[Serious] 3D Printed Enclosure Thread

MakerX 2G300 Rear Top Esc Box

After spending tons of time on Amazon looking for the right box I ultimately came up empty handed. The one box I tried was too wide and had wheel/spur gear bite. Used this as opportunity to improve my CAD skills. I plan on placing a beam of silicone along the crack as an attempt to make more waterproof. This design works with duality 240mm hangers. Lastly you have to angle the esc slightly into the box but other than that I’d say it fits well.

I don’t have the anti sink file I used to sandwich the aluminum plate between deck.

Hardware

4- M5 60mm screws for mounting aluminum plate to deck and trucks
Metric socket button head, Stainless steel 18-8 (A-2), 5mm x 0.8mm x 60mm

4- M4 100mm screws for mounting esc through case and aluminum plate
Metric socket cap, Class 12.9 alloy steel black oxide finish, 4mm x 0.7mm x 100mm

Then of course 4- M4 and 4- M5 hex nylon insert lock nuts

Used a few extra spacers I had laying around to lift aluminum plate off the deck some to allow space for the hex lock nuts.
