If it matters to anyone: I am visiting the US (SF/Oakland/Bay Area) this December and can bring the keyboard with me overseas.

[SOLD][EU-NO] Tandberg TDV 5020 keyboard
Due to low interest in the Norwegian market I have decided to list my Tandberg TDV 5020 keyboard here. The keyboard is in good condition and would simply need a little TLC to be back to its old glory. The board uses PS/2 and I have in the past been perfectly able to connect it to my computer with no...

[SOLD][EU-NO] IBM 3279, Norwegian layout, re-painted with USB-controller
Selling my IBM 3279 Beamspring keyboard because I'm leaving this hobby behind. Case has been professionally re-painted. Replaced the foam. Keys cleaned ultrasonically.

Re: Price Check: How much is my _____ worth?
You could wait a while until it’s four zeros I guess. We used to whine when they were a couple of hundred when I got mine. :D From what I’ve seen: restoration doesn’t add much value to these as the audience is all us nerds who’d rather do it properly for ourselves. APL caps gets you extra but not m...

Hello! I'm curious to see what I could expect to get for my semi-restored IBM 3278 beamspring keyboard. The top case has been professionally re-painted, I've cleaned all the keys plus replaced the degraded foam. I have also bought a USB controller and new solenoid, but I'm seeing that the amount of ...

Re: [WTS][NO - EU] - Canon Alps Keycaps – Bids welcome
Would you be willing to split keys from the set? Hmm, depends on wether or not TNT wants the whole set or not. :) Which caps would you be interested in, in that case? maybe the 1.5u shift and delete keys. Ideally I would get another set from an AP-810 or AP-610, but those seem to be the least commo...

[SOLD][NO - EU] - Canon Alps Keycaps – Bids welcome
Hello! I have an Alps-compatible keycap set that I pulled from a Canon typewriter some years ago. Caps are doubleshot and in quite a nice condition. Although the set isn't "complete" as per regular keyboard standards, these could make a nice addition to any Alps-based board as far as I'm concerned. ...

Re: Beam spring fly plate re-assembly tips?
I've had good success with two toothpicks. Shove them into the two holes above the beamspring and put the tips onto a table, all this while pressing the switch "down" with one hand + actually actuating the switch. This bends the beamspring towards the open bottom of the switch. With the other hand,...

Re: Beam spring fly plate re-assembly tips?
I had the same issue when I began restoring my beamspring. Honestly after quite some time I also gave up on the official IBM technique and just took the switch apart. This does come with a risk and really only makes sense if you plan on completely disassembling the keyboard, so removing the foam et...

Beam spring fly plate re-assembly tips?
Sigh... Hi guys, So I recently got my hands on two IBM Displaywriter 3279 keyboards, one of which I'm in the process of slowly restoring. I've hit a stall when I'm trying to re-attach a loose fly plate in one of the switches. I've watched tutorials online and read the manual from IBM, trying my luck...

Did you get hold of one? I bought one NOS from Unicomp through paying a double "customization fee" and specifying the type of PCB I needed and my board model #.

Re: 2 Model M with same model # but different PCBs?
Most of the original PS/2 Enhanced Keyboard line (13914xx) were later 'demoted' to fixed cables in the '90s. One way you could order the fixed cable that should work is by using a part number of an Enhanced Keyboard that's known to only have fixed cables such as P/N 52G9700 (from photos I've seen, ...
