Adafruit HalloWing with SD card shield gets a case
2023-Feb-01, Wednesday 12:10 pmHello readers! Last time I got my Adafruit HalloWing badge working with the SD Card Shield under Arduino. But that's a lot of naked electronics to have dangling around my neck. Let's make a case for it!
Someone already remixed the Hallowing badge case to fit a battery, so I had a go at remixing it further. I brought the model into Windows 3D Builder, cut, and extruded the depth of the case to 2cm. Which it turns out fits everything nicely! Except, the SD card is a bit squished against the edge of the case (you might need to put the SD card in after fitting the badge into the case). If I do this again next time I'd widen that bottom opening just a smidgen.
( Slight complication )
