    Great to see my little keyboard has been such a big hitter. All kudos to Lorenzo for the perfect starting point with his cute model, and to Perifractic for highlighting both projects.

    It's 215am and instead of sleeping I am watching tiny keyboard installations. I should have watched it in the morning so I could have had direct cereal access too. :)

    Such a positive, calm wholesome channel full of dad jokes. Quickly became one of my favourite CZcams subs. Totally reminds me of all the time spent watching my brother play games on his commodore Amiga 500 back in the 80s, even the time I accidentally spilled a glass of milk on it 🙈

    I hope Puppyfractic got a mention in the end credits too lol, I presume she get's paid in scrumptious doggy treats. The mini PET is a thing of beauty, really appreciate all the hard work you guys put into these unique builds.

    I love your voice. I'd let you talk into my ear about C64 as i fall asleep any day.

    The Puppyfractic Nostalgia Flakes cereal box cracks me up so much! You could also end each episode with a box of Puppyfractic Cheerios. Anyway, another great project! It must be like typing on one of those older cell phones that had the full slide-out QWERTY keyboard.

    So I was so shocked that someone would show up at your house that it took me a minute to get the joke about a fan showing up at your house. lol

    I love this channel for 2 3 things: 1) Doing stuff because you can, and no other reason needed. 2) PCBWAAaaay..... & 3) Puppyfractic.

    New drinking game: everytime Perifractic says "PCB Way", take a drink of your favorite beverage. READY, set, RUN... go... goto drink... :-)

    Now I've had time to think about it a bit more, I think I've come up with a better idea for the key caps. Maybe there's a Blackberry model which has possibly the right size (and maybe even shape) keys? All key caps would, of course need to be 'spares' from non-working items. Repurposing them, as opposed to destroying or binning them. LOL.

    That's mad but fantastic. Someone is going to find a way to make key caps, you can bet on it! Cheers
