3D Printed USB Phone Charger Enclosure
After searching hundreds of models of USB charger, all of them looked like Altoids boxes.
Decided to design my own enclosure!
Choose Your Schematic and Components.
Instructables have a hide range of usb charger models and schematics.
i used this one, just added a power jack for charging: https://www.instructables.com/id/Make-a-USB-iPhone-...
i've used recycled components from old electronic that had laying around.
Measure Your Circuit
After defining your circuit, take all the dimensions and make a simple draw with shape and design you'l need.
Choose a 3d modelling software (ex. solid works, fusion 360, rhino, etc.) and start modelling.
remember to give some size tolerance for all the fixings and sliding of the different parts.
Start printing!
Test Everything Once Again
This charger worked with an Ipod 4, Gopro camera , Samsung cellphones and a WiFi portable hard drive.
Hope you find this helpful.
