 ## Ordering Info
 
 - You'll need to order **2× copies of the same PCB**
-- Designed for **AISLER**, but probably compatible with other PCB manufacturers.
-  - On aisler you can simply upload the kicad pcb file directly.

+- 2x Raspberry Pi Pico.
+- 1x Usb micro b cable.
+- 60x Kailh choc v2 switches.
+- 60x 1u cherry mx compatible keycaps.
+- 1x TRRS 3.5mm audio cable.
+- 2x SMD TRRS connectors similar to [this one](https://www.electrokit.com/3.5mm-jack-4-pol-smd). 
+   - Schematic is available on the site so that you find one with the same pinout and dimensions.
+- 60x 1N4148 diodes.
+- 14-22x small round rubber feet (optional, for the bottom of the case).
+- 10x 2×4 mm magnets for holding the chassi together.

+## 3d printing
+Will be updated as soon as i upload the 3d models.

+For the right side:
+- 1x [top dampener](./3d-models/top-dampener.stl)
+- 1x [bot dampener](./3d-models/bot-dampener.stl)
+
+For the left side:
+- 1x [top dampener](./3d-models/top-dampener.stl) **Mirror this piece to make it for the left side**

+## Assembly
+
+### For each side:
+1. Solder the TRRS connector.
+1. Solder the Raspberry Pi Pico.
+1. Solder the diodes.
+1. Put the top dampener in place on top of the PCB.
+1. Solder the switches.
+1. Put the keycaps on the switches.
+   - It should now look [like this](./images/pcb-assembly.jpeg).
+1. [Put on the rubber feet on the bottom of the case (optional)](./images/chassi-base-back.jpeg).
+1. [Super glue the magnets to the bottom chassi](./images/chassi-base.jpeg).
+1. [Place the bot dampener in the bottom chassi](./images/chassi-base-dampener.jpeg).
+1. [Place the PCB assembly on top of the bot dampener](./images/pcb-assembly-in-chassi.jpeg).
+1. [Place the top chassi piece up side down and super glue the magnets in place](./images/chassi-top-cover-backside.jpeg).
+  - **Important:** Make sure that you glue the magnets in the right direction so that they attract each other.
+1. [Place the top chassi piece on top of the PCB assembly](./images/right-side-assembled.jpeg).
