I have de-pinged my Unicomp Spacesaver using Super floss and am very happy with the results but I am finding it impossible to reseat the three keys to the left and right of the spacebar together. All fit fine individually but there is not enough room (clearance) between the keys to fit the lefthand Windows key between the Ctrl and Alt keys or the CtrlGr key between the Spacebar and the Windows keys on the right. There just doesn't seem to be enough clearance between the sides of the keys. It's crazy because the keys fitted ok before I took them out so they must fit back now.
Can anyone put me out of my misery, please? If the worst comes to the worst I'll just use blank single width keys for the two problem keys but I'd like to get back the proper keys if I can.
Thanks.
Help reseating some keys on Unicomp Spacesaver, please

Thanks. It was pilot error of course. When I went back and checked a pre-customisation photo of the keyboard I saw that I had (as you suggested) been applying the wrong lower row keycaps to the wrong switches. What happened is that I used my Quiet Spacesaver (sitting in front of me) as a guide for keycap locations and this was wrong - caps on the Quiet model I have are of different sizes and at some different locations. I should have gone back to the pre-photo I took.
Thanks for your help. The keyboard is working and sounding wonderful now.
