*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)?

Anyways, really cool to see some custom PBT sets. Hopefully this becomes more of a thing.
This is a single layout kit with 0 options. Rather disapointing after we've already seen ISO keys and plenty of bottom rows supported in the latest Blank PBT keycap drop.
Can you buy this set anywhere else right now? No. That's what makes it "custom". It's a colorway that wasn't previously available, and now it is. And it is because someone from the community suggested it and worked with MD to get it produced.
There's nothing wrong with having different definitions of what a custom keycap set is. I just opened this drop and had high expectations to find that Varmillo has gone full Vortex.
But more keys means a higher price, and then you would have people complaining about having to pay for "extra" keys they don't need for their board. And options kits require MOQ's that, based upon the MOQ of 100 for this set alone, probably made them not feasible for this drop.
It's a balancing act and you're never going to please everyone. It seems like they aimed for the most common layout in order to make the drop as successful as possible while keeping costs as low as possible. Can't really fault them for that.
