Hey guys after a nice little rage-fest I managed to break both of the pieces on the back of my filco keyboard, I don't know exactly what they are called but I was wondering if its possible to order replacements for it somewhere or something. I looked around a bit on the net but I haven't found anything so far.

I doubt it, since most aren't removable unless you break them. Just make some out of tape and paper or something

You got pictures of these pieces? Is it the stand?

I'm assuming it's the pieces in the back of the keyboard that flip out and prop the keyboard up

Those are so weak, my broke off as well.
I'm pretty sure they are replaceable, they're the weakest piece of the whole keyboard. Have you tried calling the company?

Even if they aren't replaceable, super glue honestly works wonders

When I raged and broke the little tabs holding up my keyboard, I used the 2 windows keys that I had removed and put one on each side, it worked out well. I dun know how the filcos are modeled so it prob wont work for you.
