Ryan I got my cases in today and they're beyond my expectations. The packaging, notes, diagrams, everything is a treat to pick apart.
The taper is a bit of a paradox, from the top down it looks straight but from the front it flares out, neato.
Got my astro purple installed, typing on it right now in fact, and even though I was going to hold off to do a domeswap for the singularity I couldn't wait and wanted to try it stock.
Set everything up in the same manner and ... nothing works? Checked cables and redid screws, nothing.
If I take the realforce and daughter board out of the case, just connected to each other via the ribbon cable with no ground, THEN it works.
If I hold the daughterboard up against the case and connect the cable through the usb-c hole, also works.
The second I use one of the two screws to secure the daughterboard to the case the keyboard won't register.
I'm not very component savvy but does this mean the case is shorting out the board? The base aluminum is a little exposed around the holes.
Tried some tape over the holes since that helped with shorts on some other cases but no luck.
Has anyone had this sort of problem before?
edit: after many many many unscrewings and dropped screws I've deduced the problem is making sure the daughter board is FLUSH TIGHT with the case, gotta make sure that port is right up in there... phew~!
Also you were right about the gloss black, it seems to summon dust and fingerprints out of thin air but good lord I love it, it's so
blackVery, very pleased! Also all cables work
Thank you very much for all your work on this project!
