Title: New Cherry PCB mount switch bottoms
Post by: litster on Mon, 21 May 2012, 23:33:06

Yes, I am looking for Cherry PCB mount switch bottoms.  Just the bottoms, but I want them new.  It is OK whether they are already de-soldered or still attached to PCB.  I need about 80 or so, or how every many you have.  Let me know if you have any that I can buy off of you.  Thanks.

I have what you need, but I'll need them once I get my plate-mount switches from 7bit... They're all brand new and desoldered in a ziplock ready to go...

Tell ya what, if you offer me enough I'll sell you 80 of them and try to find another board to replenish my supply. New G80s aren't that cheap and desoldering braid doesn't grow on trees.

Edit: I think I'll just get another 8113 as the parts from those are my biggest seller. I just wish that AT LEAST half of the people would give me feedback... Only a measly 4 have taken the time...

Thanks The_Ed.  I forgot I have 2 new keycap-less Spanish 11900 keyboards stored away.  I can use them.  They are actually good for the Ergo DOX.  So if you are going to build one, you will need some.

BTW, this desoldering iron from Radio Shack is what I use to desolder switches.  It is only $11.59.  You will need to replace the tip from time to time.  But with this tool I can desolder a full keyboard in 30 minutes without fussing with wick.

I have a Weller WESD51 and ****load of fluxed desoldering braid. This was my last order of it (before shipping charges)... That Radioshack desoldering iron may work well enough for most people, but not for someone like me. I use a long (1") screwdriver tip (1/8") and all four soldered terminals are free in a matter of seconds.
