       Tell me the tricks of replacing old keytops with molded keytops =

the filing. Is there a better trick?

  Try PVC-E glue and try to keep part of the keytop aligned with one of =
the key stick edges.  This helps us keep the trimming to a minimum.  =
Some sanding with a 1" belt sander can be done.  We still file the rest.
