sth's best mate has a few (assume that's what gogusrl was talking about).

Direct link here.

Mmm… ANSI too. And €5 less for the one without the stickers! I can see why there's such man-boy love going on between this chap and sth!

Okay, let's see if my hardcore lowball offer takes his fancy.

I BOUGHT ONE KEYBOARD FROM HIM LEAVE ME ALONE

[Muirium]

2 boys 1 spacebar… slightly yellowed

[sth]

[Muirium]

Shit, I don't want to get that one on my AEK!

[sth]

to clarify - this one looks like it was stored in a cool dry place. no yellow!

A pity it’s a G83:

As yellow as a chain smoker's lungs, but could be good for harvesting switches. Thankfully every cap but one is PBT as well.

Ha ha very good sth. You know I don't love him as much as I love you. But I love all my neighbors from Holland. Especially those with nice Alps keyobards.

If you get one of those Datalux SpaceSaver's make sure it's got Cherry ML. MEI switches are meh. MEImeh.

nothing will replace my hhkb and aek60 got no time or room for curio boards anymore -- unless they come into the house, get parted out and used for projects

So the s stands for Sweeney, and the T stands for Todd. I wonder what the h is for…

That sounds like a particularly horrific slasher!

You've been reading too much Julle.

Did anybody here get this SWTPC terminal? (sold recently on eBay) It has vintage Cherry (M7?) switches.

Check out the colours - and look at that skull key! That could possibly be the oldest skull key ever made. (1977?)

What that's a beautiful board. I would've liked it myself.

[DanielT]

That skull key is so cool

[Muirium]

Great colours. That top row is a peek of what I'd like to do with any further rounds of SA caps.

Also note the spherical Helvetica. The G and the R are both quite different from the hokey typefaces you'll find on so many vintage sphericals, or indeed SP's modern remakes. It's not the Cherry font either, or what you'll find on Space Cadet Keyboard for that matter. The only other place I've seen Helvetica sphericals is on a Hewlett Packard terminal.

[snoopy]

that skull key is awesome! replica please!

here you go:

Each time you encounter Massdrop links, just add the following at the end of the URL:

Code: Select all

?mode=guest_open

Regarding the case, I do not like it, something is wrong, it looks too blocky

Edit:

[Muirium]

Is it really that square? Yuck!! And whoever allowed that last shot, surely 2 cases stacked, doesn't want this to be taken seriously either. That bulk!

(I know about the Massdrop guest link trick. I just want posters to do it instead of everyone else! Massdrop makes things needlessly difficult for us, so do bear that in mind when advertising for them.)
