Title: IBM Model F home key cap bumps
Post by: geekhackuser on Tue, 31 January 2017, 07:03:00

Fellas...
Since the IBM Model F keyboard doesn't come with home key bumps (for F and J keys) .. just wandering whats everyone's solution?  I'm think the below

1) Live with it and get use to it
2) perhaps use loc dots just as a feeler guide (some small adhesive just for texture)
3) replace them with the 2 piece model M stem and cap...

interested in what peoples have done to handle this dilema....

Or
4) Get some from Unicomp: http://www.pckeyboard.com/page/product/mwide.

I use model M caps, or unicomp.  Personally used M caps since I have a donar board.
