@void Great design, love it. I'm planning on using it for the wireless Aurora Corne I'm building. Do you think the 6col_eiga_1.5d_600mah could fit a battery that is 4.5-5mm in height?
I have downloaded the file to modify the side holes for the reset button, as it is slightly offset towards the controller on this PCB. I will upload a remix once I'm done
@Precigus_1515657 hey, thank you! batteries measuring around 4mm in thickness should fit with some room to spare, but 5mm might be just a little bit too much. be careful if you go this route, and pay attention to any components mounted on the back of the pcb that could puncture the battery.
@void Finished my build. It looks and fits great. I printed the 6col_eiga_1.5d_600mah model. I had to slightly modify it to fit the Aurora Corne plate properly (some of the bottom LEDs were hitting the edge where the PCB sits and the reset button cutout needed to be moved slightly). I will upload a remix when I can. I actually managed to fit a 800mAh LP503448 battery in (close call with the added double-sided tape) and it's not in danger of being punctured. Really happy about this. Though there is one thing that slightly bothers me - the tenting. I got the bolts and other parts for tenting that you had listed, and when I insert them, the whole case seems to move on the axes of the bolts as the locknuts are not fixed into place. Do I need to glue them into the hole?
regarding the lock nuts: I never used the tented version myself, but I did print a half at some point in time, and I remember the m5 nuts being snug in the case, with no play.
I don't see any reason why glue wouldn't work, just as long as it doesn't ruin the threads.

@Precigus_1515657 sweet, looking forward to the remix!
