Amiga 1000 keyboard question

klx300r · 29 September 2012, 19:49

just cleaning up my Amiga 1000 keyboard and forgot that one screw at the base of the case is slightly smaller than the other three so can someone take a picture of the bottom of their keyboard for me as the smaller one should be a different colour.

google found an image. since I dont have an A1000, I cannot guarantee it is what it purports to be

@ emufan

thanks as my internet searches only gave me pics of the top of the keybaord; however, this picture shows pairs of similarly coloured screws & mine had the smaller sized screw a different colout than the other 3 larger ones

any other A1000 owners out there that can take a quick pic of the bottom of their keyboard for me please

Here's the picture of the bottom of my 1986 A1000. All the screws are redish except the one in the upper right corner, it's more silver colored. I took them all out and there all the same size and length.

thanks Ed much appreciated, as that's where I thought my smaller screw was located before I took my keybaord apart

strange that yours are all the same as my silver coloured one is slighlty smaller and I know a guy that actually put a small dimple on the top of his case by not putting a longer screw in the wrong position

^ I have done that as well! I think they were not all the same length.
