Not to worry though, the new beamer's gonna have some GOOD size options .

The latest pics I saw, the thing looks hideous...

I've set up the event, time to send in your PMs

viewtopic.php?f=10&t=27778

Announcing the Deskthority Secret Santa 2022 Rules are as follows 1. PM me your Real Name (post needs a real name to deliver) and address and I'll add you on the list. Please use a format of "Secret Santa 2022 Username" for the message title. 2. DEADLINE to send me your address is 15 Dec 2022. I'll ...

I agree, that's why I've been on the lookout for an F107 for the past 3 years.

The F107 should certainly have been made as part the repro project.

Damn I wish I had a decent cap set to go with the board now. I know a carpenter that can probably make a desk for the module to sit in and make it whole again, but the oddball selectrics will just bug me now. Don't want to derail the topic further but does anyone know of anyway to adapt MX mount ke...

That's not a 5251. Either a 3278 or 3276.

That is the gifting etiquette I was talking about...

Could you guys maybe give examples of what would have been a fairly standard gift back in the day ?

Have a look at the threads from 2017 and 18. I've seen NIB model Ms, NIB pingmasters, etc...

... “a popularly desirable keyboard and some miscellaneous other smaller goodies" ....

That is the gifting etiquette I was talking about...

Seeing as I won’t be shipping or receiving anything myself, I can handle it if everyone’s up for that. ;) I suggest a pseudorandom system where people can define which geography they’re happy sending their parcel to. We’ll need to play tight with customs declarations (outside of the EU) as well. I ...

Who wants to take the initiative to set this up/Match names, etc.?

Ideally it should be someone who's been on DT for a while. Compgeke, who's a DT admin, used to run this in the past ? Anyone messaged him yet ?

Snoopy's box is already on its way.

Others - please claim your stuff...

Okay, a morning of counting… Unicomp Box.pdf That’s how granular this stuff gets! Right now, it’s all together in the biggest box I can find. Weighs over 8 kilos. I think my own order is still among it all, though, as I’ve searched my own caps stash and can’t find Unicomp stuff. So I’ll need to fig...

Stuff has arrived in Germany. I am making an inventory of items received. Please message me to claim your stuff....

Ah I see, I admit I am a bit reluctant to paint my case and that's why I was hoping if there were shell alternatives out there, that and paint chips anyway. I might actually just brush up on my CAD and design an an entirely new STL for a replacement shell. Now that I think about it...if I could pul...

As the heading suggests, looking for an IBM F 107 keys keyboard. EU only and at a price that doesn't break the bank...

Are these replacements or are they somehow different from the original F?

These are to convert a model M into F, by using this capacitive PCB and then putting in model F style slippers and springs....

So: who to? Snoopy or kmnov2017? Can you guys discuss it and come to an agreement?

To me. The post office is across the street from me, I can ship out items easily...

I'm already signed up. Would be a blast to see some of you there

Ofc! I mean we’ll have to infiltrate them with vintage boards

we'd love to see your original F77!

So round 4 is not the final round ?

You might be able to lookup the transaction history on paypal - probably not the best approach - but workable. Bonus is you'll get their emails that way as well - you dont have to worry about their presence on DT anymore.

For cheap delivery options from UK to EU, lookup DPD.

I can also offer to help if you need an address in Germany? I am assuming only the goods were paid for and that shipping to individual addresses still need to be paid for -Is this correct? The way we could work this out is first we make an inventory of items and then have people claim what's their’s...

Looking for a few broken/incomplete model Ms for parts. Broken cases, assembly only, missing keys/springs are all welcome.

Ideally Germany only to save on shipping costs, but open to all offers.

That's a micro switch ST (wiki/Micro_Switch_ST_Series)variant and not buckling spring.

No problems from my end if Ellipse says it's OK. Obviously the current factory has much more flexibility as witnessed by the additions of Czech and Thai sets over the last 24 hours. However, the Icon set files (and all the other extra keys) have already been sent to be printed and Ellipse and I hav...

Would it be possible to sneak in a 1u control symbol ("^") and a 1u Mac command symbol ("⌘")? I would love to have a couple of each in pebble. No problems from my end if Ellipse says it's OK.
