Ducky's key-chains have nothing over this.

It isn't really that dirty in real life, I honestly don't know why it looks that bad.

If I had any more spare switches I would try a new design, after looking at yours.
It's a shame I have nothing to put this on.

I didn't drill a hole.  I have the string loop through the LED hole on the top case, and turn the keycap around 180 degrees so the string doesn't stop the keycap from bottoming out.

I screwed the key-chain into the LED hole, with some epoxy on it.
I doubt that I could get it out without damaging the housing.
