This PR adds complete 3D printing support for the VS Code KeyPad hardware, providing STL files and documentation to create a professional protective case for the Lilygo H621 device.

What's Added

STL Files (Ready to Print)

  • 3d_models/keypad_case_bottom.stl - Main case body (95×65×18mm) with 2.5mm wall thickness for durability
  • 3d_models/keypad_case_top.stl - Top cover (95×65×3mm) with access ports for USB and controls
  • 3d_models/keypad_display_bezel.stl - Display mounting frame (58×45×2mm) for screen protection

Comprehensive Documentation

  • Complete printing guide (docs/3d_printing/README.md) - Full instructions in Japanese including material recommendations, assembly steps, and troubleshooting
  • Quick start guide (docs/3d_printing/QUICK_START.md) - Fast-track printing checklist for immediate use
  • Technical specifications (docs/3d_printing/TECHNICAL_SPECS.md) - Detailed specs for advanced users and customization
  • Directory README (3d_models/README.md) - File overview and usage instructions

Key Features

  • Compatible with all major 3D printers (PLA/PETG/ABS materials)
  • Professional case design optimized for portability and protection
  • M3 screw mounting system for secure assembly
  • Estimated 80 minutes total print time using ~50g of filament
  • Wall thickness engineered for strength while maintaining printability

Updated Main Documentation

The main README.md has been updated to include the new 3D printing capabilities with quick start instructions and links to detailed documentation.

Design Approach

The case dimensions are based on typical ESP32 development board specifications and the known 2.4" TFT display requirements. The design provides:

  • Protection: Full hardware enclosure with proper clearances
  • Access: Maintains access to all necessary ports and controls
  • Aesthetics: Clean, professional appearance suitable for desktop use
  • Modularity: Three-piece design allows for easy assembly and maintenance

This enhancement transforms the VS Code KeyPad from a development prototype into a production-ready productivity tool that users can confidently build and use.

Fixes #2.
