I haven't had the time to work on this project recently, but I wanted to share the magnetic interlocking feature of the keyboard. It was quite the challenge to place the magnets with the very small clearance between the bottom of the board and the PCB. After a few redesigns of the case, it seems to work fine. You can see a video of it here
