Bend it back little by little. Lay it on a table or a flooring tile between attempts to check how it goes.

The tape residue should go away with warm water + soap + a good rub with a toothbrush.

Thanks everyone for your advice. I 'll try to fix tape and bending issues. But about twisted esc position?
I afraid that I can't install switch on that position.

Refunded. Tape residue was my fault, packaging was also my fault to some degree.

Heat the corner with a heatgun or a lighter then squeeze a switch casing (without stem and spring) in the frame.

Thanks everyone help me to fix plate. Especially thanks to TakingTree & JD.

This is my plate after fixing:

I only can fix around 90%, can't fix it perfect. But I think it can work well.

Planning next round

nephiel · « **Reply #460 on:** Tue, 07 July 2015, 00:56:01 »

I just populated mine with vintage MX clears. Potato shot attached.

The spacebar slot was cut by hand because I want to split the 6.25 spacebar into 5 stab-less keys (Space, Fn and TrackPoint buttons).

Switch fit in the rest of the plate is secure, but feels a bit wobbly. The only switch that doesn't wobble at all is one who had a 2-pin LED header fitted inside so it's a bit thicker.

I'd try a 0.1mm thicker plate next time if possible.

Okay, i have updated the OP. Please continue your questions and concerns from round 1, i am just preparing round 2. Let me know what you think, i need your feedback. Prices are not set.

What are you going to buy?
What is necessery/unnecessery?

quochung1989 · « **Reply #463 on:** Fri, 10 July 2015, 22:54:46 »

Personally idea: You should create new thread for Round 2.

emguy · « **Reply #464 on:** Fri, 10 July 2015, 23:32:33 »

I'll go with the option 2.

The new universal plate look great! I will be in for one of those. Please keep us posted.

Interested in a aluminum plate. Going to keep an eye on this thread

That's unfortunate, I have definetily shipped it.

I am afraid I can't do anything about the "lost in shipping" part, but I can maybe give you a compensation. I have no extra plates. If you don't want an ISO.

Please tell me, did you plan on handwriting or PCB. I have a PCB plate coming(could work with hand wiring with glue). A couple of weeks.

Unfortunately no, was needing an ANSI plate. I checked with the post office again and no luck. Didn't really have any plans for the plate yet (just gathering parts) so at the time there was no preference for PCB or handwired plate.

If you pay the shipping, I can send you one of the new anodized ones. It's a PCB plate. Sorry, but that package is probably lost.

That would be amazing, I know it's no fault of yours and more than likely an issue with the postal system here. I know you're going to be polling for colors but I'd love to see a purple one!
