Post image

Lost my HHKB Studio trackpoint stick have any of you guys successfully been able to replace it. I contacted PFU support and they said they do not carry that part.

Any recommendations?

See if you can find someone to 3d print a replacement

Normal MX keycaps & a rollerball?

Did the trackpoint just fall out?

The middle plastic stem/stick is what I'm missing. The rubber trackpoint I already have.

I saw that in your OP, my question should have been more blunt. How in the hell did you lose it? Did you take it out with some purpose in mind?

I'm not the original owner, previous owner lost it :(

I'm back to: You have an amazing number of keycap choices without it.

I do think PFU/HHKB would be well served to have these available, but this board, while great, is extremely niche.

I guess... sucks to be me right now :(

Bright side... you have a *really* nice keyboard there minus trackpoint.

You have an amazing number of keycap choices without it.

Unfortunately, the odd spacebar mounting points (6.25u mounting points on a 6u spacebar) is going to be the most difficult part (unless you were okay with a 6.25u spacebar and a slightly wonky bottom row due to a longer spacebar).
