Heya! Cool hackpad, I see that you have the assembled model in the repo. Could you have images of the assembled model in the readme, too? Other than that, your switch holes in the top case need to be 14 by 14 mm for the switches to fit perfectly

hey!
you still haven't added the pcb files!
please add them
also please remove the production files from one the folders, you currently have the production materials in both the pcb and production which is redundant, it should just be in production
if you need help finding the hackerpaddelta.kicadsch, hackerpaddelta.kicadpro, and hackerpaddelta.kicad_pcb let me know and i can help

once you add them let me know so i can approve because everything else looks good to me

Hey!
you're almost there, just that you don't have the right pcb files in your pcb folder, you should have hackerpaddelta.kicadsch, hackerpaddelta.kicadpro, and hackerpaddelta.kicad_pcb in your pcb files folder
please add those, as I won't be able to check your pcb if they're missing!
also, i wish you kept some of the case design from before, they were a nice touch (you don't have to add them back, just a comment from me)

You should use SK6812 Mini-E LEDs specifically for this. Also make sure you include all CAD files in your repo, including .STEP and/or .STL files for both the top and bottom cases. You should also add a full assembly .STEP file showing how all components fit together.
Try to avoid adding texture in the key mounting area, since uneven surfaces can cause the keys to not sit properly. You can design the other parts however you like.
Also check clearances properly after assembling everything. Make sure there is enough space below the top plate, and confirm that the plate thickness is around 1.5 mm so the keys fit correctly.

cool hackpad design, however there are some stuff you need to fix before getting approved
first, you're currently not using the correct leds
see https://blueprint.hackclub.com/hackpad/resources for the correct components (symbol and footprints) you should use, specifically for the led, the sk6812-mini-e leds
also you should have all cad files, including .step and/or .stl for both the top and bottom cases in your github repo
you should also have a full assembly .step where all components are placed together and it shows how everything fits together
you should probably avoid texture within the area where the keys will be inserted as the unevenness will cause the keys to not sit properly, feel free to design the other parts however you want tho!
using the resources tab you should also check clearances once you put things together, and see if you have enough space below the top plate, and also double check if the plate is 1.5mm for the keys to fit

Heya! It's a cool macropad, but right now it's the same as the guide! Please add some originality to it; you can add more switches or other components.
Also, read through the submission guidelines before submitting again
