Creating a Metal Enclosure using LibreCAD.org drawing, output file Autocad 2007 .DXF file

 

Creating a Metal Enclosure? using LibreCAD.org drawing, output file Autocad 2007 .DXF file.

For the moment,Feb 3, I can't upload any files to [email protected] ? Uploading the .DXF file and a README.TXT file would allow some one else to download and modify the CAD file for their needs.

Free Software for Windows / Linux / MAC / FreeBSD??

I made one folder for Metal Boxes that would use a CNC Plasma cutter from a .DXF file and a 2nd folder for Plastic Boxes, that you might use 3D printing to make.

Make, Hack, Modify and share around the world.


I plan to build a rectangle box enclosure with the holes already cut out.?? These boxes I make would be for sale.

I made this test CAD file using? 3/8 inch size holes.? If I could get some assistance in a very short message note, passing the diameter size of the hole back to me.

Then I can modify the drawing to match the parts that would be placed in that hole.?? Like MIC plug connector,? Head Phones connector,? Tuning Rotary hole,

On the back panel,? the power connector, the RF connector to the Antenna.?? Any extra holes for spare switches.

Give me a little hand or point me to the URLs on the web.?? I have the specs for the 16x2 LCD displaly.
 

For the parts that come with the kit (these are actual, measured part diameters - adjust your holes for clearance):

Volume potentiometer: 6.80 mm

Tuning potentiometer: 9.65 mm

Stereo jacks (for mic and headphones): 5.86 mm

Power jack: 12.31 mm

BNC connector: 9.2 mm

Hope this helps!
