In this section you will find how to build your Charybdis keyboard.

We recommend you start by reading the *required tools* section.

There are written guides, and there are also video guides in the *video guides* section.

Before starting the build, check that you have all the required tools:

- Soldering iron
- Soldering tin
- M3 Torx screw driver (a flat head will also work)
- M4 Torx screw driver (a flat head will also work)

Optional:

- Tweezers, to test the PCB before installing the switches

Also make sure to check the contents of the package carefully to make sure that everything is there.

# Required parts

![](../assets/pics/guides/charybdis/1.jpg)

**For the following step, please prepare:**

- M4 screw insert (x16)
- 3d printed case (left)
- 3d printed case (right)

{: .tip }
There are smaller screws and screw inserts (M3) in your kit. You can set those aside, we will use them later.

{: .tip }
There are other 3d parts in your kit like plates, tents, 3d holders. You can set those aside, we will use them later.


# Screw inserts - outer

First, we will install the screw inserts on the outer edges of the case. There are 6 on each side. Use the below pictures to identify them.

![](../assets/pics/guides/charybdis/2.jpg)

{: .warning }
Be careful when installing the screw inserts, you can damage the case. Read all the instructions first, then proceed to the installation.

- Set your soldering iron temperature to 250 degrees Celsius
- Using the soldering iron, place the heated insert inside the hole
- Place the smaller side of the insert towards the case. This helps guide the insert in

![](../assets/pics/guides/charybdis/3.jpg)

- *Apply little to no pressure, let the gravity do the work*. Otherwise, you might push them too far
- If the insert doesn't fall into place, you can slowly increase the temperature, but don't go over 350 degrees

![](../assets/pics/guides/charybdis/4.jpg)

- Once the insert is 2/3 of the way in, stop

![](../assets/pics/guides/charybdis/5.jpg)

- Flip over the case and gradually push it against a flat surface, to make the insert flush with the case

![](../assets/pics/guides/charybdis/6.jpg)


# Screw inserts - inner

We will now install the screw inserts that will later hold the controller. There are **2 on each side.** Use the below pictures to identify them (in red).

![](../assets/pics/guides/charybdis/7.jpg)

{: .tip }
There is **a third inner hole at the bottom** (in blue). If you are building a **left-handed Charybdis**, install a screw insert there. Otherwise, you can ignore it.

Follow the same procedure as previously, except:

- with the soldering iron, push the insert all the way in-
- **be careful not to push the insert too far !**- this time, you don't need to flip the case.
