Re: IBM 3278 powder coat color
Interested to see what we can all find. I'm debating whether or not to paint one of mine too. I want to match the original paint as much as possible. Need to paint the inside steel parts for sure, unless there is a way to recreate the heat treatment. I will probably just go with black on those piece...

I've sent you a PM back. That will get me most of the way there. Thanks, Orihalcon!

[WTB] IBM 5140 keys and 7u Alps spacebar
Looking for a few items:
-IBM 5140 "Ctrl" keycap (x1)
-7u Alps mount spacebar with Alps style stabilizers to match 5140 keycaps (x2)
-Original IBM "Pingmaster" cable (2+)
If you've converted your Pingmaster by replacing the original cable (with the DB9 connector), I'd like to buy it.

Re: Great/Interesting Finds
Just about shat myself thinking this might have been a beamspring from the looks of it. It was not, however. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F113633107814 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Beehive-International-DM5A-Computer-Terminal-Green-Monochrome-Monitor-/...

This little guy is pretty cool. Anyone know what it is? Looks like it has Cherry M8 switches. Neat.

Do you have a left arrow key with the green sub-legend? I need one for a Model M SSK.

Re: Alps Appreciation
Bought it off a user here as an “unknown blue alps board”, so didn’t play the “Ebay Chicony gamble” this time.

Re: Alps Appreciation

Blue alps Chicony. This and a Chicony logo on the cable were the only manufacturer designations i could find. No model sticker. Pretty happy about the NKRO.

I think earlier rounds (5 maybe) had a much lighter more translucent red color. Looks like you've received a mix of batches. :( I have a set of red alphas with the lighter shade with the exception of the scooped f and j keys. It's too much for my OCD so I don't really use them. If anyone has lighter...

I'm "missing" around 800 keys from my shipment. 7bit, can you please explain? Good lord. Are you sure they're from this round? None of the Round 7 (Algol) caps have even, to my knowledge, been ORDERED from SP yet. I wouldn't expect anything from Round 7 until 2020 (not kidding) Missing keys aren't ...
