  #23 Very lovely minimalistic design... But you can still remove more waste material from the base. Also The board I mentioned is not the board that will have the mini usb port and audio jack...

  #10 Your design has over hanging structure this won't print well without support structure

     Not sure where you are referring to..
     This design is no more difficult than the dome you had printed for yourself already,
     what splicing software and printer are you using so i can tailor the design to any limitations you may have?
     
     Outstanding Questions:
     What are the available contact points for the PCB we are designing for?
     Can we have a photo of the PCB?
     How are you connecting to the batteries?
     Are there contacts mounted in the printed frame (like in a TV remote) or will the batteries soldered?

     If you read my previous comments you will understand... For now assume that there will be an additional small PCB housing the audio jack and mini USB port. The batteries are soldered. The over hand in your design is in the shell...

  #29 This design is nice but it's wasting too much space... I do not want any additional screws... Also the circuit board does not have an audio jack and mini USB... For now assume that the USB port and Audio jack are stand alone component or on a smaller different board...

  #20 love your design, you removed a lot of waste material, which is what I want... But the batteries are not supported properly

     The image is not well appreciated, but small towers on the sides function as a clip for the battery.

  #27 This design is lovely simple yet aims to archive the objective. Your clamp like structure seem too small to keep the battery in place.

  #21 I like how clean and professional your design looks... I like how there are no screws or additional parts that need to be printed separately. There are no over hanging structures and you have reduced a lot of the materials. Make the support structures for the batteries to be strong enough... Submit the rest of the Design for feedback...I think you can still reduce a little more materials waste...

  #13 Very good visualization and use of color I could clearly see all the parts. I liked how you labeled the. Just one problem you used way too many parts... and I don't want to use more screws in the design

  Hi,
  Assuming that there are no holes in the PCB. I would really appreciate if you could please send a layout/footprint of the same so that i may arrange the components properly.
  Also, after correcting for the 15% increased size that you have shared (by scaling down the entire model to 86.95%), the components fit snug in the base. Hope you have considered manufacturing tolerances in your original design dimensions.

     To add to this, since you are going to screw the two pieces from the bottom, I think you can keep the screw hole limited to 80% of the current distance. This way your upper cover will look aesthetically more pleasing (without a hole) and you can add threaded portion using threaded inserts in this.
     Also, I assume you will require tooling and mold design for manufacturing it after your prototyping is completed. I would design this for manufacture so that your prototype and final product are not far from each other.

  #16 Nice design but I don't want the design to have more that 2 part to prints. The parts are the base and the top. It's nice that you got the measurement for the mini USB and Audio jack hole right... Really glad to see that... Make your design minimalistic in materials

     Dear Contest Holder, kindly initiate chat to discuss details regarding the batteries.
     Will implement all your suggestions provided in these comments which were not provided initially in the brief.

  #14 I do not want to 3D print any additional parts, apart form the base and the top shell.

     The center of the audio jack should be 10 mm from the center line that separates the right side of the shell from the left side... You have this wrong in your design. Also perimeter of the mini USB hole should be 7 mm from the center line. This is also wrong in your design.

     Well noted, can you initiate a chat so I can incorporate the comments. So, you can comment until the design fits you well. I will show you the sketches and dimensions of sketches in the model itself in real time video

  #9 You have completely changed the design when I told you not to... I don't want more screws... Your design uses way too much materials...

  #17 I like how your design looks very simplistic, you did not change much... You did not use screws in your design and very thing seems to come together nicely in your design. Did you make any extra parts? I did not see any extra parts... Please submit more images of different angle so I can see better. Also I like the use of color in your design for better visualization.

     Just one thing to note the base will also be 3D printed so the over hanging structure that slips to secure the board will not print well. Hope you can fix that

  #12 I like how your design used less material... But I did not like that there is an extra part that must be 3D printed separately and screwed in place to hold the board and batteries in place...

     Also when reducing materials make sure not to compromise the strength on the base

  #7 Excellent use of space... I like how the entire design consist of just two pieces, this is closer to what we are looking for. The batteries are rechargeable and will not need replacing.

     The circuit board holder design is great but will no be feasible as it will get in the way as there are component on the edge of the circuit board.

     May we please see a photo of the PCB to better understand the spacing limitations or a more descript write up to optimize the design. Thank you
