The retainer should click in and press against the magnet. If there is space between the retainer and magnet, the retainer might need to be flipped over.Feather PCBFinally, add the Feather PCB into the case, ensuring the board seats into the case's rear notches fully. Carefully press the board down in front.Attach a printed spacer to a screw by screwing it on.Finally, attach the screw to the Feather PCB. The LEDs will be in close proximity to the screw heads, but should not interfere.Reset ButtonAttach the button to the lid. It requires a bit of force, so the best way may be to either shave off a bit of filament on the button with a file, or to press it in by tapping the cover onto the button.
