Need guide for opening Filco keyboards

I know one used to exist on Geekhack. Does anyone know where one is or can post how to do it? Something about messing up the paint by jamming a butter knife in and detaching 4 clips on both the front and back.

Please don't say things like "market value" it's not stock or anything with real value. It's 20 or so idiots that like keyboards swapping bits of plastic for crazy sums of money.

Err, since when did shares have real value ?! In fact, the comparison is apt - the price of an illiquid stock can be ...

OK, I sent:


SPH/TKL 1
SPH/SPACE 1
EMAIL <myemail>


to 7bit_r4. I have 1 Filco Majestouch tenkeyless keyboard, and those spherical caps look sick.

Looks good. Note that "EMAIL" before your email is optional and I think the caps lock and enter keys on the SPH are slightly shorter than normal ...

Tenkeyless. You can always add a separate numpad if you need it.

I wanted one too so I ended up getting the standard kit since it comes with the alpha keys.

I can type at 63 WPM with three fingers. Years of being forced to type with one hand on the keyboard and one on the mouse for gaming and no time to find the "home row" or whatever. I can actually type "properly" but I drop to like 28 WPM.

1st: QuickFire Pro (brown) : returned due unlevel board and BIOS problems.
2nd: QuickFire Rapid (blue) : returned due to bad space bar.
3rd: Filco Multicam (black) : keeping (space bar isn't perfect, but better than the QuickFires')
4th: QuickFire Rapid (red) : returned due to bad space bar.

IIRC, standart has more keys, so it fits more keyboards.

Standart125 is enough to fit the most available keyboards, like a filco.
Thanks! That sounds right. :mrgreen:

If you have a Filco, you need real doubleshot keycpas to replace the protection covers with which the keyboard comes.
OK. I'll take two sets :o ...

So, I sent a message to 7bit_R4 titled "ADDRESS", containing my address and now I have to send money, but I can't figure out this line in the instructions:
"Please choose your payment method (send a message to 7bit_R4):"
Do I need to send a message telling him I'm going to use PayPal?
