Disassembling my IBM Model M to make my own customized "Das Keyboard II"

Anybody got the above-mentioned tool I could borrow for a few hours?

At this time of night?  Well, I guess since I'm up, I can go check.  What OD are you looking for?  I'm not sure if mine are 'thin wall' or not.  I don't think they'd be thinner than any deep sockets I've got.

No, not at this time of night - this time of night is just when I happened to be thinking about it. :)

OD is approx 10.2mm @ 20mm deep

I ended up ordering a 7/32" from clickykeyboards.com

It was a little more than I'd have liked to have spent, but it'll be so worth it when I have an entirely blacked-out Model M.
