Title: WTB - Apple m0118, mx stems, Apple adjustable "wings"
Post by: nevin on Wed, 30 January 2019, 17:16:16

I have a couple projects i'd like to do and i am looking for some parts...

FOUND!- Apple m0110a plate (i'd hate to take it from a working board)
FOUND! - Light Alps springs (45-55g actuation? Dell AT101? similar, would like to get close to mx brown spring weight)
- Clear mx stems (doesn't have to be clear, just looking for something more tactile than brown, not looking for box stems)
- Apple adjustable (M1242) wings (wrist rests)
- Short ADB cable that came with Apple Adjustable keyboard
- Apple IIe keyboard assembly/parts (caps/color close to the m0110/a line)
- ANY "open apple", "closed apple" keycaps
- Apple m0118 (ISO) like picture below in any language

I will have some parts that i won't be using and will post later if anyone is interested.
...so far....
- Apple m0110 PCB - tested/working, split in jack housing
- couple grey coiled ADB cables

man, I have been looking for an m0118 FOREVER. good luck finding one, especially if you live in the states like me. I would settle for just the caps. The symbol legends are so minimalistic and pleasing to the eyes.

also, what is a closed and or open apple keycap?

ambyguous, thanks. yeah, i really like the m0118 layout, the split shift, smaller spacebar & return are great. plus, it has some nice switches to as well.

the open apple & closed apple were two different modifier/command keys form the early days... (some pics below) they were individual modifiers (not the same keycode). while the open apple has transformed over the years to our standard "command" key, the closed apple has disappeared completely, possibly an early "option" key (before "option" was a thing)?

apple kept only the open apple logo & started to combine it with the command symbol, now you usually just get the command symbol.

No, not yet. Only seen them in complete sets that I didn't want to spend that much money on since I already have the keyboard and the number/f-keys pad.

If you're still looking for the Apple wings, I may have a set. I have an Apple Adjustable Keyboard I'm retromodding, but I won't be using the wings. Do you need the wrist rest off the numpad as well? I'll have to check the storage area in my office to see what all I still have available.

if you can find them and at a decent price. would just be to complete the set, i don't use it much.
