[Wireless Room Temperature Monitoring System] Enclosure for wireless temperature sensor 3D Modeling with 123D Design

Now that the components are all designed in 3D i can try an design the enclosure.

I tried to take into account the way the elements are going together, how the cables are connecting the components and all. I am not even sure this could be 3D printed. Here is what i intend to send for printing :



What do you think ? Any suggestions ?

[Wireless Room Temperature Monitoring System] Enclosure for wireless temperature sensor 3D Modeling with 123D Design

Alright so now that i have a rough idea of how the enclosure should be i can go ahead and design it in CAD. 123D Design seems perfect and easy to use. As a training exercice I decided to reproduce all the components that are involved in my sensor in 123D Design at the exact correct scale. This way i will be able to design the enclosure to take into account. First i took exact measurement of each of the 5 main components that are involved in the sensor.

Here is how it looks :




What do you think ?  Any advice ?

If anyone is interested for their own CAD design (and if you use the same components as me ...) please contact me and i will give you the .stl file

Next, i will make the enclosure using those components to make sure that everything fits together
