for great prototypes but it makes for a lousy finished product. Those old german military aluminum boxes look amazing as well as the authentic typewriter keycaps.
This is absolutely amazing. Legitimately looks like old military hardware, it's multi part nature even plays to it. As the original purpose for the supply box showed, radio sets, etc rarely came in one chunk, but were a set of modules that could be interconnected.
I actually really like the fact that it's a split keyboard multi-module cyberdeck. Really unique and has a wonderful rustic used-future charm. Brilliant idea with using an old typewriter's keycaps!
wow. the look is just spot on. great keycaps, and I love the spiral cord. If I had to change anything, the top halves of the keyboard enclosures look a bit empty. maybe add a large solar cell, or some kind of reference sheet or something. but man, this thing is stunning!
Man, super nicely done. Could easily be a piece of Militech Gear. :) Love the Look with the Typewriter Keycaps, it fits perfectly. (Und der Vorratskasten hat ja eine ganz fantastische Größe für ein Project-Case, da werde ich mal Ausschau nach halten. :) )
This is very cool. I tend to collect military cases as well and am always interested in seeing what others do with them. Might be cool to add 2 more touch screens, one to each of the keyboard halves, then have them connect via the USB keyboard connector. Just a thought...
@@MakenModify I've been reading up and watching videos about cyberdecks this month to try and build up confidence to start, and honestly, there's something about the way you explained things that made the subject seem less daunting.
@@draeci hehe thank you. It's not so hard, but it took me a while to find/chose and get all the parts. I think almost a year but final assembly were mostly in one day. Have a look at the CyberdeckCafe discord if you have not already. Lots of help there ;)
@@MakenModify your patience definitely paid off! :) I have been meaning to join but I'm very conscious of how little I know and don't want to annoy people, so I will do a little more reading first. ♥️
this one ist echt riiichtig geil geworden 👍👍👍 sehr cool gemacht und als einer der ne mechanische tastatur zu schätzen weiss, dann erst noch ortholinear 😍 einfach top
why this has potential? because like the keyboard, other "box" modules could be made, like... i don't know, a satellite antenna? a hard drive or blue ray module?, a hi-res/HiFi audio card, a speaker? just saying...
Awesome build, man! Question though: Was it tough getting used to typing on a separated keyboard? Perhaps I never learned to type properly, but looking at your layout, I'm sure I would catch my self moving one of my hands over to the other half of the keyboard to type on a particular key.
I learned touch typing in school but i still used some letters with the wrong finger. Switched to split when I did my first keeboard (did a video on it). Had to get used to it for a week or so but ever since i mostly use split keyboards
That’s not a cyber deck that’s just a macguiver lap top where’s the neural interface you know the thingie that plugs to your skull or some times wrist no offense I mean a macguiver laptop is still impressive……..
these are Dfh.f 43 "Doppelfernhöhrer" from WW2. I once found them on a trash pile 😅... converted them to something modern and added shoe laces for the cable braiding xD
This is awesome, the whole old german military theme looks so cool. On a side note: If you grow out your side burns, you would be the splitting image of our great Kaiser Wilhelm the first. :)
so cool! saw it on the cyberdeck cafe stream a couple of weeks back, awesome to see a bit more of it. The paint job on the outer case is fantastic, how did you get the peeling off paint effect? and the brushed aluminium look of the bare metal parts look great, is that just a little of the layers of the print showing? Really looks like metal.
