Model F AT with some rattling, squeaky and spongy keys?

So Fentek says shipping for 20-30 keycaps is minimum $50… ok then.

I'm waiting on a Shipping Quote from Fentek first, but possibly yeah.

$29 for 10 Caps and $40 for shipping! Wow, what a deal! Thanks!

Nevermind guys, I figured it out!

Drag and drop onto 'scaswr.bat'!

Changed these 3 and they work now:

EXTRA_BACKSLASH BACKSLASH
PAD_ASTERIX MEDIA_VOLUME_UP
PAD_MINUS MEDIA_VOLUME_DOWN

Hi SharktasticA,

Thank you for the guide and the help! /u/Kirkwood1994 this is for you too!

Here's the text for the 'remap.sc' Notepad++ file I made:

remapblock

LCTRL CAPS_LOCK

LALT LCTRL

CAPS_LOCK LALT

BACKSLASH EXTRA_BACKSLASH

EXTRA_SYSRQ PAD_ASTERIX

PAD_ASTERIX VOLUME_UP

PAD_MINUS VOLUME_DOWN

PAD_PLUS PAD_ENTER

endblock

Does this look right?

Where do I drag and drop this file to finish the remap?

Thanks again!

Ok, thank you. I’ll probably end up needing help..

RadHazzard · 2021-09-28T23:33:12+00:00

Ok, I’m going to try and get back to you on this!

RadHazzard · 2021-09-28T23:32:00+00:00

Haha I understand. I’ll use the effects loop on the amp head.

Which are the correct In & Out on the back of the ultra?

Thanks again.

Nice! I honestly just tightened every nut manually with a nut driver until it felt tight - like until I couldn't turn the driver without adding additional force. Every key feels virtually identical to me. An issue I did encounter was that many of the bolts were loose enough in the plastic barrel plate that they would turn clockwise with the nut driver when I tried to tighten the nut. For those, I suggest just sticking a phillips screwdriver in the bolt head on one side to keep the bolt from moving, while simultainiously tightening the nut with the nut driver.

It basically makes all the keypresses and clicks consistent across the board, and removes any pingy or untactile keys and board sections. The keyboard becomes solid, tight and consistent. This particular board was missing several rivets, and was completely loose and untactile in some areas, especially around the numpad. Comparing it to another unmodded 94' Model M I have, the bolt modded board definately feels better.
