That is a server side issue that our new (lazy) overloads need to fix.

I believe if i want to cover a R2 i would need mods and extra ? Looking at the site at least that is what it appears i need.

You did however make me get my round4 out of retirement and put them on my novatouch. I remeber back in the day people trying to produce cherry mount sliders but i dont know ...

Some of the older M122s used the same sized case as an F but they where not exactly the same, a long long time ago i did read a thread about someone modding one but i don't even remember if it was on geekhack (pre deaskthroity).

If its a hairline crack i would leave it, the plastic is not the best ...

Hi mate, been a while. I forgot how good your photos always are . I love that HHKB it looks like a BBC Micro!

I am assuming that a set would fit an R2 realforce ? If so it may be time for my novatouch + black on grey dyesubs to be retired as my work board and for the R2 to take its place.

I missed all the drama! This is indeed sad, i am happy to host an alternative or at the very least archive the board.

I have quite a lot of experience fixing model F boards, almost anything can be fixed its just a case of how much effort you want to put in. Is the board on ebay intact ? What about the springs ? A rusty plate and case is nothing to worry about that can be fixed but if too many springs are gone then ...

Thanks i will check them out , I got some gateron milky yellows v2 they are very nice but i would be interested to try some others as well. I even made my own space bar switch with a MX black spring that i have dubbed the milky bee switch :) .

This is getting dangerous , i am getting back into this ...

Hello Everyone, it has indeed been too long. I have not been around the keyboard scene much but i have recently started to get back into it and boy have things moved on! I have myself a Keyhcron Q1 Max with geteron reds (since when did geteron make such nice switches ?) and i want to take advantage ...

I have been thinking of doing this. There are 2 books on typesetting in troff (Document Formatting & Typesetting on the UNIX System Vol 1 ISBN 0-9615336-2-5 and Vol 2 ISBN 0-9615336-3-3) that have never been digitised and i have been thinking of doing this for them i know most people will use LaTeX ...

I have not seen this before its quite strange. Thanks to the applied violence from jsheradin we can see its a single injection moulded part so the sticker theory is indeed out. The edge of the top texture looks almost painted on, i am wondering if its a worn injection mould however this also does ...

Regarding the shift key, I recommend adjusting the spring by following the QC secrets video in the manual on the project web site. As the last resort noted in the video, switching the spring with another spring or with a spare from the first aid kit can also fix the issue.

Ignore me i am an ...

Are you willing to sell just and extended wrist?

The best thing about the XT layout is that the control key is in the correct location

I had one or two keys that where a bit of a pain to seat correctly, but once they are on its fine , i have had the odd key like that on a real F but it was a little more annoying than usual, but again only one or two keys.

I have noticed a problem however, sometimes the shift keys ( the left shift ...

I have only just seen this after my own few years AWOL , this is very sad news. Not much more i can say other than that, RIP friend.

Hi everyone, my F77 arrived today and i have to say i am very impressed at the quality and attention to detail. After all the years waiting i think that it was 100% worth it.

I was wondering however, has anyone had any ideas on doing a foot to match that of the originals? My 107 has a plastic bar ...

That is a nice one. And it has tempted me to get my beater of a F122 back our with its ANSI mod

Here's a great review on the ultra compact F77 keyboard from Level1Techs on YouTube. Very thorough and professional! I like how they explained everything clearly, introduced the xwhatsit configuration software, and showed how the stabilizer inserts work.

That's the thread i was thinking of could not remember where i saw someone do it.

I keep meaning to see if i can get a cheap big 122M case in good condition for my junker F122 the case is a bit manky on ...

The older type of M122 case could fit the F122 but not without modification.

The slimmer smaller case ( like the one unicomp still sells ) will not fit it .

The opening post is spam.

Perhaps I made a mistake when reporting it.
It’s a simple copy (with a spam link added) of a post made in April by someone else:

The shape of the case edges i like. Other than that, why would i buy this over a good old filco? Excluding unicorn piss LEDs everywhere.
