I’ve answered the IC. Can’t select wood case *and* alu case, though. Both of those are appealing, but I’m not interested in poly. Really want either a black anodised alu or a nice deep dark wood. I ...

this is really nice, I have been looking for a kb where to put my 5140 brown alps and this looks fantastic to be honest

Are those Marquardt Butterflies even worth it? (Worth it as in "grab it now while you still can")

Plenty of listings where I live, but I'm not sure whether or not I wanna start another project before finishing all the others...

the marquardt switches that I have feel fantastic, really crisp and ...

Still looking!!

bump!

PM'd and looking forward to my first space invaders kb

bump!

I am looking for non costar, 7u, Alps spacebars in good shape(2 or 3 would be ideal). Please contact me if you have any spares

Thanks for the shout-out vyquad! :D
Great work on your caps btw! I'm still amazed at how well those stems came out.

I plan on making a larger build log post in the Workshop about this topic in the next couple weeks. So, I suppose this is kind of a teaser trailer ;)

It's really weird to be honest haha. If you land of the edge of the key is awful, but if you hit the center is really nice and soft.
Also, price drop!!

bump with a price drop

Another price drop!!

Price drop!!

Had some time to kill so cleaned the board and took some more pics.

I am selling an old Nixdorf Computer keyboard. It has Nixdorf linear magnetic valve switches (very heavy), but being a really old connector I have no way of testing if it works.

Keycaps are doubleshoot crossmounted with some shine, also some of them can be opened to put custom labels into them. It ...

no idea what date code B means

I tried a 5 pin to ps2 to usb conversion but the keyboard only outputs rubbish (tried AT and XT). Maybe my ps2 to usb doesn't work for this particular board (works on other boards that I own) or maybe there is some component that is damaged inside the board (doesn't look like it upon visual ...

Bevore you sell it, can you scan the overlay or take a high resolution picture in a birds eye view and share it with everyone?

I'll try

Hi, I want to sell this Nixdorf branded G80-0942 with spanish layout, Vintage Black switches (with diodes so n-key rollover) and OG Cherry doubleshots made in 1989. The switches are in pretty good condition imho, I gave the case and keycaps a cleaning but haven't opened the switches.

It has an ...

Selling a SGI Granite 9500900 ANSI layout with Alps SKCM Dampened White with dyesub PBT caps. Case is a bit yellowed but keycaps are in great condition, only needs a throughout cleaning. Spacebar is a bit yellowed. It's in Spain but I can post it to most of EU.

Anything worth shelling out for in this picture? The green keys' colour (top right) is reminiscent of Cherry TA boards, but everything else about those board seems rather un-Cherry. Bottom right?

On the top left, the F-XT is obvious, with a cheap (?) F-AT clone beneath it (possibly Alps or MX ...

depleted, to avoid any delays, no layout customization or substitution is available. All the extra keys will ship not installed. Each key can be ordered separately except the HHKB/Mac keys, 1.75U keys, and Industrial SSK 12 key set.

I am still on time to add a Industrial SSK keycap set to my F77 ...

Got any Alps plates?

ALPS plates would be awesome

Take care and best wishes for a speedy recovery.
