What is Snowball44?
Snowball44 is a CNC aluminum gasket mount case designed specifically for the Keyball44 (https://github.com/Yowkees/keyball) - the popular split keyboard with an integrated trackball, designed by @Yowkees (https://x.com/Yowkees).
This project builds on the experience and lessons learned from Corchim (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=121653.0), my previous CNC gasket mount case for the crkbd.