Tank you. I have not yet. I have some choc hot swap sockets (accidental order, wanted normal ones). Chocs are still a bit expansive and I have so many other switches I need to use first 😅 but they are on my list ;)
@@MakenModify appreciate your reply! I also thought later that the split keyboard is very popular now so there is that as well. Having watch quite a few more cyberdeck videos, I just wanted to let you know you that this video is really awesome. Look forward to more.
Geile Optik!! Als Funkamateur hätte ich mich vermutlich noch für die ein oder andere HF Komponente entschieden. Da mag ich den HackRF One !!! Oder einen günstigen SDR Stick.
Sieht super aus. Nur bei den Schriften warst du etwas einfallslos. Die Aluplatten hatten bestimmt eher eine DIN und keine Helvetica oder Arial. Und Stencil für die Kiste? Die BW hatte da auch was anderes als die Army. ;)
Hehe als ehemaliger Mediengestalter muss ich dir da leider recht geben... Zumindestbei der Kiste... Laut CI nutzt die Bundeswehr nu mal Frutiger (aktuell) aber wollte das Projekt endlich fertig haben 😬
Sweet build, subbed on that mustache alone sir haha. Can't grow decent facial hair to save my life lol. Would be cool to have a dual monitor on that setup, though I imagine it would make the build a little tricky for cables etc. Looking forward to more vids, nice work!
Very nice looks like military 70’s green. I have seen switches for turn on and off you could add those and also your demonstration was backwards couldn’t see anything you typed lol. It would be cool if you added another screen for radar and another for maps but separate at different angles so it looks more cyberpunk and a decryption cryptography or even stenography screen and also perhaps add a ham radio interface with old school Satellites dish smaller and large old school cell phone that looks bulky on the side lol or even ad a press and hold hand speaker like the ones cops have, heck I’d do both lol. Plus network, router, and even server controls and switches. Cool Wi-Fi a router looking antenna & belts btw. Additional add ons could include climate readings, proximity sensors, and other modules that others have added to arm decks etc 😊
these are Dfh.f 43 "Doppelfernhöhrer" from WW2. I once found them on a trash pile 😅... converted them to something modern and added shoe laces for the cable braiding xD
Its neat thats for sure, not my taste but absolutely well done. Now I'm gonna have to go thrifting and find my inspiration. Need ot be that quirky idiot at work that plugs this in to work with haha.
hehe yea that was mostly for the look and feel. Waterproofing would have needed other connectors which take up so much space that these boxes would have been to small ;)
Space constraints are a thing I’m sure, but it’d be cool if you could do this using only two boxes! Still a split keyboard, but maybe use the lids from the keyboard for dual screens and drop the trackpad.
was actually think about something similar but then there would have to be a lot of connections between the halfs. But the first intention was to build a keyboard and so that grew from there ;)
@@MakenModify si de echo pero me la paso trabajando no tengo tiempo de compartirles mi proyecto es con una intel stick y una lcd 4 con targeta controladora HDMI saludos genial.
@@MakenModify si de todos modos te agradezco muchísimo por tomarte el tiempo de compartir tus geniales proyectos te mando mi saludos desde michoacan mexico.
if you can 3d print a plate to push into the usb ports and cover them up to keep bits from going into them that would help maintain the look of the case and be functional also. do the earphones work with that setup
Yea it definitely dose but an on screen keyboard makes the tiny screen even smaller ;) but yea if you have an optimized app it is an option, just hacking at the terminal is not fun without a keyboard😬
Very cool aesthetic. I like the modular and the army look, combining both is great. sehr cool gemacht, auch glücksgriff die idee dafür im müll gefunden zu haben xD

