Shoulder mount case for T-Display DIY GPS.  End unit is about 3 times smaller than the Epaper version.

Instructions how to make the electronic side at https://github.com/RP6conrad/T_display/blob/main/README.md?utm_source=seabreeze.com.au

This case uses a 1000mAhr 80 30 40 battery (Dims 8mm x 30mm x 40mm) which gives about 9hr run time with display on and fresh battery.   Haven't tested longevity with display off whilst moving.

The USB C charge mat needs to be trimmed around the coil to remove excess material in order to fit the case.  The USB C plug top edge from charge mat also needs to be filed flush in order to fit the clear screen.  Hopefully pictures explain.

I used 2mm PETG plastic for the clear display which was purchased from Kmart https://www.kmart.com.au/product/small-and-narrow-clear-drawer-42437574/

The strap rods are 2mm carbon.   The strap is 38mm which can be purchased at Aliexpress https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006112175102.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.17.5bae18021z8ULQ

Spray the outside of the main 3print with clear coat (this stops the epoxy weeping whilst it cures).  Once all tested, fill with potting epoxy to make waterproof. This the stuff I use (picture attached if link expires) https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/402568052077?_skw=potting+epoxy&itmmeta=01J8BYTP6FFNBG6YYJD3A7D467&hash=item5dbaecfd6d:g:ZTIAAOSw8n9hVlOs&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8HoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKnLuKtiPTo5vRT2RzgDUFVqReV1lZVGWLebND8Cw4LRZV8skRBdJ2%2FLXvJ9w9pbRW7BxM5wQvwsh0SHYQVz%2BXLdJ4sH%2FKqrVtuM%2FnS5OOdYQFaNPisW3IzMAkmbm75W--QtECCyKMZK%2B413dCbNlMf6I9b5Aq2bZ91Bgxeql6p9RmT40%2FgmKbr%2F067cTFv4stQ%2Bn4AxnTt68F8K4e22aeTCN18qOU1RDh3epgkMADP1nZoKxdYBbYp8xal6zmpBnQ%2BMHvEtSPoxGPOB4LwNrdK%2FO%2BSYw2cnqUOyo%2FqLPW3x7g%3D%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR7jj6v7CZA
