Case Designing Time!
Now that I am done with the PCB, I opened Fusion 360 and started making the case.

Extruding sides by 18mm:
Creating a sketch for the mounting towers:

Added holes for mounting the pcb to the case
I added 6-7 holes for mounting the PCB to the case since I don't like to hide the PCB beneath a plastic case. I am glad that the PCB work is done, and now I can move on to the case.

Routing time!!!
In this session, I routed the 330 nets(to be precise), and this was sooo sooo fun but a lengthy task. You gotta change layers so many times, take different ways and more

Placed rest of components
After placing all the keys, I placed all the remaining 1N4148 diodes along with the rasp pi pico. It was such a boring and lengthy task to do. But hard work paid off!

Placed all keys on the PCB
In this session, I placed all the keys down to the last 6 millimetres, which was very boring and tiring work. I took 2-3 breaks in this work, but finally did it!

Placing symbols in schematic
Place all the symbols in the schematic according to the 108-key layout. I had several problems with layouts, so many versions, but I finalised the schematic after much thinking and work.
