*DIY Policy Reminder*

As the Iron 165 is a limited DIY item, we want to send out a reminder to please be especially careful during assembly.

• Please test PCBs as soon as possible using safe testing methodology. Any damage incurred during your keyboard build will void your RMA. We will inspect for any damage caused by the user/evidence of modification. Remember, there is a limited number of PCBs so please be safe.
• Use the correct driver size for screws. Be mindful of stripping screws during your build!
