Re: 3d printable enclosures?
|
I have had OpenScad on my computer since I built my 3D printer 3 years ago (it was part of the software download package for the printer), and I never could make heads or tails of it. It's not very "user friendly", in my opinion.

There is a piece of software called
OpenScad that is free.? With it, you can import a .STL file (which
is what is usually provided on Thingiverse), you can then
'subtract' cylinders (to make round holes) and cubes (to make
rectangular holes).? Then from that produce a new .STL file, run
it through your favorite slicer program, then print it.

Out
of curiosity, does anyone on this group play around with
CAD software? I found a 3D printable box on Thingiverse
( ) that was sized for the
Bitx40 board, but it has plain, un-drilled front and
back panels. Maybe someone here who knows how to use CAD
software could design a 3D printable enclosure that has
a panel that has openings to accommodate the Raduino
display, antenna connector, and other controls/jacks?
I'd do it, but I don't know how to use CAD software...
