Hi, it looks like the buttons have little notches that limit where they can go. I was really hoping to modify it so that my a button is green and my b is red would that work if I file down that little notch?

Will Platt - crwdns2934203:0crwdne2934203:0 crwdns2950251:0crwdne2950251:0

The buttons are all the same height, so feel free to file down. Those nubs are just part of assemble process.

But do leave the 2 longer stems on each side of the button, they stop it from rotating freely.

I especially appreciate mention of screw length as I'm prone to mixing them up. Lovely guide 🫠
