I 3d printed your case for the Alpha 28 key keyboard, and it doesn't fit.

This is the 3rd one I've printed with no success. Am I supposed to scale it up or what? Do you know where more case designs are, I'm out I've tried all the ones I could find?

What exactly doesn't fit? Have you checked the model in Fusion 360 to verify the scale is correct?

No I have not, how would I even do that. I assumed it would fit, bc are not all alpha boards the same? Like where would i find the file for alpha pcb to check @ramonimbao

The Fusion 360 source file is provided. Anyway, not sure exactly what you mean by "doesn't fit".

Well yeah it won't fit because it was made for handwiring. It's also in the repo name.

It’s just to big to fit in the case. Can you lead me to the file ur talking about. I cannot find it anywhere on his GitHub. I’ve had this pcb over a year now I just wanna build it tired of seeing it sit around. @ramonimbao

The Fusion 360 source file is in the Fusion360 folder of this repo. You can have a go at modifying the model itself so a PCB can fit rather than for handwiring.

I saw where it was made for hand wiring, but that should not have anything to do with the pcb fitting? I don’t have the controller or any diodes on it yet

I scaled the old one I had made of wood to 102% abs 103.5% just to see if they print. I’m going to try to scale yours with that file also I have a lot of printers so will know if it worked in the morning. @ramonimbao
