If you have the plastic that is broken off, it can be repaired like in this video:

Sadly it was broken before I got (which of course the seller failed to mention).

Ah, figured it was a bit obvious but worth a punt.

An early xmas pressie!


Time to finish the backlog…

Are you making any more ZX81 keyboards (https://www.ginger-electronic.com/en/re ... model-zx81)?

Many thanks!

They look quite nice and not much dearer than the membranes, I must have missed them somehow

How are they in use Lardo, easier or are the switches stiff?

The switches are very soft and are a joy to type on.
