attempting to handwire a keyboard using whatever parts i have laying around... i have yet to config and flash qmk firmware to the controller so we shall see if it is at least functional.
so far, this unimpressive macropad has got me learning so many skills. i’ve been using fusion 360 for years but have never sliced and printed my own models… imagine that! i’m also learning how to solder but that should be evident enough from the very ugly joints pictured. my previous soldering projects have all been pcb & thruhole components so this was more of a struggle than it needed to be. i also tried using enameled copper wire but none of the solder stuck. i had enough frustration at that point so i opted for the alternative. perhaps i’ll try again some other day.
