[Coco] ROM Options for Glenside IDE, and a 3D-Printed Case

[Bill Pierce]

Mark, the two things I noticed when I first viewed your design for the Glenside IDE case when you first posted them...

1. Why such a small opening around the first header? My card came with only one header installed (the first) so with your design, I couldn't use it for my fd-502 controller.

2. Is there a support underneath for the far end of the cart? With no support, this thing gets heavy and I'm afraid it will crack the board or something (Ed's MPI case has such a support).

I just uploaded them to Thingiverse:http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1763771The design has some minor issues that other users may wish to address, so I included the STEP files in addition to the STL files.I have plans to make a new CF card based version of the Glenside design with built-in ROM, to fit in the red SuperPak cases. I don't know how long it'll be until that one is available, but it's next on my list after completing my EEPROM pak design.-- Mark J.
