I was looking for over two years and have only seen two auctions on ebay for an IBM 1392366 keyboard. One in Germany and one in the US. Both happened within a week and I won both: If I remember correctly I paid $160 in the US and € 80 in Germany. Given the rarity of these you could almost call them ...

So, who are you? I expect spectacular silence! When the lights go out and there is darkness and into the first moment of silence I am the one to scream out loud. When the lights come back I just look puzzled like everyone else wondering who just screamed :-) I am an atheist with a discordian tatoo....

        cube([206.0,190,41.5]);
        translate([10, 10 -1]) cube([186.0,170,42.5 - 13]);
    }
    translate([-1, 26, -1]) cube([45, 136, 42.5 - 8.5]);

I can't wait to take a look at the files

That's the reason I love deskthority ... There always a rason to open a two years old topic to start a Topre-cherry war :D I am working as a software developer and I have used Model Ms exclusively for over 20 years. I am very impressed with the Reafforce 87U 55g. The cost of the Topre is easily exp...

That is a great idea. 1391337 is the best part number for the FSSK.

How the SSK 1391337 was created For the picture(s) with the square silver logo I actually took two pictures: one with an SSK, and another one with a Model M silver logo keyboard (at the exact same position). Then I cut the silver logo out of the 1390131, resized it to 60% and put it on the SSK. Tra...
