I finished with the case! I found the 3d models for the parts I was using online and then told KiCaad to use those models, exported the PCB, and imported it into Fusion360 where I spent the next hour making sure everything was aligned and had enough room to fit. I had to redo the hole I made previously for the rotary encoder and make the walls thinner to fit the PCB

OH SHOOT I FORGOT I WAS SUPPOSED TO DO DEV LOGS NOOOOOO.
uhh, I guess I’ll update you guys now. I went through several iterations for my case. At first, it was very simple, but now it’s a proper box with three layers and a hole for the rotary encoder.
I had trouble writing up the schematic so I asked for help in the #hardware channel in the Slack. I also looked up the pin layout for the microcontroller to make sure that the pins I was using were fine.
