Doing some sizing issues

Even more case desgin work, i might have a lead on issues!

Even more cadding, touching up the model, keep having sizing issues, whenever i try models it keeps giving errors…

Devlog 1

hello pokemon enthusiast!

In this Devlog I will be showcasing the PCB, Schematic and Case.

• See Images.

Journal / Explanation of process

• The PCB and Schematic were quite simple, followed the tutorial.
• The case here is to resemble the Pokemon Wailord, under him is the ocean where I might add some water pokemon swimming there. (ex. Magikarp or Sharpedo)
• The Tubes there are for the Wailord so he can fly/float.
  Maybe i’l change them to some tentacle’s from tentacrule. Also the tentacles will be where the jumper wires can go through for the screen. (hollow)
• The scales/circles on Wailord will be the buttons for the clock, while the clock will be on the side of the ocean.
  (not sure if I should make/CAD circular keycaps or just make the scales a square)
• For printing / CADing later on I might make them so they are detachable

Slight problems

• The size and weight might be overkill for a “simple” clock. I’m not sure if this can even be printed
• Also due to school starting and procrastination im not sure if I have enough time to ship and build this by Sept 30th (stardance end)

Upcoming…

• MAYBE Pokemon in water
• Hole in Wailord (for PCB to fit)
• Opening in ocean (for clock)
• Making it functional in CAD.

ok thanks for reading!

More cad work, cant be bothered to take a new screen shot sorry

More case design, touching stuff up, not done yet tho

update: Improved the converter to output wayyyyyy fewer equations while maintaining graph quality and improved performance

Where can i make my app

Basically, im cadding? i think thats the term, im fixing bugs with the model

holy crappedididapidee

I’m almost done and this is like surreal. finally, all my hard work is coming to an end. all my pain suffering diligence is showing as a final product

i added a hc logo in the top right.
i gave up on the “cool effect” for a pokemon logo bc i keep getting manifold body errors.
I used the 2020 HC progress logo so i could get a cool rounded fillet effect.
also, instead of making the holes 5mm from the wall, they are 7mm. i saw some pics
also changing the name to pokepad

DEVLOG 5

hi

Main tasks done

• Model complete (might add some tilt to it)
• Code complete
• Github complete

Journal

• While rotating around the model and admiring it, I noticed that the “flower” knob attachment was out of place. I decided to replace it with a simple pokeball model, this will be painted over once printed since multi-colour print might make it quite fragile.
• The pcb routing looks very messy, although not included, there are silkscreen pokemon characters.
• Thought the bottom was too empty so I added a rotom engraving.
• Github updated here
