Been thinking something like this using the FT battery holder will be easier. Flush mount pocket for one of the 510's with a nut, if air or ego is needed an adapter could be used.

Approximate dimensions are looking like 1.3" x 1.8" x 3.875"


Can you round all the sharp corners????:)

Let me know what you think of those buttons I sent via Tibs.......

Ok, but on the Tibs we only need the buttons to press the on board switches, not the complete switches. so we only have to solder 4 wires. I thinks Tibs volunteered to presolder all four wire to the dna for us. So nice of her.;)

Buttons are cheap enough, I could probably add them to the dna co-op without going over on my $5k limit. They naturally go together so I doubt j0ker would have any issue with it.

You do the DNAs and buttons and Tibs does the Tibs kits. ;) And you send both to me in one box..:D Does shapeways give a discount on volume?

If you wanted to at least solder one button we could do something like this fairly easy....which was you original idea....but these guys just made a pretty aluminum prototype :lol:




I have no aversion to soldering, well except for that ribbon cable......

Your basically trading width for length.....and for my hands I think I would prefer the extra width....plus it will probably be more stable.

I think on that aluminum mod you also have to add the up down switches since the board is folded back over the screen and the board buttons are facing in...:) It is no longer a drop in for OFs,,,:D
