Catching up on finalizing and listing some of my design/product ideas -- this one has been in the queue for some time. A static setup like this can make capturing QR frames with your laptop a breeze. 🧑 https://btc-hardware-solutions.square.site/product/adjustable-overhead-webcam/NEQROQAZVSY73FH73TZY4QKQ

I've been working on this for the last several days; it is easily my favorite signer enclosure of the ones I've created in terms of the aesthetics, the form factor, and the usability of the controls. Read on if you'd like a little "inside baseball" on this design. πŸ‘‡ I heavily borrowed from the compact "Push Case" that kayth21 shared in the github repo (https://github.com/SeedSigner/seedsigner/tree/dev/enclosures/pushcase) and of course have to credit for the idea to incorporate Nintendo-themed design elements (Black Coffee created a similar design a few years ago that was available for purchase for a brief period of time, and is still frequently asked about). Kayth really refined the idea of a fixed-position thumbstick topper in his push case design, as well as masterfully handled board spacing and the microSD card port. His button design is also very clever, with the lower button covers fitting around the circuit board buttons. Because of the fine tolerances between the components, I had to make some adjustments for the parts to render properly on my printers, and also modified his clamshell-style assembly to work with my drop-in approach. The DPAD topper works surprisingly quite well, especially for an FDM-printed part. The right button stack are snug with hardly any play. The memory card can no longer get lost inside the enclosure and can still be grasped with your fingers for removal. And Kayth's handling of the camera holds it perfectly centered in its respective port. This is also the first time I've offered a protective case with a printed-signer, and the grey/red color combo makes for a great initial presentation. I'll eventually also be offering a non-themed version in different colors but wanted to get this one out there immediately because it made me think of Christmas mornings when I was a kid. I was 8 years old when the original 8-bit Nintendo became available in the states, and spent many hours at a friend's house in front of a huge console TV playing the original Super Mario Brothers, before getting a system of my own a year or so later. Designers inevitably leave little bits of themselves in their work, and I'm particularly proud of this model. β€οΈπŸ©ΆπŸ–€ You can find this signer available for purchase in my store at https://btc-hardware-solutions.square.site/product/retro-gaming-themed-signer/I2OO557NA4S6CEKEJ57SXLC2
