Summary
This is a design for a 3d printable case for the HF Signals sBITX. Hams that have just purchased the single motherboard might find this design useful. To print it, you will need a 3d printer with at least 270mm x 170mm bed. If you do not have such a large printer, there are multiple 3d printing services that can print it for you. Unfortunately, I do not offer such a service.
I printed in petg. With 50% infil, it will take approximately 8-10 hours to print all the pieces. I did not need to use any supports (although some screw holes came out somewhat oval...)
3mm screws are used everywhere. Depending on your printer, you may need to pre-tap some of the holes.
This was designed using Fusion 360. My thanks go out to Mike - KW1ND that provided the base design from which I started. It would have been much more difficult to have started from scratch. The Fusion 360 archive file is provided in the Bitx-case-3d-printer-files folder. You will find the ready to print stl files there too.
I have attached a pdf file with assembly instructions. The most recent version of this file will be maintained on my github: sBitx-v3-case/README.md
This speaker from Amazon (and many other places) fits well in this model:

Also, the latest version includes support for Bob KD8CGH's tilting legs. The link for this work is:
