notes about an enclosure for the Maraki Sparky
first pass
A sketchup drawing. There is a ruby plugin that provides an option to export a sketchup drawing as an STL file.
The idea is for an enclosure that has a slot on the inner sides into which the Meraki Sparky PCB can slide. Then there might be a single screw that can be inserted from the bottom in order to keep the PCB from sliding out. Next design should have:
- the standoff extending from the top, but short enough to clear the PCB components
- the slide-in slots should be near the bottom of the box
- the opening should have a curved front to accommodate the angled ethernet/power connections
- the back should have a mounting hole for the antenna
