Some of the available explanations on the shift key mod can be a bit confusing,
especially when it comes to pulling off key caps and soldering wires.

You should first get some good clip leads, with small ends,  the kind that
CE's use -- the leads should clip on to a wire with a small hook and have a
push button on the top.  You need one wire with leads on each end.

Refer to page 10 of the Apple Reference manual.  Below the white box around
'Game I/O' in the chart, you will see a chip.  You attach one clip lead to
the lower right piece of the chip.  The other end is attaced to the keyboard
encoder in this way -- face the apple with the keboard closest to you, peek
your head inside the box and look back at a row of exposed vertical pins about
an inch or so long...you attach the wire to the 2nd pin from the far right.
This works only for 'recent' apple keyboards, which you have if you bought you
apple in the last few years.
