Big Switch Pad

Just an idea I had for a macro pad. I had all the parts available(except the diodes) and just designed a case to house everything. I had some issues with the screw holes lining up perfectly and I had to take a file to the switch plate. Much respect to anyone that hand wires a 100+key keyboard.

12/6/2018 Added qmk code and .hex file to files: bigswitchpad_qmk.zip. Added .step file.
If you are new to QMK, this guide is very helpfulhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HLV6mUxNnU&t=9s

12/1/2018: adjusted switch plate to .2 clearance on all sides. I forgot I had left it at .39, but that was because I had such severe elephants foot on my print that it actually filled the gap for me.

M3x8 screws.

Double sided mounting tape or hot glue of your choice for securing neopixel and arduino.
