(first a foremost, that ogre color is insane
my condolences to you madhias, it would've paired perfectly with the subtle teal/blue on the 2550)
and now we bring you the conclusion of the simple jack saga:
he. is. risen. (literally and figuratively)
so the clack in general was already a little taller than my f2 clack (not sure if this is normal or maybe just two different time periods/molds), but now because i've got some extra epoxy in the base he's sitting a little higher in the slider. i'll let it cure longer (been 36 hours so no idea if it'll do anything) and then i'll exacto out a pathway in the glue where the vertical guides can slide into. hopefully it all holds long-term, but at least i'll always get an adrenaline rush when removing the cap from the keyboard
thanks again for the jack at such a great price moose!
