OleVoip: Sure, any photos can go into the wiki.

Seebart: Yes it's a stand, though it's definitely not as good as the spherical rubber feet. The feet make a great angle and make the board utterly nonslippery on the table. What do you use to lube the switches btw, is it silicone lube? XMIT: Yes I could fix it by soldering Pause/Break or the key bes...

RAFI B6-C keyboard
Photos for a lovely board I got from XMIT last month. Thank again XMIT! RAFI Hall effect switches: https://deskthority.net/wiki/RAFI_RS_76_C (white slider variant) Linear switch. It's not really the smoothest switch in my opinion; the lack of stabilizer on its moderately long keys (Ctrl, Backspace, ...

Oh, nice, did you get these from seebart? The kind of corrosion reminds me of something I know... If you like to sell one of them or leftover flippers in the future, I'm interested. There's one at $60 right now. http://www.ebay.com/itm/IBM-PC-XT-Model-F-Clicky-Keyboard-Original-PC-keyboard-silver-l...

Model F switch life references?
The claim is 100 million keypresses on the DT wiki, it's likely that this came from some documentation, but where? I can't find it in either the article or the patents. Scholars please

There is an outfit in Calif that has Model Fs that are missing caps, extremely dirty, no cables, etc. Untested and prob non-working. And they still wanted $100 each for them. I told them to forget it, gave them a reasonable price, and they hung up on me. Depends on what kind of Model F's, really :)...

Everyone in their right mind wants that model. The buyer was correct to ask the seller if they wanted to cheat eBay out of a cut. That's business. Dirty and effective. FeeBay is dirty as is. Not like it is entitled to that money anyway... I think all the better if the seller can reach an agreement ...

Now that I think about it, the glorious F ping is still better than the thunk of Beam. (Again, not smoothness-related) I don't get that ping on every button though, the number row on my F122 seems to be the best area for that, even better than the F50 or the NIB XT I have. Maybe it's just me, or pos...

Seebart - I think my 122 F is fairly free of dust. I can't see any on its barrels, maybe a bit of cotton swabs and/or lube could improve it. Thanks a lot µrium! That's some dedication. Yes the pre-buckle and post-buckle smoothness is entirely different in my observation as well. It's most likely due...
