It was a guess, as I said under the pic. Bigass is a mirrored L, and ISO kinda looks like a '7'. TBH the Chinese mechanical keyboard enthusiasts aren't very good at naming or identifying things.

I'm guessing L is bigass and 7 is ISO (because 7-shaped?)

Holy cow... this is going to be expensive but also once in a lifetime.
Darn. I'm not in HK ATM...are you looking to pitch in the early birds or the main buy?

So from the top level thread, orders will be open late Jan. Is there any difference between signing up now and ordering by then?

Yeah I wasn't sure how to wire up the Teensy as Soarer only gave a simple pic that didn't show much. I went digging on GH and I've taken a look at his full explanation, thanks.

Can you document how you'll get it working with modern systems? I'm interested in a Chinese one since it has Symbol Pinyin.

Well my Model F doesn't have any homing bumps. I got used to it, and I've bought blanks from Unicomp for both my F and my M, and I don't put the homing keys on either.

Just curious. How many people actually don't use homing bumps? Or is it just me? :twisted:

Hi. OP here. Actually not the first time I've seen a 122 on an Apple device. That's an HTC One X (ancient I know) android device, not an Apple. Heck! The 122Ms are big enough to contain a mobile phone! Actually I think it can fit about 12 iPhone 4s in double layered stacked? Or maybe about 3 10,000 ...

I don't know what to think about this one. Any thoughts? I'm not actively looking for an Industrial M, I just happened to come across it. Would you call it a bargain?

Yep, looks like it. OP from the reddit post identified it as a terminal Model M, guess I shouldn't jump to conclusions.

More info on Model M caps?

I saw this on /r/mk but I wasn't able to find more information on this. It seems like an M 122 terminal, the caps like the custom Japanese ones on Etsy. Found in an abandoned building

I shoot Canon. For macro, I've only had experience with the EF 100mm, which I don't have with me at the moment. It is fantastic with a single IS mode, and up to 30 cm min focus distance at F/2.8. The lens is sharp, little to no vignette, and no chromatic aberrations unless shooting into light source...

I couldn't find any silicone, and I'm not too confident of the durability of foam. I have options to choose between 2mm, 2.4mm and 3mm neoprene.

Cheers you guys for all these resources!! I've got a 122 coming in soon with a great chance that the foam will disintegrate by then. Here's hoping it doesn't, but even if it does, I have great confidence I won't mess it up. The units were a bit wonky (imperial :? , nothing difficult with a converter...
