PDuino's power supply is now prototyped in TinkerCAD in 3D, which is helpful when designing the enclosure and testing for interference between the components.



The combined power supply and Arduino enclosure is also prototyped, despite some loss of progress due to TinkerCAD crashes, and the power supply fits nicely (upside down) over the top of the Arduino.  I had a nice transparent cut-away view but that's when TinkerCAD crashed (again).


Progress continues on the display enclosure as well, but a lot of work remains to be done there as it's the most visible piece.  This will most likely be a real "prototyping" approach using physical models for fit and finish.

All of the 3D models are shared on TinkerCAD, search for "PDuino", or use the Convenient Links I added on the right side of the blog, which will be updated to always point to the latest revision of design files for the project.
