*Help* Screw in stabilizers not fitting in Dropshift V2 keyboard
I'm trying to build a mechanical keyboard with screw in stabilizers, I've build some mechanical keyboards with click-in stabilizers, never with screw in. Somehow one of the pins of the metal top-part collides with the screw in stabilizer of the numpad "enter key". I already tried grinding of a bit of the pin that collides with the stabilizer, but unfortunately I can't make it fit/close properly. You can see that the pin of the toppart leaves a mark on the bottompart of the stabilizer, see picture 2. What am I missing? Using Durock V2 in a Dropshift fullsize V2. See pictures below, thanks in advance!

I have a WASD v2 keyboard that I gleefully put my caps onto as soon as they arrived. I ordered several sets of alphas. The black and teal spacebars seem to stay on decently, but the purple space bar won't stay fully on if I push even lightly on one end or the other.
The issue seems to be that the keycap stabilizer inserts ( http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/index.php/review/product/list/id/34/category/7/ ) don't fit snuggly enough, so pushing on one side of the spacebar pulls the stabilizer free from the other end of the cap.
Anyone else have this problem? Anyone have a good solution? Can you purchase stabilizer inserts that are just *slightly* larger so they fit better?
Thanks for any insight you might have!
I hope you're enjoying your caps. My only issue: more awesome caps than keyboards. Guess I'll just have to buy more keebs so I have place to put my key cap sets...
