| Leaf buttons too short |

Hey guys, I tried to test mount my leaf buttons today and they were too short. I thought that long leaf buttons and the flat holders were for 3/4" thick CPs? I'm pretty sure I have long buttons, do I have the wrong type of button holder? Edit: I just found this thread and I guess those black holders are what I need? |

Can you use a router to recess out where the mechanism sits? |

It would be easier to get shorter leaf switch holders, but you could modify the ones you have too. If you cut off 1/4" (guessing from the looks of things) and drill new holes for the switch screws, you could use the ones you have (I'd probably drill then cut to make sure the holes were in the correct location). If you have a ton of buttons with this problem, you'd have to consider if your time is worth more than the money you save by modding what you have. |

I had long buttons, and needed to rout out my CP where the button holders went. |

I do have a router, so I could route out a recess. I would like to minimize effort if possible though, does anyone know where to get the shorter leaf switch holders? |
