F62+F77 orders now open! New Kishsaver+Industrial Model F Keyboards

[DrivenKeys]

Do these slots located at each side of the keyboard have an intended purpose? They look like a space reserved for a very specific slide switch, but I'm not sure which one would fit there.

My first guess was that they could possibly accomodate a flat cable, perhaps for some custom terminal configurations.

DrivenKeys I have spare boxes available (please email me if interested) but no spare inner foams. If anyone needs the foam please contact me closer to year end as part of the final round when I will make some extras.

Linus Tech Tips question for everyone:

I've gotten a few recommendations to find someone who was in touch with the team over at Linus Tech Tips?  Hopefully they might want to maybe make a new Model F video like their Model M reborn video.  

If anyone can help with this please do let me know over PM.

Or maybe one of you tweeting at LTT might do the trick! If I remember correctly, Notch is a fan of the Model M's and found out about the project through a DT forum member's tweet!

I wonder if they still have the set props and digital effects setup from that segment. That video has 4.3M+ views, and was itself made because of an offhand comment about the Model M catching so much attention.

If Linus still has his tan suit, he should totally do it.

Someone sent me an ingenious layout modification with the HHKB style split right shift - did not think this was possible! Using the full 2.75U right shift key on the HHKB style split right shift board, with one key to the right of the shift key. Posting their photos with their permission:

Damn, just got my B stock ANSI+HHKB.



If this is B stock, I can't wait to get my hands on A stock. Fantastic.

Looks great — what’s up with that neat stubby cable though?

[Muirium]

Maybe it’s on a reel! Extends when you pull it…

Nah. Looks like a USB socket to me. Essentially giving the Kishy a detachable cable.
