Questions

How big is the Custom hackpad PCB?

It measures 61.9 × 97.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Custom hackpad use?

11 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 Custom hackpad KiCad files?

From the vintamex69-cloud/vojta-hackpad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is macropad pcb/custom hackpad.kicad_pcb and its schematic macropad pcb/custom hackpad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Custom hackpad design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask vintamex69-cloud before reusing the design.
