### day 3 today i wanted to create custom keycaps for my hackpad and have paws on top of it. i started with onshape and added it on the document i made yesterday. i followed a guide from highway and also a youtube video i found that customizes a keycap using onshape. it was going great for a while and i was adding so much filleting and shaping but i didn't realize that i should've made the keycap hollow first and do the underneath thingy.  ending, i had to revert some changes to shell the keycap. now i'm struggling to accurately create the underneath thing on the caps with the right measurements and constraints. i don't know how to do it yet so i decided to give up and stop recording and study more about constraints in onshape offscreen.

### day 2.1 hi i forgot to include my session of me and axe cadding the enclosure of my hackpad so i have included it here! anyway this journal contains - creating the case with axe - journaling timelapse - adding more details and touches on the case ### added a lot more details on the case here i tried to make the case more pretty and also tried to chamfer most the edges to make it look more polished. i had problems with extruding because i kinda don't know what i was doing and not including the merge scope lol. but i was able to figure it out and this practice made me understand onshape more look at my keycat now!

### day 2 hellooooo, i'm 4hrs in and i plan to reach 10hrs today and get my invitation :)) **today i planned to ** - fix my pcb - add all the silkscreen - create a casing for my hackpad (fusion) - create a casing with @axe part 2 (onshape) #### 1. fixing my pcb if you remember from my last journal, i did something wrong and accidentally put the microcontroller at the back. also i thought having the leds at the back was a mistake lol. but i quickly asked axe about it and said we're fine. sooo, i just flipped the microcontroller and rerouted the pcb and we are done :DD  #### 2. add silkscreen art i had so so much fun with doing this. i really like how it turned out and it took me a bit of time to draw cats to add on my hackpad. also i decided to name it "keycat" lol :3. yeah this section was more on converting an image to bitmap then measuring the board then pasting it and repeat for all.  #### 3. creating a casing using fusion spoiler: it did not end well.. CADDING IS GONNA BE THE DEATH OF ME PLS. i tried to follow the tutorial once again in hackpad for a second time. i thought i can do this better since i just watched a tutorial about it yesterday but i was so wrong dude. i tried to follow the tutorial but i was always messing up or not knowing how to do what the tutorial is asking me to do. i think i might just be a bit too dumb for this. after a while of stressing out and realizing that this is going nowhere, i ranted to @axe and he told me that he will help me with onshape (THANK U AXE). look at this monstrosity lol  #### create a casing with @axe part 2 (onshape) me and axe huddled and he taught me a lot on how to make a case on onshape. HE IS SUCH A SAVIOR TYYYY. he taught me how to use onshape and we started with exporting my pcb (which i didn't know was an option????) then we created the base. helped me how to extrude it and how to add walls. he then helped me how to import the dxf file and create a plate from that. we also tried adding the cat ears but i was messing it up so we skipped it for a bit. we made the cover and added more holes on it and on the plate. then he joined my onshape and he found the problem why i wasn't able to extrude the ears (lmao i was extruding the extrude i think HDSHDSFJH). then we fixed it and added a keychain hole. TADAAAAA, i'm very proud of it and i'm so thankful for axe for helping me :DDD
