nanoKENBAK-1 Case

<h1>nanoKENBAK-1 Casing</h1> This is a casing for an [nanoKENBAK-1](https://adwaterandstir.com/nanokenbak-1/) replica / emulator of an early home computer. The case will print as-is without supports. The faceplate can be flipped 180 degrees and printed face-down to avoid supports. Silk Silver filament was used for the picture The button caps and button posts mate and require some force to push them together but it depends a lot on the filament you use. Softer filaments may require a bit of adhesive when assembling to make sure the caps don't fall off. I used a harder filament and needed to hold them against the edge of a desk and tap them on with the butt of a screwdriver. These should be printed with a raft. The PDF accompanying is intended to be printed onto a transparency, cut to shape (or a bit smaller) and glued to the faceplate with a clear adhesive, then the squares each cut out to make way to insert the buttons. The LED ports are 3mm and intended to be used with short bits of 3mm light guide. Alternately you could print 3mm diameter rods with transparent or translucent filament
