Title: Screws for 60%
Post by: pixelpusher on Sun, 30 October 2016, 12:02:50

So, I got everything ordered:

Sentraq underglow 60% PCB
Frosted clear acrylic TEX case
Aluminum universal plate
PCB mount cherry stabilizers
Clear top Gateron black switches
Sip sockets
I have tons of leds on hand

And then I  realized, there are probably not any screws coming.   >:D

Does anyone happen to know the details on the screws I need?

M2 for most 60 cases. I prefer hex head black oxide but you can get whatever finish you want.

As heedpantsnow said. I used M2x6 for my iQunix Lambo case as the included screws were too short and had very little thread engagement after they went through the PCB.

Well, I got my case yesterday and wouldn't you know it... it came with screws.  So, in case you are wondering, the TEX cases do come with screws even though they don't say so in the product description.
