I really like the style of that, and it doesn't look that impractical either, shame you couldn't get that typewriter feel to the keys, that would complete it, but it'd remove the practicality that it has

I pity the fool!

The real shame is the spacebar, I'm sure a metal strip in the same style would fit much better.

TIs way excellent... though I would agree about the spacebar, and also get black keys, or paint the keyposts black... to avoide that plasticy look

Damn thats a really good job on that frame, using a coping saw and files. HEH
Onlything I dont like is that felt pad, A nice piece of leather or real 20s felt board would have made for a nicer finish.

As for the plastic posts I dont think once could do much since if that KB is the type I think it is its high impact plastic IE really oily so paint wont stick (like painting nylon or a plastic cutting board)
