Yes, I know - but I had a soldering iron, tin, a few old teensy's from the
PS3 days and two keyboards from broken terminals, so I thought I might give
it a chance.

I wouldn't consider this as a cheaper alternative, basically it only saves
your from the shipping delay/customs when being in Europe, and saves a
fabulous keyboard from the scrapyard.

No need to do that:

Buy one that works out of the box:

It's a little pricey but it's built by the same folks that built all of the
original IBM keyboards.

terminal keyboards to normal USB HID devices, and then it's quite easy to
map the F13-F24 keys to their intended purpose.
