I would guess it is a Oemmax MCK-860

I have an OEMMAX MCK-860 and this does look like one as well but I have never seen it with the RJ10 connector.

EDIT: Also looks like there is a din connector that comes out of the case which is interesting.

I think some manufacturers use a Taiwanese era-date. Year 80 is ~1991.

This is correct, a lot of keyboards are made in Taiwan and WYSE was one of them.

Aah too bad. It was worth a shot, anyways.

So the keys are desireable? Any particular reason? I might as well learn something.

They can be most I have seen typewriter mx mount caps go for is $60 USD

Hi All, I finally got around looking more into this keyboard and making the converter integrated into the keyboard. https://i.imgur.com/HvlfnIG.jpg So this keyboard has the option to run either in AT mode or polling mode. Polling mode I'm guessing is the ADDS protocol and I will have to dive into th...

Thanks, guys. :) I shall try the DecentKeyboards guy (also recommend by... Mu, I think?) once I've actually specified what I want, which may take me a little while! And that's quite an interesting keyboard you have there, Inverse. May I ask what it is? I suppose nowadays LK200-type keyboards are re...

Yes they are a thing. Strangely enough though the only ones that I have found are handmade.

You might want to try to replicate these, they are carved into the plastic somehow drilled maybe and then infilled with ink/paint.

Geek in Calendars reminds of this:

Anyone in the US that hasn't gotten theirs yet either? I paid the extra for tracking but once mine arrived in the US, I've been unable to track it. Hopefully I'm just being paranoid and/or impatient, but I'm starting to get a little worried. I got mine in Canada and they were not tracked when they ...

These switches are an early attempt in solving the problem with Gundams and how loose the caps feel on them. The new grey switches had a line of plastic in the grove that holds the caps so that they now fit more snugly. I love little tidbits like this. Where did you find info about these switches? ...

I have a similar keyboard with all gray cyclops and a white heavy switch for the spacebar. Looks exactly like yours but is branded "MS" and the case is yellowed as fuck. They are ultra smooth, like Cherry vintage blacks with with a heavier bump. Can you please post pictures of them so that they can...

Hi All, Back again with anther NMB adventure. This one includes the tale of the unknown switches..... After a long time I was looking for a NMB board with Gundams(soap dispenser) switches; these are the earliest switches that are known to exist with in the NMB 725 series of switches. They come in ei...

I saw an update to the "Cruciformer" GB/IC that said it supports Nexus sliders. Have these also been found to crack keycaps? I was confused when I read it but cant find much info.

Nexus slides can crack keycaps because they were based on box stem dimensions.

Thanks for the video, personally they loose the crisp click sound and I bet feel as well. That's a hard no from me.

Hi,

Just managed to get this TA QWERTY typewriter and wondering what's it worth?

caps.png

sold that same exact set about a year ago for $60. depending on how much shine there is/condition they may be worth more. or less.

Thanks

I'm interested for sure. Looking at 250 switches for me as well.

Hi,

Looking for 8 return springs for a beamspring that is near the end of restoration.

Thanks,

The case and the switches are fine but the switches are the wrong mount. The Kalih caps don't use the MX mount like the switches do.

One one of the best NMB board layouts.

This is a great looking build. In your opinion which version had the deepest sound with the least amount of ping?

Great job bring this back to life! Hopefully you can use a converter and get some more functionality out of this POS terminal board. I've bought DIN to ps/2 and ps/2 to usb converters, all seems to be working fine. The trouble is the software I need to program it. You might want to pickup a teensy ...

Good video but box switches though....

FEM is heavy computing load that makes both the CPU and GPU stressed, as well as the ram and the hard drive, we know it, but for a 2500 euro laptop claimed to be "top gun" you won't for sure expect a shitty cooling system under the hood. unfortunately it's a problem with many new apple PCs. the new...

Could anyone indentify the switch in the photo? I do not have the keyboard, but I'm considering purchasing it. To me it looks like dome with a slider type, but I can't identify which it is.

Thanks!

Can confirm NMB dome with sliders.

I always see these popup on ebay would definitely be interested in the next round.

What keycaps did it come with? Thin or the nice thick doubleshots?
