ZSA Navigator Thumb Shell (Voyager)

Move your Navigator trackball to your thumb! 

Please see our blog post for detailed instructions and videos on repurposing the magnets of the Navigator and the Voyager tenting legs for this project. 

This project includes a number of files to choose from depending on your desired setup. There are multiple different shells depending on how you want to mount the board and matching reverse wedges to give the opposite side of the board the same tenting angle. 

If you plan to use the Navigator on your desk
You have two recommended options: 

1. Choose two prints without magnets at all.

2. Choose the Navigator magnet version of the thumb shell you want, then the Voyager magnet version of the opposite-side wedge. For example, Navigator-Voyager-Thumb-Shell-Right and Navigator-Voyager-Wedge-Left-V-Magnet

The prints without magnets are self explanatory. Just line up the mounting holes with the underside of your Voyager and you're good to go. This setup works if you don't plan to move your board around much and don't want to fiddle with magnets. 

The mixed magnet prints use the default Navigator magnet and two of the default Voyager leg magnets to attach the prints to your Voyager. 

If you plan to use this shell with a tripod mount
I have updated the files to include left and right versions that are specifically compatible with the tripod mount, so you can just print this for the side you want the Navigator on. They change the angle of the core very slightly to get everything to fit but are otherwise the same. Note that you will need to install the magnets before plugging in any cables with this design.
