      while that would probably work on it's own there are two (sort of 3) reasons that I doubt it'd work smoothly with what he has
      1 : he already has majorly skeletonized the design. Topology optimization is typicailly given a frame-body shape to start with and cuts away material, does a simulation of various loads, cuts away or re-adds more material, lather rinse and repeat. Since already has skeletonized it to the max though it wouldn't have as much freedom and likely couldn't make much progress
      2 : the body of the mouse is also a mechanical component, bending to actuate the switches. While this could likely be modeled somewhat via top. opt. the body of the mouse *_also_* affecting the characteristics of the click could cause issues
      3 : I think the far bigger optimization is integrating 3 dimensional support structures. As it stands the mouse is straight walled which, while simple, isn't nearly as stiff as it could be. You could cut away a good bit more of the material and keep the same stiffness if you used angled internal struts to support the walls and stop them from bending inwards directly rather than just relying on material stiffness. In theory I think topology optimization *_could_* do this, but I've rarely seen it ever used in 3 dimensions like that, I'd wager just because it increases the mathematical complexity significantly. Working in 3 dimensions is quite literally infinitely harder than working in two, and I imagine that practically speaking it's just not really viable for most projects compared to designing the struts by hand.

    Saying "I won't release it because I don't think you can print it" is such a cop out. There are plenty of people who will be capable of printing it to a standard they are happy with, or perhaps even exceeding what you're getting 3rd party. If you want to monitize it just say so and do so. This is the same logic apple uses for anti right to repair rhetoric.

      Also, this is SLS nylon. It's the cheapest printing technology and material you can get on any additive manufacturing supplier. It's good quality, yes, but also cheap. Seeing the size and material use of this, I estimate the cost in QTY 1 to be around 8-10$. Nothing a hobbyist can't afford.

    Add radii to the sharp edges to make the part more print friendly. 3D printers often have difficulty with sharp edges. This will also make the part more ergonomic. Also add fillets to internal sharp corners that will be flexed, as these are potential points of failure.

      The main advantage 3D printing offers is strengh by structure which would not be possible with injection molding or machining. You should utilize that in your design. Perhabs review some mousewheel options, it's a little bit high above the trigger buttons. Really nice start though.

      Believe me, before I moved to a fingertip mouse, I didn’t want to leave side buttons. But once you try a mouse like this, you will experience first hand why most true finger tip mice have no side buttons. I’ve even tried replicating pressing the side buttons with my pcbr 8k and you lose control and your grip the second you life your thumb off. Of course there’s the occasional web browsing which I could see it being useful in that regard but in games, which most mice like this prioritize performance over versatility, it negatively affects your performance.

All he'd need to do is adjust the side grips to have a 45degree tilt at the front and you can literally print this mouse standing up on it's face without a single support. Or in parts. Yes casting is stronger but for something like this, it's irrelevant. Especially since it'd be about $2 in filament AT MOST and layer weaknesses could be worked out in the design.

    This is a very cool project. I love my M2K but I also wondered about improving the grip by constructing some kind of chassis around it - kinda like wings for thumb and pinky finger, so I can relax/open my hand more while still holding/leading the mouse. I still prefer cabled mice (with a cable bungee) for multiple reasons (never goes empty, physical uninterruptable connection, no interference with other devices, minimum latency possible without much processing of an electromagnetic signal). But I admire the love to detail you're putting into your work. Big Kudos/Respect, Chapeau/Congratz to your milestone and good luck for the future!

    This is a fantastic idea and very well delivered. I kind of hoped there would be a wider option, as my hands are quite big and my fingertip grip makes me having to squish my fingers together a lot. The best option so far has been the MM720, because it has a wider profile with the additional finger rest.

    This is super cool! The only thing I'd say is that you should include the files with purchase of the kit or make it a separate purchase. Perhaps provide sourcing info too.
    I only say that because over time people will likely need/want to replace their shells and since you said you aren't planning to support the original design, having those files will let people fix their stuff rather than waste it.
    Though I understand the reason why you wouldn't want to as well. Perhaps down the road when newer iterations coke out you can release old ones as a sort of compromise.

    Props man, I love your work! Good to hear you revised for less pre-travel. Have you had any unintentional mouse scrolling, even just one notch? That’s my main issue as a (sloppy yet legit) bhopper. I love how there’s a gap between the mouse buttons and the wheel on zowie mice, harder to unintentionally scroll. Would be cool to see a similar guard (probably vertical oriented walls instead of the horizontal spacing) making it harder to scroll without intent. Keep it up! 8000Hz bubbles in the back of my mind.
