Step 5Where to put the external buttons
If you use the type of switch commonly called the 6mm tactile switch, as I do, there is a nice place for it to go.
I find that the length of the cap should be around 6-7mm tall for best feel. My buttons are actually 9.5mm, and I have found that with a sharp razor blade, you can cut them down to the desired length.
The proper place, IMO, for the buttons, is just about level with the middle screw line, just at the crease where the handles start to form. This spot also just happens to have enough space for placement. Any further out or much further up, and you will run into space problems.
