New post [Reviews] Hyper 7 keyboard review (Kailh BOX Burnt Orange)

It feels like we're dancing around the edge of a great model:
Some of the new microcontrollers mount as a USB storage device, for "drag and drop to program". What if a keyboard controller also showed up as a 50kb flash drive, and you just wrote a file with the desired keymap to it?

New post [Keyboards] Alps Appreciation

Thanks, I will try the floss mod. I have only heard about using it with buckling springs, never with Alps, but it makes sense that it would work.

New post [Want to buy] [WTB][EU-ES] BTC 5100 / 5100C

https://imgur.com/a/dXaNAa2
Hi! I just bought this BTC 5100c and as you can see 4, 5 and f10 keycaps arent the original ones.
I will like to buy the BTC 5100 or 5100c Black and grey keycap set to complete it or the full keyboard if the price its ok.
Thank you!

New post [Keyboards] Classic Unicomp Speaker Hole?

Damn, I didn't even notice the cable being in a different location. Almost need to open the thing up and look at the internals at this point, seeing the cable is in a completely different spot. Interesting.

New post [Keyboards] Are all PBT keycaps shine-resistant

I've still a couple of AEK IIs somewhere. One much more used than the other which is more or less still NIB. I'll scrutinise their caps in detail sometime.
Unlike yellowing, which can mash a whole board, wear accumulates differently on every key. You can usually spot several stages of its progress on

New post [Mice & other input devices] Matias makes a mouse

All the way back in 1997, I got my first laptop. An Acer Extensa 355, I think, it was a total piece of shit, as it turned out! Immediately, I loathed the trackpad, which was beyond farcically small, even by the standards of the day. So I bought a clip on Logitech trackball.

New post [Keyboards] Drill bit size for screw-modding a Model M keyboard?

Bolt mod process recommendations:
I bolt modded a number of IBM Model M keyboards many years ago (~2014), having learned what I've noted below from a fellow community member:
I used an inexpensive drill press found on Amazon to drill through the plastic rivets, a 0.07" drill bit, and 2/56 x 5/16 Stainless

New post [Gallery] IBM SSK club!

So pretty! Yeah the SSKs seem to fare poorly with their rivets. My SSK needs a bolt mod despite still being new/sealed in box when I found it (hooray for poorly named eBay listings flying under the radar so while not cheap I got a great deal on it considering it was NOS). Biggest mistake was opening
