All I can say is WOW! All you are doing is "throwing fuel on the fire" as I my Mestastic journey grows! You check all the boxes in your top tier designs. You have really helped to make the Meshtastic and 3D printing communities BETTER!... and you gladly share it for free. My 3D printer is getting a workout. Thank you for all you do!

Same here, I really just wanted to make a TBeam case for myself and a friend and now here we are...😅
Thanks so much for this, your designs are amazing, truly kind of you to give the files out for free.

@@randomalleycat I think you are being modest, people love them! I might just have to get myself one of them mini RAK boards at some point just to collect them all! I do love the non antenna design thought most! What about a 'no-lcd' version for the heltec v3 also? Only wondering cause I've broken a screen previously!

@@captainmcadams I actually have made a no-lcd version for the Heltec, if you join my Discord I'll post it in the beta-test channel.
As a big RAK fan I love the last case! 21700 wow Great work ...again😊

I think that’s my favorite one so far actually.
very nice !!!!
amazing design! really love how you designed these. I wish you made one for Heltec Wireless Paper (the e-ink version) as there are no decent cases for it out there yet, and it's such a great device!
I’ve been meaning to treat myself to the knipex pliers wrench for a while. Also I accidentally ordered the heltec with the SMA and a little stubby aerial so guess i’ll go with this version :D

I really like these little pliers. I have the parallel smooth jaw version around here somewhere too. They are a better choice for stuff like this actually.
👍
WAAAAANT. I swear, I'm going through more spools of filament than ever before with all these great designs. It does hurt me a little to see SMA connectors being tightened with pliers instead of a proper SMA torque wrench though 🤣 but, that's just me being a radio nerd.

I agree about the SMA generally, then again does it really matter on something like this? 😉
Lol. Step brothers reference

@@MetalDeepthroat right, and I designed it to have no room because it doesn't need it!
About the speaker... The buzzer I use for my V3 is beefier. Link to the model you use? Awesome mod.

Here's the speaker I got a.co/d/0j0G4GHa everything is linked on the Printables page. It's not the loudest, but it fits and it works!
