Description

I've recently bought a kinect for the xbox360 (1414) and am trying to connect it to me PC.

I found this nice instructable to modify the cable so it connects to a 12V PSU and USB: https://www.instructables.com/id/Wiring-an-Xbox-Kinect-for-USB/

I didn't want to permanently connect a power cable to it as these are quite handy to have around and the connection needed to be sturdy so I designed this housing for the connection. It includes a female connector for the power which I bought off ebay ages ago and is screwed together so to clamp the cables down. You'll need three nuts and M3x8 bolts.

The top and bottom are identical.

Top tip I discovered when printing holes for nuts and bolts is that the hex holes are big enough to accommodate the bolt head so no need to model two parts.

Also when printing the hex holes upsidedown like this, make a single transitional layer a triangular hole so it is full supported from the edges. If it just goes straight to a smaller hole it is completely unsupported. and gets messy.

I used a ribbon cable USB as I had it lying around and it looks neat but if anyone wants me to modify it to accommodate a round cable let me know.

Hope someone finds this useful.
