Title: Question about Holtite sockets
Post by: MacGruber117 on Mon, 22 May 2017, 16:32:59
I'm looking for more info and I'm hoping someone from this dead thread can help. I learned from the handy dandy spread sheet another user created that holtites will fall right thru the holes in the Let's Split PCB, but if I was able to hold them in the correct spot could I solder them to the PCB?

Please let me know if you've ever soldered holtites to your PCB. I need these before I can move forward on this build. The pro micros block the back of 2 switches after its soldered on making it extra ****ty to try to swap switches or plates
