A simpel hackpad with 3 switches and a rotary encoder

Ship #1 Changes requested

The 2 main special features of this hackpad is how the lid is slid in place and then screwed, and how it is on a 10 degree angle. I wanted to make the lid slide-in-place, so the front would be a single uniform piece of 3D printed plastic, which i thought would be more comfortable. The angle is for better ergonomics (and it matches my current keyboard angle). Using a new software (KiCAD) was challenging, as it took a lot to get used to. I'm happy with how everything came out. I've attached a ss of a section view of the case. You can see the lip and the chamfer that helps it slide in.
