Due to the similarity of the Nyquist Rev. 3 to the Iris Rev. 3/4, see the build guide for that instead: [Iris Rev. 3/4 Build Guide](iris-rev3-build-guide.md)

If you're going to go with a layout without the left macro section or right macro column, then break off those portions of the PCB. No special tools or methods are required, you can just break it off with your hands as shown below:

Do this before installing the switch plate and switches, as stabilizers can not be removed after the switches have been soldered in.
