Added snap-in key holder #78

Closed Kosaro closed 3 years ago

Kosaro commented 3 years ago

Added a variation of the MX key hole type, where the switch firmly snaps into the hole. This way, the switches do not need to be hot glued into place. Very difficult to remove.

The extra space below the nub allows the bottom ledge of the switch to snap into place.

Sorry. Could you please explain more about the difference between MX and MX snap-in (one way)?

See that extra gap below the nub, rather than it going all the way down? That gap is where the little ledge on the key switch snaps into, providing a tighter fit. Its one way because once its in, its not coming out.
