If you end up with a bunch of mis-matched keys after all the sorting is done, I'm in the market for 75 or so Cherry MX donor caps, cap condition unimportant (broken, scratched, etc.).  Planning on doing a RipsterTM key stem mod for some vintage typewriter keys.

I got the FK-2001 from WhiteDuck's sale, plus a really nifty TG3-BL82, which I am using to type right now.  My first keyboard with MX Black switches, I am really impressed!  Bottoming out like crazy, but having a blast, something about the rock-solid rigidity of the keyboard and the linear switches just feels... right. 

Couple of pics, trying to capture the backlighting;

(Attachment Link)

In addition, WhiteDuck was kind enough to throw in some freebies.  I gotta say, I was completely not expecting these!  WhiteDuck, you rock!

(Attachment Link)

Yes, that is a metal dragon key.   ;D

Wow you got some really nice stuff. How do you like the FK-2001?

Did you get the TG3-BL82 from him also? I looked it up and it only cost about 50 bucks! I think that is a tremendously great deal!

I'm accumulating Alps boards for a secret project; so far I've got three Magitronic boards, the Focus board from WhiteDuck, and three Toshiba laptops that came stock with Alps keys.   ;D

The TG3 is a nifty little unit, robust as all get out.  I told my co-workers I ripped it off from a cop car.  I'm using it for a work keyboard, and it's pretty sweet, just ordered some DSA profile keycaps to replace some of the stock set.  The TG3 uses some idiosyncratic keys, apparently in an effort to reduce the need for stabilizers almost every key is 1x, even the Enter key is 1.25 or 1.5.  Not too bad for touch-typing, but I do think I'll swap some of the keys, having the Delete key in the lowest row throws off my preferred layout.

(Apologies for the delayed response, I missed your reply to my post!)

A Wyse terminal, new in bag, 16 Fn keys, PF1-PF4, yellow arrows keys, original legends etc, Cherry MX black switches, doubleshot, RJ connector.  Anyone recognize the model?
The book came with a crow and a blu-ray (not shown) the book is new and artificially aged, the keyboard is old and pristine.

looks like this one: http://deskthority.net/wiki/Wyse_ASCII

not sure what exact model number that is, but it should say on the back sticker of the keyboard. The layout looks the same as WY60 but some of the keys appear to be different

They feel like slower monterey blues.  Pretty smooth overall.  Force is a tad lighter than buckling spring over membrane.  The click is deep but loud.  The bump/click is at the very top of the switch.

They are incompatible with ALPs pinouts.  Some omrons have 3 pins....I don't know about the board I have right now as I haven't disassembled it to look.

Ever since I started with mech boards it has been my dream to have a full metal board. Then that filco came around before I got all my stuff and shattered my dreams haha(jelly). So I did it anyway.
