Cherry Mx / Gateron Breakout PCB. Easily Add Cherry Switches to Anything

Cherry switches are almost the best tactile button you could ask for. Mounting them isn't quite as easy as a standard round panel-mount button. This PCB breaks out four keyboard (Cherry/Gateron) switches [buttons] with common ground into a standard 5-pin JST connector similar to arcade joysticks.

With an acrylic overlay, you don’t have to do the routing for the headers. Cut your wood wider to fit the headers, then make the acrylic narrower to cover them up.

Really cool! Now to find something I can use this for..
I bought your macro pad pcb and it was a lot of fun to build. It would be nice to have support for pcb mount/5 pin switches in the future, would make getting them straight much easier 😁

Thanks Andy. I agree, i might put this package back in and remove the 12x12mm mounts.
