New casing for future Homebrew Games edited on cartridge?

Sorry for this long title :)

I have an idea: I can model the casing of a Creativison cartridge. I can generate STL files of each part and try to make a 3D printing.
do you think it can help the Creativison community to edit the world wide first homebrew for this cool system?
Just let me know, I probably can make tries this spring, probably in may/june.

Well I have modeled a 3D cartridge already so if anyone needs plastic shells, I would provide the 3D model done already.

My opinion is that a plastic casing wouldn't be vey helpful in selling homebrew games. There's a lack of programmers, not of plastic cases, unfortunately. :(

I think it would be a nice Project rebuilding the cart casings, you could even insert the soon to be released CSL Cart into one of These (if you like)... ;0)
I still haven't found another (cheaper or even Fitting) solution.

Yeah, I think I could use one of those. :lol:

I'm assuming it would fit the models with the elongated screw holes just fine.

Also interested in these, especially if they're available as a 3D model we can print ourselves.
(Was about to start work making my own model in OpenSCAD)

Due to Corona, the cartridge casings - project is resting at the moment, but i will keep you all updated, when things are in motion again :0)

I got bored waiting, so I designed one up in OpenSCAD.
This has NOT yet been tested (I don't actually own a 3D printer) so it'll probably need some more work...
Grab it here
I hereby release this under Creative Commons BY-SA which means you can even sell these if you print your own, as long as you attribute them to me :-)
Edit: Just updated to a slightly tweaked version with a paramater allowing you to stretch them.