No offense to anyone else but this is the best looking Cyberdeck yet.
By not a small margin either
It is absolutely brilliant. I audibly gasped when I saw the finished keyboard!
That's the problem with 3d printed stuff. It makes for great prototypes but it makes for a lousy finished product. Those old german military aluminum boxes look amazing as well as the authentic typewriter keycaps.
It is so beautifully over engineered!
I beg to differ
This is absolutely amazing. Legitimately looks like old military hardware, it's multi part nature even plays to it. As the original purpose for the supply box showed, radio sets, etc rarely came in one chunk, but were a set of modules that could be interconnected.
Hide this in the Aliens movie and nobody can tell it's not where it belongs

Amazing work!
Keycaps look amazing.
Very concise units, command an audience.
wow. the look is just spot on. great keycaps, and I love the spiral cord. If I had to change anything, the top halves of the keyboard enclosures look a bit empty. maybe add a large solar cell, or some kind of reference sheet or something. but man, this thing is stunning!
by FAR the coolest shit I've seen this week next to cryptography
An incredibly beautiful Cyberdeck build. Thank you for sharing!!! That keyboard is gorgeous.
Man, super nicely done. Could easily be a piece of Militech Gear. :) Love the Look with the Typewriter Keycaps, it fits perfectly.
(Und der Vorratskasten hat ja eine ganz fantastische Größe für ein Project-Case, da werde ich mal Ausschau nach halten. :) )
danke :) Aktuell scheint's noch genug auf ebay zu geben.
I would prefer a much smaller cyberdeck but that keyboard is giving me Big Thoughts on my next build.
Wow, I absolutely adore this! Excellent work! You might be giving this old eternal Informatik-Bachelor some of his love for the subject back! :D
Those key caps NAILED it. Very nice work.
thank you ;)
This looks amazing omg i want one
There is only one but it's not sold yet 😜
Very cool execution, not sure if it works as an actual Cyberdeck. But I very much like the look of and operation of the system.
This is very cool. I tend to collect military cases as well and am always interested in seeing what others do with them. Might be cool to add 2 more touch screens, one to each of the keyboard halves, then have them connect via the USB keyboard connector. Just a thought...
Yea thought of it but the keyboard was to high (no space for the screen). But should be doable with a lower keyboard👍
Fantastic build, absolutely love it. I can see this finding a place in some spy movie as a fully functional prop, it really looks that good.
Was not expecting to like this one at the start but after seeing it @6:14, WOW its amazing! Love this build
Na das ist mal ein Cyberdeck der ganz besonderen Art!
Amazing!!!
How to tell me you already know my wifi password without telling me you know my wifi password
This is so awesome! I have to build this or if you have the ability to make the same keyboard I would 100% buy it. So cool.
The sound of the keys were amazing :)
i want comics and cartoons to be inspired by this and make something
It makes you wonder what kind of world would have something like this and why.
Damn. I sort of want to make one like it but I can’t imagine a use for it.
Super gemacht! Very well done!
Thank you so so much for showing your process. This is not only a gorgeous project, but your video is very calming and reassuring. :)

nice build, i feel like the inside of the keyboard lids could use some stickers. or SD card holders.
Good idea 👍
cool vid man, love your aproach of the cyberdeck. keep up the good work!
why this has potential? because like the keyboard, other "box" modules could be made, like... i don't know, a satellite antenna? a hard drive or blue ray module?, a hi-res/HiFi audio card, a speaker? just saying...

hehe, yea that was a cooperation with Elon Musk, he wanted to provide the brain interface, but so far most test subjects died. So complain to him 😬
Looking like something out of Fallout Boy
Amazing job! Great aesthetic and brilliant execution
This is EPIC! Looks really goood!
thats the coolest cyberdeck ever made :O
i LOVE the military look :D
Ganz schön! Looks like there's some space left in the covers of the keyboards for some extra screens?
Yea, not enough for screens (tried that) but yea some space that could be used
What are the headphones you were using? They looked vintage but with a usb connector?
these are Dfh.f 43 "Doppelfernhöhrer" from WW2. I once found them on a trash pile 😅... converted them to something modern and added shoe laces for the cable braiding xD
Phenomenal design!! A lot of character and style. 😊 Just curious why your "Z" and "Y" locations are swapped?
German keyboard layout ;) there are more differences if you look at the placement of symbols :) makes it hard to get key sets
Nice look and sound is great
This is awesome, the whole old german military theme looks so cool.
On a side note: If you grow out your side burns, you would be the splitting image of our great Kaiser Wilhelm the first. :)
xD yea maybe when I'm past my 60s ;)

Hehe thx. Painting will be the next video I think. Will go into detail how I did it 😉
@@MakenModify awesome, subbed and looking forward to it!
this is what a cyberdeck is meant to be.. A kitbashed/Hacked together Portable PC.. love this one..
I like this one. Have you tried the choc switches?
New sub btw.
Tank you. I have not yet. I have some choc hot swap sockets (accidental order, wanted normal ones). Chocs are still a bit expansive and I have so many other switches I need to use first 😅 but they are on my list ;)
That is amazing, really great work. One, minor suggestion. If it were possible I would try and put the keyboard into one box and have it fold out.
Tried that but would not work with mx style switches. Maybe with sol low profile ones, but that would also mean different keycaps.
@@MakenModify appreciate your reply! I also thought later that the split keyboard is very popular now so there is that as well. Having watch quite a few more cyberdeck videos, I just wanted to let you know you that this video is really awesome. Look forward to more.

hehe ja etwas kleines würd noch beim Bildschirm hin passen denke ich ;)
F@##$$.. Respect! WoW!
Damn dem key caps.
That Cyberdeck is the sexiest thing I've seen this month!
Thank you 😊
Sieht super aus. Nur bei den Schriften warst du etwas einfallslos. Die Aluplatten hatten bestimmt eher eine DIN und keine Helvetica oder Arial. Und Stencil für die Kiste? Die BW hatte da auch was anderes als die Army. ;)

I'm just gonna stick with my laptop. lol
Probably a good choice but this has more style ;)
This is absolutely insane.
I obeyed and bought some typewriters.
Welcome to the rabbit hole ;)
Wonderful, as well as beautiful!
Wie waere es mit mehr Funk-Funktionen, zB. ein SDR oder NFC/RFID?
Hab tatsächlich mittlerweile in einem ein hackRf one 😉
i wanna make one
This is dope.
SICK!!!
Seems like something that would have been used in the unification war in the cyberpunk 2077 universe, hella dope choom!
My cyber decks will always be my two favorite computers. The Panasonic Toughbook CF19 and 31. I own three and looking for more all the time.
Cool
Very Nice
Awesome.
Very nice looks like military 70’s green. I have seen switches for turn on and off you could add those and also your demonstration was backwards couldn’t see anything you typed lol.

