Re: Proud New Owner! (shipping an EII)

I managed to get the low c jury-rigged - just taped a small piece of  
cardboard on the side of the one 'tooth' that wasn't broken.

What do you use to clean the contacts? Just some rubbing alcohol on a  
q-tip or something?

PS The guys selling parts on ebay said he will have some unbroken keys  
for sale soon. I told him he would have customers on this list. By my  
tally, he's made $340 so far off parts from that machine with quite a  
lot still not posted/sold. He could end up making as much as selling  
parts as a whole working EII!
