Amkey MPTK-129 keyboard from B-52 Stratofortress

Got this from an auction posted in this thread. I'm moving this weekend so I haven't really have any time to play around with it but I wanted to post a few pictures of a quick tear down.

Damn!

You are surely the envy of the keyboard-collecting universe about now.

The "Rubout" key takes on a whole new meaning here.

[Noko]

That is amazingly awesome.  Love that MALF key

BOMB SCORE is my favourite one.

Wonder what the numbers were for

[Grim Fandango]

That is awesome.

I read the thread title and I have to be honest. I was completely lost. Clicked out of curiosity.

What do the switches feel like? And my favorite cap is the white on blue "WPN DELIV" bwahahahaha

....Although "RDR JAM" is pretty ****ing cool too

[xavierblak]

It's a foam and foil switch so it's got a linear feel. I'd say the pressure is between a mx black and a mx red. The keys have a very retro sounding clack. Some combination of the keycap and the switch shaking in it's track. It's a good sound.

Maybe you can make a typing video when you're less busy?

Beautiful! If you decide to sell any of them you know where to find me!

That is really cool actually. Some unique caps for sure.
