Re: Old keyboard replacement rubber domes

Got a bunch of pads coming so the rescue mission continues. A pity I can't seem to find the buckling rubber domes anywhere though. Swapping those out for new would be nice if I'm tearing these down anyway, but oh well, probably not absolutely necessary.

Re: Comfort Keyboard? More like passing interest turned obssession!

Sure, for a casual gaming keyboard I'd be fine with a 70% but for text work, heeeelll no. :) But I do have a soft spot for weird ergonomic ones.

Re: Comfort Keyboard? More like passing interest turned obssession!

This is the kind of keyboard that would be right up my alley, been a fan of weird tenting solutions a while and use a weird tenter every day. And my hands are the happier for it. There's not a lot out there that's sufficiently extreme nowadays, and if you want to get something that's very tenting/ad...

Re: Suggestions needed for cleaning an old keyboard

If it's painted plastic, you can go from cleaning mode to actually restoring these. As in, dismantle the keyboard and remove the cover, wetsand it down and then spray paint it. Might be tricky to save the logo sticker but should be doable. If it's not painted, at least in theory you should be able t...

Re: Old keyboard replacement rubber domes

It is often not the rubber sleeve that wear out but the foam pads inside the keyboard that deteriorate with age. I do have a bag of rubber sleeves that I have scavenged from another old Key Tronic keyboard, but the foam pads are long gone. If the foam is what's broken, then the keyboard should feel...

Re: Old keyboard replacement rubber domes

Yeah, I'm really new to all of this, I mean I have a passing familiarity of mechanical keyboard switches and the like but I'm a total novice when it comes to actually opening a keyboard up. I've been going through the wiki and googling my heinie off and I'm beginning to suspect that these keyboards ...

Old keyboard replacement rubber domes

I realize that starting my first ever post here with a dome keyboard may forever cause me shame and suffering, but the problem is I have a pair of keyboards I've been using so long they feel more like extensions of me than keyboards. This means I'm willing to go to some lengths to keep them going. I...
