Shame this feet/screw thing has to taint an otherwise awesome product (well the two side screws are a tight fit... and the shorting out some boards without using electrical tape) BUT I still absolutely love the two boards I have using these cases. Was this the fault of Massdrop or the fault of Revo? I'm interested in some of the future Revo projects but this kind of hiccup makes me wary.

rumblehotepIt looks like Revo has been MIA and unresponsive for awhile now. It appears KBD Fans is now selling his calc pad for almost half of what Massdrop was charging and include nice pbt caps for 1 dollar extra- https://kbdfans.myshopify.com/collections/keyboard/products/kbdfans-pad-custom-mechanical-keyboard-diy-kit

rumblehotepCan you elaborate more on the shorting of boards, I'm quite interested in this case despite the issues people have listed here. Something about the aesthetics is drawing me in.

XyzacMy blue case with a GH60 Satan is fine. In the white one with a rev. C GH60 I get shorts, the 2 key, Q W S and Z all refuse to register keypresses. I figured out tightening the top left screw between tab and Q was causing all of these to fire at once. Can't really leave that screw undone since it's crucial for support and steadiness. I could also replicate the problem pushing up on the usb port in the case. So, either the case is causing an electrical short on the left screwhole, or the tightening there is warping the usb connector to push harder against the case passthrough for it and causing a short there. I put tape over the screw hole and over the lip where the usb port rests and the keyboard works perfectly fine now. Trying out a zeal60 had no issues. RGB Pok3r had issues with lighting modes not behaving properly on M through / keys, probably because the thickness of the two pcbs was causing another short on one of the lower right screws, but I like the pok3r better in a wood case so didn't bother seeing if tape would work there.
gmk + box yellows + carbon fiber plate in my blue case is absolute typing... heaven?
