[GreenKeys] In real need for a 15/19 key top (or two)...

Hey all,

Botched restoration job on a 19 :/ .  Little green key top came off of the little canister the letter plate was sitting on.  Looking at the key, it looked like an old, harsh glue was used before by someone to repair it… so instead of going with a modern, harsh glue to put in back on (all modern super glues seem to melt anything under the sun anymore nowadays ;o ...), decided to go the safer route and use hot glue (knew I should have used warm xD ).  Insta-fail :( … cracked the key :/ .  The only (real bad//worst) fail over the past number of days while working on it ;o …..

(should have done my homework prior to glueing :/ )

Anywho, so now I’m looking for a greenkey (or two ;o ).  What I’m needing:

*Primary:  A letters “N” key, with a comma.

*Secondary:  A fractions key “C” hey with “W-R-U” (this one doesn’t bother me as much - the metal was already broke before I received it and it was being held together with some kind of glue --- but it would be nice to have a good one, so that it doesn’t fall off the key bed ;p ).

If anyone has a junker 15/19 laying around with a key or two listed above that looks halfway decent, please contact me off list - may be able to buy you a coffee or two ^_~ (/three).  Man, what a bummer - so close to being done, too :*0 …..

btw - someone was looking into 3-D printing these greenkeys… was any progress made on this ;o ?  That came to mind, as I watch the poor key start to crack itself on the table ~o~; …..

Thanks in advance anyone, that can help :) .

Now crawling back into the basement, to see what else I can break ;-o-; (joking - hopefully)……

Happy New Years to all the great people here also - if not mentioned before then ^_^ ~
