Wow!! All these amazing build pictures and comments! I cant keep my eye off this thread or the whole thing explodes xD happy to see everyone getting their orders in. I do apologize about the tightness issues. On my next board I've made sure the plate and case holes are .1mm bigger so there's wiggle room for the screw and such.
I've got more PCB's and Acrylic Plates coming soon.
Stockpiled for the long future in the likely absence of a second Pearl Group buy. If anyone actually reads this, JORDI, my acrylic cutter, made me foam inserts that sit between the plate and PCB. For that super premium sound dampening! Cannot wait to see how that works out. Jordi is the man. BoomSnapKep still trying to make some artisans. Still packing stuff, etc etc.
Donut, still working on your plate. Eyedrop, your Pearl is being built! energyd, sent your replacement hardware this morning via envelope
So if I understood it correctly, I can use Costar or Matias stabs (I think they are the same except for the insert?) depending on the caps having MX or ALPS mounts for the stabilizers. Am I right? Or are there cut-outs for the Costar stabs dimensioned to 2u and 6.25u and then I'd need to bend a wire to fit the caps with Matias inserts and costar stabs?
Letme clarify. My plates only support 2u and 6.25u costar or cherry stabilizers. No Matias support. If your caps use off size stabilizers, you are out of luck :/
