Lost a leg (black Majestouch 10kless)
« on: Mon, 12 July 2010, 18:02:30 »
Where can I get parts for a black Filco Majestouch 10keyless?

I spent few weeks in the States last month. I don't know what airport security did to my board but it was missing a "leg" when I opened the box at home (Montreal). It still had both when I packed it at the hotel.

Thanks

I would fill out a classified ad to see if anyone has any spare parts. You might also want to consider contacting the Filco vendor, EliteKeyboards. No guarantees they have parts, but it's worth a shot.

You can also look around for compatible legs from cheap rubber dome keyboards, if you have any sitting around.

EliteKeyboards was my first idea... I sent a note to support but I don't have much hope. As for compatible, none of my boards have compatible legs.

But thanks for the reply.

Maybe one of the airport security people needed a leg for one of their tenkeyless boards, so, took one of yours.

You never know... I now wonder if my keyboard broadcasts everthing I type to the NSA.

Basically, never put anything even semi-ruggged in your checked baggage, or pack it like it has to survive a war.  Every time my friend with an electronic wheelchair flies, they have broken the chair.
