A form-fitting snap together case for the Heltec v3 meshtastic radio with OLED display that fits a makerfocus 3000mAh battery nicely.  It's a close fit, so take your time putting it together.  I tried to adjust some tolerances to make it a little more forgiving as I cracked the display the first time I was putting it together.  The antenna wire routing slot helps with that since you don't need to run it around underneath the board.  A thumbnail or guitar pick or other small spudger-type device is best for getting it open when needed.

Model origin

The author remixed this model.

Differences of the remix compared to the original

Upsized the overall case for the larger battery, added a slot to manage excess coax for the external antenna pigtail, added attached flexible buttons, a tiny window for the LEDs, and a recess that will hold some 3rd party GPS modules you can attach.
