Advanced Ultimate Box Maker
Description
This is an Advanced Version of the "Customizable revised Ultimate Box Maker" of jbebel. Some cool design features were added which are necessary to realize a project of a mobile Powersupply. Because thingiverse does not support directories files are all in one directory and makes it a little bit confusing. Please look for more details of this adv. version and the example project at https://github.com/M-oster/Advanced-Ultimate-Box-Maker There are more detailed explanations. Sources used in this advanced version: * The original design was made by “Ultimate Box Maker” `from Heartman https//www.thingiverse.com/thing:1264391 and http://heartygfx.blogspot.com * Great improvement to a PCB-based construction was made with the “Customizable revised Ultimate Box Maker” from jbebel https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2938921 and https://github.com/jbebel/Ultimate-Box-Maker. * The integration of a fan-guard was inspired by the “Customizable Fan Grill Cover” from mightynozzle https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2802474 * use of the Library “BOSL2” from https://github.com/revarbat/BOSL2/ * use of the Library “NopSCADlib” from https://github.com/nophead/NopSCADlib/ ## Requirements to download 1. OpenSCAD, download it from here: https://www.openscad.org/downloads.html 2. The library “BOSL2” from https://github.com/revarbat/BOSL2/ 3. The library “NopSCADlib” from https://github.com/nophead/NopSCADlib 4. The actually “Advanced ultimate Box Maker” from here or from https://github.com/M-oster/Advanced-Ultimate-Box-Maker ## Installation * run the downloaded OpenSCAD-file and install the exe. * unpack the zip-file from BOSL2-library into the appropriate lib-directory (My Documents\OpenSCAD\libraries) * do the same with library-file “NopSCADlib” * The “Advanced ultimate Box Maker” from https://github.com/M-oster/Advanced-Ultimate-Box-Maker * Unpack the zip-file into the directory "My Documents\OpenSCAD" so that all files are in the sub-directory "Advanced-Ultimate-Box-Maker". ## Added additional Features * Allows to integrate the electronic parts of the NopSCADlib * Choice of different case feet (Hole, integrated feet, Rubber feet, Foldable feet) * Choice of different threaded inserts for fixation tabs * Choice of different kind of PCB-feet (inserts, pillars, spacers) * Holes with a recess for front- or backpanel * Longholes for front- or backpanel * Customizable fan-guard for the backpanel * a lot of fan-sizes are integrated and their correct screw-distance is autom. choosen. * Ledges on both upper edges of the box shells for better stabilization * Allows to create extra holes in the bottom shell * Choose predefined textfont for paneltext * Frequent remarks added in the code and a lot of debug outputs can be activted Run OpenSCAD and open the main file "Advanced-Ultimate-Box-Maker-main.scad" press F5 for compile and check that there is no error. A reason for errors can be missing lib-files in the lib directory of OpenSCAD. Then open the customizer section on the right side and adpat the box options to your needs. Because the customizer is rather restricted, the hole- and text-parameters must be changed in the code. There is a feature request #3817 for OpenSCAD to let customizer accept nested arrays. But that can take time...
