Ninjapad is a macropad with 9 keys, 1 rotary encoder, and an 0.91 inch OLED display. It uses a custom PCB, 3D printed case, and QMK firmware. OLED features different animations based on keystroke. Initially, I didn’t know I had to solder every component so I ended up assembling and disassembling the case a number of times.

Finished an early version of my case. Next steps will be to add an USB port and some colour!
