Video/photo editing keyboard tuned for Davinci Resolve

Why

I edit in Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve, and would like to have something a little smoother than a keyboard and mouse. BD sells the Speed Editor, but it costs US$435, which is kinda insane. speed editor I felt I might as well make my own version of this, so I created this as a largely 1:1 clone of the layout with a custom design

Assembly/Other info

This does not include a case, as I wanted to keep it low to the table, and to keep the bare PCB aesthetic I enjoy. Solder the parts as they fit into the board, then apply some 3M 2229 to the bottom of the board to resuce sliding, and to protect the board/desk.

Questions

How big is the Timeline PCB?

It measures 256.6 × 142.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Timeline use?

119 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Timeline KiCad files?

From the JustAGlitchFL/Timeline repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Timeline/Timeline.kicad_pcb and its schematic Timeline/Timeline.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Timeline design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask JustAGlitchFL before reusing the design.
