I've been using my 6" Fowler Digital Caliper (SKU: 541000002) without the battery cover for 2+ years. Finally I decided that I should get a replacement battery cover. 

 

…it cost $55! For only a tiny 1-gram piece of plastic. 

 

I don't want to pay that again if I happen to lose the battery cover again, so I reversed engineered the Caliper Battery Cover B1. It was a tricky process and it's not 100% perfect, but it works.

If you need to tweak or adjust it, you can access my source CAD file via OnShape: Fowler Caliper Battery Cover B1.

 

Printing & Supports

Print with the bottom of the model on the bed. You will need supports, but it only adds a couple minutes to the print. The .3mf file includes the custom hand-painted supports that I used.
