ShinGoutetsu Posted December 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2023 made some adjustments, this is an alignment print which will take 11 hours. The case will now use threaded inserts for mounting the xbox board and psu. I've added ribs to strengthen the case. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's some pics of the case with inserts and magnets that hold the lid in place instead of screws. I REALLY want to build this and the more skills and tools I gain the more I like to build things myself instead of just buying them. However, I don't think my 3d printer is big enough and I just didn't want to spend the money on a printer with a big enough bed to print this. Are you able to print one in it's current form, or is it not finished yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you able to print one in it's current form, or is it not finished yet? The first print is in progress. It's for an alignment check though. The full case will be printed after I'm happy that everything lines up. Them the case files will be released. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if it's possible to widen the bed on my Elegoo Neptune 4... it's just BARELY like an inch too narrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it’s built like an ender you can buy the Aluminium square section and essentially cut your own that will give the area then you need a bigger heater bed. The heater beds are fairly generic across the market. Then just get a bigger glass pad or magnetic sheet or what ever you use to match. the printer parameters can be adjusted in Marlin software, so it can be told to expect a bigger bed. Slicer software obvs can be set up to what ever you want. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any way, we could have a version that leaves the spot open completely so we can put an original jewel on? I'd be interested in seeing how that would look. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
