Solderless RaspberryPi Pico Macro Keypad

This is a solder less macro keyboard using the QMK Firmware.

There are two versions flat and angled. You only need one of the bottom pieces.

You need:

1x RaspberryPi Pico

6x Standart 6mm Micro Switches (There are cheap packs with multiple switches in different length available on Amazon. The longer ones might be useful if you like to add your own key caps)

Compile and flash the firmware

On the Pico hold down the white button and connect it to your Computer.

qmk compile
qmk flash

Assembly 

Follow the Steps in the Image.

Open a text editor and test all the switches.

If a switch is not working reliable or not at all you can bend the pin over to the side of the Pico this should fix it. Or just solder it :P
