@dgauche

Any chance of sharing the CAD files? I need to make some mods for parts available in South Africa.

The designer has replied

@shaztech

Not right now, but you can export the stl from bambu studio and modify them.

@dgauche

Replying to @shaztech :

Thanks, STL is shitty for CAD work.

@shaztech

Replying to @dgauche :

I know, currently I work with Autodesk Inventor (expensive subscription) when I want to edit STL, I import them and convert to an editable part. But it's not always easy. Which part you want to edit ?

It's phonetic Dutch/Flemish. Something like "Great, I'm going to make this too"

@gbomacfly

Looks great, I wanna build this. Can you please provide links or more details on the things you used? Especially the trays and the sata adapters. Thx :)

Big Thanks!

@user_446286788

will this work with dell trays?

The designer has replied

@shaztech

Probably not, I don't know

@user_3629585473

Is there any chance that you'll make a version for 2.5 drives? That was really cool!

The designer has replied

@shaztech

You can already put 2.5 inch drive if you print thoses trays (there's 2 versions of the trays). I'm not currently designing a smaller version.

Love it. I made many hard drive enclosures for my chia mine lol but this one is very clean and pretty. It'd be cool if it had abackplane but that's not a big deal,
