Rishi's Hackpad
My hackpad I'm making to learn the basics of KiCAD and PCB Creation. The basis of this PCB is to be simplistic and calming. The firmware I have attached to the Github is supposed to switch tabs and workspaces on my laptop, making it easier to manage my ongoing tasks and be more productive! It is a custom macropad (one of the projects defined to be tier 4). Thanks to the help of the Hack Club reviewers I was able to find a better PCB vendor to bring the cost down to ~$16!

Received everything!!
Now the plan is to fix the CAD, and solder everything while the case is printing :)
I’ll probably do it this weekend!!!
The CAD needs to be modified to the PCB’s new size because I had to fix some things before sending it to JLCPCB.

Hi, this is still really expensive for a MacroPad PCB is there anyway you can use a different PCB manufacturer such as JLCPCB instead for lower costs?

We provide a kit with all of the parts, you only need to upload cart screenshots of your PCB cart page.
