Description
After getting hooked on 3D printing and getting a better overview of FreeCad, I thought it would be good to make a "complete" unit for my (tr)uSDX's so that they are a little more connected.First I made a box for the Nano tuners and then I had to come up with something for the battery and radio. The "original" battery box for the (tr)uSDX had a nice sliding groove so I drew the opposite one on the top of the tuner box so that the battery box can be pushed in and stuck. Also made a holder for the radio so that it does not slide out sideways but must be pushed into its holder. This holder also got a sliding groove so that it is stuck on top of the tuner box.
Recommend that you turn on support when printing the radio holder, it has a small hanging edge that needs support.
(Working on making boxes for other types of mini antenna tuners that will fit into the same slot type)
