How can I make it myself

Great question! Go look in the github releases for the latest tag There you should find the downloads for the PCB production files (aka gerbers) And the STL's for the case parts if you want that too. (you may need to download the source code)

How to assemble

For any help assembling this macropad refer to the build guide.

Questions

How big is the Sliders PCB?

It measures 103.9 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Sliders use?

10 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 Sliders KiCad files?

From the lucid-void/Macro32 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/_Sliders/sliders/sliders.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/_Sliders/sliders/sliders.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Sliders design in my own project?

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