Sidekick 64 for Zero2 and 3A+ Raspberry

thingiverse

Please mind the license. NOT FOR COMMERCIAL USE This is a case for Sidekick cartridge for Commodore computers, that can be used with the short version of the PCB and can host either a RPi Zero-2 or RPi 3A+ . Its a quite difficult design and your printer tolerances must be good. You must also have experience and know your slicing software. Its best to be printed upright with tree supports with concentric support pattern and 0% support infill so the supports material that will be wasted will be minimum. Also its best to use support blocker in many places that are not really needed. I have photos of Cura slicing preview so you can have an idea of how it should be sliced, the last photo shows how much support blockers are used on this slicer to avoid support tree branches on the outside of the case. The lower side of the PCB of the RGB-LCD must be at about 8mm from the sidekick PCB and there is a spacer to be printed for the upper right of the screen hole. Because the pins length of the LCD ar not enough to keep this distance a soldering iron must be used in every pin to melt the solder and press the excess pin length from the upper side of the screen, so the pins will gain a couple mm length enough to be soldered on the sidekick PCB. The penultimate picture shows how the LCD should be mounted. Also all 3 buttons must be soldered on the upper side of the sidekick PCB as per the same photo.
