Typhoon Nasar is coming, take a refreshing bath for the old keyboard

The collection in 2015 has been kept on the desktop, but it is not used on the main machine. When using it recently, I found that sometimes the contact is poor. I wonder if it has aged for a long time. Buttons do not respond.

Riding on Typhoon Nasha, I just happened to be idle at home. Ready to take it apart and have a look.

Typhoon is coming

When I took it apart, there was a lot of dust around it. Looking at it from the front, it seems that it can fight for a few more years. At least the silkscreen is quite clear.

good condition

I can't even see the sign. It was a keyboard given as a gift. I didn't care what brand it was, as long as it worked.

keyboard back

Peel off the warranty sticker. It has long since failed. It still sticks fine though. Usually there is a screw hidden under this sticker. It seems to be an international practice.

Remove the warranty sticker

When I took it apart for the first time, I found that there were two types of screws.

flat head and round head

No matter, I chose to remove the most screws, but found that it still couldn't be removed, so I had to remove all the screws.

After taking out the plastic parts, only the plastic parts of the front of the keyboard and the keys are left.

Next, remove the long buttons first. Start with the space bar first. The space bar has two springs. There is also a wire. But all rusty.

Summarize:

Although the keyboard is not worth much, but this thing has been placed for a long time, and I always feel uncomfortable with some minor problems. It is good to have time to restore it to its original appearance. The most important thing is that it can be clean and hygienic. At the same time, you can also exercise your hands-on ability. It seems that the price is not worth the money, and everything can be dismantled and played with. Finally, I wish you all a happy life!
