3D printing to create a mouse shell? (4 comments)

( Forum: HW)

Posted by n1ghtfly @ 16:26 CST, 18 January 2015 - iMsg

Just wondered if anyone has tried to make their own mouse shell using a 3d printer.

I was considering buying an aurora to use for the insides. I can't really figure out how to make buttons for mine.

Any thoughts on how to form buttons?

Also can anyone recommend a good 3d printing company? Doesn't matter where as long as I can have stuff shipped to the uk.

I never tried this myself so I can't really tell how good the end-product will be. It might not be the cheapest alternative either, but if you can spend a little extra and are curious you can always give it a go.

Also it has a my little pony tab on the frontpage, so now I want a pony with a rocket launcher
