Grouped-Mando_Electro_Micro_Binoculars_ver1-Grouped

thingiverse

This thing was made with Tinkercad. Some people have had problems printing all the parts at once so this is a grouped version of my Mando Bino Kit. There are three .stl files, the main file is the body, and there are separate files for the end caps and small parts. This model is my own design for an alternative Star Wars Electronic Binocular kit that's smaller than the normal electronic binocular kit, with most of the greebles being static. When built, this model measures 119.67mm wide, 176.56mm from front to back, and 69mm tall. The front (objective lens) is designed so that you can add a piece of acrylic or glass before gluing it in place, while the ocular lens is simply a recessed square cutout for adding a backlit screen. The inside is hollow except for a center support, and the front and back end caps screw on to let you add a battery - just unscrew one end to change out the battery. When I built my binos, I discovered that there was quite a bit of sanding needed to get all the parts to fit together properly, so I used Velcro inside to hold the battery in place. I drilled out a hole on the thumb-rest on the underside and added a push button on/off switch to illuminate the ocular lens screen LEDs and the other two LEDs. I also added two LEDs - one on the front and one on the top knob. Feel free to tinker with the model and come up with your own ideas. NOTE: I did not make lanyard loops on the model, but I used two small D-ring picture hangers at each screw point on the back plate and added a leather lanyard. Share, print, and tinker as you wish and enjoy.
