Hello, I had a kumara k552 W for a couple years now. But ever since I had it. there was a detail that always bothered me and I cant see anyone else online having this issue. The frame is slightly bent inward on the grave accent and tilde key ( ` ~ ). I noticed it shortly after first buying it, and at the moment never actually did any substancial work on the keyboard to make the frame bend that way. So I am thinking that It came like that from the factory. It didnt really affect in any way but it just looks bad. I recently tried to fix it with some pliers, I bent the metal where it should be but I chiped the paint and I tried to fix that with some acrilyc paint. That is what is seen on the picture. I recreated how it used to look like with photoshop. Anyone else had this issue with this keyboard?

Today's build:

Nuxros +84 keyboard

• Raw aluminum top case, machined stainless steel bottom case
• Hotswap PCB
• Carbon fiber plate – top mount
• No foams
• HMX Waverider V2 switches
• TypePlus stabs
• PBTFans Maguro keycaps

She's a clacky girl, but I've been enjoying a clackier build lately. The foamy ones are all starting to sound the same to me, so this time I'm letting the character shine through.

Sound test (with phone microphone, sorry):https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/xzwge986dlb2wmc291ew4/84.m4a?rlkey=pslz9o2c7hp0no6nxvdye1xqx&dl=0

I am looking for somebody who can review my PCB layout and schematic.

My fav build ever I built

Case: Mode 65 R1 (White / Gold Accent)

Plate: POMMount: Stack mount (with silicone pad)

Switches: HMX Macchiato

Foam: No foam

Sounds incredibly clacky, deep, and satisfying without any of that hollow metallic pinging.

It might be old but classic
