GBxCart RW v1.2b Case

thingiverse

My housing for my GBxCart RW v1.2b can be found at this link: https://shop.insidegadgets.com/product/gbxcart-rw/ The case may fit other variants, but I'm not sure about that. I believe it should fit all variations of the 1.2 hardware and with slight modification, the 1.1 hardware, but it won't likely fit the 1.0 hardware. You can try to prove me wrong if you want. You might need to adjust it slightly for your switch because mine was a bit crooked. I made the hole a bit more generous than necessary. Additionally, I had to trim the pins on the bottom and make them flush so that the bottom would fit properly. I printed the bottom housing as-is, but the top housing upside-down. The bottom housing simply snaps onto the circuit board, while the top housing is attached with hot-glue. I used three globs of glue on the bare spots of the PCB, making sure not to get any on the components. The ideal print height depends on your nozzle size - 0.1 or 0.2 mm works best. Any larger or inbetween sizes might mess up the fit and require customization. The initial layer can be anything if the bottom is printed right-side-up and the top is printed upside-down. I recommend using the file with labels since you can't really see the silkscreen through 1mm of material, but I've also included a file without labels in case you want to do your own thing. Edit: I redrew this model (v2) in Fusion 360 (previously created in Tinkercad) in preparation for a shell for GBxCart 1.3 shells. The fit is the same as the previous version and the print should be pretty much the same as well. All the dimensions are the same, except that the tolerances on the switch hole are tighter. I rounded the corners because I like fillets so the original may print better. If you need a case for GBxCart RW v1.3, check out this link: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4051388
