I am hoping that the timing works out. The past meetups looked like a good time.

Will be there with my first custom in hand. Looking forward to it... looks like there's going to be some pretty nice boards (and people!) in attendance.

I have a bunch of IBM boards but I'd like to bring only a couple. One would be a mini beamspring, the other undecided. I would also like to show of a third board, an very interesting keyboard with Alps switches (I won't say which ones).

I'll have a Kishsaver, F AT, Model M, and probably an AEK II.  And depending on your definition of vintage, an HHKB Pro 1.  ;)

Oh!  Totally missed the list.  :)  I'll also have an LZ-GH, Dolch PAC, HHKB Pro 2, RF10AE, Mech27, and maybe a couple others.  Plus a bunch of artisans.  :thumb:

Edit: Also an old IBM board that I'm almost certain has Hall Effect switches

Next time, you guys ought to meet in nearby Fairfield, OH—the home of Jungle Jim's, the most incredible shopping experience in the Midwest! (Well, after Mall of America, but that's way up in Minnesota.)

Besides all their special parties and festivals and stuff, Jungle Jim's has porta-potties that are actually the entrances to their modern, state-of-the-art restrooms:
