For this you will need an assembled Niftymitter v0.24 PCB, switch and the lasercut nets for the circuit box, battery tray and sleeve components.
- Housing layouts v0.24 [.svg]
- The layouts are designed to be laser cut and engraved, or cut and scored by hand. They are designed for ~1mm cardboard and can be assembled by folding and gluing with a quick drying adhesive such as UHU.
Tools:
Soldering kit, fast drying adhesive (UHU), a small insulated screwdriver or trim tool.

Signing UpStep 1Fold the circuit box into shape and glue.
Get your assembled board and make sure the two 103 capacitors are nice and flat to accommodate the switch as describe in fig1.
Make all folds on the cardboard net to loosen things up and place circuit board upside down as shown against the main tab of the box (fig4).
Apply tow little blobs of glue and glue to close the box, holding firm until the glue is dry.
While doing this you can make sure the circuit board is flush against the side marked 'PCB underside' and close the end that the line in socket sticks through (fig8). This will help to locate the circuit board - it helps to push from the other side to encourage the socket through the hole (fig9).
When you are sure the glue is dry, close the switch end. make sure the PP3 black wire and the ground wire from the board are sticking through the hole with as much slack as possible (fig 10 and 11).
The end flaps are re-openable with care. The main glued tab will pull apart with force if required, but is generally not yet designed to be undone.

I'm not able to print them in a "standard" scale.
The circuit board layout should be 52mm x 23mm, while the layout of the sleeve part, for example, should be 62mm x 168mm
Excuse me for the question but the program I use to open the files is really bad.
When I finish to assemble it I will send you a message again saying how is working. ;)
