Mechancial Keyboards. What's the big deal? In this video, Taha explores the world of custom and luxury mechanical keyboards, talks to Taeha Types and Glarses about the hobby and history of mechanical keyboards, and learns how to build his very own keyboard. Welcome to the rabbit hole that is mechanical keyboards! Hopefully this servers as a beginner's guide to mechanical keyboards!
