Questions
How big is the Microswitch PCB?
It measures 35 × 17 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Microswitch use?
2 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 Microswitch KiCad files?
From the lewfer/BitMakeLab repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kit making/KiCad/microswitch/microswitch.kicad_pcb and its schematic kit making/KiCad/button/button/button.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Microswitch design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask lewfer before reusing the design.
