g305 to g303 Mod V2

myminifactory

This mod will require some intermediate skill and a level of AINTCARE to complete. You WILL NEED THREE M1.65 machine screws - and possibly some M1.63 machine screws (depends on how you want to connect the left and right click switches to the main PCB). You will need to tape or connect the battery leads to a battery (AAA lithium recommended). I have integrated a battery mount that was designed to use 3" velcro straps to hold the battery in place to the top shell - but use what you want. You will need to mount the left and right switches to the main PCB. If you want this mod but don't have the confidence/willingness to undertake it yourself - you can get in contact with me on reddit (u/Nuvolari48) or discord (Burt#3494) and maybe we can work something out. Anyways, Story time for those that like it: When I made my V1 mod I wanted it to be a simple lower shell conversion. All you need is a screwdriver for that mod. I was not as satisfied with the quality of that mod and made a few changes to it due to my inexperience in 3d modeling. Along my quest for quality and lightness I encountered another person (Tailslol) making a top shell which integrated the left and right mouse buttons to the rear cover - which meant the mid section of the mouse could be removed. I reworked how that top section attached to the lower shell and went down a rabbit hole of revisions. Ultimately one of my buddies asked for a shell without the comfort groove/indent on the right side - and I realized that my novice design skills on my initial model had resulted in a lopsided and uncentered shell (which was the reason for the indent. It dug into my pinky finger so the indent "fixed" that). I still haven't sent him one yet. Eventually I decided that the only way for this to really work was to redesign it from the ground up again. A bottle of scotch and a lot of unnecessarily sleepless nights later - and this thing was the result. Its not as light as I have been able to make but its still light. With a AAA lithium (Energizer if you care) battery this mouse weighs in at 64g. All of the parts in this file as I have printed them with 100% infill weigh 37g - and they feel very sturdy. I might make an ultralight version with all the holes and stuff - and add the files here. If you want it - bug me about it. Weight: 64g functional, 37g shell Dimensions: 72.5mm wide, 114.8mm long, 34mm tall
