Title: Alps/MX plate thickness
Post by: Thereminz on Sat, 05 August 2017, 13:18:39

So using the swill builder you can make a plate that has holes for alps and mx switches combined

I know the switches won't fit perfect  in either but i was also wondering what thickness you would use anyway for a plate like that since mx thickness is usually 1.5mm and alps i hear is 1.2mm

Alps max is 1.6mm, so typically a 0.06" plate will work for both cherry (1.5mm) and alps (1.6mm).
