Looks like Clueboard is on Massdrop. Congratulations Skully!

Quick question is the PCB offered still the version 2 of the PCB in which one would have to do additional soldering of a wire to get the left shift to work (can't remember the details..but it's something like that).

All of the PCB's affected by that problem have been sold. All future PCB's going forward (including those shipping from my shop today) do not need that fix.

I just soldered my Alps Clueboard today but I have some issues with the Matias stabilizers.
They seem to be too long. Whenever I press down the key the stabilizer wants to keep going another mm or 2 making the key very hard to press and even flexing the switch sideways.
That can't be right.

Am I doing something wrong here or do I need to do some modding on the wires?

Which direction is the insert facing? Can you take a picture of it, and maybe one that shows it flexing?

I will give it a shot after the weekend. For now I sort of fixed it by bending the wires inwards.
