So I'm putting together an Atomic and thought I would post a build log for some feedback.
I have the switches in the plate and it's all hand wired to the teensy. Initial tests showed no faults so I'm pretty happy about that. Now I'm working on designing my case.
I'm still VERY new to CAD so this is a project for me to learn on. I still need to figure out the USB port placement. I ordered M2 heat sets that I can put in the standoffs to give me nice solid threads to screw the plate to. I'm also debating splitting the case in half, right up the center, at least in the early prints for prototyping.

My printer is currently running and printing out the complete right half, left half will be later.
Here is an album of the prototype case end:

I decided to print the 2 halves today and I'm really pleased with the result, I have a few things to fix, the main one being that I fat fingered one of the post measurements but luckily it doesn't hit a switch so it's actually ok, I'm just one screw down.
