IBM Model-F space bar

[k2x4b524[]

Greetings,

I do observe and search, however I have an odd one.

An IBM Model-F keyboard, the space bar came detached, and will not re-attach properly but to the metal bars coming free from the keycap slots. Is there any way to re-attach this without disassembling the keyboard? The keyboard is fully functional, save this one issue.

I believe you need to disassemble to correctly reinstall. Dental floss helps too.

I was able to disassemble the keyboard, but have inserted tiny holes, one on each of the pillars for the metal rods

Thank You
