Stackpole. See here.

Guess I was too stupid so use the search function. I've tried either stackpole or a stackpole clone (green switches in a Ti99 keyboard) and they were serviceable but not pleasant.

Any idea what switches these are?

Any ideas whats going on here? Says "tasti nero-bianco" which is Italian. Has a similar plastic liner as some of the TG3 police cruiser keyboards.

Those keycaps remind me of Devlin keycaps

It's cute. Any idea what kind of switches these are?

Neat, the touchpad location seems much more usable than Cherry's 11800 or 11900 (which were similarly based on the 1800 layout). It reminds me of this monster I've been working on (which came missing the rails and still need a serial converter for the ball, but someday it will be the meatiest 1800).

CRP Peacock is probably your cheapest option, but I don't think it supports ISO (I think you could steal an enter key from an ePBT kit though).

Sets should be shipping in October, but Drop and Hammer don't have the best track record for meeting their own deadlines.

May i suggest some sugru (Google it, if you don't know what I am speaking of) to fix the frayed cable.... Anyway prices are rising, even if nos, IMHO. Prices probably were rising, but this seller takes offers and has "more than 10 available" so I have no idea. I'll keep the second one NIB, but I'd ...

Lexmark branded m13, with box https://www.ebay.com/itm/124275298889 Seller apparently has 10+ available, wonder if he accepts offers Definitely worth the $140 a piece. The one I opened was definitely NOS, as expected the seller just taped the two boxes together and shipped them, but other than the ...

Well, I did some forum spelunking and found this: 2012-04-05 21.32.14.jpg Scantlin Switches. Pic was from Haata. I'm not necessarily saying they're the same, but that's one really big case. I think they'd fit. What a strange design, I wonder how they feel. Nabbed this 5110.jpg I can't imagine the e...

Thomas would love this one right?

Quotron keyboard.

That's pretty cool. Any idea what kind of switches it uses?

In this case I think one ...

One on EBay, but might not be what you're looking for.

... And a Dasher for only $970 ... I think you forgot the '0?' at the end of the URL, but this is pretty neat (everything is complete and nothing is cracked or discolored, but it doesn't turn on, so...) https://www.ebay.com/itm/Data-General-DASHER-D2-Monitor-Keyboard-USA-MADE-Vintage-70s-Computer-T...

Primarily looking for G80/G81-3000 cases, also interested in G80-1000, G80-1500, and G80-1800 cases and OG doubleshots that fit any of those cases.

Know it'd be a mistake, but part of me wants to buy one of those terminals and play around with it. I could probably convert the board reversibly, but it looks beautiful next to the original terminal.

Nobody uses PCB mount switches. Why on earth do you try to enjoy things while thinking of not destroying or ruining them? Enjoy them while they last. What? Any PCB that doesn't support 5 pin switches is just a poorly designed PCB. 5 pin switches are better for alignment in all boards, and a complet...

They look padprinted to me, but I'm not sure.

Would Aristotle switches / pheonix stems be closer?

Wow! Did someone here get this? I have never even seen one of these outside of magcard manuals, another black badge unicorn :shock: The keyboard looks like a unique PCB layout, easily the widest I've seen outside of the beamhemoth. It certainly wasn't me. I hope whoever bought it can restore it to ...

Looks like a monstrous terminal with a built in beamspring for $2000 + shipping. Not sure if it's a good price, but it's certainly unique.

I can only hope Santa liked them enough not to give them Corridor 7

The strain relief on my K151L is tearing, so it's good to know I can get a perfect replacement for $6

What DIN5 connector is that? It looks a lot like the plug on my Unitek K151L (a shameless F AT clone), only with a satin finish. I can only imagine it's meant for making premium MIDI cables.

Those rubber donuts look like fairly standard rubber grommets (which would be easy to replace, but probably felt like the hasty modification even before the rubber hardened). Very cool to see boards from this period! Every layout was unique and every computer was expensive, so many unique switches w...

I'm sure I have some boards to trade around somewhere. I'm mostly looking for a case I can paint a garish color (CAT yellow or a dark muted purple) after I put the badge on another board (and find a novel replacement the now badgeless case). I guess I could get a NOS XT key assembly at some point (c...

Do you still have any of them?

I'd be intererested in the case (top and bottom) plus the screws, feet and cable (anything that isn't the part of the keymodule I guess).

The only metal detector I have right now is a Garrett Ace 250. I thinks it's from the early or mid 2000's, so it's probably not particularly collectable.

The item is posted in the "for trade" section instead of the "for sale" section, so I thought you wanted to trade it for some other item, but I'm not sure what kinds of items you're interested in trading for.

If you instead want sell it do you have a price in mind?
