Pokemon Go Plus Watch Case: Rev. 2

thingiverse

Pokemon Go Plus watch-style case Put pokemon go plus on your wrist more comfortably and somewhat less conspicuously with any regular 20mm or 22mm watch band! Two variants are provided: 38mm casing, for 20mm bands, and a 42mm casing, for 22mm bands. All the solidworks files are available - leave a comment and I will send you the files. REV 2: I originally chose for the button to be off-centre rather than having a larger watchface – this is due to the non-circular shape of the Pokemon Go Plus PCB. This design fixes that, with a centred button location. PRINT SETTINGS Front: print face down to get a smooth top surface, with supports enabled to help get better surface finish on the watch lugs. Printing without support may work for PLA with sufficient cooling as there is a 20 degree slope in the overhang area. Back: Print the back facing down (like a dome), with supports. A small layer height helps. I recommend using 0.1mm layers to get a smooth radius on the shell, and using a brim rather than a raft. Some printers may have trouble with the pins on the inside of the case near the button hole. If so, just tear them off - they are not essential for a successful assembly. ASSEMBLY Disassemble your pokemon go, and remove the original PCB, battery, button and button gasket. Throw everything else away – especially those stupid triangle screws! If you don't have the right kind of screw driver, you can always file down a torx of suitable size to be a triangle... Install the PCB in the front half, using the original button and rubber button gasket. Install the battery into the back half, and then screw the case closed with 4mm self-tapping wood screws. It may help to affix the battery with some blu-tak to make assembly easier. If you can't find screws that fit, you could use a small amount of superglue/hot glue and hold til dry, but you will probably have to reprint the design if you ever want to change the battery. Finally, install the 20mm watch arms of your choice! Model files last updated: 2nd Jan 2017, 3:30am GMT+11 I'm happy with the design at this point, probably won't be updated again at this point. Thanks for looking and happy pokemon-ing!
