[Question] How to make underlays for IBM model M/F
« on: Wed, 08 August 2018, 06:35:02 »
Hello everyone,
I have recently recovered an IBM Model M 122 (the one i'm using to type this message) and while looking for info about nuts and bolt mods I run into phosphorglow's and I fell in love with the looks of the keyboards that have the coloured underlays.




but I haven't been able to find instructions on how to build the underlays

does somebody have experience with underlays? or reference links maybe?

Cool!
I haven't though about that solution

Any suggestions on how to cut the holes in the correct place ?

Likely leather punch or gasket punch with a hammer.
