Title: [june] Access-IS keypad, Cherry florescent set, Blanks, Vintage & custom keycaps
Post by: berserkfan on Sun, 19 April 2015, 12:59:27
WTT a set of colourful vintage keycaps and/ or the vintage black Cherry MX switches.

I got this for the metal casing so that I could use it when samwisekoi’s Gh144 is done. I intend to have the solidest (vow, this is really a word!) GH144 around. While all geeks can only make do with Unicomp plastic, I will have Model F era steel, heh.

Am interested in exchanging the keycaps and/or (vintage?) black switches for other things. Keycaps trade for other SA or DSA keycaps, switches for money or just offer. I have some spare SA keycaps including backspace legends or blanks that I can include, so you get a full set including an ANSI return and Slash key.


[attach=10][attach=11][attach=12][attach=13][attach=14]

Looking to sell my Access-IS keypad.

[attach=7][attach=8][attach=9]

8x10 matrix.

This is my spare, and as you can see it is totally clean and in excellent condition. Practically new. Don’t need it now that GH36 is going into production. I have pledged to help Samwisekoi meet MOQ.

Has nkro (you can see the diodes). Fully programmable on windows 7. USB plug and play, idiot proof. Very well constructed. Heavy and won’t move on your desk.

Comes without keycaps unless I can find them. They were probably stored in some very hard to reach box and I am not going to turn my storeroom upside down. If I can’t find the keycaps I’ll give you lots of nice black new blanks.

$90 + actual shipping. In Southeast Asia shipping is $20 tracked, Asia ex Japan $25, elsewhere $30 tracked.

Feel free to make an offer! This must go, because I hate black switches and no longer need a spare!



Cherry florescent keycap set

PBT lasered keycaps. Set is used. Fits most standard keyboards except for the ISO return and 1u slash key. Spacebar is standard Cherry off center stemmed spacebar so you may want to consider blutack mod. Comes from G80-8200 set, so also has relegendables (not shown and are not part of the sale because they can't be dyed).

$17 shipped with tracking. I'll throw in free standard WoB new DCS profile return and slash keys.[attach=5]

I will trade this for another blank white fullsize PBT set.

Selling or trading relegendables or blanks

Prices are as in the photo. Quantity available is ‘a lot’. I have at least 20 of each. All relegendables have covers except for Tipro KMX which has no covers and is cheaper. (Can't find my bag of Tipro KMX for now)

Minimum purchase 20 keycaps, minimum 5 of each type.

Will consider trades for any keycaps not of these profiles, simply because I want to have different profiles to differentiate my matrix boards by touch.

[attach=15]

Cherry blanks

White blanks. I have very few coloured ones left. Here's a pix of them on TheGreatAntlers' keypad to show you what I did for him.

[attach=6]


White Blanks
Price: $0.4 each

Weight of each keycap is about 0.9g. (60 for 54g)

Paypal goods or gift both ok. Will consider exchanges also for other blank PBT, DSA or SA profile keycaps, with the appropriate top up from my side (or more blanks from me).

WTT Blank keycaps, DCS profile row 4 for anything else

Using different profiles and rows of keycaps, I have never been satisfied with side print. No matter what profile or row it is, you can never see the legends very well because there is not a lot of the keycap side visible to a user.

Until I hit upon the idea of using Row4 DCS for displaying legends. Looks awesome, doesn’t it? The legends are written on using gold paint marker. Another advantage is that you never touch the legends, which is safe for both you and the legend!

[attach=3][attach=4]

I have too many of these guys. Anyone who wants to exchange your blank keycaps with mine are welcome. Am mostly looking for other rows and profiles. I’m sure many of you have SP crap bags where you have too many of one keycap type and are hoping to exchange in order to get a more even mix. In my case I want different keycap heights to approximate a contoured surface.

Cost of shipping:

$3 for 20 keycaps, untracked.
$15 tracked for 250 keycaps.
Anything else will be in between.

Hey thanks for your order Findecanor. Shipping will be $4 and note that I dropped my prices since you posted.

I’m quite willing to dye your caps for you if someone else has a dye order!

Hey thanks for your order Findecanor.
I sent you a PM a few days ago asking for PP address. You could also send me a PP invoice: my username here, but at Google's mail.

I'm sure this is garnering interest and sales, but you have a lot of competition just from the manufacturers for Cherry compatibility. For a nicer markup, you might want to consider dyeing Topre blanks...

Nope, no interest. Once these are sold there probably won't be any more, because I'm mostly done teaching the kids colour theory. I still have about 250 white blanks I want to sell.


This is about education, simple as that. And now the kids know that they can dye anything light coloured into another colour. All the old 'not my favourite colour' clothes are getting a new lease of life. This is where we are winners. I've been bombarded with dye requests for pajamas, socks, and Teddy bears (no way!).


Those idiots who think this is some kind of profitable venture are living in some low cost hellhole or don't have experience dyeing. Why anybody will spend 20 minutes standing at the stove stirring, racking up energy costs and time costs in exchange for a few cents in mark up that other people still want to bargain down, is beyond me. I'm doing most people a favour by selling stuff it would cost them more trouble to produce. Even a burger flipper or refuse collector stands to make more money. Anyone who disagrees can just do the work himself.

I got my 30 white keys today. They are real nice. :D
Thanks!

When I got them I thought first that you had used the same supplier as IvanIvanovich's printed keys a year ago, but yours are whiter.

That's the strange thing about white. You would think that there should only be one white (eg one white light) but there are actually so many whites. If you see SP's website they have lots of codes for white.

Hi there, I am dying some keys myself and am having a hard time getting the colors right. Can you explain your process for the green and yellow keys? Did you use all of the die? How much water? How long did you die them for?
