Keycaps from a TA typewriter

Pretty nice looking low profile keycaps. The switches are Cherry M9 switches, which are odd but neat; they can alternate between linear and tactile by reversing the stems.

Fantastic!



Very nice find. And the good old MX cap mount is a passport through the decades, all right!

Is that something that can be demonstrated in photographs? I've yet to get my hands on an M9, and I was really curious after I read that there were tactile versions of (either M8 or M9 or both, I forget).

Daniel, it's somewhat possible. I'm working on pictures of that right now. unfortunately the plastic on the switch casing is very brittle and is cracking so it's very slow going and frustrating. i'll try to get it up in the next day or two.
