Know before you buy

Yes, these plates are precision-cut to accommodate standard Cherry MX style switches. They provide a secure fit for both soldered and hot-swap configurations.
No, these are purely cosmetic marks resulting from the laser-cutting process. They do not impact the structural integrity or the performance of the plate once installed inside your keyboard case.
