Thanks for having me! It was an absolute blast and joy to do!
-
Woah, did not expect to see Wintergatan content here, but this is a welcome surprise!
-
"Fingerspitzengefühl" does not only describe the ability to peal of a sticker perfectly but its definately a good example

While it is rare to find woodwork in a PC build, most carpenters (especially cabinet builders) would advise applying wood glue along the seams of the frame. Skipping this common step is kind of like attaching a cooling tower without thermal paste. Once the glue dries it can more than double the durability of your wood project while reducing the chance of spitting the wood when inserting screws. You guys did a beautiful job, and I imagine it was a lot more work than this video showed.
-
As a finish carpenter watching it take this much effort for you guys to make this makes me feel a little better about knowing the limited ammount i know about computers. Takes all types

Fun story about tolerance stack, I was working on fixing someone’s old cad model for a football stadium and nearly every concrete piece was off by a few 256ths of an inch. By the end of the stadium, from left to right, there was nearly a two inch gap at the side wall. Took forever to redesign. As soon as Alex said that, I got flashbacks. Nightmare stuff.
-
:elbowcough:Wow. Fantastic :yt:
-
I have no idea how it could be a video, but I would 100% watch a video of Alex learning welding and Linus being shown how to properly, and safely, use power tools.
-
You got Alex all he tools he wants, and he still holds up the paint table with a clamp. He's evolving from an engineer to a fabricator. He's even learning that if you let the boss ruin it, you can save yourself grief when you ruin it too.
-
Missed opportunity for having a hard loop watercooling system set up to look like a marble run. Because wood, water and electronics is a flawless mix.
-
Just seems like y'all have a great time. Love watching the crew work together and solve problems to make such awesome stuff.
-
This is one of the coolest episode! Congratz to Linus and his Team! It was fun watching you guys build this! Amazing work guys!
-
Linus 2017: metal case Linus 2019: cardboard pc Linus 2021: wooden pc It’s evolving just backwards
-
The irony of "starting it and fixing it as we go" being the whole reason Martin had to give up on the MMX.
-
If anything this just showcases the talent that works at LMG! I kind of wish there was more stuff like this on the channel because watching the team work together on projects like this is so nice to watch.
-
That was such an amazing project. I'd like to see more of of this.
-
Using wintergatan's music in the background is just the perfect touch. (In case you don't know, you can download and use them for free)
-
As a German it took me a few tries to understand the german word, but what he said was "Fingerspitzengefühl" which literally translates to "Finger-tip-feeling". It just refers to generally fine-motoric dexterity.
-
Awesome build. Love the integration between the wood and pc components together. :)
-
These are the best videos I look forward to their custom pc builds every time I see a new vid on the channel!!!
