BTW, does anyone know where I can find pictures of an opened-up M15? Want to ensure I open it to clean it as safe as possible. It is not like the M2 where you open it up and everything inside explodes, is it?

That is correct. Once I bought an M15 numpad on eBay for $200. Very rarely you can find the M15 numpad on eBay or anywhere else.

Haven't been posting much here. But...

We do office moves at work often. When we do we put out dumpsters for us to recycle old hardware. I walked by one this morning, and I saw a numpad and thought "this looks interesting..." I picked it up and it looked like a M15 numpad, and I thought "no way ...

That blue XT keyboard is super cool! Nice find.

Very cool. I have an M15 and luckily it is in excellent shape. If you need to make your own wire, here is a video of how I made cherry stabilizer wires. Should be similar process if you want to make them for the M15. Additional information is in the text below the video.

Congratulations! You will be contacted tomorrow.

Oh wow! Thank you! Thank you!

Cool project! How are you sourcing your Topre switches? I have 2 old Sony video editing keyboards after I harvested the caps off of them. May be the switches in them get to live another life.

Visiting Knoxville, TN and just saw these.

If we want to change the case, we can do a lot of different things with the PCB because you won't be limited with the old design's shape and size. For example, you can move the thumb section out or change it to a different angle; add a row of function keys; or even add a 6-pack cluster and arrow ...

If you do want to change the layout that would require a new case design, I would be happy to make modification to my original ErgoDox case design.

Thanks for the link to the review. I didn't notice about the Esc key placement. My old habit of hitting Ctrl-Shift-Esc to bring up Windows Start menu will have to change. I also could do without the dedicated Cut/Copy/Paste/Undo keys. Ctrl-Z/X/C/V are plenty perfect.

Yes, finally, a modern split ergonomic keyboard!

I pre-ordered one from the next batch. As soon as I get mine, I will write a review and post it here. I hope it will be more March and less April... :)

I will be able to take pictures of the new Ergo Pro next to IBM M15, Cherry MX5000, Kinesis, and Microsoft Natural Keyboard. And of course ...

What kind of stems do the switches have? It is not Cherry keycaps compatible, is it? Thanks.

Wow! ErgoDox won again! Nice!

webwit, I want to take away your pain. Let me help you.

I think this is one of the ones from Bryan_Twizzle on GH maybe 1.5 years ago. He had a bunch for sale from his dad or a relative. I bought a couple of SSKs from him. He even threw in a silver square lab Model M when I bought the second one. They were all dirty but after a clean up they all look like ...

Sony BKE-9400A Editing Keyboard for BVE-9100 System

Topre switches according to desc. but not clear if letters on keyboard or just special editing keys?

The picture shows rectangle LED windows on some keys. That means the switch type is Alps. Only round LED windows is Topre switch type ...

Nice! They all look the same. Did you find a stack of old stock?

Speculator!

Haha, I am more of a hoarder than a speculator. I will of course never sell the silver wing nut!

I have a bunch I can sell for good money. I don't even like those CC caps, I never use them. But I am too lazy to sell them.

Nice header for smallfry, webwit.

Seriously, with this mod, I like Cherry stabs on my KMAC and The Cheat way more than Costar on my Filcos now.

My problem is I have one other KMAC1 without the mod. And to do the mod, I would have to desolder all the switches to get to the Cherry stabs

wow, this set looks very nice! Well done Lysol!

I have not seen the aluminum case myself and I didn't design it, so I don't know how it is made. It is all Mass Drop's. For the acrylic case, since acrylic is much weaker, you can't use a 1/16" thick acrylic plate as the mounting plate because it would flex too much. All acrylic cases I have seen so ...

guys, any feedback on the case designs? what is your feet solution?

I saved the thread that I started a couple of days ago, before it was split and before informative information was deleted. Where can I post it without being taken down by DMCA police?

I am a TYPE-ical American who frequent DT and GH.

I need to get MMB's lawyer contact info first, if MMB doesn't sue me first.

There are plenty of Americans on this board. You want to equate MMB to all of them? Don't lower yourself to MMB's level.
