Title: [WTB] Filco 87 Keyset + Spacebar
Post by: xJaPx on Mon, 18 June 2012, 12:53:01
I'm mainly looking for the modifiers + spacebar as my current set does not support costar stabalizers.  But i'm also willing to buy a whole set, so hit me with what you got :D

Not to steal a sale from anyone, but in what way do your current keys not support costar stabilizers?  There is no physical difference between keys that support Cherry stabilizers vs. Costar stabilizers.  On the other hand, Leopold and Cherry have different stabilizer stem spacings for the space bar.  

Check the bottom of this page (http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/index.php/products/keyboard-parts-1.html) for the 3 parts of Costar stabilizers.  The stabilizer inserts that typically stay in a key cap when removing it from a Costar board can be carefully removed and transplanted to another key cap.
