Also looks like this dell 103 is using doubleshots made by alps, maybe there is also ansi version with them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULd95hM_JZQ

I do recommend non-selective reading.
wobbled’s first post about that price was fairly neutral:
he then posted twice in a similar manner, even saying, when the possibility of a mistake was mentioned: " I do hope so.. he sold me industrial ssk's and f107s for very fair prices in the past ".
Meanwhile

Tried to think of a sensible, lore-correct name for my character at the time. Failed, so I chose a stupid one instead. Of course that's what people started calling me, so 14 years later, there it still is.

Trying to avoid desoldering until it's the only action left available. I can try continuity testing each affected switch. I assume this can be done while they are still soldered in? Are there any voltage limits I need to worry about?
Testing the switch by bridging the contacts with tweezers on the PCB

From the broken part on the spacebar you can see a bit of the stab there. Looks like a long wire.
I personally think this might be foam and foil. Im pretty interested to see what it is as well

please refer to the pics below and hope this help

Bump

PM.

Nice space invaders one, welcome to the SI 60% gang!

Thanks for the advice!
I've heard the same about these switches so definitely not opening them up. I never lubed any keyboard but if its possible to do it on this without dismantling the switches I can definitely try, otherwise I'll just clean the switches as much as i can with an airduster and paintbrush

I mean, yeah, I guess. PM me with some offers. I like XT and AT layouts, and clicky alps. It's honestly not that cool though. I tried to see if I could use that right shift to replace the backspace key on my F XT, but it doesn't work.

Status update? Still de-soldering? :)

Sick dude. I tell ya, those wp keebs are the best looking.

Some of those old Toshiba laptops have really nice keycaps awesome find!

Huh?
You're right: the pod's chair has DataHands on the armrests.
What a coincidence: I was just reading about the DataHand on Xah Lee's website today.

I wasn't impressed with the key feel when I first got it. I had a feeling something was wrong with the switches. They were barely tactile and scratchy. I know buckling springs have a wear-in period, but I've typed on pristine and NOS Models F before. They're way better than what I experienced when

Hi there,
I recently acquired this NTC 5060 keyboard. Don't think it is rare, as a quick search tells me that it has pops up here and there in DT. However there has not been a proper thread about it so i thought why not ey?
Here is the keyboard exactly when I got it
Open it up to clean it as much

Thanks for the info. No one else can add anything to this? Has someone tried to build one maybe?
