Hi everyone, I have a plank (v6 I think), and I kinda regretted having the 2u key instead of 2x1u (although I love it aesthetically, I would rather have two keys) Here comes the issue, the stabilizer is board mounted, so I can’t just desolder the switch and take it out, but I would have to desolder everything to remove the plate. That sounds like a mess, so I was wondering if anyone has suggestions on how to get around it. Maybe trying to cut the stabilizer and pull it out without destroying the board? 😅

    Yeah, sorry, I don’t have experience with exactly that, but if you’re sure that getting that out of there will allow you to place two switches instead – and that they’ll work (did you try closing their circuits and see that you get what you want?) – then personally, I’d just go for it. Carefully, taking time, controlled cuts, minimal forceful twisting, pulling, and turning, etc. It seems like you have nicely much “elbow room” to work.

      It should work, the board does support that configuration :) Thanks, I think I’ll try that once I have some more time in the summer!
