Mini Computer

This whole design, including the minicomputer, computer case and base are made in fusion 360, links to the 3d printing download will be available in the form of a .stl file. I made this mini computer intended as a desk accessory, my inspiration for this first published design is the tamagotchi, the intended use is for you to make your own art in a slit on the side on the computer, the dimensions of the canvas in the computer is 14.90mm height wise and 15mm length wise and the pc case is for you to store all your designs next to the computer.

• Fusion 360

You'll need to have Fusion 360 AutoDesk or any other computer aided 3d printing designer* to import the .stl files.

• 3D printer

you'll need a 3D printer to send the .stl files too, I used the Adventurer 4 series for this creation, it doesn't have to be this specific model*.

*It is possible if you use an outdated software on the printer or a newer model, the files may have finding problems with the transfer of files.

*If using any other computer aided 3D printing designer it is to note that the .stl files may not transfer properly

*It is to note if you do design it out of wood you'll have to change the minicomputers design as it would be possible to copy it as is as the schematics are only intended for 3D printing.

Before i say anything it is VERY important that the .STL files are smaller than normal, so when you import them into your 3D printer they will be very small, I only did this not to be wasteful as I didn't want to waste an excess amount of 3d printer filament, so before printing these designs adjust the models to your prefered size. I have linked and image of how the model looks like without any upscaling.

With that in mind start by downloading the .STL file and import it into your 3D printer, once all the pieces are in, arrange them in the configuration same as the image above for optimal 3D printing. Place supports on the mini computer to stabilise it during the printing process.

once the items are 3D printed cut off the shavings, and assemble the computer with the base, notice the slot next to the mini computer, that is where you can place you small designs, I didn't make a 3D model of the art panel as you may want to change the size of the computer, so the art panel will be will customizable.
