Title: Halverson needs G80-2550/2100 caps!
Post by: Halverson on Sat, 15 June 2013, 16:24:41
I need a set of 2550 caps or 2100 caps. Condition does not matter, just a full/mostly full set at a great price.

PM or post in this thread! Cheers!

I guess I would need a layout like this, thanks to whoever took this pic.

Everywhere I turn, Tsangan taunting me with all the goodies he has, and I don't!

I think I really just want the split backspace caps and enter most of all. I guess.....maybe if I post pics of the abomination of caps the board has now...I will get a pity sale.

Easy solution? Use an ISO enter, find something interesting C profile key (I might be able to help you with that too) to put on the dummy switch, and I can hook you up a 1 unit backspace. Then the only things remaining that are somewhat hard are the proper profile left end F1-12 keys.

I think you solved everything he wanted since he just wanted J return key and the 1x backspace!

ISO enter is not the same as the bigass enter that its supposed to have on the 'ANSI' version, but it fits 100% since all Cherry bigass is really ISO return and a dummy switch. I actually have all of the above on my Amiga and Commodore G80s, but am not sure if I want to let some rare boards go, or at least probably not for reasonable prices. Besides those keyboards have unique colorways and some wackass keysizes... I mean 2.75 tab key? WTF?

I mainly want the f1-f12 keys and all the LED window key caps. I also want all the key caps in the arrow key cluster. :(

I've got someone looking into if there are actually any of these (http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.3.OtfD1F&id=14315197828) available. I was wanting one for awhile, and your inquiry prompted me to look again. Sure there are only laser PBT, but Hangul and cheap maybe makes up for that some.

That might become my best option. Lemme know if you plan on getting one of those, maybe get two.

I'll post a pic of what I have now, and what I really meant by the enter and other caps. It's a monster, and just missing a few caps.

But I'd really love a matching cherry set that fits right, doubleshots would be a bonus of course.

Oh I forgot, I have a set of caps for the top row on the board, a lot of Zelda hearts. So I guess I don't need a full set, just enough cherry caps to mix and match.

Here she is:

I mean, I could leave it like that...I probably have a stepped SP caps somewhere. And could use anything for backspaces really. It's just that big nasty enter. But come on! How horrible looking are those caps? Hah.
Here is a side shot of the tank:

Could use a little painting :)

Oh, yeah that thing.... are you going to go full Cherry doubleshots on it then? If not might as well see if you an get some random crapbag stuff to complete it so it is all SP.
If I can get 8929 I don't mind picking up another. I will let you know when I find out.

2551 is a nice board. A set of those caps would work for me too.
