Motorola Talkabout 250 Antenna

thingiverse

Designed up this Antenna up as Motorola never made replacements that can be purchased for the Talkabout 250. I found that I really like the flexibility of the siraya tech tenacious resin straight up. I played around with a mix of the tenacious resin and the siraya blu in a 50/50 mix but it was still brittle. 100% Tenacious seems perfect. I have included the original STL that has not been hollowed out as well as the Hollowed-out STL in a 1.10mm offset in Meshmixer which is just about right without causing holes in the print. If you follow up with the use of a 19/64 drill bit post-cure to clean out the internal space for the wire antenna, then the fit should be close to perfect. Printing: I have had the best luck printing just slightly off of horizontal as pictured. Printing vertically was okay but I just could not get it to clean up well after supporting the end. I could probably get it right if I played around with it a bit more.
