I don’t understand why not ? Because the hex hole is not as deep as the other one ?
Yes, and because it’s a smaller size. It’s about ten times (or more) easier to strip.
Also the 12.9 alloy steel is way better than stainless steel.

@Tamatoa, I have a vac pump setup which I put together for making enclosures and a bag lying around. Gonna Vac bag it while it cures and will topcoat tomorrow.

Shit I realize I posted in the pics only thread now 
.
I have been considering getting the Roarockit but a vacuum pump would be nice too
Bro the vac pump setup is awesome.
It’s great cos even if you don’t do a great job of sealing the bag it will turn on as needed to keep the vacuum level that you want.
Do it!

But I bet you can find some nipple screw in 12.9

@doomy nice but try to keep the PCBs and components in a more sterile environment, you don’t want them picking up random debris

Paradise, man. I spend a lot of time in Rauris, Salzburgerland, mainly so I can soak up views like this. Your photos help fill the void until you lucky bastards open your borders again

Sweet Jesus. Dude, help me arrange a test ride on that beauty! 
…and I’m interested in taking a look at that board too!

Finally some quality publicity
You can get more space by rotating the modules 90 degress and alternating. I’m doing a 10s3p like this:

Alternating ? How would it work with the Bus Connectors and caps? (I’m planning on using NESE Modules.
I’m trying to accomplish what @uigiroux did here:
Though looking at it now it seems that I didn’t read it correctly. the first 5 modules were 4P + 4P with the last one being 2s4p.
SO instead Mine Should be more like:
right?
Could you show me na illustration of what you mean by alternating?
You bend the bus connectors, and the plastic caps won’t work really 
The hex keys show how long a pack done the normal way would be for reference.

Thank you! Huh interesting (I’m still reading up on batteries so I’m still new this)
I’m not able to import files yet since I’m still waiting of my student credentials to go through so the ports of where the connections go are wacky, but should I assume the compartment will look like this?:
I’m a bit confused about how theater connections play with the rest of the arrangement
is this a xP + xP pack in the middle with the outer NESE’s being 2sxp’s?
edit: just noticed I labeled the positive and negatives wrong, fixing now
Yes, middle pack is 3P + 3P, and all other packs are 2s3P.
Hmm, if your renders are correct ( I don’t have the deck on me ), then maybe I won’t be able to get away with simple 90degree bends of the original buses. Might need to get custom ones
Related: Can’t wait to see the new 21700 NESE modules, I think I might be able to fit a 12s2p instead, which would give me a sliver more of range, but more importantly, higher voltage 
Awesome that’s the size of the NESE packs in the render with the bolts on.
Edit: I was wrong, the render above was for 2s2p’s and 2p + 2p’s
The Positive and Negative Terminals aren’t in the right locations. Once Shapr3d approves my Education License , I’ll import the real module’s or fix the location. If you can measure the arraignment from the end to end I can tell you if it lints and if the 90 Degree is possible (or at the very least the distance from the positive to the the negative.
I can measure for you , are you using the same layout?
For the Terminal touching the middle part are you not going to put a screw on it ? What about the outer Terminals?
1 Like
Yes, terminals touching the middle get nothing. Outer terminals all have screws.The outer terminals closest to the middle are used for the balance wires.
I figure if the bends aren’t possible like I showed in my pic, then I’ll just rotate the bus piece by 180 degrees. Won’t be as compact though. Or maybe the 21700 12s2p modules will fit better with this weird configuration 
Another layout (that I know fits), is ||||_
and then you would place the ESC sideways, and BMS on the slope part of the enclosure.
