Title: Cherry MX Stems - any color
Post by: JustCallMeCrash on Sat, 22 October 2011, 20:46:05

Honestly any color will do.  I have a Filco PCB that I'll be attaching switches to and I already have the switch base, top and spring but I don't have any spare stems.  If anyone has some from a donor board (browns from an ErgoClears for example) that they don't have any plans for, I'd love to have them.

Thanks.

I can send you as many black stems as you need. 0,10€ per stem.

I actually have exactly what you say, Browns from a cherry POS donor board used for ergoing some clears and making some ghetto reds... I only have about 110, but that should cover your Filco and leave you with some extras. $0.12 per stem, plus shipping cost from USA.

I love this community... you guys are fast.  I'll keep your offers in mind.  Thanks!

Damn!  Just counted the springs I have in hand and came up with only 48!  Not sure where the rest of that set of black springs went, but I'm short nearly 40 springs.

Looks like I'll have to keep my eye out for a donor board.

I think you sent me some clear springs...  maybe they got in the wrong baggie by mistake?  Unfortunately I don't have any verified clear springs to compare, they all made it into a board (w/ plate mounts, so it's not easy to check.)  My POS board w/ clears is at the office...

Whoops.


EDIT: As I recall, that was what you were wanting.  Oh, you're not complaining.  My bad.
