For my AT I used some foam off ebay . A little pricey compared to just buying foam, but I didn't have to use any mental capacity figuring out which foam to buy or spend time cutting holes, which was nice. No chattering whatsoever. I'll look into those premade foams. Thx! I'll say one thing, though:...

Very elegant solution! I wouldn't have thought of that. IMO the best method yet, as some people seem to have damaged the wire while lightening it. I'll definitely try this on my F. While we're at it: Does somebody know from experience what replacement foam works best in an AT or XT? There are countl...

Quite an interesting board. And very good documentation on your end!

Maybe snap the PCB in half? That might be enough for the seller, and you can salvage the switches and caps.

Just bought this one for the fun of it, it cost 10€ and looked pretty interesting. The model no. is "YKB-201" By Ya Hsin Industrial from Taiwan. Upon googling the FCC-ID the website tells me that it is from '93, I couldn't find any information other than that. Anyone know what it is? Should arrive ...

Any M stabilisers to sell?

I have 2 plastic stab inserts, if that's what you're looking for.

Apple DinoMAC Keyboard with Alps.tw Type1 switches and wonderfully different keycaps

bump

What is the point of these? I don't understand.

Ja, das mit den generellen Begriffen ist echt nützlich. Ich scrolle da immer auf "Tastatur" --> Unmengen an trash, und das ganze macht einen irgendwann echt fertig.

Jo Leute, die gängigen Taktiken kennt man ja, auf eBay (& Kleinanzeigen) o.Ä. Suchen speichern und die Seite regelmäßig aktualisieren :D Ich bin auch relativ aktiv was das angeht, und hab einige Male auch Glück gehabt und etwas gutes ergattert. Aber: Ich habe in einem Jahr bzw. etwas weniger noch NI...

Hi Guys, I'm looking to trade my set of german Alps SKCC Keycaps from an M0110a for a set of the same keycaps, just the Mitsumi variant of them. Hit me up if you are interested.

Thanks!

Edit: added items & info

Hi all! I'm looking for an Apple IIGS Board or an AEK with orange Alps, preferably in QWERTZ. Condition of the switches doesn't really matter! ALTERNATIVELY looking for a set of QWERTZ iigs keycaps and a case. I'd also be interested in replacement keycaps in case anyone has got some, I need a "Strg"...

Hello, I'm looking for an Apple M0110, preferably converted.
I can offer numerous clicky SI boards in ISO-DE,-DK,-NO, and -IT and DEC-Style linear ones with swedish, spanish and danish layouts. And of course money!

Maybe we can work something out.

I couldn't imagine how crippled my left hand would be after an hour on my M122.

For the record: After a day or two your fingers get used to the weight pretty well

@Redmaus had a Model F XT NIB (maybe multiple?) for sale for a long time, for a very fair price. You could ask if he maybe has one?

I find it hard to believe any judge is going to take the case seriously after he finds out it's about a keyboard converter....

To finish out the collection of evidence, two more things need to happen. 2. Soarer's full name and last known address need to go public. This is not doxxing I can't believe it, this is ridiculous. Imagine the poor guy did die unexpectedly or intentionally left the community and you just go ahead a...

Same here. The curls always get stuck between my desk and the wall and then I have to pull the cable back out. Also, "custom coiled cables" people buy only to place them on their desks in a way that doesn't even make use of it are stupid IMO.

This will go down in DT history i'm sure! I also live in bavaria, I could transport a few hundred with my dad's van.

You said metal and plastic - which part is metal?

The stabilizer parts themselves are all plastic, I just thought that maybe with a lot of keypresses some lube could get onto the plate

Alps themselves lubed these from the factory, something thin and light from the looks of it. I don't have any recommendations for lube type. Another option is getting a very light (thing 5 grams) spring to go around the rod. This is how brother typewriters handle their rod stabilizers and I feel it...

The rod stabilizer on my left shift key is a bit sluggish when I press it on the left edge, I was thinking, wouldn't it be possible to lube the rod/inside of the keycap with grease or something? I wasn't able to find anything about lubing rod stabilizers on the internet, maybe one of you has tried i...

I’ve an M0110. Haven’t done a thing with it. But it’s iconic, and I like it, so I’d have to really rip you off.

Keep and enjoy it then It really is iconic
