This is a print to create an arcade box for EG Starts Arcade Kit, found here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M2X88QP?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details It's fairly compact but if you add rubber feet to it, grips the table nicely. In addition to the kit (and obviously printer) you'll need: - 4x M3 6mm screws - 7x M3 16mm screws - 4x M3 nuts Optionally, you'll need: - glue, for the cover on the joystick - rubber feet, to prevent sliding on a table Here's the suggested order, or at least the order I completed it in: 1. Print the top at 0.2mm. I used 25% infill to make it stronger and a little heavier, but you can probably get away with less. 2. Print the bottom at 0.28mm. I used 15% infill. I printed with supports for the USB hole. I'm not sure if that was necessary, but the support popped out nicely leaving a well-formed hole for the USB. 3. While bottom is printing - it's a about a 13 hour print - screw in buttons using the hardware from your kit. You do not need to put the layout like I did. 4. Install the joystick from the kit using the 6mm screws and nuts. 5. Plug in your buttons and joystick into the electronic board using the connectors provided by the kit. At this time, you might want to test the kit on a computer, to make sure it works and you have the joystick orientation right. Once the bottom is done: 6. Place the electronic board inside where the hole is... the USB hole should fit snugly. 7. Place the top onto the bottom and screw in using the 16mm screws. It will be a snug fit, but just work the wires around in the unit, there's plenty of space 8. Place the joystick cover provided by the kit (the circular flat black piece) and put it into the inset within the joystick. 9. Place the joystick cover printed onto the top. I used gorilla glue to glue it down right on the screws. I didn't need much. 10. Place the joystick head (mine is a ball) on the top of the joystick Enjoy your work!
