I've got here a somewhat older keyboard which is still very much usable. When I got it from my housemate he noted that the space bar didn't work very well. After taking the keyboard apart it turns out that the metal clips at both sides of the space bar no longer have the opposing plastic bits they normally hook into to. The space bar thus 'wobbles' around on the central switch which makes it hard to press it correctly so that the switch registers a key press.
Some ideas I had to fix this are to find a way to replace the plastic 'hooks' the metal clips normally slide in, or to put something soft 'n' squishy underneath both sides of the space bar. The latter option seems the easiest to me, just need to find a suitable material
Any thoughts?
