mounting

Option 1:
Gasket Strip Mount - It is originally derived from the Papilio TKL where the plate sits between 2 gasket strips. This mounting style produces a clean sound and nice feel with the option to use different gaskets to tune the sound and feel to your preference

Option 2:
Top Mount - A custom made insert is used to make up for the distance of the missing gasket to screw the plate into the top. This has the typical top mount sound and feel.
