Replace the face housing for your round hygrometer.

 

I accidently ordered the wrong color hygrometer. Since I didnt want to order a new one just for the color, I decided to learn a little but of 3d modeling in OnShape and reconstruct the front housing. Now I am sharing with all you good people!

This is my very first attempt at 3d modeling. I taught myself enough to do this. If you have any recommendations or suggestions, please feel free to let me know.

This should be a direct drop-in replacement for the standard round hygrometer (offset side cliips) bought just about everywhere. I dont suspect there are many variations (other than offset side clips vs vertical side clips), but if you happen to have one, let me know.
I think this one actually fits a littler better than the original. It will be flush with the face of most dry pods for the AMS. I use this one (https://makerworld.com/en/models/83952#profileId-89742) and it looks great!

Notes:

  1. Its not really possible to have the chamfer on the top. Printing in either orientation gives a terrible result so I went with a flat face. I think this looks better as its flush with many cases. 
  2. This is for the round hygrometer with the offset side clips. This may work for the version with the vertical clips, but I dont have one to test.
  3. My tests prints were printed with PLA but should print with any filament type and any build plate.
  4. Ignore the swirling on the ones I printed on my  PET Diamond plate. Not sure why its doing that. But its a problem on my end.
  5. 100% infill
  6. 5.94g
  7. No supports needed!
  8. Attached pdf gives quick instructions how to replace the old model with the new.
