Digital Memory device holder

thingiverse

The original design by iomaa was inspirational. Unfortunately, its STLs took overnight to load into Sketchup. Although they were versatile to the extreme, I did not need all of of their built-in utility, i.e., it was too complicated for my needs. All those µSD slots built into each USB/memory card location were, IMHO, unnecessary. The plethora of radiused edges are what Sketchup seemed to bog down upon. So, what do we do about that? We DIY, of course. The intra-USB spacing on these assemblies has been widened slightly to 5.3mm to accommodate a few slightly wider than usual USB devices that simply would not fit side-by-side with other USB devices in iomaa's design without incurring an empty USB slot penalty. I've included an STL for that USB slot. Also, I've added several common memory card width options like SDHC, Memory Stick DUO adapter, µSD, and µSD adapter. These are separate STLs in the Thingifiles area if you want to use them to 'roll yer own'. If you do want to roll yer own I highly recommend the Wiki article [Comparison of memory cards] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_memory_cards) where you can find good dimensional info on many memory cards all in one place. For these holders, one slot size can accommodate many different memory devices that share the same physical size attributes. There are two full "Assembly" files in the Thingifiles area. One with a flat, ramped (5) µSD card holder and another *slightly more user friendly* curved (5) µSD card holder. And about all those smooth, radiused curves in the original iomaa Thingi, replaced them with simple one-faced bevels. Same function, just simpler.
