Instead, slowly pull each key up from the top until it "pop" out of the snaps. You could try doing the top left and right corners separately, but I found if I did that it tended to torque the "scissor" mechanism underneath the key and sometime it would pop out of it's hinge and I'd have to carefully pop it back together (something I was able to do with a tiny screwdriver in combination with a fingernail). It worked best for me to pull the top evenly all at once. Once the top part of the key is snapped out, with a little bit of wiggling the bottom hinges should slide right out. I kept going until all letter keys (except A and M) and the [ and ] keys were removed. That wasn't so bad. I was a little worried about the F and J keys as in my experience sometimes keyboard manufacturers like to throw in something a little different for these "home" keys, but luckily they were lazy this time and the F and J were no different than the rest of the keys (except for the little ridge on top, of course).

Racking servers, and managing racks in general requires a surprising number of tools. I use the inside of the bucket to carry cables, rails, and other needs into the datacenter, and then use it to hold the trash I take back out. The other side has most of the good stuff, like caged nuts, screws, various specialized rack tools, etc. I killed my beloved electric screwdriver trying to turn it for additional torque, so I replaced with with a 12v Ryobi thing that's got way more grunt. I also added a flexible snakey thing for trying to work around power strips when dealing with the back of servers.
