       @mntmn I'm willing to give it a shot.I’d need some caliper-level measurements/dimensions to go off of… also a picture of the board from straight-on rather than at an angle would be helpful.Do you have these in-hand?

       @mntmn possibly? can't hurt.

       @mntmn righto -- so the goal is something that looks similar and behaves a bit like a sidecar battery pack?

       @mntmn hmm, found the kicad files and managed to extract this -- is this accurate to the final PCB dimensions?

       @mntmn yeah, I'll need to add a mm or 2 of space just to allow for variations... mostly right now I'm just trying to sketch the footprint of the board. should be easy enough to model a box around that once I have that.

       @mntmn I can do both a single and a double version.Also was pondering if it makes more sense for them to be side-by-side vs. stacked, or length-wise.Maybe I'll do a few variants if I get bored. 😂

       @mntmn Okay, looks like side by side configuration in the enclosure makes the most sense then. 👍

       @mntmn okay, before I start pondering how the lid will look/lock in place, I just wanna run this past you so I don't go too far off the rails. 😅The bigger holes are the same positioning and diameter as the 100mm VESA mount holes.The small holes line up with the holes in the battery board PCBs.The slot should(?) be big enough to handle the pass-through to the other enclosure.The rounded corners should match the main computer enclosure, for aesthetics.Any thoughts/concerns so far? Here's the onshape document so far -- https://cad.onshape.com/documents/c90a7d7c275e04a316862928/w/9f8c801748449da557672f66/e/48ab3a2ea61bb8339ec01e7b?renderMode=0&uiState=6a75f6bc4315c6d048cfeef1#3dDesign #3Dprinting #CAD

       @mntmn oh, hmm, must've missed centering something... will adjust.

       @mntmn okay, fixed the centering issue, adjusted the cable opening (made it a bit longer and closer to the wall)

       @mntmn awsome, curious to see how that goes. I've never tried designing for something I didn't already have physically in my hands. 😂if you have an onshape account I'm happy to grant edit rights. ... or I suppose you can just take the step file and run with it.I'd do it in FreeCAD, but my FC skills are... pretty bad and I haven’t the patience to get better at it yet. 😅
