WTB - 7x Cherry Space Bar Wire
« on: Sat, 22 February 2014, 11:36:27 »
Anyone have an idea where I might get one or 10 of these??   I'd prefer not to scavenge one off one of my cherry boards.   Any leads would be great. 

I see that GON has some on his site, but I'd prefer not to pay the exorbitant Express shipping  (the only shipping option on the site) if these can be found locally.   And if I can get one, maybe I'll have a bunch made up or have my orthodontist bend up a bend for me.

Have cash or plenty to trade if anyone is looking for anything. 

Thanks,

skc

Think you mean a stabilizer wire? Not sure what you mean by Cherry Spring.

Do You absolutelly sure in that 6,25 & 7 spacebars have different stabilizers? If both are the same, go: http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/index.php/products/keyboard-parts.html

I need some different lengths on the space bar wire.   7x wires seem to be impossible to find, so once I get one, I'll make a bunch up.

I emailed wasdkeyboards.com to inquire whether they have different lengths on the wire, but I'm just assuming the one they have in stock at the store is a 6.25 standard wire. 

I also emailed Cherry Corp to see if I can purchase some stabilizer + space bar wire kits.    With so many people here building 86 win keyless boards and buying Tsangan modifiers, I would think "someone" would be selling 7x wires?   

I'll keep digging.   Hopefully someone will have a source for these or a spare to sell me so I have a working proto to copy.   

thanks,

skc

No sure what do you mean by the length, or why you can't get them, but imsto and GON are selling stanilzer(include 7x wire) on their website.

Well, I'm in the US and GON charges $26 for shipping on small items.    It's fine if I order a board or larger accessories, but I just need the wire.

I'll PM imsto (and search for his website) to see if I can get some for him.

Thx,

Update directly from Cherry corporation:

The part # for the kit is G99-0745. It will come with the plastic mounting pieces and the metal bar. You can try Arrow, Allied, Newark, Marsh, Online Components.com, or Master Electronics. This is not a very common part # so they may need to special order it from us.

So I will check with the listed distributors to see who has stock and the pricing.   Maybe I should personally do a group buy on this....

how many did you order and how much are they if you don't mind?
I stay busy with work and family these days, but I'm still around, lurking.
