Re: Beam Spring 104+SSK Reproduction Project! First Batch In Stock, Shipping early next year after New Model F Project

Ellipse, I already noted this in my B122 order, but I would love to see the dot matrix receipts included with beam spring orders as you did with the Model F. I thought it was a really cool touch. And if you're taking votes I like the LED overlay option #1. I only included one overlay in my order but...

Re: Beam Spring 104+SSK Reproduction Project! First Batch In Stock, Shipping early next year after New Model F Project

For the B122 folks, any recommendations on extra keys to consider including? It won't be a perfect match but I was thinking of throwing in 22 black keys with transparent relegendable tops. Whether or not relegendable keys are included with a B122 purchase, I would love it if you could offer some bl...

Ellipse,
Thanks for the quick reply. I have the solenoid you sell on my F77 and I love the sound and loudness - definitely wouldn't want a smaller solenoid. I am hoping to get in on round 2, just haven't payed yet.

Re: Beam Spring 104+SSK Reproduction Project! First Batch In Stock, Shipping early next year after New Model F Project

Ellipse, If I want to order a solenoid with a beam spring do I get the same $30 "solenoid driver" (along with the solenoid, of course) that I order with a new Model F? I think this is what i read but I just wanted wanted to double-check as the solenoid page doesn't list the details regarding the new...

Re: F62+F77 orders now open! New Kishsaver+Industrial Model F Keyboards

I received my F77 early in September. I got about half the keycaps installed before I realized the switchplate (if that is the correct term), the plate that is secured to the case with the 4 screws, is off center so that the right-most column of keys (i.e. return, backspace; right-most side of numbe...

Re: What's your piece of keyboard unobanium?

I would really like to find a Model M for a few bucks at a rummage sale . . . I know a Model M isn't a rare board, but all my hobby money has been directed towards purchasing an F77 from Ellipse and I just can't justify spending Ebay prices on a Model M - but it sure would be fun to compare both the...

Re: Alps Appreciation

Really great pictures Morbid; thanks for sharing your work.

Do you get the brass plates custom made or is this something you do?

What size spacebar fits with the new Beam Spring? 6.0u? 6.25u?
So excited for this project and to see what kind of cases we can build around it in the future.
I've signed up; your work is amazing Ellipse.

Re: F62+F77 orders now open! New Kishsaver+Industrial Model F Keyboards

Hi Ellipse, I had a question about changing the layout of my F77. I ordered an ANSI layout F77 this year but would like to change it to an ISO layout when I eventually receive my keyboard. I understand that I need lock ring pliers along with the ISO keycap and stabilizer. Beyond then having to chang...
