Customizable Enclosure / Housing OpenSCAD Library

thingiverse

About 3D-FlexCase is a user-friendly, customizable OpenSCAD library designed for simple creation of electronic component housings or enclosures. You can easily design your own PCBs, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP6288, and ESP32 cases. The idea behind 3D-FlexCase is to create a basic housing that can be parameterized, then add specific extensions such as brackets, lead-throughs, and more. Requirements ### BOSL Library This project relies on the [BOSL library](https://github.com/revarbat/BOSL). To use 3D-FlexCase, you need to install the BOSL library as described in their installation guide: https://github.com/revarbat/BOSL#installation. ### Screws For securing the cover on the tray, we recommend using screws with a diameter of 4mm and a length of either 20mm or 25mm. Flathead screws work best for this purpose. Installation 1. Download the .zip file from [github.com](https://github.com/whatis777/3d-flexcase) and extract its contents. 2. Rename the directory `3d-flexcase-master` to `3d-flexcase`. 3. Copy the `3d-flexcase` directory to your system's OpenSCAD library folder: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_User_Manual/Libraries 4. Restart OpenSCAD. Usage Here is a simple example of how to use 3D-FlexCase in your OpenSCAD project: ```scad use <3d-flexcase/FlexCase-Housing.scad> $fn = 40; // Customize parameters enclosureWidth = 80; enclusureLength = 120; enclusureHeightTray = 30; enclusureHeightCover = 3; coverSleeveOverlap = 4.0; hullThickness = 2; cornerRadius = 2.5; screwDiameter = 4; // The cover of the housing: translate([enclosureWidth / 2 + 10, 0, (enclusureHeightCover + coverSleeveOverlap/2)]) cover(enclosureWidth, enclusureLength, enclusureHeightCover,coverSleeveOverlap, hullThickness, cornerRadius, screwDiameter); // The tray of the housing: translate([-enclosureWidth / 2 -10, 0, enclusureHeightTray/2]) tray(enclosureWidth, enclusureLength, enclusureHeightTray, hullThickness, cornerRadius, screwDiameter); ``` You can then extend or modify the housing to suit your needs by adding mounts or brackets for PCBs, cable lead-throughs, and more.