Hehe let me order 5 more boxes 😉 yea it has quite some potential for ubgrades but I might not find the time for that.
One of these with some lead shielding applied is a computer for the apocalypse. Bravo sir
This bad boy... Uuuh, I agree with those who say that this is the better looking of them all.
looks super cool, do you have a model number or name for the headphones in the b-roll?
these are Dfh.f 43 "Doppelfernhöhrer" from WW2. I once found them on a trash pile 😅... converted them to something modern and added shoe laces for the cable braiding xD
Best military grade cyberdeck of all congratulations
“Are you jacking in yet?” “Ja “*is just undoing the compute module*
Why dont monetize? Bro u gotta eat.
Meanwhile did but more because else the YT algorithm starts to hate me... I have a day job for food 😉
That looks great and it is better than military equipment, it works. Nice Job,
First 5 seconds impression : i'm jealous of this moustache
Concept is great but you should jazz it up with some paint so it doesn't look so much like grotty old military surplus junk.
Its neat thats for sure, not my taste but absolutely well done.
Now I'm gonna have to go thrifting and find my inspiration. Need ot be that quirky idiot at work that plugs this in to work with haha.
Looks like it could be ruggedized a little more perhaps a inter lock between the three parts so it could take a drop if it were knocked off a table.
Cool build I think I'm going to build a hackers themed one. Facilitate movie of all time.
WOAH!! You sir just gained a subscriber! this is easily the coolest cyberdeck I've ever seen, ausgezeichnete Arbeit!
Danke schön :)
Wow I picked up Adler caps this week and today I see this. Love it.
I wonder if you could fit a cyberdeck in just one of those boxes
Possible i would say. If you use a smaller keyboard and use it in place of the track pad.
@@MakenModify I'll look into that, the case is gorgeous lol
That’s amazing project 😎 not waterproof but looks amazing.
hehe yea that was mostly for the look and feel. Waterproofing would have needed other connectors which take up so much space that these boxes would have been to small ;)
Brilliant build. Thanks for sharing!
I like it but there is multiple things you are missing ,you got to be able to grab and run with it ,water , dust ,dropping it ...
Your system is FULL EMP IMMUNE!?
hehe I don't think so but it at least looks like it would ;)
@@MakenModify yeah jut add new connector and metall covered wire.
Or cap on connectors and it's become - military standard NUKE EMP immune system.
why not add some decals on he keyboard boxes top part? or e-ink something?
sorry bro can u go over the intro again i was mesmerized by ur moustache
That is gorgeous. If I was rich I'd be offering you stupid money right now to buy one!
hehe thx. I guess that would be just the right amount for me to sell it ;)
Space constraints are a thing I’m sure, but it’d be cool if you could do this using only two boxes! Still a split keyboard, but maybe use the lids from the keyboard for dual screens and drop the trackpad.
was actually think about something similar but then there would have to be a lot of connections between the halfs. But the first intention was to build a keyboard and so that grew from there ;)
@@MakenModify you could run the battery in one half and the computer in the other. Then you'd only need keyboard and power connectors.
@@Starfireaw11 didn't you say dual screen? 🙃 anyways you could do many things differently but that's the idea, just make it the way you want it ;)
This video made me throw my feet around while sitting in my chair. What an amazing build, I’m excited to see how creative this community can be
Hehe, glad you like it. Yea cyberdecks are a great creative hobby 😁
FANTASTIC mustache. Also, do you know where I can get some red 1980s style toggle power switches?
Thank you. Not really eBay would be my first guess or maybe make new ones look like old ones by extending the handle or something ;)
I love your shirt

Yea might do that. The earphones work but not with the deck, since there is no audio out port atm ;)
Whoa, that's a mighty cool project! Military precision :)
thank you :) would not go as far as calling it precision but good enough I guess :D
Looks amazing. I'm guessing this would run without the keyboards? It's pretty compact without them.
