Shit man. This is a project here. I would say try and find a product called Evapo-Rust. I use it all the time on springs, screws, etc. It works like magic (chelation) and isn't harmful to metal like acids and you won't have an issue with flash rust after derusting. Acids tend to take good metal alo...

I also face the intractable problem of the rusty springs, no helpful solution after searching whole forum.

Tried vinegar and WD40 also, still like shit.
If you have good idea finally, really really appreciate it.

Nice beam spring in good condition, congrates.

But 1250usd becomes 1600usd, 350$ for shippng? Can't imagine that even.

Hi, Wodan, no idea if you would still reply the thread 3ys later, I'm interested in the foam cut part of the whole project. Is it hard or any diffculty I will face if I decide to take same way with a laser engraving machine to make the foam in my near beamspring restoration? Will cost lot of time t...

1450 for a beamspring when I bought 1 2 years ago for 600.......................

Fuarrrrrrrrrrrrrrr these are exponential rises man. Strong sales!

Time flies, price grows.

Rare selectric caps compatible for beam springs. Hey sorry, never received any notifications for the responses so I thought that no one responded to the thread. Yes the selectric I caps are fully compatible on any beamspring board. If you need other info or whatever just hit me up! I like them, but...

I have kept the board for some months, its in very good condition when I got it, but still confused about what it is.
its green alps switch if caps removed.

Hello, all. I received some pics yesterday from one of frineds who is also buckling spring fan just like me. As never seen the board especially with square black IBM label, so I guess better post here to share the pics. 466e8e6f492fab50f39cfa28cacfa85.jpg And the back label printing the date of 20OC...

Rare selectric caps compatible for beam springs.

Nice find, continue the conversion progress with more photos, please.

Alright I'll volunteer - just PayPal me $3500 or so for proper plane fare, maybe $2500 for an at least decent place to stay, and also whatever a tolerable sedan costs to rent for a few days in Italy (I figure $1500 or so should be good) - and I'll check it out and see if I can rescue any of those b...

Nice work again. Any mod plan?

I like this one, I really enjoy this one.

interesting

Any clue about the f50 pcb after half year past?

Is there any f50's PCB existing? Maybe could make some mod for an M50.

PS: mine is a beamspring

The 3178 variant without "blue switch" is rare also, never seen this before.

Yes, that picture is from a geekhack thread on fitting an F122 chopped pcb in an XT case. To make this into a guilt-free mod kit, we'd reuse the original bottom metal plate of the XT and just work on a new custom PCB + top barrel holder plate + mat. I now see what you meant about the curved plate, ...

Seems the pic comes from Orihalcon with a f107 board cut and mod, but its still a good idea. I think there must be someone who could finish the PCB design if even the 3277 pcb has been completed. Xwhatsit could still take over the controller job also, but can't think of how to get the appropriate cu...

I really don't think there is any necessity to talk like this, everything here, including laughing or laughing back, doesn't make sense at all. No one even would win, or change others' mind, so just stop and talk more about boards here.

Just be some reasonable guys, plz.

How fixed the cracks? Sodering iron? How would it work in plastic like that?

Would you like take a photo for this part with more details, especially for the cables for connection? Once time, I got an f at with no luck working also, end up finding the different color cables messed.

Why shipped in different parts?

Interesting thread, follow this absolutely.
