Ergo Vertical Mouse V2 Left and Right Handed

Ergo Vertical Mouse V2 Left and Right Handed:

After designing my first two mice, I had an idea to create an exceptional ergonomic vertical mouse using the Bambu Lab 002 mouse electronics kit. When Bambu Lab announced a mouse design contest featuring my previous designs, I couldn't resist joining the competition. I made a first in class, truly vertical mouse that is ergonomic for the competition. After posting I saw some things that could be improved and listened to the community input as well. After many more prototypes we have arrived at V2!

V2 Enhancements:
The V2 of this mouse brings significant upgrades in ergonomics, printability, functionality, and usability. It builds on the original design to provide an even better user experience and ensures a smoother printing and assembling process. I can't list all the changes here as they are too many, but the most obvious is moving the scroll wheel back for better ergonomics.

 

Materials Recommendation:
- PLA: Ideal for most parts
- 95A TPU: Perfect for the belts

Design Journey:
This project demanded extensive time and numerous iterations to achieve the optimal design. Designing a vertical mouse for a circuit board originally intended for flat mice presented significant challenges. The journey was incredible, and I'm excited to share the results with you! Here is a photo of some of the iterations done:

Assembly:
Detailed assembly instructions are provided in the attached PDF. While getting all the buttons to function perfectly requires a bit of fine-tuning, the process is straightforward. To help you through the assembly process, check out the video below:
