Mechanical Sun Type 5 Keyboard
« on: Wed, 20 January 2016, 19:25:15 »
Just wanted to share with you all my first rare keyboard find!

For the uninitiated, the Sun Type 5 is a rubber dome keyboard made for Sun's computers. For more info, please read the following:
https://deskthority.net/wiki/Sun_Type_5

I thought they were all rubber dome until I came across the following post:
https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=56413.0

I thought it was pretty cool and wondered if I could find another one. It is not made by Sun, but by a company called Integrix based on the FCC ID.

Just my luck, I found one in ANSI!! woohoo. It's basically the same keyboard except that its in ANSI and only has keycaps in English. Everything else is the same.

I have yet to actually try it out to see if it works, but it looks absolutely in perfect condition.

Here are some pictures!

Oh wow, it's completely different! It doesn't even LOOK like the Sun 5 we all know Oo . Even the keycaps and layout are incomparable.

Does it have the Sun plug and protocol?

Futura looks pretty good, even as pad printed ABS(?). I still like my version better though. :)

Yes it does! I just haven't been able to test it yet. Considering making my own Sun->USB converter, but it's soo big. I'm a 60% up to TKL guy, so putting something like this at work is not gonna be comfortable.

That's really pretty, and I had done some research on this a day or so ago, and had no idea this type of board  came in a cherry black.  So nice.

I think it's gonna stay in my collection unless someone really really really wants it and gives me a price I can't refuse LOL.

I'm gonna try and find some SA keycaps and put them on. I bet it would look fantastic on this.

Yah just have to find a full SA set that supports some of the oddly shaped keys, like the "Help" and "Esc" keys. I suppose I should put it in my WTB thread.

Waaaay back before I ever cared about such things, literally almost 20 years ago when I first started working at Sun, there was a buyout of the company I was working at in Oregon (Cray) and a ton of Sun stuff flowing through the doors. It got to be so much, that a couple years later we were literally tossing those in the garbage or in people's trunks for those that wanted to try their hand with one at home. They were GREAT keyboards!!

Awesome find :D

Necro time.

I found a board like this a while back and put Round 6 caps on it. It's one of my favorites.

I wish this board were easier to find, it's one of my favorites! It doesn't quite work as is. One day I need to open it up, install up to date stabilizers, replace the controller, and get it going.

For Round 2 of my Hall effect keyboard offering, I'm going to offer a 120-key board with a very Sun like layout - and Sun modifier keys if I can help it.

That looks gorgeous. I had been meaning to put nantucket selectric on mine but was concerned about the non standard sizes and profile difference. Looks like it's only with the control and escape keys on the top left.

Yeah I really love the 120-key layout! I was so excited to find my board in a recycling heap. ohaimark was there - he's good luck.

I really think Sun was onto something with this one. The extra 12 keys are great for customization, they provide a nice place to put artisans, and they're really awesome if you grew up with an IBM PC XT board and want to use your left pinky for function keys. They provide a natural home for all of the beautiful extra modifiers of the Space Cadet layout. Sure, an IBM 122-key battleship gives you a second function row. But this gives you a regular ANSI layout, media keys, and extras. Heck, even Razer copied this design with the Blackwidow. I wonder why no one else offers it anymore?

The last thing in the world I want to do is to hijack this thread and turn it into an advertisement - coverage of my boards is in plenty of other places. But, because I love this layout so much, I wanted to share that Round 2 of the Hall boards will have a 120-key offering. Here's a sneak peek!

173096-0

Please be warned: these are not the final production caps. Also, there will be a slight layout change before production: increasing the spacing between regions to 0.5u (9.5mm) to better honor the Sun Type 5 and its derivatives. I'll talk more about it in a separate thread once I clean up the photos.

So, yes, if you happen to find one of these lovely Sun Integrix boards, please post here! I'm going to do a full teardown on mine one day when I open it up for new stabilizers and a new controller. I've already retr0brighted it. Be warned: it has weird stabilizers, a 1.25u Esc, and the included key caps are nothing special. But it is such a great platform for more interesting hacking.

No problem at all XMIT, wishing you the best with the new set of keyboards! Hopefully it will be in my price range this next time around!

That makes 3 of us with these boards =). I've been too weary about ruining this keyboard by doing any kind of controller modification so I'll be paying attention to your upcoming thread!

Good that you are using 1.25 modifiers in the bottom row.

I have worked on Sun workstations with Sun keyboards and in European ISO layouts, the right Alt key needs to be used a lot. The Sun keyboards having the right Alt key farther to the right than other keyboards is quite annoying. You can get used to contorting your right hand... but when it is under the . (period) key, it is so much easier to press with the right thumb.

I wish mine was mechanical, but it's one of those awful rubber dome things.

I do like the shape of the keycaps though - nice and pointy :)
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

The dome with slider model is extremely good-looking, in all fairness. It's one of the most elegant boards I've ever seen. But this mech one with the keycaps is almost an homage.

The real Type 5 has PBT dye subs that fit over a slider, sort of like a Model M.

I've thought of 3D printing an adapter that would turn those into Cherry caps, but haven't had the time to design one.

I think that'd be hard, to be honest. The caps are pretty thick, and have ridges on the inside, so I'm not sure they'd slide over the switch properly. If that were the case you'd get very tall key modules.

Yeah I haven't really thought it through. A quick look at my Type 5 reminds me that it has a curved plate, like a Model M. But it's still something that would be fun to do.

I wanted to transplant the keys from my Type 5 onto another Fujitsu-made keyboard, but I found that the locking keys have a different incompatible keycap mount for the LEDs under them.
At least the Type 6 and maybe also the Type 7 have the same sliders under the keys otherwise. The Type 7 that I have used are less mushy.

It's worth it, tbh. There's few rubber boards I have as much respect for as the 5c.

I always see stacks of them at the recycling center here. Quite a few have missing caps as the next budding enthusiast mistakes it for a mechanical keyboard.

If anyone reading this will be at the Seattle Mechanical Keyboard meetup on July 22nd, I'll probably have it decked out with cool SA caps like what XMIT has done here.
