Possible FAQ
- The switch hole snaps a bit when i force it in
it works better bcus you have more friction holding it in, also i have spent enough time so idrc.
- Will you add more labelled cases?
yeah nah, unless you want me to make some more then just add it as an issue on github.
- It doesn't fit the pieces i have/ fix it
i am finally free, go check arcturus or make a fork of this and do it yourself.
Tips for customising the case for your parts
- leave an extra 2 millimetres on width and one extra on height for ports and switches (Trust).
- eyeball a gap for boards or batteries
- if you don't have calipers for measuring you can do this instead:
- go into blender and make a cube, export it into cura and then use the sizing controls along with a millimetre ruler to make the shape of your component
- When done export out of cura by doing File>Export> and then set it as a wavefront .obj file
- put that into your 3d modelling software of choice, if you're using blender search up boolean tutorials online
- Good luck, this process is going to SUCK, it took me 3+ days as of writing this and my imus haven't arrived and i'm hoping that i dont have to reprint anything bcus i've already wasted a third of a roll of filament.
