This is turning out to be a pretty cool mod! I appreciate the effort here.

Update #2 (or 3)

I have been out of town, but was able to continue the model and add the lower clips to the Battery Cover on a lunch break. I printed off another sample, and it fits like a glove. The seams line up nicely, and the cover is lying flat to the shell.

           

Now onto the clip, then the model should be ready to go.

Ok, so...... I did not forget about finishing the Battery cover design. Life has just got in the way. I did finish the 3d model the other day, but I have not had a chance to print and test the clip design. Lets me see if i cant get the latest design printed off tonight, and see how it fits.

Any update?


RE: 3D Print Battery Cover - spideyk21 - 05-17-2018

@strongbad, I just got back from vacation, and prior to that I had to modify/update my printer. I am back into this week. I need to modify the clip design, and print off another test piece.

Well... it has been a bit longer then I anticipated, but the final Gameboy Advance Extended Battery Cover is finished. The clip was a bit of struggle to get designed and printed properly, but the final fit is very nice.

I have uploaded the design to Thingiverse, along with the Fusion 360 archive so the cover can be modified to fit other batteries as needed.

           

Let me know how it fits.
