Did some digging and found a box of stabilizers I had forgotten about.
From my testing in the brass plate:
| Stabilizer | Comments | Recommend? |
| C3 Equalz | Too tight | No |
| GMK Cherry screw-in | Too tight | No |
| GMK Cherry clip-in | Very tight | Maybe |
| Durock v1 | Extremely Tight | Probably not |
| Durock v2 | Too tight | No |
| Zeal | Good fit | Yes |
I highly recommend you pick up some zeal stabilizers if you build this one.
A no-brainer for most but I thought I would mention it here:
The plate foam isn't cut for stepped caps, so you'll have to make that cut before putting it together
The screws that go through the plate and into the top housing are a probably bit too long. I think you could have gone with a shorter screw. I very carefully cleaned out the holes with some Iso and a micro dental applicator. Lots of gunk all the way at the bottom preventing the screw from going in all the way, resulting in a loose plate. With careful cleaning I was able to get it all tight. I used paper washers on two of the screws b/c I didn't feel comfortable tightening them further, risking them getting locked in place (it's happened one too many times for me in the past
).
I built mine with the Black housing/White stem JWK POM switches. I put 205g0 on the stems and springs. This might be the best sounding keyboard I've built to date. Really happy with the outcome
