In regards to my 60% M project, I don't want to have borders like Hasu's Happy Buckling Spring:
http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=29483.0I'd like to have as small a border as possible. Maybe even as small as a Poker's borders. The great thing is that I can actually do this. I've planned it out quite a lot and I'm pretty sure I can make it that small, but in order to do it, I have to leave out 5 bolts on the forward edge of the keyboard. They don't look vital, but they might be and that's what I'm here to find out.
My question: Do I
need these bolts for function?
Unless someone knows for
sure that this won't work, I'll probably do it anyway and find out for the sake of the community. I'm mostly looking for what to expect. The people who probably know are those who have purchased used Model Ms missing lots of rivets. If all of the ones on the forward edge were broken and the bottom row of keys still worked, that's exactly what I need to know.
thanks, ahead of time!
