Hopefully I can trade for most of this stuff, but these are some things I'm looking for.
- Brobot V2 any color. I have some preferences (like Army Man Green, Proto Purple, RoHS Red, Board Blue, and Emerald), but I'm open to any at a reasonable price. So if you bought more than you necessarily wanted or needed and are willing to sell for around the sale price or trade for it, hit me up.
- Signature Plastics ABS color ring. If I could borrow this, trade for it, or get this off of someone for less than the $35 + shipping on SP's site, that would be awesome.
. This cap is awesome and I got it through trading some stuff. It's really a silvery color, but it was sold in the GB as white, so that's what I'm calling it. Again, it's something I'd be holding onto if I could justify, but it's a luxury item that I don't really need and really need the money instead.
. This is below the GB price, even lower if you count the $7.50 shipping.
These are handmade and tested to make sure they'll hold up. The wire is springy and flexible like any other wire key cap puller. Just slide the wires over the cap, twist it to the side to catch the corners of the cap, and rock it back and forth to carefully pull the cap off like you would with any other wire key cap puller. All key cap pullers are $25 shipped in a bubble mailer to the US, additional if you'd like a box or are outside the US.
- More to come. Several new ones have been turned and waiting to have the wires installed.

Black on cream/off white doubleshot alphas. All the alphas except, oddly, the 0) key are doubleshots. The rest are pad printed. The alphas are all in great shape with no shine that I saw and minimal wear.
Asking $10 + shipping; Sold.
-
Beige and cream Alps set. It's in good condition outside of probably needing to be cleaned a little more. They're pad printed caps. Please note, one of the Ctrl caps is missing. I had to steal it to complete a set on my KB-5181.
Asking $5 + shipping.
-
Thick Wyse set. This set is in near perfect condition. The only flaws with it is a small dent on the 8*, a small scratch on 7&, and slight yellowing on F6-F9. There's no noticeable yellowing outside of those four caps. There's still a ton of texture on the caps and no shine anywhere.
Asking $30 + shipping; Sold.
-
Cherry Plate Mount Stabilizers. I have 12 pairs of these. They have your standard 2x wires.
Asking $0.50 each + shipping; Sold, or $5 for the rest of them.
-
Cherry PCB Mounted Stabilizers with Screw. These are PCB mount stabilizers that you screw into the PCB on one end so you have solidly anchored stabilizers. I forgot to measure, but it should be a 7x stabilizer wire. I have 8 of these.
Asking $1.50 each + shipping; Sold.
-
White Alps and stabilizers. This is a bag of 101 white Alps and stabilizers from a Siig keyboard. Some may have a tiny bit of the leg that has popped off because the legs were bent over in the hole and broke when straightening when taking them out. They should still work just fine.
Asking $9 + shipping.
-
Cream Alps and 1 Lock Alps. This is a bag of 104 Cream Alps and one Lock Alps from an Apple AEK II. Some may have a tiny bit of the leg that has popped off because a couple of the legs were bent over in the hole and broke when straightening when taking them out. They should still work just fine.
Asking $10 + shipping;Sold.
-
Apple Extended Keyboard II. I don't have the means to test this, so it's being sold as is. It will require an adapter to use with any modern computer. It's in excellent condition with no yellowing, caps with tons of texture still, and dampened cream Alps with an Alps lock switch on the caps lock. It has a couple tiny scratches on it, but nothing really noticeable.
Asking $20 + shipping; Sold. I have another AEK II caps set that should be clean soon that I can include for $5 and you can have either of the Alps bags up for sale for $5 if you grab them with this keyboard.
-
KB-5181 with Monterey Blues. This keyboard is in fantastic condition with only a small melted part by the spacebar, a few scratches on the back, and a tiny discolored spot on the right hand side.
Asking $30 + shipping; Sold. If you want an AT to PS/2 adapter, I'll include one once it comes in. I haven't tested it yet, but once I confirm that it works, I'll be ready to ship it.
-
Black Dell AT101W. This board is in great condition with some shine on some of the main caps like space, shift, and enter and some shine starting elsewhere, but that's to be expected with a keyboard this old. I have reconditioned the board by cleaning it all, opening up all the Black Alps switches, cleaning them out, and applying some krytox to the sliders. It feels fantastic now if Alps are your thing.
Asking $27 + shipping. I can also toss in the bags of White Alps for $5 more or the extra Alps caps set for $2 more.
-
IBM Model M 42H1292. This is a UK made Model M with a fixed straight cable. It works perfectly with my Adesso PS/2 to USB adapter and is in good condition aside from some blemishes like a discoloration/mark on the top panel and some marks on the back. It ships with an extra spacebar (not pictured) that's less yellow and cleaner than the pictured space bar. Also worth noting is that there are no popped rivets at all with this board.
Asking $38 + shipping.
-
Lego Ninja Turtle Cap (Raphael). Made some little key caps out of Lego Ninja Turtle heads and a white stem the other white. The stem is secured with E6000 and super glue since I'm out of epoxy.
Asking $4.50 + shipping. This is pretty much at cost for me.
-
Walnut space bar. I made this as a prototype for a space bar I'll be making for someone else. Right now it's just finished in Danish oil, but I can finish it in Arm-R-Seal if you'd like. It's your standard 6.25x space bar. I think the right hand stem may be off by just a hair since it feels a little sluggish on my Pure with Cherry stabilizers, but feels perfect on my Costar stabilized boards.
Asking $25 + shipping for it.
-
Novelty Caps. Buy any of them with anything else and the top four rows are $1.50-2 and the bottom four rows are $0.25 each, including the ones off to the sides. Buy them on their own and the top four rows are $2-2.50 each and the bottom four rows are $0.50 each.
-
Pure/Poker case. This is listed as a Poker X case, but they're all the same thing, just a different badge on the back. It's in good condition and I'll be including all the screws necessary with it. Just a forewarning, one of the screw mounts popped off and was superglued back in place. It hasn't affected the functionality of the case at all, but it's just something you should know. It's perfect for those of you waiting on a GH60.
Asking $22 + shipping .
Plate mounted MX Blacks. I have a mix of the three different blacks, vintage, and the two other other housing styles. All of these switches came off boards from the early to mid eighties up to the early 90's (c.'92). I've cleaned the outside of them, but some may need a little more cleaning inside.
Asking $0.25 a switch + shipping. You'll get 10% more switches than you buy to make up for any potentially defective ones and every order over 50 will come with a binder clip switch tool so you can easily open them if you want.
I have 84 left since one pending is MIA, you can have them and the extras (~10) for $15+ shipping since I want them gone.

