> The switch fits in a 14mm square hole (apart from the protruding wires), which is the same size as a Cherry MX switch, but the total height from the bottom of the switch to the top of the keycap is almost twice as large, about 45 mm vs 25 mm [...] This directly translates to increased keyboard height, so it would be good to cut this down as much as possible. I should be able to lose 2 mm from the wire support at the bottom of the switch, and another 1 or 2 mm in the height of the leaf spring attachment, but there's no way it's going to be as thin as the Cherry MX.
It's a nice concept but the design of the switch doesn't intend this project to replace your keyboard.
A nice design nevertheless :)
