My next build was (probably) going to be a remix of the iris and I wanted to include a joystick so I could use it 4 ways (towards left, highlight words to left; to right, layer; up down, vol controls).
I'd never come across 4/5 way switches before so that's definitely something I'll be looking into! Thanks for sharing!!
What CAD program do you use for designing your cases?
Ah you're right, it's a 5 way switch - forgot the "push" action. I'm using realthunders' branch of FreeCAD - it is really convenient to use compared to the normal release.
Oh I might have to take a look at that, I also use FreeCAD! Damn look at all these things you're introducing me to 😂
