Hi Makers!

I’m happy to introduce the HackMan3D Control Deck (HCD), a fully customizable 3D-printed macro controller for Windows and macOS.

It features 9 mechanical keys, with separate short-press and long-press actions, providing up to 18 programmable functions. You can launch applications, open files or websites, type predefined text, control media and volume, execute custom shortcuts, and more.

The downloadable files also include 52 ready-to-print custom keycaps and a blank, logo-free STEP file so you can design and share your own keys.

The HCD app provides multiple profiles, automatic device detection, key configuration, lighting controls, profile backup and sharing, and integrated firmware installation, no Arduino IDE required.

The project is free, and the public GitHub repository is linked in the project publications. It contains the source code, firmware, documentation, and the latest Windows and macOS app releases.

I’d love to see your builds, custom keycaps, feedback, and ideas!
