F62/F77 Prototype testing, brief teardown, and sound
comparisons with original IBM keyboards
F62 / F77
features:
Only new parts will be used - not New Old
Stock or used part pulls from other keyboards (you can use
your original IBM/Lexmark/Unicomp caps - they will be
compatible)
Metal top and metal bottom case, like the
original
Metal top and metal bottom inner “sandwich”
plates with interlocking tabs, like the original
Model
F barrels and full-size capacitive flippers, all injection
molded for accuracy/durability (not 3D printed)
2 mm
foam like in my original F77
Ships fully assembled at
no extra charge - no further soldering will be required. You
will put on the feet though!
Cork-rubber feet, plus a
small selection of rubber feet (cork-rubber feet like the PC
XT Model F keyboard)
Top and bottom case powdercoated
in a color similar to the original “off white/beige” color,
black, or similar to industrial gray (or you can pick your
own color and pay extra for tooling)
New buckling
springs made to original Model F spring tolerances
(ideally)
Keys to be sourced from Unicomp (or you can
provide your own keys). To use brand new one-piece dye sub
keys instead, someone else would need to take on production
of the keys.
Layouts can be adjusted at the factory, or
you can adjust them later for international versions
Metal
tabs attached to the top inner assembly for the Model M
style spacebar stabilizer wire - no plastic pieces like in
the original
Packed like a new keyboard: in two custom
white EPS foam shells and in a close-fitting brown
double-walled cardboard box
Fully assembled in China
10
foot monoprice USB cable with ferrite core
Extra
barrels (AT-style) and capacitive flippers will be produced
and made available for purchase separately (for other
projects and for replacement parts)
Any other
suggestions?
After everyone interested has placed their
order and sent payment, please be aware that it will be
several months before your order arrives.
