Adafruit MacroPad enclosure kit:
- 1 x Adafruit MacroPad bottom plate
- 1 x 3x4 Mechanical keyboard plate
- 1 x D-Shaft Skirted Rubber Knob (Same as used in https://www.adafruit.com/product/377)
- 4 x M3 5mm machine screw
- 4 x Rubber feet
Each of the 12 sockets can accept a Cherry MX-compatible key switch. No soldering required, just snap the keys in!
Dress up your Adafruit Macropad with PaintYourDragon's fabulous decorative silkscreen enclosure and hardware kit. You get the two custom PCBs that are cut to act as a protective bottom plate and a mechanically-stabilizing keyboard plate.
Use the included M3 screws to attach the bottom plate - it's symmetric so you can decide which side you'd like to have visible. Stick the rubber feet on the bottom to protect your desk from scratches. Fit the 12 keys you'd like to install into the keyplate, they'll snap in solidly and let you plug in all the keys at once. Finally, fit the D-shaft knob onto the encoder.
Lookin' good and ready to keeb!
