(Round 2) Buckling Spring Keychains For Sale
(http://s13.postimg.org/euus037mv/IMG_00000250.jpg)
Built with an IBM Model F XT barrel, Unicomp Model M spring and hammer, custom acrylic bottom plate with a blank 2 piece pearl keycap and lanyard. In this image, the plates appear brown as I left the protective paper on the bottom of the acrylic to prevent any scratches in shipping, it is easily removed. There are two small black screws that secure the barrel to the plate.
The acrylic plate is clear so you can view the stem and hammer in motion. Great way to show off your artisan BS caps. Take that wonderful buckling spring feeling with you wherever you go. Easily demonstrate the amazing buckling spring action to others. Complete your keychain switch collection.
There are 27 (see below) units available. Note that these were handmade - so not all of them are perfectly straight.
Round 2
25 sold
2 requested
0 available
Price : $13 each shipped CONUS or $10 each + shipping elsewhere (will be packaged in a protective tube inside a bubble mailer)
Payment through PayPal only. To order, send me a PM with your email address and shipping address (including phone number if international) and requested quantity, I will send a PayPal invoice.

Anxious much? :)) :p
ALSO for those who have never experienced it, for some reason the forum gives an error when replying while quoting post from the OP (0100010)

Pretty similar as far as I can tell. I think the only difference may be the screw size and length (mine are thicker and I didn't have to cut the ends flush on the bottom of the plate), and mine has a hole with a lanyard.

The two I ordered on Oct 31st were here when I checked the mail today. They were carefully packed and are in perfect condition! Thanks a ton for the really quick shipping. They will be enjoyed, thanks again. :thumb:

All i can say is that it's much more satisfying than the blue.

Updated the opening post, second (and likely final) batch of buckling spring keychains is now available. I sent PMs to all the folks I could find either in this thread, or in my PM inbox from the last set who had requested one.

These are great, If I didn't already have 2 I would be jumping on these.

Updated the counts, packing up the ones that have sold today. These are going fast.

Counts updated, all PMs replied, 8 units shipped out today; packing up new sales.

Updated counts, 9 units getting packed up now.
-
How did I miss these?
I'd like to reserve one, pending a quote on shipping cost to Australia please.
-
So wait, is this thing still going on?
If so, I'd also like to have one shipped to Australia.

Last update was earlier today, and OP says 4 left, so I'm hoping!
-
Last one has been requested - so now all are spoken for or already sold. If any of last ones requested falls through - will update the OP.
-
Damn, I missed out.
