I designed a simple three-part 3D printed enclosure for the Adafruit PowerBoost 1000C and up to a 1200mAh LiPo. In this post I share the print files, component list, and step-by-step assembly tips to convert the board into a safe portable power pack — please read on if you'd like to build one.

I ran into unexpected problems testing the fill-sensor panel: light was travelling through the printed turntable and confusing one sensor. I walk through how I diagnosed the issue, which fixes failed, and two practical approaches I’m testing — read on for the full troubleshooting and print updates.

I'll walk you step-by-step through printing the mechanical parts of a fully functional, programmable cat/pet feeder. I share STL files, material and printer recommendations, and parts lists — all open-source on GitHub. If you have a 3D printer and want a challenging build, read the full post to get started.

I've been reorganising my lab and designed stackable organiser boxes optimised for fast 3D printing. They use a 60×60mm raster, stabilising walls, dual label slots and rail grids. I offer a free STL subset and explain print settings—read the full post for downloads and the complete shop set.
