Title: Unicomp Ultra Classic teardown
Post by: RobCridland on Wed, 19 September 2018, 07:30:27

Some of the keys have stopped working. I've noticed flexing the case makes some work - I've tried swapping keycaps about and blowing compressed air down the 'holes'. No go.

So now I want to take the sandwich out of the case. I've managed to remove the top but I don't understand how to remove it from the back.

Any ideas appreciated. Thanks.
