barry99705 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Printed out a case, much better than the heat shrink tubing I had around it before! Pineapple Juice just to light up the leds. I know it won't work that way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bored369 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 That is nice I was going to go with the heat shrink tubing for mine, but now I don't know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry99705 Posted January 11, 2016 Author Share Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) Here's the file. There's another one on thingiverse, but it doesn't print very well. Raised letters with no way to support them. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:602180 Definitely don't feel like I'm going to snap the thing in half now!

phpsystems Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Nice. Considered doing one for the Yardstick One? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry99705 Posted January 11, 2016 Author Share Posted January 11, 2016 Nice. Considered doing one for the Yardstick One? I didn't make it, just printed it. Also don't have a yardstick to make one with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bored369 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I found a nice case for Ubertooth one and the yard stick one (i have both and both look nice in the case). http://store.ryscc.com/products/ubertooth-one-enclosure $20 isn't cheap for one, but if you don't have a 3d printer or couple hundred for one it's worth the price IMO.

Mr-Protocol Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Enclosure Options YARD Stick One ships without an enclosure. It is designed to fit 3A-260906U from New Age Enclosures, but you will need to drill a hole for the SMA connector. Another good option to protect YARD Stick One is 5/8" clear heat shrink tubing. via: https://github.com/greatscottgadgets/yardstick/wiki/YARD-Stick-One#enclosure-options http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/New-Age-Enclosures/P3A-260906U/?qs=%2fha2pyFadug%2f8b%252b28cIUBaW%2fCQCudQSc9D%2flOX0aIUKFC%2flMIdLTsQ%3d%3d You can use a drill/file for the hole to fit the antenna. The only thing I forgot when I did mine was to drill a tiny hole about where the LED was to have some visuals. I goofed and ordered the white one, but here it is: https://twitter.com/Mr_Protocol/status/674393265781792768 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vantramp Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I have my ubertooth one in a rysc case. Even though it is a little pricey for a simple case, I would choose that even over making my own with a 3d printer just because the quality is top notch. Same case fits the yardstick one since the whole top is clear LED position doesn't matter. Of course I don't have a 3d printer yet so maybe my thought would change if that were the case. (no pun intended). The printed case Barry did looks really good either way, nicely done! -Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(no pun intended). My thought exactly. I really want a 3d printer but this is the first real example of it being a useful investment for me at this time and yet while useful not sure they're at a price point where it would be worth it really. I goofed and ordered the white one, but here it is: https://twitter.com/Mr_Protocol/status/674393265781792768 That does look pretty slick tho, I'm just far too lazy for hardware modding (simple tho it may be). heck I would have probably paid you $20 to do that one for me if I had known beforehand :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Protocol Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I do have a spare, I bought 2 of the white cases. So it could be doable. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry99705 Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 Having a 3d printer is really cool. I'm currently printing out parts to make a small desktop cnc router, will be about 2 foot square, maybe. Might go a bit bigger, haven't decided yet. The one thing that can happen with printers though is your part may come loose from the bed and stay stuck to the print head. Then you end up with this when you get home... That's the end of life for this print head... From the top. New part will be here today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
