Hi friends! Join me for a relaxing, soft-spoken cleaning and restoration of one of the greatest keyboards ever made: the legendary IBM Model M! This is the type of keyboard that I grew up with, and I was lucky enough to snag one in a lot of old electronics I picked up. It was pretty grimy to start with, but as you'll see over the course of this video, it cleaned up remarkably well! A huge thanks to this channel's FUS RO+ tier supporters on Patreon and YouTube memberships who voted for this as June 2023's Patrons' Pick/Members' Choice video!
ASMR triggers include ear-to-ear soft speaking, incidental mouth sounds, clicking, close attention, and typing sounds. I recommend listening with headphones for the best experience! ๐ง

WHAT IS ASMR? ๐จโ๐ซ
---------------------------------------------------
My videos are designed to trigger a relaxing feeling called ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response). ASMR is a particular sensation that some people experience when they hear quiet sounds like whispering and soft speaking or watch certain actions like slow hand motions. ASMR is often described as a pleasant tingling on the head and neck, accompanied by a feeling of deep calm and mild euphoria. Many people watch ASMR videos to relax and manage anxiety, stress, or insomnia. To learn more about ASMR, check out https://asmruniversity.com/about-asmr/what-is-asmr.
