Hello, I'm just rereading my post. I called them "hardwood" keybuttons. I meant "hardboard" key buttons, as in the stuff they make pegboard out of. I have rebushed lots of hardwood buttons and they are wonderful indeed. Does this "slight" revision, lead to different responses? See you in Rochester.
