Major Oversight

when designing the pcb and case i forgot one key aspect about what a keyboard should do, the buttons have to move. See the button and screen sat on the same board with the screen being on top of the button and before hand i just attach wires to the screen to allow for it to have height which in theory should let it move.

unfortunately when i actually tested it out on a protoboard with a mini case, the press felt inconsistent and uneven, and in some cases the screen would fall off the button. This together simply creates an unpleasant experience so i have spent the last week and a half to resolve this issue.

For one the original design seperated a top and bottom half of the case with the bottom housing the pcb and the top essentially just going on top.

the new design extends the top halfs circle to essentially lock the screen in place ensuring it is a consistent down press, in addition ive added 3 places for potential springs to be placed which can create an even more consistent press which does complicate manufacturing. As well as insert after the screen has been in place to further lock the motion of the screen press to be consistent motion.

Below i will list the photos of the new case in addition i will adjust my repo to show the changes
