<h2>Complete your CandyBar Build</h2>
This CandyBar Barebones kit does not come with all the parts needed to build a complete keyboard. You'll need to buy separately:
<ul>
<li>
Stabilizers – these prevent the bigger keys on your keyboard (e.g. the spacebars) from wobbling. You'll need four 2u stabilizers and one 6.25u stabilizer, depending on your layout. 
</li>
<li>
Switches – these determine the sound and feel of your keyboard. You'll need at most 62 switches. We recommend buying 70 so you'll have some extras.</li>
<li>
Keycaps – what your keys look like. The CandyBar has a '40%' layout, so you'll typically need a keyset with a 40s Kit in addition to a base kit. Keyset kits can vary quite a bit, so pay close attention to what's included in them when you buy.</li>
</ul>
