For every english viewer...
Hello and welcome to the second episode
of useless tutorial
I never thought I'd upload a second episode
Today, as you could already read on the title
and on the thumbnail
we will make a custom spacebar
For that you need
of course
a keyboard where you
can put your spacebar out, because
otherwise
there is no way to do it
You also need a picture of your choice
of course, as you can see in the thumbnail, I took an ahegao picture
Ehmm.... Jup
Very nice
And now I'm going to show you how to do this all together
shouldn't be so difficult if you're not doing anything wrong
What you also need would be a glue
I do not recommend using hot glue because it could melt the spacebar
on some places
I now use instant glue
but I will show something in a video
If you peel off the paper, there will be glue residues
but if you want to keep that on forever it shouldn't be a problem
I would recommend that you use a laser printer (bruh don't use one) if you print out the picture
even if the color goes off one way or another, a laser printer is better
but if you don't have one that's still not a problem
Let's start with gluing
Of course, you have to get your spacebar out of your keyboard at the beginning
for this I used a keycap puller and
I didn't do well but i did it in the end
Even if the video doesn't look good
I have two angles
one here
and here
Jup
You have to turn the paper first so that
the printed side down is
Then you have your spacebar
Then you have to look how your spacebar is
of course you can't have the spacebar the wrong way round
so that it look like this on your keyboard
which would not be good
So you just have to make sure that it's right around
Then turn them around
Then you have to get yourself a scissors
and can cut out a large area
I might
cut to this point
and also up here
so you have enough paper wrong should it go wrong
It doesn't have to be cut perfectly, just so that you won't be bothered by the excess paper
You can then just throw away the rest
Once you've done that, I would recommend you to compare the two again so that you don't glue wrongly
Have you compared it then you have to look where you can best glue it
Now you can see that a lot of paper is sticking out
and then you can cut it all away
Then I recommend that you start
glueing on the long sides of the space bar
Then you have to bend the sides of the paper up
and hold on for a while so that the paper sticks to the spacebar
Have you done that you can cut off a large part of the protruding paper
When you've done that, you can cut off a part of the paper here
because you no longer need it
Now your spacebar looks like this
Now you have to glue this part here
the
this side
For that you have to crease the paper here
Now you have to glue the side
Then when you've creased one side
you have to put glue on it again
If you then glued that to it, there should be a triangle at the top
You then have to glue this again
And then hold it for a while
When you've done that, you have to do the same on the other side
When you have finished both sides you just have to cut off any excess paper
After you are done you just have to wait a bit and then you can put the spacebar on your keyboard
That's it with the video
I hope you liked it
