Description

This model is the original enclosure for Home Assistant Voice Preview Edition optimized for 3D printing.

It's based on the official injection-molded parts but with some adaptation to avoid many supports :

Home Assistant logo on the bottom enclosure is removed
3D screw threads instead of threaded inserts for the top enclosure
Flat wheek
Flat button

Before printing it, read the assembling/reassembling procedure on Home Assistant documentation website to avoid breaking parts of your device :

You will also need to bring some parts from the original device :

The PCB
The speaker
All the screws
The rubber pads for the bottom enclosure
The rubber lug for the button

You have multiple way to customize the device with different level of difficulties :

Easy : replace only the top enclosure. You will not need to disassemble the PCB.
Intermediate : replace the top enclosure, the bottom enclosure and the button.
Hard : replace all the plastics part. You will need to full diassemble to device and unclip the wheel for the PCB

Turned out great. I did make two slight changes. I scaled the middle button to 99% which allowed for a smoother button press and wheel turn. I also changed the surface to Hilbert Curve, which is just a preference on my part for the surface texture and looks.

Thanks for the tip on scaling the button down to 99%! I tried without first, and that did not feel right. At 99% scale it feels a little loose, but at least it works right!

printed fine, if you’re picky the red dot on the switch didn’t turned out 100%

Seems to be a well designed model with intricate details, I will definitely proceed with the transplantation of the hardware.

The enclosure is truly excellent overall. The design and build quality are impressive, making it a fantastic housing solution. However, there was one minor issue: the dial required significant sanding work to achieve smooth rotation. Despite this small drawback, which can be fixed with some manual finishing, the enclosure is really great.

Printed quickly and simply. No changes needed to profile. Very useful for prototyping enclosures while I wait for my Voice to arrive.

Please release a STEP file of this (and the injection molded case).

Love the total customizability

One of a few models that once printed, you really wouldn't know it came off a 3d printer and it functions just like the original only you pick the color.
