First time show off pics for me here. Bought a cheapo (and pretty garish) board so maybe not the best housing for these keycaps.
As others have said there are alignment issues on a few mostly alphas, and off-centre nums. The most disappointing for me though was the modifiers aren't quite the colour match I'd expected which was more beige than just plain gray. Maybe it's just me I dunno...
The import duty always hurts the most (UK). But overall love the profile, and I don't have missing keys, so ..

RealLaughWell I'm a newb to all things keebs & no expert. My blues are mx replicas, not sure which & I really don't care. (I've used browns and reds before). I think these caps would suit harder switches over lighter; the sculpted nature is asking for very positive pressure and feedback. These blues are on paper the hardest I've used on TKL's (my unicomp is a different matter), but I feel they could shine even more from more stiffer. I agree with most everything ojrask (above) has said about the actual keys. I would add they do feel a little lightweight in use, perhaps a thicker construction would have been good. I'm using cheap O-rings to stop the slightly annoying clap as they bottom out. Maybe a better quality board would sort all this.
If you look at the F and H on my third pic you can see the hysterical slants, plus several other defects, and this ruins it a bit in use. Overall I do like the profiles, that's why I bought them. The alignment issues, what ojrask says, and the gray of the modifiers is disappointing. Hope that helps, I'm really no expert on this. QC issues aside I'm grateful to matt3o-devtty team.

*Help* Screw in stabilizers not fitting in Dropshift V2 keyboard
I'm trying to build a mechanical keyboard with screw in stabilizers, I've build some mechanical keyboards with click-in stabilizers, never with screw in. Somehow one of the pins of the metal top-part collides with the screw in stabilizer of the numpad "enter key". I already tried grinding of a bit of the pin that collides with the stabilizer, but unfortunately I can't make it fit/close properly. You can see that the pin of the toppart leaves a mark on the bottompart of the stabilizer, see picture 2. What am I missing? Using Durock V2 in a Dropshift fullsize V2. See pictures below, thanks in advance!

Polymer clay
Don't drop crazy cash on custom wood builds! Instead go buy polymer clay and paint. Then you can spend a ridiculous amount of time trying to make it look like you can afford to drop crazy cash on...

Want to build a Clicky Mech Keyboard. Where to begin?
Hello all. Am brand new to the idea of building my own keyboard. Have not a clue where to begin this process. I am a Sim Game enthusiast. American Truck Sim, DCS Flight Sim and goes from there. Need some real help on where to start for making my own Full Size, Clickey Mechanical KB. I want each key to have its own backlighting. Are there keys that are better than others for this? Is there a great spot on site for a person who has never even taken a keyboard apart? Let alone fixed or built one? I would like it to fit my theme of Red and Black. Yet maybe have the option of changing things up a bit. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all kindly, Durazell

Does the ALT v2 PCBA support USB-C e-marked cables?
Currently my ALT v1 does not work with e-marked USB-C cables. I was wondering if the v2 PCBA does support these types of cables (thunderbolt 4 cable for example)?
