Printing Notes: PLA, 50% Infill, Normal Support for all pieces. I used Tree Support for buttons.
Carefully remove all support after printing. May need to use hobby knife to get it exact. Sand all surface pieces for a smoother look. I used 120 grit with an orbital sander, and then 240 grit to finish.
Connection between the two parts uses two M3x6mm threaded inserts mounted in the body, then just screw a M3 bolt when complete.
There are two columns to glue ¼" SAE washers on the body for a little extra weight. The original mouse is a heavy ~180 grams! To add the washers, simply glue with super glue. I use JB Super Weld.
Mount the electronics board from the Logitech B100 - discard the mouse wheel mechanics because they will not be used. Insert the back of the board under the two rear clips, and then press firmly down into the front clip. The fit will be snug and may require a slight bit of wiggling and force.
Mount the buttons by first inserting the tail of the button into the rear clip on the body and then wiggling the buttons into position. Next, snap the tail down (may require some force), and then push the front lip of the button down into position. This took many iterations to design and test! Here's a video of mounting:
Press it in firmly, but if the PLA fractures, a new one will need to be printed.
If pressing the button doesn't work, check that the circuit board is inserted completely - it should be snapped into the front clip. Next, make sure that the buttons are completely inserted - they may also need to be snapped in. If it still seems like the button is not able to activate the switch if it's too close, try removing a few layers off the top of the switch contact on the button. Use a hobby knife or Dremel sander - but careful not to take too much.
