thingiverse
This OpenSCAD script generates 2-part packaging that connect via simple lips. One part has an internal lip, while the other part has an external lip. Ridges from 3D printing create grooves that secure both halves together. The script can also create square or cylindrical cutouts on any face of the top or bottom half. Four support posts can be added to help position a PCB or similar device. Users can specify fit and tolerances. All features can be turned on/off using control variables. This script simplifies the process of making custom packaging for various electronic devices. Recent versions include options for adding mouse ears, support posts, and controlling layout features. Version 1.6 improvements involve better support for adding parts, changing features, and adjusting layout using control variables. It allows selecting the height of the two halves relative to each other and offers a choice between fully cut or covered cutouts. Optional mouse-ears are also included. Users need to measure the device they want to package, recording dimensions for X, Y, and Z. They should decide on the thickness of the packaging walls and specify the size, shape, and position of each cutout required for each face of the packaging. Open the OpenSCAD script and fill in the necessary variables in the User Variables section. Uncomment or comment lines based on desired fit type and clearance. Add calls to create square or cylindrical cutouts as needed. Finally, save, regenerate the shape, check it looks right, export as STL, print raftless, and enjoy your custom packaging!
