Novatouch w/ Aluminum Case??
« on: Mon, 15 June 2015, 09:38:05 »
Fellow Geekhackers,

Does anyone know if there's an aluminum case that would fit the Novatouch? I saw this on Massdrop and thought it'd be really interesting if it did:

I saw where someone modded their Novatouch to fit into a Filco style case... but that required a lot of work from the looks of it. Maybe this one from Massdrop would work better?

Any thoughts from Novatouch owners?

I wonder what the standoff spacing looks like on a Novatouch? Does anyone have measurments or even a picture of the back of the PCB?

Don't have my Novatouch anymore, but I've opened it like 20 times. don't think it will fit. Most notably the USB connector is in a different spot.
