Re: Cleaning keybed contacts
I also fixed some of my SY22 keys!!! I now have two broken keys but I'm too lazy to fix them. How do you fix the broken plastic pieces? Maybe your method is easier than mine....Leo Castro wrote:..... I fixed some in my SY22 few years ago.

Re: Cleaning keybed contacts
Ok, here's a little example. I glued the metal "thing" in his place, the lower part with an epoxy glue, it dries in 10 minutes, and then works really fine, like the others, no difference.

IMHO, they should re-design their "rubber" system in order to prevent dust etc. from filtering under the rubbersneolithic wrote:Those Fatar guys are everywhere

Re: Cleaning keybed contacts
I'm thinking that a strip of ordinary plastic wrap from the kitchen could be laid over the top of the contact strips to act as a "crumb catcher"

Re: Cleaning keybed contacts
I am testing another possible solution on my NS2 SW73 : adhesive mask strips as used by painters. Have to wait 6 to 12 months for the results...pablomastodon wrote:I'm thinking that a strip of ordinary plastic wrap from the kitchen could be laid over the top of the contact strips to act as a "crumb catcher"

Re: Cleaning keybed contacts
thank you! I'll take a closer look later, but I think my keys don't break at the same place as yours. Can you please take a closer photo of just the key with the glue?Leo Castro wrote:Ok, here's a little example.
