Looks lovely! Do you plan on making a version for the other button config? Still bummed out I got the early version.

@Sigel_2843404 Sorry, no I wont be doing a version for the other button config, I dont have a board to test with/measure.. It's also hard to imagine how to make room for side buttons without changing the case width.

But.. Would a design with a a 'hole' in the side that lets you press the buttons by hand work? that souldnt be too hard for me to edit up..

@EasyTarget_619792 That would be perfect. Would really appreciate it!

@Sigel_2843404
I just uploaded 4 extra body models where the button pin/tunnel mechanism is replaced by a large finger hole that should allow easy finger access to the buttons.

Hope this helps, if you do ake this feedback (or posting a make) is always welcome ;-)

NOTE: I make two assumptions:
1) The button position (x,y) on the PCB has not changed, only the orientation.
2) The pins of the buttons do not stick out more than 1.5mm from the side of the PCB board.

@EasyTarget_619792 Turned out awesome! My battery is a just 4-5 mils (10mils total) thicker to get it into the slim version but it fits awesome nicely in the big one with lots of space for sensors in the future, its quite slick and neat looking.
