Fantastic work on the 3D printed case! I’m really impressed with your detailed craftsmanship and the practical design you've created. It's clear you have a deep understanding of both the creative and technical aspects of your projects. I appreciate the effort you put into making these tutorials and sharing your knowledge. Looking forward to seeing more of your innovations. Keep up the great work! Just got the video randomly suggested, I like it!
Thank you very much for your feedback. I am just messing around with some ideas. There are people out there with better skills that would get this done in an blink of an eye and I am fully aware of that. Still, will try to push this project as far as I can and see where it goes. So totally expect more videos on this.
You can add 3d printed threaded holes to the enclosure itself, and either have the bottom be slightly thicker, or have standoffs mounting posts(if you want to keep the bottom thin, but increase overall height). I'm not sure what cad software you are using, but freecad has a fasteners plugin that has nearly all screws/fasteners available. From this, its very easy to use a boolean modifier to give yourself threads where needed. This way you dont need to use a nut/cut the bolt to be flush/ or worry about exposed ungrounded metal(NEC)
Thank you very much for you highly detailed advice. I am thinking of moving the design to FreeCAD once I figure out what is the final "product". I kinda put it together in a rushed way in TinkerCAD to just see where can I go and since this is not a complex part I did not feel like FreeCADing it (if that is a word). To attach the lid I am using bolts and nuts but I never have demonstrated it on any of my videos I think. This DIY method of closing the enclosure with TPU as the o-ring does work like a charm for its intended purpose. I am not trying to design an industrial grade enclosure that needs to survive the harsh environment of an oil rig that is working 24/7 in the middle of an ocean. All I want is something that can manage a basement or attic where the conditions are not ideas but within levels of sanity :) I will have a look at the plugin once I decide to FreeCAD it. Thank you again
