Slim 6 Key Macro Keypad

Description

###6-Key super slim Macro KeyPad ####Info: All the newest files - including STL, FreeCAD and STEP - can be found at my new home: https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/68769-slim-6-key-macro-keypad ###Summary This small Macro Keyboard is my first dive into the DIY keyboards hobby. I wanted to have some extra keys next to my 3Dconnexion SpaceMouse to have some ofte-used CAD shortcuts at hand. The main body is only 9mm thick. The switches sit in a recess to get the key caps even closer to the table. There's an Arduino Micro (Atmega 32U4) in it which reads the button matrix (2 columns, 3 rows). The 6 keys just send CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+F1 to F6 to the PC. A small AutoHotkey script converts it to the hotkeys I need at the time. So those can be different for SolidWorks, FreeCAD, Firefox, Windows, … No flashing of QMK software needed. The Arduino sketch and AutoHotkey script will be uploaded only if there's enough interest. These are the key caps and here's the switches. I use white (clicky) ones at home and brown (tactile) at the office.
