Meshtastic Case

Designed a case and lid in Onshape for a Seeed XIAO ESP32-S3 with the Wio SX1262 expansion board, portable Meshtastic node. Went through several iterations before getting it down to an acceptable version.

  • When using RhinoCeros always remember to esc/enter/space out
  • Use shortcuts learned
