DSO150 Oscilloscope Case with LiPo Battery

The DSO150 is a great small form factor oscilloscope marketed as being portable. This would be great except for one thing. Most versions are sold with no battery and require you to use an external 9V. In my experience your average 9V doesn't last very long and unless you buy one of those expensive rechargeable ones they're also a waste of materials. There are a few cases available on Thingiverse already but none of them were really what I wanted so I decided to design one myself. This one is designed to take a rechargeable LiPo battery pack. I originally used the old battery out of my LG G6 which was slowly losing its charge faster and faster but I later moved on to using a 5000mAh battery. I used a USB-C TP4056 to charge the battery and an MT3608 boost converter to step the 3.7V up to 9V. I used M2.5x30mm countersunk bolts and cut them short if necessary. Later I may work on a stand for it so that it rests at a slight angle and I also would like to add a charging light hole. In the meantime if you want a slight angle just unscrew the top bolts 0.5cm.
