The touchpad is still grounded through the pogo pins and the remaining touchpad was never grounded on the original anyways.
Also this is the first time im hearing of that issue.

Hello Thomas, I would be interested in 1 or more covers, shipped to Italy
Unfortunately I can’t find a way to DM you; would you be able to message me instead?
Thanks!
well i guess with Frameworks announcement last week the demand for the 3d printed version will die down a lot except when people want it a lot cheaper than from Framework or a different color/layout.
Ill keep this post open and continue to accept orders for now, also if you need 100 shipping boxes you can buy them from me as well 
From what I’ve seen their module is only for centered touchpads
So for people like me who like it centered on the keyboard there is still a market
And if ever manage to break mine, I’ll definitively order a new one

What is the difference between a smooth and a satin finish? Is it like the matte and glare options on displays? So one is like glass mirror and the other one like a matte paintwork on a mafia car?
yea the smooth one can be a little glossy depending on the filament and will also easily show any imperfection, fingerprint or scratch so i dont really recommend it for most people.
the satin finish is a little closer to the original texture you have on the parts from framework, still flat but has some texture to it.
And then theres also the textured finish which is a lot more textured but also looks very cool and hides most fingerprints and scratches you may get onto the part over time.
Sounds like I’m in the market for the satin finish, black, offset to the left (aligning with the keyboard), 3 pieces.
Delivery possible to Europa - Germany?
Edit:
In case someone wonders: we continued the conversation through PM.
But yes, delivery is possible to Germany.
Hi, here’s my setup with a satin black part. Thanks again, Thomas, for the service and quick responses!

I think my Discourse trust level is too low to send a PM because I only made an account for this, but I’d like one! If you message me first, I’m assuming I can reply to it?
Polycarbonate filament sounds awesome for strength, and I don’t mind paying more (or for a new spool) if that means it’ll be more durable. Preferably a silver color close to stock, because I’m mostly in it because my skin keeps getting caught on the palmrest spacers, not so much for looks. Or maybe gray. But I’m also a sucker for green highlights if you still have that green PC color available. Left aligned, shipping to Netherlands.
