Model M Shift key stabilizer
« on: Fri, 01 June 2012, 21:52:17 »
I recently acquired a Model M keyboard off eBay for my work computer, but have found that there's this white plastic piece that stabilizes one of the Shift keys (as well as the enter and backspace keys). I rummaged around to see if I could find anybody selling spare Model M parts, but my search hasn't come up with anything. Here's a picture from a site to give an idea of what I'm looking for:

If you look at where the enter key and backspace keys should be on the board, there are two white plastic bits next to them. I am looking for that. If anybody has a spare they'd be willing to sell or knows where I can find that, I would be very appreciative. I'd be willing to pay about $5 or so for that piece. Thanks!
