Intro
I wanted a slimline protection frame / side rails for my Xiegu G90 but could not find any suitable ones on the internet. So I set about measuring up and creating my own.
Design Principles
Slimline - not take up too much space, but still protect the radio when being transported / used in the shack or in the field.
Small enough to fit on the printbed in one go.
Simple enough to print without supports.
Have small foldout legs to raise the front of the radio.
The Design
After a few iterations and adjustments of the holes, this is what I came up with:
Roughly 260mm(L) x 140mm(W) x 65mm(H)
Foldout feet roughly 50mm height and tucks in underneath the radio
The frame is basically 8mmx8mm square.
The parts are:
Left Frame, Right Frame, and Legs.
4 x M3x12mm machine screws for the frame
2 x M3x16mm
4 x M3 washers
2 x M3 Nylock Nuts for the legs
Printing
I printed in PETG with 20% Gyroid infill and 3 perimeters for a bit of strength.
Each one of the side took about 3 hours on my old Prusa MK3S+
I hope this helps other G90 owners - enjoy
