I haven’t attempted install myself yet (waiting for the crystal chambers… which are nearly done)This is a great post, and has helped immensely. Thank you for sharing
With the helper and reveal boards, any tips for keeping them in place so that they don't move once installed and the clamp card is sealed? I did add a small piece of kapton tape as a shim for the helper board so that the buttons actuate correctly against the switches, but I still get alittle bit of up/down play
I was considering a small drop of hot glue in the corners of the reveal board to help keep things pressed down.
Thoughts?
Very helpful! Thank you!BRRogers Thanks for putting together this tutorial. Very straightforward and easy to follow. I documented the process and steps I took which more or less mirrors your instructions. Hopefully this video will be helpful to others.

Sure thing:Thanks Bryan, will try it with a countersink bit, I hope I won't f... it up
Thank you so much for your further explanation, you're great Bryan!Sure thing:
You’ll want to use one that is (just oversized) from the head of screw. (6mm, 1/4”, or 7mm)
Keep one screw tightened in the box and main body and remove the other.
>> (since you’ll want the countersink to affect both the canoe and the bottom of the control box.)
Countersink the hole without the screw
>> go a little at a time and keep checking your flathead screw fits until it is flush.
If a burr developed on either the canoe or the bottom of the control box, simply use a file or sandpaper to remove any burrs that might prevent proper compression.
Re insert the screw and tighten it.
Repeat the process on the other hole.
This way, you’ll be able to ensure the countersink is effective all the way through the control box assembly
You can contact Lewis Petch (7Chambers) on Facebook and ask him if he has some that he can send to you. I've heard that there are more people who didn't receive their helper boards (especially from the first batch).How do you get one of these kits? I got the elite saber kit but no helper board or this.
