How much does it cost to get in the kish club? Im looking for an all original one, doesnt have to be perfecct.Money shouldn't be your concern as much as finding someone who's willing to let one go, I think.Im pretty patient, Im just waiting on the day someone finds boxes and boxes of f77s and kishsavers in the back room of a bank ) But seriously, Im sure someone has a kish they would sell me.I just got mine a couple weeks ago for $375 with shipping. This seems to be about the lower end of the average going rate for a complete one. A couple years ago there was a box of 29 (if I remember right) but a good number of them had missing caps, scratches, debts, or very dirty. Cleaned up they do fetch a premium.How about a beat up one missing caps? I dont care what it looks like, I will fix it up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

resurrecting this glorious threadfound a nice carrying case this week:https://www.casematix.com/product/casematix-scout/the dimensions are almost perfect for the kishsaver with very little modding of the internal foam needed (it comes mostly pre-cut).from the outside:Show Imagesitting in the case:Show Imageinternal foam:Show Imagethe corner with less foam is to put the wire-organizer-thingy:Show ImageI can plug the kishsaver in directly, but prefer using this usb-a to mini adapter so it's easier to swap keyboards.Show Imagehighly recommend this case :thumb:
Very nice setup man! That kish is in beautiful condition!
why the hell would you want to take that around with you? too heavy?get an hhkb, light and it has the layout you're copying
Regardless kish > hhkb all day err day
from a forum member? or did you find one?
You can buy new one from https://www.modelfkeyboards.com/product/f62-model-f-keyboard-kishsaver.Is it any good?

Time to share my most recent acquisition. I am extremely grateful to be able to have a new one after having to sell the blackish a year and a half ago.The case is in very good condition, and I think I will be keeping the original paint on it. Very minor chips and scratches on it, but i love the character it has. Some of the keycaps are damaged, but I plan to keep as many of the original keys as possible. Moving forward I plan to convert it to USB and change it over to happy layout. While I have it apart I will probably repaint the plate since I assume there are issues without even looking. On to the pictures.Show ImageShow ImageShow ImageShow ImageShow ImageShow ImageShow ImageHere is one issue ive noticed, but unsure if i will do much beyond trying to straighten by hand. My concern with taking it to be straightened would be damage to the paint.Show Image

My F107 has a similar bend in its case, it's something I'd like to fix but as you mentioned, I worry about the paint. If you do end up trying to fix it I'd be interested to hear how it goes.
I have had my eye on one of these for years. What is the best way of going about getting one?
hey! kinda new to keyboards but im hoping to eventually build a grail board and i LOVE the look of kishsaver cases. so... this is probably a very stupid question, has anyone purchased a case from model f keyboards and then used a different pcb and mx style switches? i love the sound of holy pandas and purchased some of those so was wondering if they would work in this case? apologies if i messed up any of the terms or anything, new to this. Also if anyone has any tips for doing this or has done this before, all info or help would be much appreciated!
Heh I ****ing regretted selling all of them for so cheap.
My wife I a also push her button . But now she have her button push by a different men. So I buy a keyboard a mechanicale, she a reliable like a Fiat.
