Oh, and following up on my previous comments about stabilizers back on page 80 and 81: the glue gun is definitely the way to go, instead of super glue.
Make sure they're facing the right way before gluing them in! Some glue will sneak outside the slot, just scrape it down with a fingernail or something plastic once it's dry (don't use sharp metal to avoid damaging the acrylic). Having some isopropyl alcohol on hand is a good idea as well, to remove the bits of glue that will inevitably get on the acrylic.

shanemaddenisopropyl alcohol will damage the acrylic so it's a bad idea to use it when cleaning up acrylic case.

shanemaddenI used plain cheap Elmer's white glue on the stabilizers, the kind you play with in elementary school.
I applied a large drop to the *top* center of the stabilizer after it was installed, just enough to fill the small channel that is created by the case and stabilizer. Leave it untouched for 24 hours, and most of it magically sinks down in between the stabilizer and the acrylic, and none drips onto the PCB. I suspect capillary action or something.
I originally intended it to be a temporary fix until I got a hot glue gun but it has been holding up just fine.
I purchased the stabilizers from wasdkeyboards.com for about $6.
