Many users of MessagePad 2000 and 2100s have a very small selection of vendors selling official AA battery trays. The intent of this project is to bring a low-cost, 3D-printable version of the scarce part.
To access the latest release of this project, please visit the official project page.
The 3D models in this package are in Autodesk Inventor 2011 and industry-standard STL file formats.
These files can be printed with (mostly) any rapid prototype machine/3D printer. Follow the instructions included with your printer for uploading the 3D models.
-
Printing this part radially (instead of axially) can dramatically improve the part's quality. When printed axially, the outer dimensions are slightly off, and very jagged.
-
Using a printer that can print with a 0.2mm resolution will greatly improve the fit.
