Alps Switches
Alps SKCM Brown Switches
I'm back with some more Alps switches that are in immaculate condition! Just like the batch of SKCM Amber switches I listed a couple weeks back, these switches are also in pristine condition as they were pulled from IBM 5140 replacement drop in keyboards.
2x batches of 87 switches (Each batch is enough to populate a TKL/80% board)
$455 Per batch (1 BATCH PENDING)
MX footprint switches100x Vintage Cherry MX Black switchesThese have been harvested from a rebranded Wyse PCE with a PCB and case date code of 1988. I've included some pictures in the timestamp album. They were cleanly de-soldered and then disassembled and cleaned 1 switch at a time. I have made sure to not mix switch parts up so each switch was assembled using the original set of stems/housings. They have been lubed with a light coat of Krytox GPL 205g0 on the stems and railings, springs have been lubed with Krytox GPL 105 oil. Switches have been filmed using Durock 0.15 HTV/PC films.\*These are Hot-Swap compatible! Switches have been de-soldered cleanly and all the pins straightened. I have mounted each switch 5 times in different Kailh hot-swap sockets to ensure that they all register properly.$155 PENDING SOLD FOR ASKING!
Some things I'm still looking to pick up:
1 or 2 Cherry MX Lock switches. Willing to buy more if need be.
Jane V2 CE/ME Alps plate. I can get one machined/ordered online but still trying my luck here before I go ahead with that process.
Thanks for looking, feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
