What you will need for this step

For one half:

• 1 x PCB
• 1 x top plate
• 29 x switches
• 29 x keycaps
• 1 x knob

Assemble

• Snap a few switches into the top plate, the corner switches work best
• Place the PCB on a flat surface. This will save some strain on the solder joints in the next step (though they should be able handle it).
• Carefully lower the top plate with switches on the main PCB and push into sockets. Ensure pins are aligned.
• Snap the remaining switches into the top plate pressing into the sockets.
• There are no standoffs between the PCB and top plate
• Place the encoder knob on the shaft. Lift the knob a few millimetres. Tighten the set screw with a hex key. A small screwdriver for eye glasses may do in a pinch. Press the knob down. You should feel a button click. If not, you may need to loosen the set screw and raise the knob a bit higher.
• Put adhesive rubber feet in the corners so the keyboard does not move when you type.
