This is a pocket watch housing for the highly programmable Makerbot Watch. ( http://wiki.makerbot.com/makerbot-watch ) Designed to protect the circuit board when not in use, while being able to hinge open for easy tinkering. Inspired by the feedstock hinge ( http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1358 ) , I tried to use the least amount of hardware as possible. The ABS filament acts as the hinge pin, and the clamshell parts have built-in bumpers that keep all the components well constrained. Adding 3mm magnets will really give the whole thing a robust feel.There are two versions posted:1. watch top.stl, watch bottom.stl; -These are pictured and have a more finished looking aesthetic, and more refined bumpers. 2. (rev4).stl; -These are an ultra light weight ribbed version that have a consistent material thickness, however requires a well tuned 3d printer.For anyone who wants to make something similar, there is a dxf quantifying(1:1) the critical features of the parts.Magnets and acrylic faceplate optionalMore photos: http://www.flickr.com/photos/nickstarno/sets/72157624304725027/
