Great looking builds. Do you have any pics of the inside? What kind of battery are you using?

On the black back with the Start/Select buttons, how well are they working for you? I did the same on my CS build and they sadly are not making reliable contact with the pads. I'm debating toying with the 3D model as I think it's the top side not making good contact or swapping them out for soft tactile buttons.

Did you have the PCB that was meant for them from AntFJ? Mine work perfectly.

That's probably it then, I used Kite's back board that came with my CS, I tested with my multimeter and it looked to be connecting but once installed it isnt as reliable.

Man, you just dumped a ton of awesome in the show-off corner... Is that a little 3D printed collet on the headphone jack? If so, got an STL?

Yea I figured I may as well since I haven't in a long time. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3195418
I really had to drill the shit out of it to get it to fit properly.
