The fit of the cherry switches, would that be rectified by power coating the plate or is the fit that lose? If so what glue would one recommend?

It is not "that" lose. With most keycaps, it won't even get out of the plate, but with some, it will. I am not an expert on gluing switches, but probably hot glue as you can remove it later.

Thanks for your order!

Close to tipping the MOQ for ANSI just a couple of hours after the orders opened. This is amazing! Spread the word to get an even better price!

We just reached the MOQ for both plates, after under 24 hours!

Next price change is 20 plates sold, we need 3 more for ANSI and 10 more for ISO to tip :)

I don't know if everybody has got in their order, but it seems like 24 hours is plenty for most people, BUT i want it to be as cheap as possible! I want it to stay atleast a bit more open and i also want some community interaction: http://strawpoll.me/4393904 thanks.

Future timeline:
Orders close > Invoicing (1 day) > Everyone pays their invoice (X day(s)) > message to China (1 day) > production 10 days > shipping to me (5 days) > preparation(packaging) for shipping (1 day) > shipping to you (hopefully1-2 weeks WW, hopefully under 1 week EU).

Ok, I was able to combine the orders! That means that it will be much easier to tip. We now both ISO and ANSI tipped to the next step. We have a total of 33 plates ordered, and we need 50 total to tip again. Please let me know if you dont understand. Please share the GB so we can get the lowest price possible :)

Is it possible to fix this problem by modifying the size? Did you measure the holes?

Fit [ ✔ by me, Cherry and Gaterons switches are a little lose, you may want to glue if you have thight keycaps and you want to remove them often. Kailh fits thightly. ALPS switches fits, but not thightly. MORE]

Unfortunately, if i try to fix this now, i will eventually end up making one of the switches not fit. Sorry about that, but there is really little we can do. It is one of the drawbacks if you want switch top removal, Alps combability and fit for Gateron, Cherry and Kailhs at the same time.

I'm getting both because I own keycaps for both layouts and I'm eager to try the ANSI as I've only used ISO (IT) so far.
I could say, it's for sake of testing.
