Re: Alps Lubricant FOUND!

Yes I see your point. Each 30g for $19 plus mail sound more reasonable? First class mail should make it come to about $25 shipped. I think a favor was called in for this jar, so its not likely to be available again. Usually he would need to order a much larger quantity to get something made.

OK, I finished my replacement controller for the battleship. Hooray! The Blackpill-based setup works. There are some hurdles, but they can be overcome. If using GPIO A10 for the matrix, it needs an additional external pull-up resistor. This has already been planned into the schematics for the replac...

Re: Modeling an F key mechanism

Awesome project DMA! Regarding the plate, would it be possible to also have support for IBM AT and XT barrels? My only thinking there is using IBM barrels as future replacements. Nope! IBM barrels are 19x20.8mm, which makes them a bit hard to put them onto a 19.05x19.05mm grid. It is, however, poss...
