These "handwire guards" are 3d printable isolators for preventing shorts on row/column crossings in a handwired keyboard matrix.

I recommend to print them from a flexible material like TPU. The holes designed for 1 - 1.2mm wire. There are two models: single and double. Use double, if you have a matrix with double the rows (i.e. folded along the row plane).

Usage

Wire the rows first, threading the guards through the long side as before you solder the switches. For the rows push the wire through the top side of the guard. The height lines up with the row side of handwire socket.
