Description

Overview

Inspired by the Hammond 1455J1201 extruded aluminum enclosure I designed a similar printable one with front and back panels. The enclosure fits to a HackRF One clone having a PCB size of 75x121mm. The enclosure is large enough to host a TCXO module.

Design

All sources used are attached to this project, The parts were extruded and enhanced in OpenSCAD, based on dxf drawings.

  • The buttons are flushing to the front panel. You need a tool to press them. Modify THICKNESS_FRONT to 2mm in order to let them stick out.
  • Set LABEL_SHOW to false in order to omit the engraved labels.
  • Set LABEL_HEIGHT to a positive value in order to emboss the labels instead of engraving them.
  • The TrueType font "Taurus Mono" is used, you probably need to install it.
  • You need the BOSL2 OpenScad library for shift and rotation purposes and some constants.
  • If you need to adapt the PCB size or the buttons/LEDs/connectors, just modify the related dxf-files (I use QCAD) and take over the related coordinates into the scad-sources.

Update: https://www.thingiverse.com/oli666oli reported that the PCB slot is tight (thanks). I increased it by 0.1mm to each side.

Assembly

  • Double check if your HackRF printed circuit board dimensions meet this design (PCB size, etc.).
  • Print the parts using the given print parameters.
  • Double check if all fits.
  • Hot-press-in the M3 inserts, take a soldering iron at 230°C.
  • Put all together.
  • Enjoy!
