Help With CAD and STL File

[jackking123]

OK I am begging for free CAD service. I use to drive 3D CAD software at work a long time ago. I have 2D CAD (dxf).
Does anyone want to draft this up for me? If interested PM. I just need the STL file. I have access to a 3D printer.
Dimensions published are slightly different (tolerance). The hand written dimensions are measured off unit.

I just sent you something. Let me know if that works.

I also am periodically in search of someone that can do a little bit of CAD work for me. If any folks are willing to do that once in a while, please PM me, or post here so others can see.

I'm more than happy to help with things from time to time.

Same here, I do Solidworks for my job, and I'm always willing to help others get their planes flying.

You folks are awesome, BTW. The offers of help are really nice to see.
Yeah, you big guy.

Hey EVERYONE... Thank you so much. Success topgun4008 aka Jonathan got me a STL. Made the part. Two holes (per my instructions) were misallocated but easy to drill PETG. It was also a tight net fit. A little sandpaper to the rescue and Dremel sanding drum. I need to remember with instruments a little clearance is good not net fit. Also sheet metal of avionics is not always high tolerance. Thanks Jonathan. I think this is a keeper, might make another with tweaks in hole locations and looser clearances.

Black filament might be nice but don't have. You can prime and paint PETG apparently. With sanding, two coats prime and paint, finish will be excellent verses the bare 3D part finish. Although the as printed part finish is pretty dang good. My first 3D part and it's a practical thing I can use. Took an hour to print. This will get the back of EIS a tad more clearance from the center stiffener behind panel (slider) and make it look like the stack (Garmin GPS and ICOM radio) when painted black.

Glad it all worked out!

If you do end up wanting to print another one, let me know and we can make the needed edits to the STL file.

That print looks like it turned out fantastic!
