Brentarian Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Would anybody happen to have a spare Type 5 keyboard spring I could buy? I am also in need of one each of the two types of springs in a Type 4 keyboard. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if Karl has some, it might be cheaper (shipping costs). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope someone reads this and remembers but perhaps no one else would be this dumb. If you decide to clean the mylar and remove it from the keyboard do no flip the keyboard over! All the narrow diameter springs fall out! With a well worn keyboard the spring heights are not all the same. I never did get that keyboard to look even again and I had lost one spring in the process. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
