English Amiga Board - View Single Post - New Cherry MX keyboards for the A500, A600 and A1200

Very very cool!

I've been experimenting with 3D printing, to see if I can get make an adapter for the Mitsumi plunger in the A1200 keyboard with a Cherry MX Stem. Basically an adapter to put an inverted + in a square hole. I've come up with a few things, but my 3D printer can't print things that small.

I'm not lost yet though, I've ordered some a few Cherry MX switches to see if I can just put the plunger part in the Mitsumi plunger (maybe with a bit of glue to help).

However; this new keyboard looks very promising indeed!
