To be fair with Ali and Botay, today I assemble the keyboard in order to have the overall look of the case.
Assembly steps:
- springs: I used a set of 68g gold spring from sprit GB and one 120g on the space bar
- switches: a mixture between Cherry MX Clear and Cherry MX Black (only used black for modifiers key with stabilizers)
- Lube type: Krytox for switches and stabilizers, Victorinox for springs
The aluminium plate is quite light and soft but it is completely flat and there is no issue with inserting the switches
- Soldering with Kester 63/37 and cleaning the flux residue with Alcohol 99% and assemble back to the case
- Partially fix the scratches on the surface with 1000-grit sandpaper, it ends up with exposing the aluminium surface a little bit
- Insert the 3M rubber feet.
- Put the PBT BSP Olivetti keycap set from Originative onto it

Although the keyboard has several post production mistakes but after all I can see that design is correct, there is no issue with stabilizer and switch position. It seems they only have the production, pre and post production issue as they said.
I hope after this GB, they can learn from their mistake, overcome those issues and come back with better quality control, design, production, service and especially the communication.
