    Questions about DNA40 Hana style box build

    If I were using the sled...I would mock up up or down wire flow and see if there was room for a below routing plan. If you are a meticulous person, then you will want it clean. Personally I go for "serviceable" which would be an above routing so I could tweak any post build issues.

    I have printed a number of things from the three major commercial 3d printing houses, but in the end I never felt the resulting mods had the feel I wanted. I may try again now that they have better metal selections, but the accuracy of the metal printing is a bit frightening vs the lost wax...

    I had one smoke as well. The batteries should be fine, but no harm in testing them. I personally think their 500mAh chargers are sub-par.

    I have only build regulated, but I could see myself venturing into unregulated with that chip...it is available? It would be great inside a more custom enclosure.

    Very clean...what is the schematic layout of the front bezel you have designed...i.e. are those holes for onboard button use or off-board? I have tried custom printing buttons, but the process was so iterative to get things right that I gave up.

    Hmmm....I have some of those...might be worth looking into if you are looking at micro mods. My hands already swallow this one.

    Thanks! I am still bummed that the burl is so thick that I have had to cut out room for the charging cable housing, but I am working on a bezel that will solve that. Soldering with tweezers is not my thing! I am still thinking this is a prototype as the first brazing of the aluminum was...

    I posted a few more pics in woodcraft...but here is where one of the DNA40s ended up. Still working on a bezel for the charge port. No room left on the inside:

    Trying to get the form factor down even further. I still need a bezel for the charger...but that is another day. My only advice is don't try this! Not nearly enough room. General specs: Large screen DNA40, lexan cover, aluminum frame with dye stabilized burl skins.

    What is listed as unresolved? All of the issues I have been aware of are resolved, but I may be out of the loop. The current large screen version seems solid.

    I have also had success with painter's tape as a scuff layer then using normal press fit tools. That said, I have little patience for press fit crap (other than bearings) as it is usually indicative of disposable junk.

    Looking fun. If you are ever hauling a load through the Roanoke Virginia area...give a shout, I bet Mike and I could meet up!

    The key to a perfect cut with a dremel is to cut from the inside, a few mm in from the final line, then finish from the outside with a file.

    ...ok the equivalent then...any flat piece of metal will do.

    If I were you, I would go down to the local big box store (blue or orange if you are in the US) and get some aluminum and just make a plate larger than your goofed up hole, and cut an appropriate hole in it, then simply epoxy it on.

    Feature is only in current firmware only. If the chip is older than 60 days...it probably lacks this.
