Bump. These boards are still looking for a new home. $220 for the pair or best offer.

Any leads on how to do this and how to connect the trackball? From what I understand the trackball is a standalone PS/2 device, so you can wire it seperately to a convertor, I think. I have a replacement 11800/11900 PCB from Taobao and it has a connector to convert the trackpad of the 11900. A 1180...

Guess I need to sell some stuff, I'd love to have how ever many boards ~$100 can buy and ship to me. Knowing what shipping costs maybe I'll need a bit more

Then no. Unless you are willing to do the technical work of reprograming a board and installing leds yourself, there is nothing that fits what you're looking for. Market Failure... Who actually needs RGB? Just turn on the lights (but not too bright) :lol: Might was well stick an LED light bar under...

That logo is so badass

In the US, but always looking for cheap(ish) Space Invaders.

Edit: Regarding a hall effect mod, I think the best candidate would certainly be an interesting, common and well built rubber dome board. Most rubber domes are pretty smooth (to the point I almost had an existential crisis after finding that the smoothest used Alps board I could find was much scrat...

I'm starting to think a foam and foil board might be a better candidate for a hall effect mod. Any suggestions?

Forgive me, I just woke up from a stupidly long nap a couple minutes ago and had an epiphany. Who said the hall effect should only be used for smooth linears. The sensors work in game controller shoulder buttons and probably anything else. What's a plentiful keyboard with great feel that lacks NKRO?...

I was going to try to shove a 1800 PCB into it. I haven't popped it open yet, there's a chance it's USB or something else standard (but with a milspec connector), but I still need to find my torx driver. Actually working aside I reccomend it, the case is all metal, but with a giant sticker (similar ...

Keyboard was part of some EADS stuff, that’s all I know.

I have a similar board but mine was put in a metal case for the Germany military.

As far as I can tell it's a pretty nice dome and slider board which closely matches the G80-1800 layout.

Does anyone have any other information about this board? I think it's really cool and am curious about the technology and concept behind it. I have another model of a Braille keyboard (with Cherry clear switches and doubleshot white on black keycaps). Not sure what kind of information you are looki...

I love that you actually made new PCBs for totally forgotten boards like the 3M Whisperwriter and the GEAC 8340 but no one ever made new PCBs for fullsize Alps boards like the SGI Granite. There are only like 15 GEACs out there. It's great.

Two boards and a cat. I really need to borrow a decent camera again, I've been trying my best to get my money's worth out of these photos, but I need to get a shot of my Siemens BTX at some point.

Unfortunately, the seller doesn't seem open to internationalisation.... As my old looooong English although.

Those are padprinted, the legends are the same as every K151L I've seen.

Realforce does ISO as well JIS layouts.

Custom keycaps for a CNC machine or some other piece of industrial equipment. I love the colors.

Unicomp could make something similar, but I'm not sure if they consistently do from printing. I think they do but I'm not sure.

One thing I'd love to try is to get a good-condition, fully electrical, front seat from a junked luxury vehicle and use that as either a work chair or as an alternative to buying a new recliner. The only disadvantage I can think of is that I really like adjustable arm rests. I'd love to find a seat...

Or, looking at it a different way, do things to make your life as comfortable as possible, whenever possible. :D This is definitely true. It's worth investing in the things you use all the time (chair, couch, bedding materials and computer peripherals). You'll be getting value out of them every day...

yeah I know but people don't buy ergodox anymore and Drop is not willing to produce a kit that sells just a dozen copies... times have changed since a few years ago I think part of the problem is that Drop stopped selling Ergodoxes :lol: Hopefully they start pushing split ergo again. The ortho kits...

I had a [board] with a cigarette burn and she turned out ok. You can't always find perfect (given your budget, geographic location or eccentric taste), but avoid [boards] that look like they've spent most of their life yellowing in the sun at the frontdesk of an motel before it abruptly closed and a...

Yeah, the smaller sticker might have been more economical for a low volume custom order. I guess it wouldn't be the first time Cherry tried to save money or reduce manufacturing cost in a strange way (I have boards with plates designed to mount stabs but used hat/stepped keys instead).

Cherry actually sold 1800s with a label that small? That's bizarre, that's the size of the stickers they put on keyboard assemblies. It's almost like they expected OEMs or companies to put their own sticker there.

Sorry I've been MIA for so long (I swear this was only a month ago... where is the time going )

I found the PCB, but I'm still looking for the daughter board and a couple of the necessary resistors. Sorry this is taking so long. I really need to get my junk more organized!

This is what he wrote. https://i.imgur.com/FRB4rq4.png I did basically the exactly same thing recently. Except it was the WD40 silicone based lube. I probably put it on a little tii much but at least the ones that had started making noise stopped. They definitely bind less but I can say much else, ...

Time to re-learn CAD and start making them myself. The keys will be just like all the other Micro Switch boards I've got. I think you're right on the money. The case isn't anything special, so if you have similar switches and can solve the keycap issue then I think you'll have a good chance. I real...

Because now this is just straight up unaffordable. Ignoring economics for a second: This keyboard should not be worth this price , but I can say the same for many that are selling for thousands. This feels like people complaining about overpriced Japanese shitboxes from the 80s and 90s but ignoring...

An xwhatsit will work with basically any capacitive PCB matrix you create as long as it isn't larger than 16x8. I think the easiest way for someone who doesn't have the ability to make their own controllers would be to buy two xwhatsits, and attach one to the right PCB and one to the left PCB you h...

You could 3D print a plastic barrel plates. That'd be the easiest way to get a curve. No idea how capactive buckling spring PCBs work, but there are replacement F controllers which replace all the "scanning" done by the original PCB, so I believe it's fairly understood. Easiest way would be a flat P...
