Um? Search around for prior discussions of this topic here, even former postings by me. I know the creators personally. I know the switch manufacturer personally. This is a real thing. I've just ordered two. This is the most exciting keyboard development of the year. I agree - this is not some stup...

The beamspring switches will come in the future, it says. Seems like a very interesting board! :D Oh yeah, I guess so. I guess I'm still a bit dubious of a kickstarter project where you cant actually see or test or see someone review the product. Speaking of which, I'm sure you get this a lot but b...

Haha, yes, black keyboards are a pain to shoot xD . Usually requires a lot of messing around with lighting, sensitivity, exposure etc. To get down well.

Beautiful keyboard though! Very interesting project this!

Absolutely gorgeous. I've been tempted to restore my ZKB-2 at some point using just such an industrial grey colour scheme, and a black XT badge :D . Similarly I'm still tempted to do a repro run of XT Zenith badges. They're just so good-looking :D . I tried to get a badge-making company to make gol...

Wow, another amazing Model F find, congrats!

I never realised that these Unsavers had unpainted rainbow pans (on battleships, they're painted black).

Chyros

Interesting; no, I don't know what SD is, but the serial number is Focus-style, and F.E. also seems to be connected to them. It's difficult to place these exactly in the timeline with certainty, but considering it's kinda midway through changing from Focus-style to Northgate-style, I'd say it's a pr...

Finally I get to show you an SSK! IBM probably never thought that these would become so popular decades later xD . Hope you enjoy the video!

Edit: where are the "my Cherry keyboard ceased working properly" threads?
cherry are not worth the effort to fix, i mean if they were i doubt Wodan would keep finding them at the recycling center

Chyros

Looks like there are quite a lot of threads by people seeking help because their IBM keyboards do not work properly. No wonder when you simply follow the hype and buy high price but low quality stuff :mrgreen: I think I probably shouldn't say this here since it's the unpopular opinion thread. But I...

9apps What about the badge? Is it possible to remove the not-as-nice blue on grey badge and replace it with a custom one? I had a badge made for my F122 which I don't have yet, but I am really impressed with it. Not like I can upload a picture, because there's always an error... You just need to ge...

It works!!! I'm using an Arduino Pro Micro. When the keyboard starts I can hear a beep from the buzzer and all works good. The only thing is that I can't hear the buzzer every time I hit a key. Can somebody help me? Perhaps, only with other mods the beeper works There should be a volume knob under ...

same could be said for most hobbies, its called having fun He's right though, I must have in excess of 2000 hours invested into making all these videos xD . FML! Add that with the total watch time of all of your videos, I bet a huge portion of those are supposed to go to actual work. (I know this b...

The effort that we do in this hobby would've been put to a more productive and useful cause, rather than hoarding old computer peripherals that are either overpriced or dilapidated. same could be said for most hobbies, its called having fun He's right though, I must have in excess of 2000 hours inv...

Haha holy shit, an F77! xD How many of these are still known to be around now?

Modern atheism is a politicized sect of idiots who only repeat things when they don't really know even how to apply basic logic.

Modern atheism is different from old atheism? Oo

Today we look at one of the weirdest keyboards I've ever seen in my life xD .This thing is hysterical! xD Hope you enjoy the video, I sure did making it!

I wonder how much the Unicomp SSK will cost. Who knows how much the original SSKs used to cost compared to the standard Models M?

Less, actually. $156 versus $217, off the top of my head. I looked it up for a video about to release in a few weeks xD .

Well, I had a look, and yes, the plastic seems more flexible than I remembered it to be. It's also not yellowed in the slightest. The texture is also injection-moulded, not painted. And, as Jordan noted, it's from 1989, well into the era where they made the PVC Model M. Of course, none of this is pr...

Chyros

Well main reason is because the Model M is made of flexible PVC and when I compare the plastic of my AT they both feel and look exactly the same as the plastic on the Model M and also my AT is definitely not painted to give it its texture. I can take some pictures of the plastic on my At later toni...
