Damnit! Stabilizer key clip down
« on: Fri, 20 January 2012, 23:29:09 »
I pulled a bonehead maneuver while I was lubing the keys on my new rk-9000. The last key swap of the night I snapped one of the little white stabilizer key clips while pulling it out of the old key.

Grrr..... The next time you are too lazy to do something with the right tool remember me.

Anyone in Calgary have an extra?  This is my only mechanical right now. I've lent the others to convert people.  So I'd rather not wait 2 weeks for a shipment from somewhere.

Thx.

Oof. I was going to say you could get one from WASD, but being in Canada, that may be a little cost prohibitive.
Risen from the dead for a model F.

Wyse buy colors were GSY for the dark grey, GBA for the light grey, and BBI for the fonts.

Nah. Not expensive at all. Just have to wait a couple of weeks for things to come.  I'll order some on Monday.

Ill try some super glue on that little guy until I get the new ones I guess.  Panda is in calgary. Anyone else?

Temporarily fixed the clip with some krazy glue. What would we do without it!?

It will probably hold forever, but I've got some replacements on the way from WASD. Thanks to them for starting to stock replacement parts.
