Finished wiring up the matrix... twice 😬
Lessons learned:

- burning off the annealed wire in place while building up the matrix? Not the greatest idea.
- Had only AWG24 on hand. Close call to stuff into the case. Not an option for a 60% and the same low profile constraint.
- tallest component inside the enclosure is the reset button. Half a mm to a perfect fit. Will consider other types in the future. More like omron micros.

Clicky video in the reply.

@pulsar great macropad! The quality of your print looks fantastic. Such clean lines on each layer.

@pulsar it really does show! May I ask what printer you have? Or if you’ve modded yours heavily what some you changes that help achieve that quality are?

@BrokenFlows modded sidewinder x1. most important ones: replaced the extruder with a bmg clone, decoupled z rods, replaced the mainboard with proper tmc drivers and switched to klipper. and some couple minor things.

@pulsar thanks for the list! There’s definitely some stuff to try out there
