Buttons don't stick out far enough

[Thechea]

Hey guys, I'm having some issues with my build. The X and Y button holes from the bracket aren't really lining up with the case holes, and as a result don't stick out far enough? I was wondering if anyone had any solutions to this problem.

The case was a laser-cut case from someone on the forums, and the bracket was HoolyHoo's bracket 3d-printed at my school

Aside from re-arranging the stl file and printing the bracket again, I would simply cut-off the button brackets and reglue them lower to match the case.

I had a similar problem with my first GBZ build. I snipped and cut out the inner tabs of the bracket. The buttons were able to go further down the well, but were still able to use the cavities so they didn't spin around. Also consider shaving a bit off of the bottom of the inner parts of the button wells, it might give just a little more wiggle room.

I've marked the areas that I cut on your image here:

Whatever you decide, I wish you good luck!

Try a round thick paper cutouts and place it between the button and conductive silicon pad.

It seems your bracket holes and the case holes are fighting each other, one set of holes is forcing the buttons one way while the other is forcing them to go another way.
You may be able to expand the holes in your blue bracket to give your buttons more play.
Also, sometimes attacking/screwing your board in place helps push the buttons down a little more. Not sure in this case though, the little lips on the buttons should be flush onto the inside of the case all around. So my suggestion is carving your blue holes a little wider so that you can see the inside of the case from all directions when viewing it through the blue hole.
