A robust adaptable case for the M5CAM that currently takes an 18650 or 18500 (18500 pictured) cell.

6 bolts connecting rear to front are short M2.5.

Still a work in progress, I will be adding a base section and perhaps a front section to hold a microscope slide to seal the lens for rain protection.

I am not sure if heat is going to be an issue so may have to add vents, button works well, USB and grove connector fully exposed and the square holes are to run some cables soldered to the battery connections large enough to run dupont pins through.

Small 1mm hole on front exposes the pcb LED

I did not have a 2.5mm tap so just tapered the top of the hole slightly with a small phillips head screwdriver and 2.5 bolts screwed in fairly easily.

There are holes designed for 3mm bolts on the side not yet utilised, will be building a rear cover and tilt base for those.

designspark mechanical model file for all 3 parts is there (.rsdoc) and a screenshot showing the file contents.
