Raspberry Pico Macro Pad

thingiverse

If you are looking to build a macropad with 9 mechanical switches and a raspberry pi pico inside this is the case you need. The design is a remix of VOID9 Macropad (based on the pro micro) and the [Pico Armour](https://core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/3d-printable-case-for-raspberry-pi-pico.html) case. I've printed it myself and it fits perfectly, details for this build, instructions on how to set up the Pi Pico and the code itself are available from my blog: [http://blog.4dcu.be/diy/2021/04/05/Macropad.html](http://blog.4dcu.be/diy/2021/04/05/Macropad.html) More recently I've also programmed it as a MIDI device, if that is something you want to play with check out [this post](http://blog.4dcu.be/diy/2021/05/20/MIDIpad.html) Other items required: * 9x Mechanical switch (tested with Gateron and Kailh) * 9x 1.8 mm Led (optional) * 9x 82 Ohm Resistor (optional) * a set of suited keycaps (e.g. numerical keys) * 1x Raspberry Pi Pico, with CircuitPython * 4x M3 bolt (1 cm) * Wire * Soldering equipment: Iron, solder and a third-hand tool * Hot Glue Gun
