Im wondering if can mod a keyboard with dome switch to mechanical switches? Is it possible and what would it probably cost?

Any sifus here can enlighten me?

you might as well get a true mechanical keyboard. cheap and easy.

I know. Just wondering what it would entail if I choose the harder and more expensive path.. In terms of effort and cost.

generally speaking, it's not compatible.
If you can provide more info on your dome switch keyboard, maybe I can help to point out what/where it is incompatible.

Im using the Logitech G510. Been using for more than 7yrs now. The things built like a brick but the volume wheel is not precise as it was before and recently, the left ctrl key is kinda stuck when pressed at an angle. Other than that its still working fine.

Thing is, im so used to the widgets (LCD clock, HWinfo readings, media, etc.) on the G510 LCD screen and since it is practically still usable, it got me thinking about the possibility of modding it to fix the left ctrl issue.
