I had one of these in a similar situation... the power LED would turn on but no input at all was going through. The caps were still measuring alright, so I did some poking around elsewhere and determined that the controller likely failed. I cut my losses, took off all the switches and bought one of ...

Not on me, I'll grab some pictures tonight. Edit: Pics time: 20170513_020529501_iOS.jpg My wimpy Iphone camera isn't enough to accurately photograph, but upon further investigation I've discovered that the sides on many of the alpha block caps are beginning to yellow in spots as well. All those are ...

My 08 vintage Unicomp has also started yellowing the in last year or so in roughly the same shade. Mine's doing it a bit less uniformly though, currently only affecting (if I'm remembering correctly off the top of my head) the Caps Lock, Spacebar, and Insert keys. Have been meaning to do the acetone...

I've been able to dye ABS with iDye poly in near boiling water with a mesh strainer. It only takes a few seconds for the pigment to bond, I place the caps in the strainer and submerge in the water for about 4-5 seconds before pulling them back out to cool. Only need to do this a few times to get goo...

Opinion requested: Am thinking of putting to use some greens I have laying around into a fullsize case, but don't have enough for much more than the alphas. Would it be advisable to fill in the modifiers with oranges or will the difference drive me nuts? take off the tactile leaf. it will be heavye...

I found one of these at the recycling center once and swore it had to be some sort of hybrid membrane, they really do feel quite good. Nice review. Good rubber dome boards are definitely under appreciated. Agree. If you genuinely like old keyboards you just can't have the stigma that all domed board...

My problem with linear Cherries is mainly that they are scratchy and badly weighted; blacks are too stiff and reds too light. Vintage MX blacks, as I showed in one of my videos, are noticeably smoother, but they're even stiffer, so they're still not ideal. It's this. My hands fatigue with blacks, a...
