I have the F122 [AT] and will be disassembling it today. Case is a bit cracked so do not panic about its donor status. Its one of the French F122s that were recently on eBay from Quebec. I also have the parts from the XT too. From looking at the PMs it shouldn't be a problem for everyone to get what...

For an F122, Clamps to keep the plates together and a large sliding C-clamp to force long ends of the plates together and slide everything into the clips. Fohat.digs guide has some good pictures. It is not easy. That's the method I used. (cheap) side clamps to keep the plates together and long clam...

Ordered F XT for parts so everyone check what they need. Should be a week or so before it gets to my spot in the states from the west coast. I'll be very quick with the turnaround. I'll throw in free shipping too so your price will be zero except if customs fees are imposed on the parts by your coun...

Capacitive buckling springs require the carbon infused flippies, which are different from the ones used in Ms. The only known source, unfortunately, is parts from other boards, whether through a board that is too far gone (yet to see one of those..) or one where there's a spare from ANSIfication, p...

I think I use the 30A (or 40A). I bought both sheets at the time but cannot remember which I used.

Don't know about the washers. How would you handle the notch? Just uses bigger ones?

Though in the states I got my silicone sheet for my F AT from http://www.grainger.com/ an industrial supply company. Amazon also has some too. Be careful to pick the durometer you want.
