This is a switch pad you can 3d print for mechanical keyboards.
They are typically made of PORON. However, I wanted to give TPU a try.Scale the thickness of the pad in your slicer to the thickness you desire.
However make sure the thickness is a multiple of your layer height
(unless using variable layer height.)
For a 0.2mm layer height possible heights might be 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, etc.
My first layer is printed at a line width of .62 on a 0.4mm nozzle.
Normal poron pads seem to be a thickness of 0.5mm.

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!
Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
