So today i decided to fix the case bacaus ethe clearence between the keycaps and the lid is too small
THE GRAND OVERHAUL
STATUS: COMPLETED
So i completely remad the macropad from scratch and today, I am done with my cad 
It’s simple but its gonna get me to the victory
The only guy with 30 hrs of working on the easiest challenge
The only guy to spend almost 30 hours just to make the easiest thing in the world
So, today i started cading, I got it almost finished
It’s cool ig
After that, i wiil claim my hackpad kit
It’s like telling someone who’s never seen a dog before and tell them to draw it
TS gonna be long,
I don’t like it here
It’s like telling someone who’s lost, and then tell them to do it all over again
So, I retraced because the pcb was too long, the trace was better than last one ans now it’s compact as hell
🥶🥶🥶
No, not done yet
Gng, I’m tired
So, the fact that i underutilized the material had made me went on the computer and redesign everything myself, plus it is almost school time made it even more rush. But whatever, I got the pcb done and other stuff
Ah yes,
I can finally post after it synced up
So, yesterday, i finished my case, but I realized that the kit comes with M3 screw not M2 screw, the fact that they come with the seed instaed of the Waveshare Zero just made me think that My project is kinda underutilised. And the cad ? the pcb? I would have to source everything 😭😭😭😭😭😭 So pls before reviewing and accept it pls let me have one more chance to take full advantage of the material
EH EH
EMERGENCY FIX !!!1111111!!!
So apparently, I got the hotswap socket and the footprint being in the wrong way around so I have to fix it before someone review it. Dw guys, I fixed it, update the repo
Finished the case, update the readme, blah blah blah
Started to design the case:
Omg it’s laggy as hell
bruh, Its half done
Cant even find a way to make the usb port hole
Whatever this devlog is:
so I added .stp file in my pcb and update the github repo before designing my case so it can be more accurate
tryna learn how to 3d design but too complicated
ask my parents for a laptop but they disagree due to some unreasonable reason like: gaming all day, hard to manage. They dont understand me at all
dont do anything much, took a break
Devlog 6:
It’s ready for submit now !
thanks gemini for helping me with the code, and now its done
Devlog 5: my first prototype, though the code isnt finish yet but i built a base
Devlog 4:
i decided to ditch the entire battery system since it is way more complicated than i thought, and there we go finished PCB
Devlog 3:
a lot of problem but i have decide that i am going to use the Waveshare RP2040-Zero, few tired as hell
Devlog 2:
finished schematic
Devlog 1:
ooooh, its going great
