does anyone have an actual measured diameter of
the pad available?
As near as I can measure they are 7/16ths of an inch (11mm) in diameter,
3/16ths of an inch (5mm) tall. I don't have calipers so these are eyeball
on a ruler measurements, but should be pretty close.
I can do pictures if you want.
Heck, if someone wants a few samples to try and reproduce I can do that too.
Does anyone know anyone at Keytronics who might be able to swipe the
original machining, specs, etc? Maybe someone high up we can talk into
making a few tens of thousands more? :-)
Heck, they owe the community for these problems and should do this by way of
apology. Give me a good, last-a-century buckling spring keyboard over these
mushboards any day!
Hi Erik
I have some poly foam that is about 1/16 thick. Mayby stacking with
a little contact cemment would work well.
