Accurate Microbee case dimensions?

CheshireNoir · 28-12-2021, 12:23 AM

Hey Folks,
Has anyone got accurate Microbee case dimensions? Technical sketches? I'm starting to design the transparent acrylic case. I know it doesn't need to be perfect, and, for now, I'm working off hi-res photos I have taken, but if I've simply missed something in the technical archives, like a design drawing, I'd be kicking myself!

(If there are not, I'll submit what I have once it's done.)

Cheers and TIA!

As per this post where we added some of the original case artwork - Some Microbee Cases and Metal Work schematics (microbeetechnology.com.au) so check out the Repository, I think everything you need is there.

Cheers ChickenMan!
Those are exactly what I needed. This'll make the clear acrylic case that much more accurate.

Thanks again!

So I finally got access to the laser cutters last night...
MDF Mockups because these things never work right the first time...

I still need to do a second pass in MDF. I also need to finally do a solution so I can secure the lid, but I have a good idea for that.

Not bad for a first attempt :-D
