XIAO LoRa node case, mil-spec

A small case that keeps a XIAO LoRa node together out on a shelf, a fence post or a windowsill. The orange lid sits on a dark base, with a wifi-style mark and a little drip icon moulded in. Change the stack height and the antenna room to fit your own board.

Good to know

  • The board stack height (12 mm) and USB-C port height are my estimates. Adjust the Board stack height and USB-C centre above board bottom sliders on Adjust, and check against your real boards.
  • The snap tabs need to flex a little, and the preview can't show that. If the lid is too tight or too loose, tweak it on a first print.
  • The report flags thin ledges on the lid. Those are the engraved lettering and signal mark, which I left in on purpose.
