Which program did you use for programming your board, if I may ask? Duck's blog doesn't seem to be updated with a new firmware, at least as far as I can see.

Filled it out! Just want to make sure I did everything correctly though. Did we need the $45 feet if we got the aluminum bottom? And what difference does the aluminum or steel plate make? I chose aluminum.

Negative. If you got the bottom aluminum casing you are golden. Duck feet would be optional if you got the acrylic flat bottom.

It looks like Elton doesn't have the edit order feature enabled for his Google Form, so you're going to have to PM him to have any changes made most likely.
