Capactive sensing (EC) pcb for Le Chiffre keyboard

Capacitive sensing (aka Topre) keyboard in Le Chiffre layout

Recommended plate material is 1.2mm steel. Plate files are in the expected physical dimensions. No kerf adjustments have been applied. The dxf files have been used successfully with SendCutSend and LaserBoost. JLCPCB is not recommnded for the plates without further testing to adapt to their milling process.
