HICTOP Circuit Board Cover Box

This is a reshaping of Nvalencia's elegant design from http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1621685 Nvalencia's box was very attractive, but it was too wide to accommodate the position of the Z-axis stop on the pillar according to the assembly instructions from HICTOP. I wrote a few small modules in OpenSCAD to crop and trim an existing stl design, and used this to reshape Nvalencia's design to be a tight horizontal fit around the circuit board. While I was doing this I also fixed the thin-backplate error on the lettering so that it came out with the intended indentation effect. This was my first attempt at modifying an existing stl file using OpenSCAD, and I found it a little easier than I anticipated it being. Print Settings Printer: HICTOP 3DP-11 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.5 x/y, 0.2 z, 1.0 perimeter, 1.0 top/bottom Infill: 20% Custom Section License Note I'd be happy to license my portions of this less restrictively, but the resulting stl follows Nvalencia's license since most of the work was his.
