Ferris Sweep v2 Case
This is a remix of Bubbleology's Ferris Sweep v2 Case. It is a combination of some of the model files which Bubbleology has made avaialble. Notably: 10mm bumpons, no PCB breakout recesses, and with a TRRS breakout.
This remix includes the following changes:
- Holes for attaching the PCB to this case have been widened to accept heat set threaded inserts. M2 x 5mm hardware is still used.
- Thes holes now extend through the body of the case so that a threaded insert can be fully set.
- The depth of the "floor" of the case has increased.
Printing
I printed using PLA at the manufacturer's recommended temp of 220°.
- 25% infill
- 1.5 wall thickness
- No supports
- Bridge - probaby not necessary 🤷♂️
- Mirror for right side
Hardware
- 14 x 10mm rubber bumpers (3/8 inch)
- 8 x M2 5mm bolts (6mm is probably ok but untested)
- 8 x M2 heat set threaded insert
- ~2mm thick foam
Assembly
Place the printed case on something flat, sturdy, and heat resistant. Use a soldering iron to set threaded inserts into each hole, using little to no force to allow the brass insert to push all the way through and contact the work surface.
Cut 2mm foam to same shape as PCB, then use 5mm hardware to attach PCB to case with the foam as a gasket.
Refer to Bubbleology's original instrcutions for more details.
Pictures
I haven't finished this build yet, but will add photos once it's done (along with any needed updates).
