I've made a similar one, mine was nowhere near as pretty but it had a screw hole to mount it under my desk

I am more of a double sided tape guy, but you are very welcome to remix the model.

I don't trust glue, but I am a fan of non-destructive solutions where I can use them

I like the idea, I might make a new one at some point

Never saw it before, does look similar though. But I guess there are only so many ways of making a thing fit inside another thing through a cutout.

The enclosure for my SV08 arrives today. Looks like my first ABS print is decided. I was trying to figure out how to cleanly/neatly arrange a cable on the dash (from the break controller display) so it doesn't block a couple switches and the stereo. Thanks for the design!

Happy printing!

You can buy something like that on Amazon or AliExpress for a dollar per dozen (even cheaper if buy in bulk).

But what if I need only one and I need it today?

But then 3d printer owners don't feel like their investment has a purpose

Not everything revolves around money. It is a hobby, in the first place.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

I have sunk hundreds into this hobby. But hey, I have a phone case I'm using that costs $0.04 so that's nice. Isn't made by slaves in China so that's a bonus.

Or I could get them even cheaper and within a couple of hours by printing them
