if you can put up with a few missing keys, I'll send you my old model M for $0 + shipping.
Jan 1990, detachable cable, 2-piece keycaps.

Some pictures of the Danish Layout one would be nice.
Getting either the Danish ISO or the 1391401 US ANSI one.
Depends on how the Danish one looks like :)

Alright, im attaching a pic of the board to my post. The number row and danish specific keycaps were cleaned by the previous owner for use on a different board, thats what all the caps will look like after you clean them. I will include dental tabs for cleaning free of charge.

Do you still have any ISO layouts? Or even ISO Space Savers?
