Hi all! Owner of the pictured F50 here. It is indeed not a very common layout, which is surprising to me, and my case for it is entirely based in ergonomics. According to ergonomic principles, most full-size and TKL keyboards are actually designed (though not intentionally) to work best for left-ha...

One sold in Germany last week for 1200EUR. I think one or two others sold for a fair bit more a while ago, but the listings have disappeared.

Oh wow that’s a really good price. For this amount I’m definitely not selling mine.

Just to get an idea, for how much goes a Model F104 Unsaver right now?

Hello guys, I might consider selling a IBM Model F104 Unsaver in great condition, as I could need the money so that my parents doesn't need to sell their house. How much would you think is an Unsaver worth? Honestly I wouldn't really consider selling it, as it's still my dream keyboard, but well, ma...

I'm currently trying to sell or trade some of my stuff that i don't really need anymore. I don't smoke and don't have any pets. Because of recent things my plan for finishing university are delayed, so I need a few months longer. **All prices are excluding shipping.** [TIMESTAMPS] (https://imgur.com...

As far as today I didn't receive anything either, it would be really nice to get an update on the situation.

Hey guys,

I'm looking for a keyboard and live in the EU. Maybe someone can help me out.

Best regards,
David

Hey guys, I'm on the fence of trading my Unsaver for a Kishsaver, as the 60% form factor could benefit my current work flow a bit better. I'm not sure yet and want to see first if anyone would be interested in a trade, as I though I would never sell/trade my Unsaver ever, as it's the perfect board f...

Does anyone know what a fair price for a Beamspring 5251 and Beamspring Displaywriter (with rare wrist rest) is? I might want to sell both, although I'm not quite sure.

I'm definitely in for some lower weight springs! I would even say 50g would be fine for me.

Hey guys, as I'm kind of at my endgame now with the Unsaver, I plan to sell some keyboards that I don't need anymore. Maybe you can help me out how much they are worth. - Beamspring 5251 - IBM Model M SSK (very good condition) - IBM Model M Industrial (round label) - Realforce 87UB (45g) - IBM Model...

That looks awesome, would be really great if it works like intended!

I would also love to get one.

Before I head out for the evening for cocktails, I wanted to ask if anyone had ever seen this... I haven't. In the Cindy haul, there is a Lexmark labeled Bigfoot from the mid-90s. I am sure it is a refurb, but these boards would have been 10+ years old. Just surprised me My Model F Unsaver has a si...

I can confirm that a Magic Eraser works great. It's my method to clean very dirty keyboards.

I got a Texas Instruments keyboard where the keycaps looks nearly the same, it has the same home row gaps as the one in the picture, and that one had brown alps. So I think this one has browns as well. Very interesting keyboard, I'd love to see more pics! Well, like I mentioned I only have everythi...

I have updated the OPs with the updates for the metal plates and final deliverable for phase 1 (the drop-in). There is quite a bit there... so be ready for a long read.

Lol, true.

Wow, that looks beautiful! Great setup, I really like it.

Indeed, that's awesome!

Oh, my bad then. I though NMB Hi-Tek is always Space Invaders.

ANSI Space Invaders? That's awesome! Nothing for me though, someone in 'Murica needs to buy this.

I think the only option for buckling spring keys are dyesubs. Unicomp will make custom dyesub keycaps with their tools.

It seems like I need a very early Model M then if that's the case. That will be a problem though I think. And you know that M wires are thicker and don't fit in the narrower "mouths" of the F tabs? Oh, that's really a problem then. But maybe orihalcon can made some custom wires for the enter key to...

It seems like I need a very early Model M then if that's the case. That will be a problem though I think. If that really has all wire. I'm kind of sure that the ISO enter was stabilized only with the two plastic things on the right, so only one wire. At least on my F122 I had. That's why I wonder if...

I already posted a search thread over on the marketplace about this, but I think a lot of people don't click on that for the specific question. Does someone know if there's a enter/return key with wire stabilizer out there? I know there are left shift (Model F AT), backspace and right shift, which a...

Interesting you say you prefer the typing feel of the F. From what I've gathered most people prefer beam springs. I have to say I prefer Model F as well, when the contamination shield is still on the keyboard. But when taking it off, it's a another keyboard, it feels really different, and much bett...

I count 3.

I count at least 4.

That video was awesome! Seems like the best keyboard ever made.
