Noise Machine (NMSVE) Carrying Case (Hard Shell)

thingiverse

I want to travel with the Noise Machine Straight Vibin' Edition (NMSVE) because it's perfectly sized for musical inspiration on the go! I received it as a gift from a friend, and it's awesome! I wanted a hard shell case so I can toss it in my backpack and not have to worry about the knob or slider getting damaged. I designed this case in a hurry, so the snap-in/release mechanism isn't a seamless operation, but it gets the job done. You will need to use your fingers to pry open the clips at the same time, and then insert the NMSVE. To remove the case, again pry open the clips and let the NMSVE smoothly fall out. It's not obvious from looking at it, but there is a particular orientation to inserting the NMSVE into the case in order to accommodate the power switch and the LED light pole on the side. There are two versions: 1) Type One has a protruding edge on the snap fits so that it's easier to grab with your thumbs 2) Type Two (pictured) is more of a seamless/flush design, and the original intention was that you could "push" the mechanism in thereby releasing the snap fit, but it doesn't work. Instead, just like in Type One, you will need to use your fingers to pull the snap fits open. If anyone wants to improve on this design to fully realize the original design intention, I can share the Fusion360 file. However, the model does work as a decent hard shell case as-is. Print this upside down with supports and you should be good to go!
