Btw I should of asked above. What is the purpose the the H pattern cutout vs square. I have heard conflicting stories. Would anyone be able to elaborate? Does it assist w removing of the switch tops once soldered and mounted as I have read? Perhaps something different?

Thank you matt3o and q11q11. I am reading it all. Feels like I am making progress. Easier to work hard at the idea as I tend to get luckier the harder I research. Besides I really want the first project to work. Again thank you both for the input.
