Hey all,
Over a YEAR ago, @tllim was kind enough to supply me with the files I needed to get to messing around with a cluster case/extension idea I had.
Its taken me a year to get my skills up in Blender (not the best tool? But the tool I wanted to use) so I could modify the plan and build an "insert" or "extension" that would clip inbetween the top and bottom of the playbox enclosure.
This would allow me to stack 5 nodes, include a touchscreen at the top, and theres just enough space for a USB hub for power, and a switch.
I've made some progress, so I'm posting what I have, and would love some advice on what I should do about the NIC/HDMI port holes on the side of the "sleeve" that I am building.
Some images for reference included.
The end setup should look similar to this, with the sleeve filling the gap between the bottom and the top:
So far, I have managed to create the following in blender (length of sleeve to be adjusted), but I'm having trouble with what I should do about the NIC and HDMI holes..
