Looking forward to more updates man, that numpad has really impressed me!
It's a good width!  If it's half-width it's too narrow, and full-width is too wide.

Looks amazing.  Any chance you have tried using these small cutters in stainless?

This almost makes me want to use MX instead of ALPS for my custom board....
Absolutely phenomenal.

No I do not intend to use stainless. It is very demanding material to machine. machining it on CNC would be $$$$$$$$$$.
And really I cant see reason to use stainless?? Can you give me one, please. Maybe I'm missing something  ;)

My personal reasons would be aesthetics, harder to scratch, heavier, stiffer, and I already have a couple plates of 304 stainless for the rest of my case.  I work in industrial maintenance/construction so I understand the difficulties in machining it.  I was just curious.
