DIY Macro Pad Keyboard Build from Scratch with Custom PCB and Mechanical Switches

Amazing video!!! Very well thought out, and as complex a PCB designing, soldering etc. can be, if someone (like me) watches this, they would be encouraged to try such a project.

How did you do the custom keycaps?

This is amazing. I would love to learn all of what you did.

hey cool video. i just want to know after building it, how do you map the keys to the macro keyboard? is there any software?

while priting keycaps using sublimation how much heat you applied is it 250 or more ?

Bro for the love of god get rid of the awful noise reduction. Your videos are legit high quality, but the audio falls behind because you are losing a lot of frequencies with that noise gate.

I really like your color grading and image quality.

Why didn’t you place the RP2040 directly on your PCB? It doesn’t need that much peripheral and imho looks better. I saw also a few acid traps in your layout. But you’re a beginner so I just say: keep going 😊

thsi is such a nice build!

hey men thank u for make a good video..
can u help me. I wondering to know how to make SSD enclosure, what ic i use for that. and minimum components for build that. can u help me for got some reference for that.
Im sorry if my question is out of topic of your content.

Great shots of the soldering ops. As an IPC Trainer I enjoyed your demonstration of skills and proper technique for this level of electronic assembly.

This is a project great. thank

Wow, dude. This is amazing, thank you for sharing!

Fun project. Thanks for sharing your process.

can u tell me how to build a 3d printer from scratch without using a 3d printer

Does anyone know if I will be able to fit Holy Pandas into this build?

This channel is the definition of UNDERRATED

where can we buy ?

one question, how i can change the layer so i can play with the RGB options ?

What an amazing video. Please make more

I really do not understand how to customize the keys, I got to the construction, I have everything ready, but this does not seem to be for a person with little knowledge of programming, so if you do not know how to modify code you can not change the functions of the macros, is not it possible to use this with a program like VIA or VIAL, to be able to define at will the macros without complexity?

Amazing work!
One Question: Which Camera did you use for Octoprint?

Lol I like how you edited that explosion into the part where you plug it in👍🏻
My dad would do the same thing to me when I was a kid. He would poke or pinch me in the side while he was like "zzz zzz zzz"!! I'd jump out of my skin! Yea, he loved that one. Lol, It's a classic.

is there any way to replace the micro controler footprint for an arduino nano footprint?, im using easyeda but i cant edit the files you posted on github, thanks in advance

I'm glad I came across your channel, I just started making Arduino projects, and I believe I could learn a lot from you, you're so talented Masha Allah.

Such an amazing work, Salim! and it turned out so beautiful, I hope your brother loved it.

Foreword: Create a product like this, and the Video community will shower you with eternal admiration!

Backstory: My desire is to use my Sony VX-1000 Camcorder without relying on tapes. The most straightforward approach would be to connect a Sony HVR-MRC1 memory recorder to the camera's Firewire OUT port. Regrettably, these recorders have been out of production for over two decades. Although they can still be found, I am reluctant to spend $400 on outdated technology. This led me to explore alternative options, but it appears that no modern memory recorder with a Firewire port is available anymore.

Consequently, I thought about building my own solution, but I lack the knowledge in electronics, programming, and coding required to do so. The only viable option is to assemble a makeshift solution using existing hardware. During my search, I discovered SCB's (Single-Board Computers). While they don't come with a Firewire port, they can be customized by adding one. My plan would involve installing Windows 7 on the SCB and connecting a mouse, keyboard, and screen to it. Then, I would run an application like WinDV to record the incoming Firewire stream.

Clearly, this setup is far from ideal, as it necessitates carrying around a lot of additional equipment. It hardly compares to the convenience of simply purchasing an HVR-MRC1. However, I remain hopeful that someone reading this might come up with an ingenious solution. Perhaps, by writing a script or firmware, the SCB could be made to operate without the need for Windows 7 and the accompanying hardware. I am not well-versed in this area, but I'm curious if such an approach could be viable.

Thanks.

P.s. Do you mind if I post this in other videos of yours so as many people as possible can see this? Maybe someone can help me out? : )

i like it

this is art bro 🎨

Your brother is a lucky guy

One question how is someone on the internet a thousand times better than the big companies at making stuff like this

Did you do anything to the printed black PLA to smooth it out? The layer lines aren't visible in the video!

Good morning Salim! Could you please give me advice how did you do this perfect labelling on the key caps? Thank you in advance

What a great project! What an amazing video! Congrat man

Can u make it one for me ! Please ?

This is a very impressive channel. Ive watched all 3 videos you have posted thus far and you definitely earned a sub from me. Keep up the great work.

Cmd t, cmd k, f12, cmd r, space cmd term, these macro pads suits an video editor best, or plugin opener for musicians

Just found the channel, nice edits, clean build. Keep it going man!

Whoa I had no idea there was a way to use python with arduino! The constant re-flashing also was a big annoyance for me

This is a fantastic video!

great video! quick question, what schematic and layout app did you use?

Love this video got my sub

Hey! I'm sorry if this has been asked before but where did you get the mx cherry library for Fusion 360s Electronic Drawing. It would save me hella time instead of measuring ever hold lol Great video and thank you!

Discovering this channel is a dream come true for me! So inspiring!

This very quickly is becoming my favorite channel.

Time to test it out.. kaboom! 😂😂

The level of quality in the video is top notch. Seriously

why is ur music so quiet?

I've actually been working on my own design of something like this, except its a Bluetooth arm mounted device with a lipo battery (though I am thinking about maybe changing it to double As

this is just amazing bro
