Assembly
Generating a Design
Setting up the Clojure environment
- Download and install the Clojure runtime
- Download and install the Leiningen project manager
- Download and install OpenSCAD
Generating the design
- Run
lein repl
- Load the file
(load-file "src/dactyl_keyboard/dactyl.clj")
- This will regenerate the
things/*.scad
files - Use OpenSCAD to open a
.scad
file. - Make changes to design, repeat
load-file
, OpenSCAD will watch for changes and rerender. - When done, use OpenSCAD to export STL files
Tips
Printing
Pregenerated STL files are available in the things/ directory.
Wiring
Masks for the flexible PCBs I used are available for the left and right side.
A very rough guide for the brave is here - It will be improved over time (TODO)!
