price drop! 180$ including shipping

Thanks! Such a beautiful thing, especially the caps.. the thickness of it..

Great condition. But not converted. Switches are FLS 2nd gen. Feels new.
210$, including shipping from korea

I concur […] seems like they made a lot of cases for shit teams.

I too was looking forward to it because of those PBT caps they promised... wonder how that went.

Hi! I would like to buy some SMK Cherry mount White switches, or a board including those.

My region is South Korea, but I really don't matter shipping and all if I could get my hands on them.

Feel free to PM and please do!

I'd also like to put together a sandblaster station. That'd help on so many levels of keyboarding: bad metal cases, bad mounting plates, de-shiny keys ...


You can use a sandblaster to deshine keys? This is the first I'm hearing of this. Wouldn't that wear down the legends?


Yes they would ...

Holy shit, this looks amazing! How much would you like for this vaguely?

PMed about Epson as well!

Alright, now this is amazing! Both performance and value-wise

I think there isn't more to do here :D
I bought this off from CL4P-TP.
Lube the stabilizers and switches with Superlube grease and oil, switched out the F,J and numpad 5 keycaps for bumped ones for touch typing. And it's now perfect to use!

I can't record the sound ...

Yeah... I rarely get to home... few weeks of vacation for entire year

Most of my keyboards are at the barrack. Nothing much to show off sadly.

Well, haha, I’m sure we’re helping him a lot. Sarcasm aside, Findecanor has identified one of the key tenants of this hobby - everything is subjective. The only opinion that matters is your own.


Yup :D when it come to keyfeels it all very subjective indeed!
For instance, I prefer Matias clicks ...

Matias's clicky switch holds up well, much better than almost every Cherry MX clones.
For MX compatibles, I'd say Box Navies.

But yes, I do find myself coming back to vintage stuffs

I've just done my first buy from Cindy's.. with description;

Untested but complete.

ADDS ASCII Terminal Keyboard

Linear NMB Hitek switches

Clean and in good condition

Untested.


...which literally had a piece of seaweed inside and rusted out.
I really don't mind much dust and stains. But I'd ...

Sold

Feel free to offer please! Since I'm very short on cash..

Boxed stock of 100 limited edition Filco Stealth!

The box is worn out but it still resembles one XD ...

Mine's 1392595! Think I payed about 26 in USD.. model Ms are quite expensive in Korea

Nice, this is the latest produced 1392595 I've seen! $26 USD is a good price these days - I paid £50 GBP (~$64 USD) for mine. How much does a typical Model M cost in Korea?


Blue badge starts at 80 ish USD ...

Nice! What part number is this and how much did you pay?

I believe this is an IBM 3151 ASCII Display Station Keyboard. I have a P/N 1392595 (grey oval, 1987), with the same awesome numeric keypad legends that I ended up complimenting them with a Unicomp APL keycap set.


Mine's 1392595! Think I ...

They were made in UK, 1997. Not fancy but came with these sick looking numpad! Since it's a terminal model M.

I'm cleaning the caps with hypersonic cleaner.
20200912_194351_854.jpg
It's in a solid state overall, zero rust and very clean barrels!
20200912_213539_132.jpg ...

Can we buy those slick black keycaps for buckling springs?

That is a epic find indeed O: Welcome and good luck!

Got this on ebay, thought it would be an another UltraNav switch but I found completely different one. What do you think it is?
