I’m looking for a skilled CAD modeller to create a custom case for one of my devices that I’ll be printing myself on an FDM machine in PLA. Port accessibility is the single most important requirement, so every button, speaker grill, charging socket and sensor area must remain fully exposed and usable once the case is fitted. Here’s what I need from you: • A clean, watertight 3D model supplied as STL (ready to slice) plus the editable source file in your preferred package (Fusion 360, SolidWorks, or similar). • Precise wall-thicknesses and tolerances that suit standard PLA prints—think 0.2 mm layer height, 0.4 mm nozzle. • Rounded edges and internal fillets that minimise print stress, with no unsupported overhangs beyond what PLA can handle without excessive support. • A brief note inside the file or as a text document outlining any special print settings you recommend. If you use parametric dimensions, I’ll be able to tweak the fit later, so that would be a bonus. As soon as we start I’ll send accurate measurements and reference photos so you can model to spec. Let me know your typical turnaround time and which CAD tool you prefer, and we can get this started right away. I’m looking for a CAD / 3D product designer to develop a compact SkyOrb enclosure for FDM 3D printing. Main enclosure dimensions: Width: 50 mm Depth: 58 mm Height: 68 mm Wall thickness: 1.6–1.8 mm Completely flat bottom Removable bottom cover Preferably printable without supports, or with minimal supports Internal components: GC9A01 1.28" round TFT display: PCB size: 38 × 45 mm Visible round display diameter: 35.7 mm Module thickness: 4.5 mm Mounting-hole center distance: 19.5 mm Mounting-hole diameter: 2 mm Pin/header connector points downward Pin/header height: 10 mm ESP32 board: PCB size: 51.6 × 28.6 mm Overall thickness including pins: 13 mm Mounting-hole pitch: 47 × 23 mm The board must be mounted horizontally inside the base Long axis runs front-to-back Header pins point upward USB-C must face directly toward the rear and align with an opening in the rear wall Additional components: Buzzer: approximately Ø12 × 8.5 mm ATGM336H GPS module with external antenna; exact dimensions will be provided later Display, GPS, buzzer and wiring should be located mainly inside the upper/head section A clear internal cable path from the head to the ESP32 is required Enclosure design: Smooth, organic, monolithic product shape Upper section should resemble a rounded cylindrical / horn-like form Approximate external front diameter: 44–46 mm Display/front face tilted approximately 18–20° from vertical Rear of the head must be strongly rounded The head must blend smoothly and completely into the base No thin neck, separate stand, visible step or sharp transition between head and base Bottom must remain completely flat No ventilation holes No touch sensor openings Rear should have only a clean USB-C opening Front should include a flat area for a metal SkyOrb logo up to 20 mm wide Required deliverables: Editable CAD source and/or STEP file Print-ready STL files Separate shell, bottom cover and bezel/retainer if required Watertight geometry Proper FDM manufacturing clearances, typically around 0.3–0.5 mm Most important workflow requirement: Before designing the internal mounts or producing the final STL, I need to approve the exterior CAD shape first. Please provide Front, Side, Top and Isometric CAD renders of the enclosure. Only after the exterior shape is approved should the internal structure and final print-ready files be completed.

My Name is Azra, and I have an extensive background in 3D design, particularly in CAD modeling and 3D printing. Throughout my career, I've honed my skills to create clean, watertight models with the parameters you require for successful FDM printing. Notably, I understand the nuances of PLA prints - from its layer heights to nozzle widths - ensuring a precise output that meets your needs. Even more, my models boast rounded edges and internal fillets, minimizing print stress and eliminating unsupported overhangs. With regards to your project- SkyOrb enclosure - every single button, sensor area, socket and speaker must maintain full accessibility; this is a challenge I confidently embrace. Furthermore, I am a proficient user of SolidWorks; however, I can adapt to any CAD tool to accommodate your preferences. My workflow entails using parametric dimensions which will enable easier tweaking of fits as needed. Additionally, I can provide alternate shell, bottom cover and bezel designs if necessary.

Hi, I understand that you’re looking for a mechanical/CAD designer to develop the SkyOrb enclosure with the exterior shape approved first, followed by the internal mounting and final FDM-ready design. I’m primarily an Electronics & PCB Design Engineer, but I can add significant value to this project by designing the electronics specifically around the enclosure. Instead of using a separate ESP32 development board with headers, I can design a custom compact PCB using the ESP32 module directly, with dedicated connectors for the GC9A01 display, GPS, buzzer, USB-C, and other required interfaces. This would make the final SkyOrb much more professional, compact, and easier to integrate mechanically. I can also provide the PCB dimensions and exact mounting/connector locations so the enclosure can be designed around a production-ready electronics assembly. If you already have the electronics finalized, I can work from your existing dimensions. Otherwise, I can handle the custom PCB + enclosure integration as one coordinated design. Ready to review the reference photos and start with the exterior concept approval.

Hello, I am Muhammad Javed, a mechanical engineer with more than 10 years of experience in 3D CAD modeling and product enclosure design. I can design your SkyOrb enclosure as a clean, parametric and FDM-ready model, with the exterior shape developed first for your approval before I proceed with internal mounts and final STL files. I understand that port accessibility is critical, so I will ensure the USB-C, display, buzzer, GPS/antenna and all required interfaces remain fully accessible and functional. I will develop the 50 × 58 × 68 mm enclosure with 1.6–1.8 mm walls, flat bottom, removable cover, smooth horn-like/organic head-to-base transition, 18–20° display angle, rounded rear, logo area and minimal-support geometry. I will also account for approximately 0.3–0.5 mm FDM clearances and the 0.2 mm layer / 0.4 mm nozzle PLA process. My preferred CAD tool is SolidWorks, and I can provide editable source files/STEP, watertight STL files, separate shell/cover/bezel components where required, plus recommended print settings. I can first provide professional Front, Side, Top and Isometric renders for exterior approval, then complete the internal structure after your confirmation. I am ready to start as soon as you provide the reference photos and measurements.
