IBM never made the special key caps needed for that 104 layout (because 104 was a Microsoft kludge), so you'll only find 101 keycaps that won't fit between Ctrl and Alt. Unicomp also retired this returning to regular sized Ctrl and Alt keycaps with a shorter spacebar and a very bizarre layout:Parjánya wrote: ↑You are a wizard, sir. Now I want two of this :'(.

Did unicomp not switch back to IBM sized spacebar and Ctl and Alt with 1x1 meta keys ? I know they did on there classic style case but not sure on this type.khirin wrote: ↑Yes, I should mention that the keycaps replacement should be ok, except for the main bottom row, where Ctrl, ALT, space, etc. are not the same size as IBM Model M 101. Quality-wise, these 1x1 Unicomp keycaps are still the same two-pieced PBT, just with a different color, and probably made from their worn-out machine.
I think you are right. Mine looks different from the current Unicomp classic and ultra classic 104 keyboards on their website.andrewjoy wrote: ↑

They've for sure had to create new molds for their shorter spacebars and unique modifiers, but since the modifiers are now discontinued it's anyone's guess.khirin wrote: ↑Yes, I should mention that the keycaps replacement should be ok, except for the main bottom row, where Ctrl, ALT, space, etc. are not the same size as IBM Model M 101.

They're still using up their shorter spacebar in the existing 104 layout (in conjunction with a terminal left shift to fill the gap on the right side of the spacebar in which would otherwise be a 103). I don't know if this is to use up the last of their short spacebar stock in which they'll ultimately switch to 103... or if they're still making that spacebar if not the modifiers.andrewjoy wrote: ↑Did unicomp not switch back to IBM sized spacebar and Ctl and Alt with 1x1 meta keys ?

I was a long time lurker and have been absorbing information here. I'll try to explain, so this will be useful for others as well.t!ng wrote: ↑Nice project, I have a unicomp laying around. Maybe you could tell us how you did it precisely, sir?
