About this model
ENGLISH ======== While I'm waiting some switches to arrive, I decided to prins some for test purpose, but dont found any in thingiverse, only a non functional switch (I took some parts of the code, so there the remix). The body has 14mm square like a Cherry MX Switch, and the top cross is compatible with Cherry MX KeyCaps. If don't exist, made it! After a lot of failures, here one that work. I test it and the force of the spring was too strong, so the main parts are glued together. Apart of the 3d model, you will need 2 more things: - 1 Spring with 5.5mm diameter (adjustable in .scad file) - 3 pines for PCB, protoboards, etc. 0.65mm squared. It's a little tricky to get all working, but it works!. Funny to have a cheap smasheable switch on a one button Leonardo macro keyboard, for example. …
