Hi all, Had some free time this afternoon so I put together a laser cut case for the SIMtrace (photos attached), It's just cut out of 2mm perspex, with openings for the cards, flexible SIM adapter, USB and 2.5mm jack. They open up from the top for changing the flexible SIM adapters and accessing the buttons / flashing, The designs are attached for anyone who has got access to a makerspace or laser cutter wants to make one,
- *SimTrace_2mm_box_version_7.dxf *is the DXF for the design, should work with any cutting software, file is in MM - *Simtrace_Final.rld *is the RDworks layout with the logo in it (most low end lasers use this software) and it has the nesting & logo baked in (DXF does not have the logo embedded) - *Osmocom_Logo_No_Gradient.jpg* is an adjusted version of the Osmocom logo as the laser CAM software doesn't deal with gradients
I'm not sure where the best place to put the files are, so others can make their own - on the SIMtrace page on the Wiki or in the Repo itself? Cheers, Nick

Hi Nick,
sorry for the quite late response.

First of all: Congratulations on the design.

I would love to include the files in the official simtrace git repository, alongside the electrical design files. Have you thought about the kind of license you would like to apply?
The original electrical design files are under CC-BY-SA, but using the same for the mechanical designs would mean we'd have to add some attribution inside the design file itself, as otherwise every laser cut will come without attribution by default, and people need to put labels on it to comply with the attribution clause.
