[WTB/T] 8x Monterey Alps/SMK Alps mount
« on: Mon, 14 September 2015, 00:22:52 »
I need just eight. Up for trade I have:

* some SMK Cherry mounts
* more than a hundred genuine complicated white Alps that need to be lubed, maybe cleaned
* or an entire wkl Focus 2001 with some missing modifier caps, includes above white Alps

But if you want the entire board I may need to charge for shipping. The keyboard does have some flaws, I'll send you some detailed pictures if you're interested.

Good luck. About a year ago I thought that somebody was trying to buy a junk blue Monterey keyboard and part it out (could it have been Comrade Sniper?) but I can't remember what happened.

I have some of the clicky white SMKs but I have never looked to see whether the (switch) mount is the same as the Montereys. They do not have Alps cap mounts.

"The old Republican Party was a stool with three legs: social conservatism, economic conservatism and national security conservatism.
So too is the MAGA Republican Party. One of those legs is the nativist extremism of Stephen Miller. The second is the anti-government extremism of Russell Vought.
And the last is the open, flamboyant corruption of Donald Trump — a corruption that degrades a people’s faith in government and makes it all the easier to remake the state in the image of a single man.

Do your switches look like these ? That's the same "Cherry mount" variant I have. I'm looking for the Montereys because they should be (at least nearly) identical to the ones I have in all aspects except cap mount.

It just occurred to me that since SMKs are incompatible with almost all PCBs, I'm unlikely to find a few unused switches. I might have to troll eBay for a while in hopes of an old broken board.
