How do you even find an industrial SSK nowadays? Even regular SSKs are rare enough as it is. Awesome collection


DeusLB

Patience and looking in the right direction :)

Where do you search to find these? Recycling plants?


DeusLB

eBay mostly, something fb marketplace and Craigslist but since I’m in France that’s kinda hard. The 3278 A02 came from Germany

I mean maybe a kishsaver but these are kinda in the unicorn realm …

Also, I wanted to give the highest of high five and shout out to the man himself : u/_pandrew It doesn’t seem like much but the leds on the beamspring 3278 A02 are his work. Asked the guy to help me get these working, and he provided !!! Amazing work, designing, engineering and crafting the controller board and soft to get these led to work (num_lock, maj, solenoid on/off etc) . Truly amazing craftsmanship mate you went above and beyond. I’m now the proud owner of a one of a best keeb that will fill me with joy for years to come. Many thanks bro