Cream and beige double shot set with (most) of an SP Moogle. Apparently the Moogle didn't have an \| or Enter key when I got it, so it's short those two caps, but the rest are there and the caps all still have a ton of texture. The numpad 0, +, and Enter and the Backspace are unstabilized since I got them off of a BTC board that wasn't compatible. I actually think the BTC doubleshots are nicer than SP, though they're not as good as Cherry/GMK. I'll be including some other non-standard sized caps that came with it and a Cherry black on beige Esc key.
Asking $35 + shipping. This is right around what I remember paying for them.
-
Wyse set A. This set is a less common variation of the Wyse set. It lacks the arrow keys and has a right hand side function row that's missing F1 and F2, but other than that, it's pretty much your standard Wyse. It had the esc on the numpad like IBM Model Fs do, but I added some other keys to make it so you can have a full numpad if you want. Other than the two missing Function keys, it's in great condition with very little shine (though it is starting) and marginal yellowing. It's thin ABS, not thick like the set I sold earlier.
Asking $10 + shipping.
- Bloodwood key cap puller (
more info on Bloodwood). Bloodwood is a resilient, dense, and very hard wood. Asking
$25 + shipping since Bloodwood is an expensive and a very hard to work with wood.

-
Wyse set B. This is a thin ABS Wyse set. It's yellowed and shine is starting, but not readily apparent. Overall, it's in pretty good condition.
Asking $12 + shipping
- Pau Amarello and Black Palm. Pau Amarello is one of my favorite smelling woods when I work with it. It has a unique almost sweet smell that's pleasant, though sometimes overpowering. Both Black Palm and it are very strong and durable woods.
- Padauk and Black Palm. Padauk can look bright orange after being worked with, but mellows into a darker red with oiling. It provides an interesting contrast to the Black Palm.
- Padauk and dyed Curly Maple key cap puller. The maple has been dyed with black then red dye, hence the darker sections on the wood, and finished with Danish Oil and a turning finish.
- Black Palm key cap puller (
more info on Black Palm). Black Palm is an interesting wood since, technically, it's a monocot, making it more in line with reeds and grasses, bamboo, banana, corn, etc. There's a slight color shift in the picture due to the evening sun. There is also a small scratch on it from the lathe tools that I didn't get a chance to sand out while it was on the lathe.
