MiSTerCade Remote Case

thingiverse

Updates 9/5/2022: Standard_text_recessed_knob, slim_text, and slim_blank were all updated with fillets on the posts in hopes to make the posts a bit stronger. The standard_text_recessed_knob has also had a slight increase in height to allow for more clearance between the top of the case and the buttons. This is to eliminate actuating the buttons with the 3d printed button covers when using this model. Update 9/29/2022: Updated to support the V2 MiSTerCade Remote Files follow the same naming schema but are appended with "V2_" V2 cases have also been updated to feature a more sturdy design for the screw posts. Update 10/4/2022: Updated some V1 tops with sturdier, V2 posts. They are appended with "v1.1" V1 remotes DO fit in V2 cases in case you want to use that model. There are three major designs in two categories (slim vs standard). There's a text and blank version of each so that you can customize the text as you wish. Text is a pain in the ass with 3d prints (at least with my printer), so be aware that the text layout is good, but not fantastic. Text is as follows: P1 / P2 Coin II: Pause MNU: Menu / OSD RST: Reset Game RBT: Reset the MiSTer Volume indicator at the top # Slim: Does not use any button inserts as the buttons built into the PCB should reach the top of the case. The larger buttons will stick out a bit and the smaller buttons are just about flush (still easily clickable). If the volume knob rubbing on the plastic bothers you, just give it a bit of space when screwing it in place. ### Slim_blank.stl: No text on top of the case and slim. ### Slim_text.stl: This has text on the top to label the buttons. ### Slim_text_recessed_knob.stl: This has text as well, also has a large hole for the volume knob. This makes it so that the volume knob can sit all the way down on the potentiometer. # Standard: This version sits a bit higher so that the board is completely enclosed. This was the original design as I wanted to fully encase the board. If you do not choose the "recessed_knob" versions, it can be difficult to install the knob as the screw in the back of the knob that is included with the MiSTerCade Remote only barely clamps. You'll have some rubbing on the plastic, but it does work. I would recommend this version if you would like to use your own potentiometer knob! :) Standard requires the use of the included buttons. The only note is that the large_button_slightly_bigger.stl is a bit bigger diameter so it might cause difficulties. It works fine for me, but I included this plus a bit slimmer version just in case. The difference in diameter is only .25mm. ### Standard_blank.stl: Smaller hole for the volume pot, no text. ### Standard_text.stl: Same as above, but with text. ### Standard_blank_recessed_knob.stl: 33 or 32.75mm hole (I can't remember exactly and I'm too lazy to check. It's slightly bigger than the volume knob included) where the volume pot is. It makes it so the volume knob can sit all the way down onto the pot. The hole is just big enough and doesn't rub. If this is different for you, lmk and I'll increase the diameter a bit more. ### Standard_text_recessed_knob.stl: Same as above, but no text! # Bottom ### BOT_v2.0.stl: The bottom. Universal. [Hardware I used while designing](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VRC5RJ8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1). The case should fit 20mm M3 screws and the nuts should fit just fine in the bottom. [3/8 in.

It helps protect the control panel of your arcade and gives it some friction to reduce the chance of it sliding around. Please enjoy! And please do not commercialize as per the license. :-)
