singlexyzHey there! Great eyes! Thanks for spotting that for me. Don't know when or if I would have noticed that one. My fingers, admittedly, don't spend much time in that area other than del, so it probably would have been like that for a long time! I appreciate you noticing and letting me know!

I presume you are askin Singlexyz, as mine is the picture we are commenting on. If, however, you meant this for me, I can post some additional shots! (Things get dusty fast in my house, and I'm not going to get it all that pretty though!) =-)
I'll also say, this isn't my favorite board and probably won't be these caps' final home. I ordered them the better part of a year ago and the keebs I had in mind for this are in use elsewhere with other things on them. This board was the best fit I had that didn't have some other project when these caps finally arrived. I couldn't wait, so I just tossed them on this old beast.
This is a Coolermaster CMStorm fullsize. It is plastic, but it has taken an absolute beating and still works great. The top left corner (which you can't see in any of the pics) is actually flattened from being dropped from backpack height on pavement. This keyboard was taken to and from work every day for several years (worked in a 24x7 NOC with shared desks. ICK!) This keyboard is nothing to brag about, but it has served me well.
Though I've tried many switches, I still eventually circle back to browns (I know, super boring), and that is what this one is outfitted with. I will say, I haven't attempted to game on this thing, and probably won't. I love this profile for typing, but I'm not sure I'd be a huge fan for FPS. Who knows though...? I actually like gaming on the ctrl quite a lot, and am currently on a coffee table (space premium) so have just a cheap little Smart Duck 60%. The Smart Duck is NOT my favorite of anything, except the category cheap+small+mech.
Wow...just realized that you asked for a pic, probably of that other person, hahahaha, and I wrote a page. Anyhow, that's it! Enjoy? I guess?

*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!

Polymer clay
Don't drop crazy cash on custom wood builds! Instead go buy polymer clay and paint. Then you can spend a ridiculous amount of time trying to make it look like you can afford to drop crazy cash on...

Want to build a Clicky Mech Keyboard. Where to begin?
Hello all. Am brand new to the idea of building my own keyboard. Have not a clue where to begin this process. I am a Sim Game enthusiast. American Truck Sim, DCS Flight Sim and goes from there. Need some real help on where to start for making my own Full Size, Clickey Mechanical KB. I want each key to have its own backlighting. Are there keys that are better than others for this? Is there a great spot on site for a person who has never even taken a keyboard apart? Let alone fixed or built one? I would like it to fit my theme of Red and Black. Yet maybe have the option of changing things up a bit. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all kindly, Durazell

Does the ALT v2 PCBA support USB-C e-marked cables?
Currently my ALT v1 does not work with e-marked USB-C cables. I was wondering if the v2 PCBA does support these types of cables (thunderbolt 4 cable for example)?
