2021-06-12 (Sa) Wearable Macro Keyboard BackOfTheHand BotH Platform model V6

My new model would be drastically simpler than the runaway monster my old one became. At least to start. I saved a new copy of my OpenSCAD program and deleted all the unnecessary code, which was most of it. Next, I created a cavity that would ensure a mechanical keyswitch would fit based on the manufacturer's dimensions. Funny enough, Cherry only gave dimensions in Imperial units. The updated platform would have two sections, one that touched my hand on the back of the palm (metacarpals), and the other would hover over my fingers (proximal phalanges) and support the keyswitches. On the palm section, I added a couple of sockets for an Apple Watch. The finger area received pushbutton holes. My model is larger than the previous one and will take six hours to print.
