About the CommieCAD PCB
CommieCAD is an open source PCB design by made0fjell0, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 92.5 × 60 mm, with 6 components from 4 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the MOUDLE-SEEEDUINO-XIAO. By type, the board carries 4 switches, 1 IC and 1 connector.
From the project
Custom CAD controller made with the Hackpad kit and tutorial.
I had a need for an assistant to help me with design work in Fusion360 because using a touchpad to clumsily navigate around my parts forever is not very nice. This controller will have the following functions: Orbit/Pan with joystick, zoom with rotary encoder, F, E and C keys for easy hotkey access.
First, you will have to 3d print a two part case.
You also need to print a simple connective piece between the encoder and joystick.
