Spacebar Clipping Keyboard
« on: Sun, 19 January 2014, 11:33:38 »
Hi all,

I am currently using a noppoo choc with red switches. I also have a noppoo with black. The keyboard with the red switches had a spacebar that is constantly clipping the edge of the keyboard, as in it is rubbing against the keyboard very distinctly and it is driving me crazy.

The stabilizer platform was slightly wobbly so i glued it back in place but this did nothing. I cannot notice any difference between the red and black switch keyboard and even tried switching the spacebars around.

Has anyone suffered this? Any suggestion on how to fix it?

Are you sure you glued it back in place correctly? Can you remove the spacebar and take a picture to show us? Seeing it might be more helpful.

The glue is just on the left side of the spacebar under the metal stabilizer bar. The glue is not touching anything but the base.
