The desire to want never ends, most people probably never reach their true endgame they just conceed once they realize how much they spent on shit they never needed in the first place

Thats a risk with most group buy companies, something happens after the warranty period and you're basically shit out of luck

Not an easy question to answer since budget is a broad term.

Most enthusiast look at sub $250 kits as budget from what ive seen but a budget build is really just whatever you can afford without breaking the bank.

How much are you looking to spend if you dont mind me asking?

Pour isopropyl alcohol between the battery and case to help soften the adhesion then use a flat plastic spudger.

Use a left and right motion to cut away at the glue and more of a downward force as to not apply too much pressure on the battery, for safety reasons i suggest wearing gloves, eye protection and doing it outside

I wish my first was hot like yours

Cant tell if thats blue or purple but the color looks nice

Looks beautiful

Same, i love the look of 60 and 65% but i MUCH prefer the functionality of 75 and tkl

Looks good, like these guys i'd recommend giving it a stain or at least apply a sealant to help preserve it

In that case just get a roll of masking tape, you can find that literally anywhere for cheap
