wow, nicely done! Looks really well thought out. Are you going to leave it white?
Is it costly to get something prototyped with 3d printing? I keep meaning to look into it.
This cost about $60 plus shipping for just the printed parts.I'm trying to figure out a good way to offer it to modders at cost. However as of right now I don't have a way to limit the purchase qty off of shapeways. I know from the screen cradles that people are purchasing them in large enough quantities that they are using them in mods for resale. Which doesn't really bother me on the screen cradles. But it would on the mod itself.
Now that looks sweet, nice size for a dual 18650 mod. That will look really awesome once it's got a proper coating. Sure would like one for myself. I have also been looking for contacts like those for weeks and have had no luck...
Thanks for all the praise!!!
Cool So you designed the button plungers as well? and using the on board tacts
Thanks for all the praise!!!Here is what I'm getting after some sanding. It now feels very velvety along with dirty. From what I have read they say scrubing with hot water and dish soap or washing in the dishwasher is the best way to clean it. But I have a feeling it's never going to be clean white again.I picked up some black Rit and will try that with some vinegar after I do some more sanding. I'm starting to wonder if polished white strong and flexible would be a better way to go, as I believe they used a tumbling process to create a smooth finish. Then it could be dyed or painted without much if any sanding.
I tried re dyeing it and even left it soaking overnight and it still didn't take along the edges. I'm going to try some leather dye and see how that works. I have used it before when making concealed carry holsters and it seems to dye anything it comes in contact with.
Wow-WeeIs there NO limit to you talent?
Umm, wow! That is Purdy even in white. That's actually perfect size for a mod in my book. Ever thought of renting or purchasing your own 3 printer? Not sure it would be cost effective for limited run stuff but unsure of how pricey they are.
