Hello,

 

I was wondering if anyone knows how to make a 6 key macro keyboard with an Arduino micro.

 

If you do know please let me know how you do it.

Yes, shouldn't be too hard. You'll need a some key switches, wire, diodes and something to mount the switches in.

 

Here's how to wire the key matrix http://wiki.geekhack.org/index.php?title=Hard-Wiring_How-To and http://www.jasonamyers.com/2015/building-a-keyboard-part-2/

 

Then get a pro-micro controller basically the same thing as an Arduino https://1upkeyboards.com/pro-micro-with-pins.html

 

Use QMK to program it. It's an open source keyboard firmware. http://qmk.fm/
