This model is based on the original Ham Chest Design from SwiftyTheFox. Thanks for sharing!

Since the FTM-300 has a slightly different housing than the FTM-400, the original mounting plate does not fit. With the modification the transceiver is now located 8mm to 10mm away from the case wall to improve the air flow around the transceiver.  Here, some foam is required to stabilize the transceiver. I used 10mm thick soft rubber peaces. As shown on the pictures it is still enough room to store not only the display but also the microphone. 

Besides the transceiver mount you also need to print the modified side plates since the spreader bar has to be a little bit higher than for the FTM-400. All other parts can be reused from the original Ham Chest Design.
